The media has been very conscientious in pursuing Trump’s failings and
supposed failings. Much is made of
the fact that he has declared bankruptcy. It is not uncommon for a successful entrepreneur to
have declared bankruptcy. He is
criticized for not paying income tax.
Who does not pay the least amount of taxes the law allows? The wealthy can afford accountants who
can comb the tax loopholes intentional written in the statutes for their
benefit. The Clintons, while not
bankrupt, claimed to be living in poverty immediately after leaving the White
House. Former President Bill
Clinton and Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton earned a combined $109 million
between 2000 and 2007 and paid $33.8 million in federal taxes, according
to tax information released Friday by Mrs. Clinton’s presidential
campaign. They are now
multimillionaires. What kinds of
businesses have they created to produce such wealth? Was this money acquired exclusively from speaking fees? Hillary Clinton must be a spellbinding
speaker to draw hundreds of thousands of dollar for a speaking engagement. There are many questions about these
speaking engagements and about the Clinton Foundation.
Trump has said some unflattering things about women. Are his comments about Rosie O’Donnell
inaccurate? Hillary has said
some unflattering things about half of Trump’s supporters which she called a
“basket of deplorables.” Robert De
Niro has called Donald Trump a “pig.”
I am certain that Robert De Niro
has never said anything in regards to women that he would find
embarrassing. The media is trying
to portray the results of this latest controversy as a “stampede.”
Trump has been criticized for not disowning his more extreme
supporters. Both campaigns have
supporters that can only be described as an embarrassment. For every “Pepe” the frog there is
someone defecating on a U.S. flag.
During Trump’s debate against Hillary Clinton and Lester Holt, Holt,
in effect, called Trump a liar.
Holt asserted, “You had supported the war in Iraq before the invasion.
What makes your…” Trump interrupted
at this point stating that he did not support the war. Holt persisted saying, “My question is,
since you supported it…” Again
Trump interrupted saying he did not support the war. Holt continued, “The record shows otherwise, but why -- why
was…” Trump interrupted Holt for
the third time saying, “When I did an interview with Howard Stern, very lightly, first time anyone's asked me
that, I said, very lightly, I don't know, maybe, who knows?” During this September 11, 2002
interview he was asked by Stern, “Are you for invading Iraq?” Trump responded, “Yeah I guess
so.” The is hardly a firm
endorsement for invasion. His
voice displays a sense of reluctance.
In a January 28, 2003 interview with Neil Cavuto, Trump stated, “Perhaps he (Bush) shouldn’t be doing it yet. And perhaps we should be
waiting for the United Nations.” Clearly, Trump was not an enthusiastic
advocate for war with Iraq. However,
this is an accusation the Left cannot abandon.
Much of the outrage about Trump’s behavior is obviously
manufactured. He has repeatedly
stepped over the line that would lead to his doom. He has not only survived, but flourished. His remarks about women are
inexcusable. However, they are
remarks. Juanita Broaddrick and a host of other women can testify that Bill Clinton
did much more than make disparaging remarks. Clinton Kathleen
Willey has accused Clinton of groping her without consent, and Paula
Jones accuses Clinton of exposing himself and sexually harassing her. Apparently he has been a frequent visitor to “Pedophile
Island,” owned by his good friend Jeffrey Epstein. Bill Clinton has committed perjury in order to conceal his
sexual indiscretions. Has he been
called a pig by the likes of Robert
De Niro?
Robert De Niro complained, ““It makes me so
angry that this country has gotten to this point that this fool, this bozo, has
wound up where he has.” De Niro is not the only one who is angry. A great many, hopefully a large
majority, of Americans are angry about the fundamental transformation of the
country, a transformation that Hillary Clinton promises to continue. These people are the deplorable “Never
Clintons.” Interestingly this is a
rare species among Democrats.
Benghazi is irrelevant because it is in the past. The fact that she has been labeled a
liar by a very sympathetic FBI and that she lied to the families of the Benghazi
victims makes no difference. This
election will be decided by the people voting against a candidate rather than
for one.
