Draggingtree Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 : February 27, 2016 How Did We Get Obama and Trump? By Janice Shaw Crouse Many Americans shook their heads in 2008 wondering how in the world President Obama was elected when he had told us plainly that he wanted to “fundamentally transform” our country. Then, the perplexity increased when he was reelected in 2012 long after his radical policies and disdain for the Constitution were abundantly evident. Unbelievably, after suffering through the effrontery of the Obama Administration’s arrogance and his flaunting of executive actions instead of bipartisanship, the nation is now enthralled with Donald Trump’s bombastic, flamboyant, but empty promises – based solely on his ability to capitalize on the public’s anger and to manipulate people’s fears, rather than specific policy proposals or potential for effective constitutional governance -- to come in and liberate us from the overweening government bureaucrats with their endless thirst for control and restore America’s greatness. The Washington Post summarized the situation by claiming that Donald Trump is giving the establishment (on both Capitol Hill and K Street) the “middle finger” and “his supporters love it.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickydog Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 We are watching a revolution in the making, and revolutions are never pretty. I think in the end it will turn out all right, but it's anybody's guess how long it will take. I may not see the end in my lifetime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
