I've got this cued up in the cd changer, ready to play when Trump wins:


I was young at the time, but it sure feels like 1979 Jimmy Carter America right now. And while I have disagreed with Cyber in the past, he is so dead on, on this, it's scary.

You Trump critics are Hillary supporters. You can claim all you want that Trump isn't fit to be President--but you think that Hillary is. Oh, come on! Anyone with half a brain knows she rigs elections (already proven), breaks the law, and will take Obama's policies ever further. You think that Obama makes Executive Orders to bypass Congress? You ain't seen nothing yet.

"If you don't vote for Trump, that's a vote for Hillary." Explain to me how that isn't true for you. Who other than Trump and Hillary has a chance to win? Why don't you just come out of the closet and say you want Hillary to be elected?

Craig is a prime example of this: He says, "I'm in the "they're-both-equally-awful" crowd, so if either wins, I don't see it as a good thing. But a problem without a solution isn't really a problem, it's a fact; so I'm not going to wreck my life over it one way or another. I'm going to vote for the best candidate, and keep doing what I know how to do to make a living and have fun when I can. ...and I'm going to continue to point out the most obvious thing...he ain't gonna win..."

So you're going to, "[K]eep doing what I know how to do to make a living and have fun when I can." Wanna bet? Hillary will take away so many of your rights that you won't be "living" anymore: No guns, hundreds of thousands of Muslims in the Country, unlimited illegal Mexican immigrants in the Country, being taught to "Love Muslims as a peaceful people", keeping Muslim violence against us muted by the media, selling this Country's money and influence to the highest bidder to benefit the Clinton Foundation, and an absolute disregard of this Country's budget deficit with no plan to reduce it.

I understand that debate is helpful in most issues. This isn't one of those occasions. This is our absolute last chance to survive as a Country.

For a lawyer, you don't seem to have much confidence in Constitutional law, etc. No one person is going to take away our rights, even a President.

This is kind of amusing, how this group of seemingly otherwise rational people, have put all their faith and hope into a fired game show host...

Relax...life's too short...Billary's going to win, she's going to accomplish nothing, and we'll try again in four years, and hopefully nominate someone worthy of the Office...

Yet you haven't seen our president, as one person, take away a few of our constitutional rights?

Ok. Here it is from a .Gov employee. What can a President do that affects your life ? Well, in my instance- from a Dept. of Commerce employee, I get weekly reports about what our Dept. head is doing. Penny Pritzer is overseas begging other companies to buy US companies and employ US citizens. Her latest countries have been India, Africa, and Cuba. So our leading Commerce advocate is wanting US people to work for other countries AKA Toyota, Honda, BMW etc ....

Go ahead, think that a President won't affect you. It's all about their cabinet. You have to have people that will turn your vision into actions. Buy into the rhetoric. Even if Trump wins, there is a HUGE contingency of DC liberals that will thwart him implementation. Bet on it.

ANYONE who doesn't vote for him, helps elect the most evil, arrogant, far left liberal since BHO. 8 years of that slimeball is enough.

Who gets elected is only the start. The iceberg under the water is the mass of people they appoint and all the commissions, cabinets, departments, and boards that have un-elected and unaccountable bureaucrats slowly gnawing at the foundation of America.

OK, one more time. Four years from now, if Hillary wins, two things will have happened.

1. Three or four Supreme Court justices will have been installed by Hillary, possibly with a democrat majority senate. Meaning...very very liberal justices.

2. Amnesty for 11-30 million illegals, who will be able to vote. And a wide open border for ever.

Those two things, as we've been patiently trying to tell you, means you can nominate the absolutely perfect (as if that exists) conservative constitutionalist candidate, who is a truly marvelous speaker, looks great on camera, and is smart as a whip. And they will have zero chance of winning.

So it sounds to me like you are just mad that the current (R) candidate isn't Glenn Beck approved or something.

And on to how Hillary takes away your rights. With the Court packed to the gills with not just 8 years of Obama appointees but 8 more years of Clinton appointees, from the Federal courts on up to the SC, you better believe you'll see Heller overturned (what gives us the ability to have concealed carry at the very least) and you'll see the 1st Amendment eviscerated to keep "bad media" from harming tender ears.

This isn't some wild crazy outlandish prediction. This is 100% for sure what will happen. And guess what? I'm going to blame not just the idiot Democrat voters, but also all those who just couldn't bring themselves to pull the lever for Trump because Principles.

Please allow me to enlarge on something you said: It's not just 8 more years of Clinton Court appointees...the average tenure of a SC appointee is 25 years. That's the rest of our lifetime for many.

In order:

Hillary can't "install" a SC judge, Congress has to approve them.

The most Liberal immigration proposal does not make them U.S. citizens, they won't be able to vote (legally); I don't know where you're getting 30M. The numbers are currently shrinking because our economy sucks.

I don't listen to Beck or Hannity or Limbaugh or any of the other mowthz...but I suspect you do.

Nothing is 100% sure, even my expectation that Trump will lose hyuge isn't 100% sure...

Blame me? Fine. My state will likely send all it's delegates his way whether I vote for him or not; won't matter, he'll not pick up any states that Romney didn't, and that's a loss. I blame you. Hillary was the most beatable candidate since McGovern; and you Trumpsters wanted to make your point that you hate politicians...great, you've made your point; welcome douche-bag Clinton number two to the Whitehouse...100% inevitable? I don't see how it isn't.

That's my opinion, we welcome yours...
