Trump and the Emasculated Voter

There’s only one way to protect the nation from

Hillary Clinton, and that is to vote for Donald Trump.

By DAVID GELERNTER

Oct. 14, 2016 6:41 p.m. ET [EMPHASIS IS MINE]

Some conservatives have watched their evaluations of Donald

Trump ’s character drop so low in recent days that on this vital

question they no longer see a choice between Donald Trump

and Hillary Clinton. Accordingly, they are forced back onto

politics and policy; and naturally Mr. Trump wins in a walk. If

conservatives who argue that Mr. Trump is worse than Mrs.

Clinton had a case, it would be a relief to vote for Mrs. Clinton or for no one.

But they don’t, and one is therefore forced for the good of the nation to vote for Mr. Trump.

In his Mr. Nauseating video of last weekend, Mr. Trump showed

us that he had all the class and cool of a misbegotten 12-year told boy.

Yet the video taught us nothing; no one had ever mistaken him for anything but an infantile vulgarian.

This week’s allegations of actual abuse are different. If these stories are true

(and I don’t know why they shouldn’t be), there is nothing to be

said for Mr. Trump. Unfortunately, there is nothing to be said for

Mrs. Clinton either. If we don’t take both facts into account, we are not morally serious.

Mrs. Clinton has nothing on Mr. Trump when it comes to

character. She lies (“Wipe? Like with a cloth?”—cute and

charming Mrs. C.) the way basketball stars shoot baskets—

constantly, nonstop, because it’s the one thing she is best at

and (naturally) it gives her pleasure to hear herself lie—swish!—right onto the evening news.

And her specialist talent of all is the verbal kick in the groin of a Secret Service man or state

trooper who has the nerve to talk to her as if she were merely human. [See examples later[

She is no mere rock star; she is Hillary the Queen. She

is so big, and you are so small, she can barely even see you

from up there. What are you? A macromolecule?

I’ll vote for Mr. Trump—grimly. But there is no alternative, no shadow of a responsible alternative.

Mr. Trump’s candidacy is a message from the voters. He is the

empty gin bottle they have chosen to toss through the window.

The message begins with the fact that voters hear what the

leaders and pundits don’t: the profound contempt for America

and Americans that Mrs. Clinton and President Obama share

and their frightening lack of emotional connection to this nation

and its people.

Mr. Obama is arch, patronizing, so magnificently weary of

having to explain it all, again and again, to the dummies

surrounding him. Mrs. Clinton has told us proudly how

thoroughly she prepared for the first debate and has prepared

to be president. For her, it is all a matter of learning your lines.

Her whole life has been memorized in advance. Mr. Obama is

at least sincere.

Mrs. Clinton is as phony as a three-dollar bill, as a Clinton Global Initiative.

Mr. Obama has governed like a third-rate tyrant. He’s been a

stern baby sitter to an American public that is increasingly

getting on his nerves. ObamaCare and the Iran treaty are his

big achievements. That the public has always disliked them,

and hates them worse as it knows them better, strikes him as

so unspeakably irrelevant; he doesn’t know whether to laugh or

cry. Do you ask 6-year-olds if they like going to school? Luckily,

a few grown-ups have been set over the public to keep it in line.

Mrs. Clinton couldn’t agree more.

Policy is for smart people, who are people of the left by definition—leftists having scored

all those big successes over the years in foreign policy, race

relations, policing, restarting wounded economies, making

unsecured loans, running school systems and so on. On topics

from Keystone to Guantanamo, Mr. Obama has made it clear

that he doesn’t give a damn what people think—he no longer

even tries to explain to the citizenry. Do your homework!

Understand?

Yes, leadership sometimes requires that you take an unpopular

position and make it popular. We are told that Mr. Obama is

working on his “legacy” instead, as if that makes him farsighted

instead of irresponsible and insanely vain. Presidents are

supposed to run the country, not worry about their reputation in

coming centuries.

Trump voters have noticed that, not just over Mr. Obama’s term

but in recent decades, their own opinions have grown

increasingly irrelevant. It’s something you feel, like encroaching

numbness. Since when has the American public endorsed

affirmative action? Yet it’s a major factor in the lives of every

student and many workers. Since when did we decide that men

and women are interchangeable in hand-to-hand combat on the

front lines? Why do we insist on women in combat but not in the

NFL? Because we take football seriously. That’s no joke; it’s the

sad truth.

Did we invite the federal bureaucracy to take charge of school

bathrooms? I guess I missed that meeting. The schools are

corrupt and the universities rotten to the core, and everyone has

known it since the 1980s. But the Democrats are owned by the

teachers unions, and Republicans have made only small-scale

corrections to a system that needs to be ripped out and carefully disposed of, like poison ivy.

The Emasculated Voter to whom no one pays any attention is

the story of modern democracy. Instead of putting voters in

charge, we tell them they’re in charge, and it’s just as good.

That’s the Establishment’s great discovery in the Lois Lerner

Age.

Enter Mr. Trump. People say he became a star because he just

happened to mention an issue that just happened to catch on.

But immigration is the central issue of our time. Trump voters

zeroed in because they saw what most intellectuals didn’t. What

is our nation and what will it be?

Will America go on being America or turn into something else? That depends on who

lives here—especially given our schools, which no longer

condescend to teach Americanism.

The liberal theory is that, other things being equal, all human

beings have an equal right to settle in America. For liberals this

is too obvious to spell out. But it is also too ludicrous to defend.

Does all mankind have a right to camp in your backyard, eat in

your kitchen, work at your office and borrow your best jogging

outfit? We fail in our duty if we don’t think carefully whom we

want in this country, who would be best for America.

Furthermore, we know that “Congress shall make no law

respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free

exercise thereof.” But that’s got nothing to do with immigration;

freedom of religion means freedom for American citizens—what

else could it possibly mean? We must not tamper with

Americans’ religious life. We must not admit, as possible future

citizens, anyone we don’t choose to; anyone we don’t think will

be good for America. Not to admit Muslims is bad policy but it

does not violate freedom of religion and the American people

have a perfect right to discuss and debate it.

Hold on, some of my fellow conservatives say. Never mind

Hillary. Trump would be dangerous. He would further endanger

our national security and world position. He might start

unnecessary wars. He might even push the nuclear button.

These are important objections, but after thinking them through

I’m unable to take them seriously, either in political terms or

psychological ones.

Mrs. Clinton is right at home in the Oval Office and thinks she

owns it. She holds herself entitled to supreme power, as her

friends are entitled to fancy positions with enormous salaries

and her followers to secure government jobs or ample

government funds, as the case may be.

But forget psychology. Ordinary politics says that Mr. Trump will

not do crazy things or go off half-cocked, because Republicans

in Congress will be eager to impeach him and put Mike Pence

in charge. That was the subtext of the vice-presidential debate,

though Mr. Pence himself (probably) didn’t intend it. When it’s

my turn, you can all relax. Democrats, obviously, will be eager

to help when the task is removing a Republican.

Impeachment is Trump-voters’ ace in the hole. It’s an abnormal

measure, but this is an abnormal year. Impeachment has

temporarily dropped out of sight because of special

circumstances. Republicans impeached Bill Clinton but got

burned in the process; Mr. Obama, as the first black president,

was impeachment-proof. Any other president would have

encountered serious impeachment talk on several occasions,

especially when he ignored Congress and the Constitution and

made his own personal treaty-in-all-but-name with Iran.

But Mr. Trump will not have Mr. Obama’s advantages—to say

the least. Mr. Trump will be impeachment bait. So will Mrs.

Clinton. Even some Democrats have had enough.

Nothing can stop Mr. Trump from shooting off his mouth, but

that’s all right. I want America’s enemies off-balance and

guessing. For eight years it’s been Humiliate America season—

buzz our ships, capture and embarrass our men, murder an

American ambassador—a resoundingly successful attempt to

spit in our faces and tell each one of us to drop dead. Thanks,

Mr. President. Enough is enough. You know that Hillary is

Obama Part III. We can’t let that happen. Parts I and II have

brought us close enough to catastrophe.

That is the problem for those whose integrity or nobility won’t

allow them to vote for Mr. Trump despite their dislike of Mrs.

Clinton.

There is only one way to take part in protecting this nation from Hillary Clinton,

and that is to vote for Donald Trump. A vote for anyone else or for no one might be an honest,

admirable gesture in principle, but we don’t need conscientious

objectors in this war for the country’s international standing and

hence for the safety of the world and the American way of life.

It’s too bad one has to vote for Mr. Trump. It will be an unhappy

moment at best. Some people will feel dirty, or pained, or

outright disgraced.

But when all is said and done, it’s no big deal of a sacrifice for

your country. I can think of bigger ones.

NOW READ WHAT A YOUNG MILLENNIAL WOMAN HAS TO SAY

OCTOBER 11, 2016

A Young Millennial Woman For Trump

by Katie Kieffer

10/10/2016 12:13:00 AM - Katie Kieffer

As a young woman, I will vote for Donald J. Trump for president because he and

his wife Melania have proven themselves presidential in ways Hillary and Bill

Clinton failed.

First things first: a vote for Donald Trump is a vote against Hillary. You need not

personally admire Trump in order to consider him the best option for president in

2016, and thus to vote your conscience.

“Trump recorded having extremely lewd conversation about women in 2005!” the

Washington Post declared last Friday—sharing a three-minute clip wherein

Trump can be heard making loutish, locker room-style comments about the

physical appearance of TV personality Nancy O’Dell and soap opera actress

Adrianne Zucker.

Trump immediately posted a video apology for his words of 11 years ago—

expressing that he is deeply “embarrassed and ashamed”—a sign of sincere sorrow,

as he rarely makes a public confession.

Losers of the 2008, 2012 and 2016 presidential elections—John McCain, Mitt

Romney, Paul Ryan and John Kasich respectively—pounced on the video leak as

an opportunity to ramp up the losing behavior they’ve been engaging in all

throughout the 2016 race: refusing to support the GOP nominee.

“The Republicans, you’ve got to remember, have been running for a long time.

The reason they don’t win is because they don’t stick together,” Trump reminded

voters. “They’re not going to make me quit.”

I watched the Washington Post tape many times. While it’s certainly

disappointing to hear Trump flippantly discuss female body parts—it’s also clear

that he means his comments as a man-to-man joke. Unlike Bill Clinton, Trump

never takes actions to “live up to” his bravado. For example, in the video, he tells

TV personality Billy Bush: “I’ve gotta use some Tic Tacs in case I start kissing her

[as soon as I meet Zucker].” But, when Trump actually meets her, he behaves

formally and professionally.

Trump shakes Zucker’s hand and only briefly hugs her after Bush pressures her to

hug Trump.

We have a choice. I can understand that, as a woman—or as a man who respects

women—it can seem difficult to vote for Trump after hearing his comments. I will

now urge you to remember Hillary’s words—including from Sunday’s presidential

debate—as well as the words of the women she abused.

Gloves Are Off

We know Hillary has a penchant for relying on online videos to arrive at

erroneous conclusions (think the Benghazi terror attack). During Sunday night’s

debate, Hillary relied on the Washington Post’s viral video to assert Trump had

done things he talked about in the video, such as initiating aggressive foreplay on

women.

Anderson Cooper: Have you ever done those things?

Donald Trump: No, I have not.

Hillary Clinton: What we all saw and heard [in the video released] on Friday

was Donald talking about women. What he thinks about women. What he does

to women. …this is who Donald Trump is.

Both O’Dell and Zucker issued public statements since the release of the video in

which Trump makes sexually charged comments about them. Neither woman

used her public statement to claim Trump physically touched her in an

inappropriate manner. Nevertheless, based on no evidence, Hillary chose

to slander Trump on national television and accuse him of sexual assault.

Not long ago, despite irrefutable evidence on a certain stained navy blue dress,

Hillary stood by her husband and blamed his young female victim Monica

Lewinsky after he sexually assaulted her. She is neither authentic nor an advocate

of women.

“Bimbo,” “Trash,” “Looney Toon”

“She’s said the worst,” Kathleen Willey recently shared in a Breitbart News video

about Hillary Clinton—ticking off terms she said Hillary called her and other

women Bill Clinton sexually assaulted, including: “bimbo,” “trailer trash,” “looney

toon,” “slut,” and “unworthy.” Among these women were Monica Lewinsky,

Juanita Broaddrick, Paula Jones and Kathleen Willey. “She has been the main one

to help cover this up. And go after us,” said Broaddrick. “She hasn’t tried

to talk to any of us women. … We are women, aren’t we?” added Jones.

“A rape is not infidelity. [Sexual assaults] are crimes. … Other people would be in

jail. … This is about a serial rapist: a predator, and his wife—who has enabled his

behavior all of these years. She has taken personal betrayals and turned them into

political opportunities,” said Willey.

Hillary vs. Melania

Melania Trump, Donald’s wife, has shown herself to be a woman with far more

character than Hillary. A woman who would make a far superior First Lady than

Hillary made. Unlike Hillary, who enabled her husband’s predatory sexual

behavior, Melania immediately issued a statement condemning her husband’s

words.

At the same time, Melania acknowledged that Trump’s words did not match his

behavior and urged Americans to accept his apology, as she did. "The words my

husband used are unacceptable and offensive to me. This does not represent the

man that I know. He has the heart and mind of a leader. I hope people will accept

his apology, as I have, and focus on the important issues facing our nation and the

world."

There’s an old saying: “Sticks and stones can hurt my bones, but words can never

hurt me.” Bill Clinton’s actions ruined Lewinsky’s professional and personal life.

His actions permanently scarred Jones, Willey and Broaddrick. But the only

person Trump hurt with his words was himself.

No legitimate person has ever accused Trump of rape. Many legitimate claims of

sexual assault have been brought against Bill Clinton—assaults Hillary enabled.

Plus, Hillary’s socialist and pro-choice policies will make it very hard for women

and men to make a livable wage—if they are fortunate enough to even be born.

Melania’s response to her husband’s language is different from Hillary’s response

to her own husband’s misdeeds. Melania’s reaction was classy and forgiving of her

husband, while never placing blame on the women who were the object of his

unrefined words. Melania took the high road over the path of political gain.

Four women who were mistreated by Hillary and Bill Clinton—including Willey,

Broaddrick and Jones—sat down with Trump a few hours before Sunday’s

presidential debate.

In a short video posted on Trump’s Facebook page, these women reinstated their support for Trump.

They gave two main reasons: as women, they trust Trump, whereas they don’t trust Hillary—and they “believe

Trump can lead us” and our country to greatness. Right on, sisters!

Thomas Sowell commentary: Candidate’s actions, not words, are important Tuesday October 11, 2016 6:35 AM
Donald Trump's gutter talk about women shows yet again that he is bad news. The problem is that Hillary Clinton is far worse. Trump's talk is indefensible. But Hillary Clinton's actions as secretary of state, carrying out the Obama administration's foreign policies, have cost many lives in many places, including the American ambassador and others killed in Benghazi.
Women have a right to be offended by Trump's words. But women have suffered a far worse fate from Clinton's and President Barack Obama's actions. Pulling American troops out of Iraq, despite military advice to the contrary, led to the sudden rise of Islamic State and its seizing of many women and young girls as sex slaves. A message from one of these women urged the bombing of Islamic State. She said she would rather be dead than live the life of a sex slave. Some women who tried to commit suicide and failed have been tortured for trying.
Meanwhile, Obama tried to downplay Islamic State with flippant words, by calling them the junior varsity. His halfhearted, foot-dragging military response has allowed Islamic State to parade before the world as triumphant conquerors, appealing to disgruntled people in Western countries to carry out terrorist attacks in support of their cause. That is a lot worse than some stupid and gross words by Trump, which even he has had to repudiate. Make no mistake about it. Neither party has a good candidate for president. The choice is between bad and disastrous.
Are women more in danger from Trump's words or Hillary's actions? Are Americans in general more in danger from Trump's shallowness on issues or Clinton's ruthless grabs for money and power — a track record that goes all the way back to the days when Bill Clinton was governor of Arkansas? Mrs. Clinton's own announced agenda attacks the very foundation of American constitutional government, on which Americans' own freedom depends. She has already said that she will appoint Supreme Court justices who will specifically overturn a recent Supreme Court decision, ''Citizens United versus FEC.''
That decision said that both corporations and labor unions have freedom of speech, including the right to contribute money toward political campaigns. Hillary Clinton's determination to pick judicial appointees on the basis of their willingness to overturn that decision is a more brazen extension of the political left's other attempts to stifle the free speech of those who oppose their agenda. Demands that various advocacy organizations reveal the names of all their donors are an obvious attempt to scare off those donors, with harassment by everyone from vandals to rioters to the Internal Revenue Service and other government bureaucrats. Without the right to free speech, none of the other rights is safe. Government officials can get away with all sorts of abuses, if others are not free to talk about those abuses.
Despite Hillary Clinton's claims to be a champion for black people, her political agenda threatens the education of black children, the employment of black adults and the physical safety of black communities. She is on the side of the teachers' unions that want to stop the expansion of charter schools, even though these are among the very few places where black children can get a quality education to prepare them for a better future. Here, as with other issues, her public statements are contradicted by her actions.
No law has done more damage to the employment prospects of young blacks than the federal minimum-wage law. But nothing is easier, or more popular, than for some politician to raise the minimum wage, despite the fact that unemployment rates among black young people have skyrocketed to several times what they were before. You don't get any wage at all when you are unemployed. And if you are young and unemployed, you don't get any job experience to help you rise up the ladder, when you don't get on the ladder.
As for safety in the black community, Clinton has allied herself with those who demonize the police. The net result has been a sharp increase in the number of blacks killed by other blacks, as criminal elements take control of the streets when the police are not allowed to. Do you choose a president by talk — or by actions and consequences?

As his final request, Arnold Palmer has suggested that the golf term "bad lie" would be more descriptive if called ...."A Hillary."
The PGA was rumored to have honored Arnold’s request and officially approved “A Hillary” in the lexicon of golf terms.
