A Drum Roll, Please!

 

Ok, so I am ready to speak out regarding the upcoming Presidential elections. To prepare for this I have cut myself off from any media coverage of the candidates. It’s been 5 days since I’ve kept up on the shenanigans of their pasts. I gave up caring if Donald played Doctor as a child or if Hillary tore the heads off her dolls.

First, let me say I told ya so. In my post, dated 8/31/15 on Bullying, I put up red flags regarding Trump and his tactics.  Even before that, the post, dated 7/4/15 on the Republican Circus ended with the sentence, “I already am familiar with one candidate…Donald Trump. My retort…every circus needs a clown.”

So, here we are and he’s made it to the final stretch…or as we volleyball people say, they’re going to a 5th set.

I have been very honest with everyone near me that I will be voting for Hillary. I don’t care that she urinates the same way I do, I care about her experience. Let’s get that clear.

Regarding the emails…I will not discuss this issue after this. Whenever I ask myself “What was she thinking?”  my answer is always “Probably the same thing you were thinking when you gave that nice young identity thief your Visa number thinking you were paying your cellphone bill…at 5:30am on a Sunday morning. OR The time you gave access to your computer to that nice young Indian lady named Delores that was in San Francisco USA.” You’d think the “USA” she added when I asked where she was located should have, shall we say, given me pause.

Frankly, I don’t care what Hillary DID with emails before we realized the dark side to that technology. I only care what she does now that she knows and understands it better.

This is a person that does know how the system of the global world works. She has sat through eye-to-eye meetings with good and bad world leaders and held her own. She has earned the respect and trust from the majority of these leaders. The others don’t intimidate her.

She understands the political system. My firm belief is that we will undergo a restructuring process of the entire system as it exists. The shattering of the Republican party has already occurred and that is only the beginning. But until then, we need to stay on a track with what we understand.

My impression of Donald Trump is that of a buffoon. He used the word “bigly” twice during the first Presidential debate. Having never heard that word before, I looked it up in the dictionary (the book version). As expected, it does not exist but the two words that would be immediately following it are “bigmouth” and “bigot”. Hmmm.

I can’t understand all the people following and supporting him. It’s like they are behind Goofus from the Highlights magazine. (He’s the kid that always made the don’t do decisions). Heck, Donald was probably the kid that circled all the hidden objects and did the dot-to-dot…in ink or crayon. And have you ever noticed that he has the same hairdo as Dennis the Menace?

I’m not going to make a litany of Donald’s continuing megalomaniac actions. Not enough time. I very seriously consider him a threat comparable to other dangerous leaders. Hitler is the obvious example, but unfortunately there are many more.

Another tidbit to consider is what will happen if the Donald is elected. He either will quit, get impeached or assassinated. That leaves us with Mike Pence. Think about it folks. This is a man that authored legislation in 2000 that wanted the money that was earmarked for HIV/AIDS medical research moved to what he called “conversion therapy”. That’s right, let’s talk them out of being gay.

He’s also a big pro-gun supporter. And, in his own words, “Global warming is a myth.” Yikes! He’s the one that we should be watching.

So I’ll vote for Hillary and hope and pray there are enough people that share my perspective to get her elected. And I’ll only start listening and reading about the campaigns again when they go back far enough to determine who was potty trained first…my money is on Hillary.
