United States -(AmmoLand.com)- We gun owners get so called “facts” shoved in our faces by liberal media.
We work hard to highlight and control many factors in order to maximize accuracy of “the facts”, and then we find the truth within the facts – stark, unforgiving, and unchangeable. We set these fact bullets onto a path and they tell us their truths.
Likewise for Donald J Trump. Trump grew up on his father’s building jobs. If the bricks were placed crookedly, the building would be crooked. If the solder connection failed, pipes would leak water and sewage.
There were many paths to building failure – many ways to see truths in shoddy work.
Trump is not a lawyer, politician or journalist whose words are easily changed as need arises. He learned to see a truth, as we see it. That truth is real, testable and sometimes harsh.
Our greedy establishment politicians have sold out our country to the highest bidder with the promise that our country and our people would benefit. The truth is out and that fact remains. We are in debt with nothing to show for the 20+ trillion that we owe. Our children are ignorant and not competitive with children elsewhere. Our infrastructure is a disgrace.
Our jobs are missing. Hard working Patriots created those skills or techniques for those jobs and yet those jobs have been outsourced away like too much penny candy at the end of a party. Our empty factories have overgrown yards and broken fences, and are a daily reminder of former wealth of our American manufacturing expertise. That’s a very visual truth, if only one would care to look.
Our armies are weak, foolishly used by our corrupt establishment politicians for some philosophical dream that is not firmly planted in the reality of American sovereignty and strength. And our vets have been abandoned to the incompetence and corruption of a failed bureaucracy. There is much truth in their untimely deaths.
The gift of freedom’s vision from our Founding Fathers has been trashed by masses of illegal immigrants that were not invited. They do not or cannot understand the responsibilities required to maintain the Bill of Rights. Even worse, our own home grown left-wing liberals consider violence to be a First Amendment right and our Second Amendment to be an impediment to their desire for the concentration of weapons in the hands of criminals and government officials.
We, the authors, were* long-term New Yonkers. We never heard that Trump left chaos behind him because he did not. His former wives were taken care of. He was never racist nor misogynistic nor anti-Semitic. He was often talked about in the New York rags. But all of the incredible personal attacks on Trump only started recently, when the establishment and the media realized that they might lose their power, which was amassed over the decades. [and all those attacks have proven unfounded, none have held water]
Suddenly, Trump is characterized as an insane demagogue who is eager to use atomic weapons against our allies. This is total BS. The media and the political establishment are creating lies, which are designed to frighten you and to change your vote. The lies told by the media, about us and our guns, has been turned loose upon Trump.
What is true is that his speech might sound harsh to one not from New York City, and the phrases, “believe me” or “trust me” may echo strangely to you. And while the phrases might sound false or disingenuous, you have to bare in mind that it’s how people speak from New York City.
But his speech does reflect his truths. He wants to make America ‘great again.‘ We want, and need, him to do that. Our truth is that we are terrified that we are on a tipping point to be sliding to a new kind of America. We can’t wait for the perfect polite, soft-spoken hero. Such a person does not exist.
Trump does exist! And he’s a fighter and survivor.
If Trump wins, we may see civil unrest in the streets of our cities. If Trump loses, we will see civil unrest spreading throughout our nation. We will see freedom floundering on the rocks of moral, ethical and financial bankruptcy. We will see China and the east rising as the new Oligarchs of the globe.
His Presidential loss will make ‘Freedom‘ a whispered word, while our progeny wait centuries during dark times – waiting for a new hero to show them the bloody path they must trod if they still value truth and freedom.
It is truly a fight that we MUST win, and win this November.
