I like the way this is phrased because it recognizes that the political class are "bought and paid for". I believe that the basic premise is correct: If you listen to Trump, he is hitting many of the hot buttons of the electorate. But you have to listen to him and not be distracted by his showmanship and obnoxious behavior.
I like the list of 13 things that I, as a senior American citizen, want'
Trump is at least talking about issues that most Americans are concerned about. My mantra about Trump is this: Truthfully, We are usually in agreement with most of what he says but wish someone else was saying it. We are offended by his brash manner. We are getting older and our tickers aren't what they used to be, but what matters is that he covers most of the 13 things we as seniors want – at least I do for sure.
1. Hillary: held accountable for her previous wrongs!
2. Put "GOD" back in America !!!
3. Borders: Closed or tightly guarded!
4. Congress: On the same retirement & healthcare plans as everybody else.
5. Congress: Obey its own laws NOW!
6. Language: English only!
7. Culture: Constitution and the Bill of Rights!
8. Drug Free: Mandatory Drug Screening before & during Welfare!
9. Freebies: NONE to Non-Citizens!
10. Budget: Balance the damn thing!
11. Foreign Countries: Stop giving them our money! Charge them for our help! We need it here.
12. Fix the TAX CODE!
And most of all.
13. "RESPECT OUR MILITARY AND OUR FLAG!!"
We the people are coming! Only 86% will send this on. Should be 100%. What will you do? Please send it on; if only to one person.
Forwards from grandma.
1. Gimme a break, stop wasting everyone's time.
2. Big ole nope, keep your religion to yourself and out of the public space.
3. Done already
4. Who cares
5. Good luck with that. Congress writes and polices their own ethics.
6. Done already. English is the international language of commerce.
7. Huh? Can anyone translate this nonsense?
8. Giant waste of money only advocated by people that own drug testing companies. Been proven to cost more than it saves.
9. Don't help the poor, I'm sure that won't lead to increased crime.
10. Ok, I guess not really a big deal
11. I assume this is about foreign aid, foreign aid is very cheap diplomacy that pays itself back tenfold.
12. Fix it how?
13. Does anyone not?
