Six Heroes Of The Trump Revolution

Of course Donald Trump (and his supportive family) is the ultimate hero of the election.

 That one man could have carried on a schedule that people half his age would stagger under while battling a totally hostile media, a dirty tricks Democratic opposition, a fanatic leftist blogosphere and multi-millions of dollars tossed to the Clinton campaign by assorted multi-millionaires is, well, heroic in the classical, Herculean sense.

There were, fortunately others whose contribution made Trump's burden somewhat lighter. Some throughout the entire campaign and some at strategic, vital, key points. 

These include the campaign teams especially Manafort, Lewandowski and latterly and brilliantly Conway but those are insiders and not so much the political face of the Trump campaign and deserve a separate article.


The Political Campaign Heroes.

Governor Chris Christie

Governor Christie made a vital, if indirect, contribution to the Trump victory by utterly destroying the nascent campaign of Marco Rubio in the New Hampshire primary. Trump had finished second, vitally  in Iowa and history shows that a first place in New Hampshire after such a showing can be the key to propelling the winner to South Carolina and effectively to the nomination which is what happened after Rubio, the last genuine threat to Trump was vanquished.

Christie's direct contribution was his endorsement of Trump. Being seen as a centrist, Establishment figure, the 2012 convention keynote speaker, Christie's endorsement and occasional campaign appearance for Trump added a degree of DC legitimacy to trump's campaign and made the media start to take him more seriously. Christie then took an advisory role and let the full attention be on Trump as it should have been.

***********************************************************************




Governor Sarah Palin

Palin played a critical role in Trump's ascendancy. The "Pizza Summit" in New York clearly signaled to her legions of supporters that if she did not run then she saw in trump someone who had the skills, financial capacity and most importantly the policies which she could wholeheartedly back.

When Trump did run her endorsement just before the Iowa caucuses was crucial. Polls showed that Trump's support with evangelicals, lukewarm at best, rocketed after Palin endorsed him. This was enough to propel an alien New York business mogul to a close second place in Iowa the perfect launching pad for New Hampshire. 

At that point Palin's work was done. Her supporters knew who to vote for and it was clear that if she took a high profile in the campaign the media would use here as a stick to beat Trump so Palin subsequently embarked ion an amazing subsequent period of self-effacement abnegation which ended in a flurry of last minute campaigning in Ohio and her beloved Michigan, both states which were carried by Trump.

***********************************************************************



Senator Jeff Sessions

As  with Governor Christie Senator Sessions endorsement of Trump gave him the backing of a long serving and highly respected DC figure. It also signaled to the south, which Trump swept even in the face of an onslaught from Texas senator Cruz,  that Trump was their man.

***********************************************************************



Newt Gingrich

Gingrich, another pillar of D.C. served as a highly effective television surrogate for Trump in the area of policy whilst his verbal skills were valuable in deflecting and ridiculing the DNC and media's onslaughts. Gingrich did this endlessly and pitch perfectly.

***********************************************************************




Rudy Giuliani

Exactly as Gingrich except substitute New York for D.C. 

An invaluable, tireless contribution which added gravitas to the Trump campaign.

***********************************************************************




Dr.Ben Carson

Dr.Carson's endorsement of Trump (and Trump's visibly respectful interaction with Dr.Carson) signaled to the African American community that Trump had merit. It also was a highly effective blunting of the "racialist' slurs which were aimed at Trump and which dissipated markedly after Dr. Carson took up the spear for Trump

"Palin Wins Presidency" (Palin-ism In The Presidency)

I wrote this in 2015 "Palin-ism in the Presidency" when it appeared unlikely that Governor Palin would run in 2016

"The "common sense conservatism" policies that Sarah Palin espouses and exemplifies, are lasting if not timeless and will be her legacy no matter what her personal future holds. An outline of  what she, and this site stands for are at this LINK "

Douglas Herz continues that theme and, rightly gives much of the credit for Donald trump's election to Governor Palin

Breaking: Palin wins presidency

By Douglas Herz

The roots of Donald Trump's historic presidential victory go back eight years to the 2008 presidential contest and the V.P. candidacy of Sarah Palin.  Palin, or more properly Palinism, had many of the same characteristics as the Trump ascendancy: a robust patriotic populism driven by intense love of country and rejection of big-government internationalism embodied by Barack Hussein Obama and Hillary Clinton.  

Palinism also introduced Americans to the political struggle not as Left vs. Right, but as Country Class vs. Ruling Class, Bluebloods vs. Commoners, Ivy League vs. College of Hard Knocks, Urban Elite vs. Middle and Rural Working Class.

In this respect, then, Sarah Palin was the pioneer, with the arrows in her back to prove it, who enabled Donald Trump's amazing success.

This is not to take anything away from The Donald.  Unlike Palin, who was somewhat of a political insider, having governed a red state (Alaska) and having been plucked from obscurity by veteran insider John McCain for his V.P. slot, Trump was a pure outsider.  

Trump wore his outsider credentials and lack of political chops like a badge of honor, successfully arguing that Barack Hussein Obama had less experience than he when Obama won the presidency in 2008.  Trump, also, did not do battle with the mainstream media as Palin did, but instead sought, successfully, to mold and to manipulate it to his advantage, playing the MSM like a fiddle.

  Trump also had a knack for putting his political opponents on the defensive with character bottles that they could not escape.  Thus, the moniker "crooked Hillary" may become HRC's enduring legacy...and deservedly so.    

Donald Trump won a historic victory on November 8, yes, but the person who above all made it possible was Sarah Palin.  Sarah, we love you.  We will remember and revere your profound contributions to America's greatness forever...and may you soon enjoy the political vindication you so richly deserve.

Yes There is Much To Thank President Obama For

map link


Of course eight years of an Obama administration has been a high price to pay for the radical restructuring, or perhaps recreating of political America. However to drain the swamp sometimes a high price has to be paid but the end result is the noxious fumes and malaria are removed.

In point of fact after the 2010 crushing defeat for the Democratic party in congress Obama has been effectively neutered and shortly his only "achievement" Obamacare will be disposed of.

Race relations in dire straights will take longer to fix but if President Trump can bring jobs to the African American community the healing process can begin and the creation of a Black middle class will do much to better America.

The one thing that Republicans can thank Obama for is the massive destruction of the Democratic party. Not only do they now not have a "bench' they don't even have a starting lineup in respect of having any dynamic leadership/leaders and certainly there are no realistic presidential hopefuls on the horizon.

This is the end result of eight years of "Hope and Change" and yes, it is a change hoped for and delivered.

The Republicans have;

The presidency

The Senate with a workable majority (52-48)

The House (239-193)

The majority of Congressional delegations (*33-14-3_

The Supreme Court

The majority of state governorship's (**33-16-1)

The majority of state legislatures

*" (The Republican party) have a majority of representatives in 33 of America's 50 states, Democrats have a majority in just 14 states, with three states having an equal number of members from each party."

"Our analysis shows Democrats have lost 910 seats since Obama took office. (You can see the changes in every state here.)

We took a state-by-state look of lost seats from the best source available, theNational Conference of State Legislatures. Using the group’s data, we compared the number of Democratic seats in early 2009, when Obama took office, to the number of seats after the 2014 midterms.

The bottom line: Republicans now control about 56 percent of the country’s 7,383 state legislative seats, up 12 percentage points since 2009.

Thirty-five states posted double-digit seat losses for the Democrats in state legislatures, including more than 50 seats each in Arkansas, New Hampshire and West Virginia."

** The GOP flipped control of state executives in Missouri, Vermont and New Hampshire as of early Wednesday. That means the party will hold the governors’ offices in at least 33 states, up from 31. In a stunning night for Democrats on the national stage, these additional losses pushed the party further into the political wilderness in the states, where they have been struggling to compete for years.

"Immoral Minority" Palin Haters Choke On Own Vomit As She Wins With Trump And They Lose

UPDATE; The Immoral Minority site is clearly in its death throes. Even during a hotly contested presidential election the site goes into massive decline as the Alexa analysis shows, its days of filth rage and hate are, thankfully drawing to a close;

***************************************************************


For eight years a blogsite, run by a clearly unhinged crazy "Griffin" (Jesse Griffin") called, crazily enough "Immoral Minority" has been the home for a collection of oddballs that would do justice to "Ripley's Believe It Or Not" museum.

"Griffin" has fed these cranks, conspirators, deluded and just plain bonkers alleged humans a steady diet of Palin hate meat which, no matter how rotten stinking and rank, they greedily devour.

No mad rumor, no insane impossibility is crazy enough not to be swallowed whole by these poor examples of wretched humanity. here are some examples and no, I am not making them up, especially as my imagination can't conceive of such craziness

"Palin faked her pregnancy by wearing a false pregnancy rubber suit The Palin's are getting divorced, Todd Palin uses the services of a prostitute. Her alleged son (actually Willow's or Bristol's as the mood takes them) is not only not her son but there are a number of "Trigs "all with different ruffled ears which Palin gets from murdering runaway pregnant teens and then Todd buries their bodies under the concrete slab of his airplane hangar."

And, "Palin is bald and wears a wig, Palin instructs people to fly planes over our houses to spy on us." 

But enough of such madness, even writing it makes me feel dirty.

But in the end Palin, the multi-millionaire, the writer of four New York times best selling books, stands head and shoulders above such creepy crawly pitiful creatures. her chosen candidate Donald Trump will be the next president and this came about in no small part through her vital endorsement of Irump before the Iowa primary.

The exit polls showed a marked rise in support for Trump from Evangelicals after her endorsement which helped propel him to the vital second place finish which gave him momentum for his landslide in New Hampshire and then South Carolina, again with Evangelical support, which sewed up the nomination.

Palin recognized, wisely, she did not have the financial backing to mount a successful campaign of her own but in Trump she found the candidate who would promote her views and whose financial independence would over come the entire media and Democratic opposition as well as rival GOP candidates.

Trump won and of course so did palin. Whether she wishes to pursue an acting or reality TV future or if she is, or is not offered a role in the Trump administration is all of lesser significance than the fact that Trump, her chosen candidate for president won.

The haters are left with gnashing their teeth or gums as is more likely the case and can spew and hate till they decompose in their dung heaps but nobody will know or care. They are done and she has won as, in the end truth and love triumphs over hate and evil
