I like these words from a stranger to place emphasis on the impossible thing that is the head of your cult..
but just a sample..
HOW DO YOU AS A REPUBLICAN SUPPORT THIS? HOW IS AMERICA BETTER ON THE WORLD STAGE THAN IT WAS BEFORE HE WAS PRESIDENT? WHAT HAS HE DONE TO BRING AMERICA TOGETHER WITH A COMMON VISION? WHAT HAS HE DONE FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS? WHAT HAS HE DONE TO HEAL THE DIVISION IN THIS COUNTRY? HOW HAS HE ELEVATED POLITICAL CONVERSATION? WHAT HAS HE DONE TO MAKE OTHER COUNTRIES TRUST THE UNITED STATES WORD? WHAT HAS HE DONE TO MAKE THE WORLD A SAFER PLACE? WHAT HAS HE DONE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT? WHAT HAS HE DONE FOR INCOME INE******Y? HAVE YOU ASKED YOURSELF WHY N**I’S ARE SUCH BIG SUPPORTERS AND HUGE FANS OF THIS PRESIDENT…? WHY HAVE SO MANY (A RECORD AMOUNT) OF REPUBLICANS LEFT THE PARTY OR CALLED THIS MAN OUT FOR WHAT HE IS? WHY WON’T TRUMP RELEASE HIS TAXES, OR HIS GRADES OR SEPARATE HIMSELF FROM HIS BUSINESSES? HOW IS HIS FAMILY QUALIFIED FOR ANY POSITION THEY ARE IN?

Perm, I'd like to start by saying there is a bonafide list of over 100 improvements that he has made to our Republic. I'll not go through the entire list as it has been written many times. But to take a few of the bigger items; he has started to rebuild the military that obama almost shattered and that has taken a large share of national treasure. He raised the stock market to a record high shortly after taking office and reduced unemployment figures to record lows. In spite of democrat claims to the contrary, obama had nothing to do with either improvement. He thought it would be impossible to make the improvements that Trump managed to accomplish without a magic wand.
He got us out of NAFTA, GATT, TPP and hopefully will be able to get us out of the cancerous UN with its wastrel ways and anti American views. Trump has reduced our taxes and onerous regulations allowing businesses to again prosper. He has tried to keep his promises made to the American public in his campaign but desperate democrats have all too often stymied his promises to fence off the Southern border and to get rid of the un-Constitutional obamacare with its mandatory, constantly increasing, premiums and deductibles.
One of the big reasons for his popularity with Conservatives is his insistence on keeping his e******n promises to the best of his ability. He has had some formidable resistance, but he has given it his best. And people appreciate his efforts, in spite of his poor speech making and often brash ways. We were tired of democrat leadership that led us only down, down, down and have seen correction in many of their tired efforts with the result that we can see prosperity and security again and it is delightful.
That is how as a Republican (actually I'm an American Constitutionalist) I can support our President. You wonder how he has made America greater on the world stage than when he took office. I don't know that he has but he came close to returning us to our halcyon days after WWII when we had national joy in the knowledge that we were as good as anyone going. After Clinton's escapades in the WH and obama's bowing and scrapping before world leaders, it was good to be able to hold our head high once again under the strong leadership of a genuine manager who had a concept of leadership.
That is his gift in bringing our nation together again: a good and prosperous lifestyle, enough to eat, warm clothing, an excellent military and police presence which grants security. Those that want to participate can do so, those that don't or won't have to shift for themselves. The homeless are an abominable situation, some like the lifestyle, others h**e it. Drugs and personal living habits can make for very untenable situations, people far smarter than I have failed to find solutions: but under Trump's leadership, the solution will continually be sought.
As will the problems of i*****l i*******ts. There is absolutely no question they are lawbreakers and should be banned from our shores; we cannot have a major block of lawbreakers gaining any of our rights and privileges, most of which have been earned by our own people during their working lives.
And our land mass is not infinite: we have limits due to insufficient water, farm land,and excessive pollution, etc. We generally have sufficient today but continued immigration will draw these natural advantages down to precarious levels. Now is the time to preserve our nation for our offspring. Build the wall and get these invaders out now!!
You mention income ine******y. Nowhere in any publication I have read have I seen a cogent case for e******y in income. Stalin and Mao were enthusiasts but their form of government is repugnant and repulsive and has failed everywhere it has been tried. Nature is not an instrument of e******y. Everywhere you look in the animal kingdom, you'll find the fat and sleek vs the starving, unkempt. The fit ones prosper, the less than blessed have a harder time and will not always make it. Old age and injury removes many from the herd, slow and tired besides the young and energetic who are fast enough to escape. It may not be pretty but it is reality! The same one we have to face. People are not always physically or mentally equal; the fittest of the crowd will usually prosper, the less so, not so much. E******y be damned; face the facts.
I'll finish my response in answering your final question. By what right do any of Trump's family hold positions of power in the family hierarchy. I'm sure you raised that question only in a state of dudgeon; it is obviously the right of inheritance, the same one you and I are blessed with should we be fortunate enough to have been raised by relatively wealthy forebears. If not we are among the overwhelming majority of people who missed the jackpot! All best you old coot!
