    of it all. ? Only 2 Presidents graduated West Point or the
    United States Military Academy at West Point.They being
    Ulysses S. Grant and Dwight D. Eisenhower.Jimmy Carter
    graduating Annapolis.As did John McCain.
    Our President { still,last I checked } did graduate from a prestigious
    Military Boy's School { New York Military Academy }.
    I know ... I know ... BiG Deal !
    Maybe ... but it shore beat how another President wasted High School
    away by being a member of the school's { Punahou}, a private
    prep school " Choom Gang " Obvioulsy proud enough to have it
    as part of his Biography.Donald Trump does not drink or smoke.
    Especially Pot { which last I checked Is still Illegal }.
    But then Maybe Donald Trump lied about smoking Pot.He lies
    about almost everything else ... right.
    But what's the point.Liars usually don't become POTUS.
    Nor Pot heads.But we know that to be not true.
    What we Do Know is true is how a Non-politican was able to
    Fix a stagnant Economy,Get that Border wall built and also
    helped Americans find jobs and keep more of their pay.
    Helped Israel also.
    Wasn't interested in helping hisself as Obama managed.
    But becoming a Millionaire { $ 100 Million from Netflix and
    another $ 65 Million for a book.
    In fact,this POTUS is giving his Presidential salary to charity.
    A different one each fiscal year.How that's for a Guy.
    I know ... I know ... BiG Deal !.
    But the thing is ... Trump may talk a good game but he also delievers.
    Where Obama mostly delieverd to his acolytes.More Millionaires
    created under Obama than any POTUS.Arguably More Pot
    heads as well.More Protestors.More Hate America types.
    More Hate Cops and Hate Republicans and Hate anyone
    who refuses to sign on the dotted line for Climate Change.
    I mean,what's the Point of West Point.Probably to build character
    and learn discipline.Also Military strategy and preparedness.
    Not how to concern oneself with being a nouveau Millionaire.
    Trump already pole vaulted over that endeavor.
    He's always concerned about a better America for Americans.
    Not for Illegals or Protestors or Dope heads.Or those in Prison.
    But Real Americans who work,play by the rules and keep America
    ticking like a good Timex timepiece.
    Is what. Is all.
    What's the West Point ? ... Do I need to draw a picture.

    The above will only be of interest to those who agree or disagree with people rather than ideas. The problem I have with that tendency is that those who tend to agree or disagree with people, rather then ideas, is that they are also those most likely to agree with people rather than ideas. Nothing good comes from disagreeing with people rather than ideas, but the very worst things come from agreeing with people rather than ideas.

    Pardom Moi.It's aready baked into the political landscape.
    The Democrat Party { all of em ' } Can't debate their ideas so they
    foment Hate and division.While Trump is out Saving and Helping
    the average hard-working,tax-paying,God-fearing American
    guys like " Little " Michael Bloomberg are making a huge pitch
    to make the rest of America just like the state of California.
    I mean,if that don't beat all.Californians are fleeing the state in record
    number.As the Homeless and Rats have taken over.California is the state
    that put Hillary Way over the top in the popular Vote.Hillary beat Trump
    by over 4.2 Million MORE votes in California.
    Take California off the Popular vote map and Trump beats her handidly
    by over a Million more votes.

    So go after their ideas. Don't go after the people. That's what they do. We have no need to do that. We have no need to attach names to ideas or attribute them to their proponents. Nothing good comes from disagreeing with people rather than ideas, but the very worst things come from agreeing with people rather than ideas. Just stick to the ideas.

    That is precisely what Conservatives and Talk Radio does.
    They challenge another's Policy's or ideas.Not make personal attacks.
    Personal attacks is all the Left and Democrats know.CNN and MSNBC
    are perfect examples.College Campus' have virtually turned into
    recruiting grounds for Protesting Conservatives.
    Even High schoolers like Nick Sandmann.
    Talk Radio always invites on those from the left.
    The Left always refuses.Why don't you explain that.

    Yes. After that diatribe you’d be better off drawing picture or at least providing a diagram.

    The underlying economic data for the average Joe is really poor and while we don’t emphasize it. Average Joe feels it.

    Cartoon Democrat talking pt.What else ya got.
    More breaking news of an Impending Recession.
    Or how Trump has advised his Nationalist Thugs to make sure
    and beat-down any Antifa Protestors at tomorrow's Virginia Protest.
    Trump using his Obvious Hand signals and other means to plot
    his Near Third Reich means of Thuggery.
    I mean,where's Bugs Bunny when authority calls.

    Do I smell an air of superiority in that Poster { bricklayer }
    The Master said," The Superior man has neither anxiety
    nor fear. "
    The Master also said ... " to see what is right and not to do it
    is cowardice. "
