I Support Donald Trump

I usually try to avoid talking about politics, but this particular election season I'm scared to death about what could happen if Hillary Clinton becomes our next President. I know that there are many people (including friends of mine) who are so disgusted with both major candidates that either they're not going to vote at all, or they're going to vote for the libertarian candidate (Gary Johnson) or some other, lesser known candidate. But no matter what you do, even if you vote for a different candidate, one of these candidates - Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton - is going to be our next President. So you have a very important choice to make - perhaps a difficult, painful choice, but an important choice nonetheless. If you choose not to vote, or to vote for some other candidate, and even if you choose to vote for Hillary Clinton, I understand and respect your right to do so. But I hope that this post at least helps you to feel a little bit better about the distinct possibility of Donald Trump becoming our next President.

Here are a few things about Trump that the media will never tell you:

⚫ In 1986, Trump saw on the news that a widow whose husband had committed suicide was about to lose her home to foreclosure. Trump stepped in to help her.

⚫ In 1988, an ill Orthodox Jewish child was not allowed to take a commercial airline jet to get medical care because of all the life-support equipment he needed with him. Trump transported him on his own plane.

⚫ In 1991, 200 Marines got stranded at an airport while trying to return to their families. Trump used his plane to get them on their way.

⚫ In 1995, a motorist stopped to help Trump with a flat tire. Trump paid off his mortgage.

⚫ In 1996, Trump fought in court against discrimination of Jews and blacks in Palm Beach, Florida.

⚫ In 2000, Trump gave a large sum of money to help a young girl with Brittle Bone disease.

⚫ In 2008, after members of actress Jennifer Hudson's family were murdered, Trump put her and other family members up in his hotel for free.

⚫ In 2013, after a bus driver stopped a suicidal woman from jumping, Trump gave him a check as a reward.

⚫ In 2014, after Trump learned a U.S. Marine had been in a Mexican jail for seven months after accidentally crossing the border, Trump gave him $25,000 to get him back on his feet.

⚫ This year, Miss Wisconsin credited Trump with encouraging her during her struggles with illness and for helping get her Mexican-American son's way through college paid for.

⚫ This year, Trump helped a black female executive of his organization through "immensely difficult times" as she struggled through substance abuse.

While a person's past good deeds do not give a full picture of who they are and what they will do in the future, this is certainly an aspect of Trump's personality the Left and the mainstream media never mention as they make him a monument of every bit of hatred and intolerance they perceive in people who call themselves Republicans and conservatives.

I know that Donald Trump has his faults. He has said some things that have offended people, and I don't condone or try to excuse that. But I am a lot more concerned about the things that Hillary Clinton has done, or has failed to do, and the things that she will do if she is elected, than I am about things that Donald Trump has said in the past (especially things that he said many years ago). I think that actions speak much louder than words. I also think that Donald Trump has learned a lot over the course of this campaign.

I also know that some people are saying that Donald Trump made fun of a reporter for being disabled, but that simply isn't true. He was talking about the awkward situation that reporter found himself in when it was proven that he had said something that he had just claimed to not have said. Yes, it was very unfortunate that Donald Trump happened to move his hands in such a way that they looked similar to the way that reporter's hands looked in a particular photo. Yes, it was rather insensitive of him and he should have been more careful. But if you really want to know what was actually on Trump's mind when he was making that speech, this video will shed a lot of light on that subject. It was a gotcha moment, not making fun of a disability. Like I said, I usually try to avoid the subject of politics, but I cannot allow that lie to stand.

I also want to share another video, in which Trump talks about his concerns regarding the direction in which this country is heading and what's happening to us. It shows that Donald Trump understands a lot about some of the problems that America is facing and really does have our best interests at heart. He didn't need to run for President. He already has all the money that he could ever want, and being President isn't the kind of life that he has always wanted. But someone has to step up to the plate and do what needs to be done, and no one else seems to be doing it. I hope that you enjoy this video, or at least find it interesting.

This video keeps getting taken down, for one reason or another. I hope this one stays up.
