An Open Letter To Mitch McConnell and the D.C.Establishment Politicians

On Wednesday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell reacted to President Elect Donald Trump's proposal to impose term limits on Congress through a Constitutional amendment. McConnell said, "It will not be on the agenda in the Senate." McConnell, one of the old guard political elite, has rejected term limits in the past (imagine that). "I would say we have term limits now — they're called elections."

In one fell swoop, McConnell's rather arrogant statement gives a full screaming voice to the very reason Donald Trump was swept into office in a blowout victory - unforeseen by the polls, pundits, politicians, media and the frothing Clinton Liberals who stood stunned, shaken and crying at the spectacular results. Their 'Snowflake Nation' was left looking for a Safe Space to cower in defeat, as real Americans everywhere took back this Country with an impressive show of voting force not seen in 36 years.

McConnell doesn't get it.  He believes when Mr. Trump takes office, it will be business as usual.  He believes he will decide what the citizens of this Country need.  He believes he can ignore the will of the people and treat us as nothing more than an annoyance -  shaking us off like a horse shuddering away nettlesome flies on a hot summer day.  

I can only say this... McConnell and any like minded establishment politicians inside the Beltway had better get up to speed with the reality and force of the anger and frustration in this Country and realize we voted Mr. Trump into office to "Drain the Swamp!"

It would seem to me that McConnell is standing waste deep in the stinking mire that is the D.C. swamp - unaware the drain plug is about to be pulled from the slimy bottom of the quagmire - right where he is standing.  

So let me put him straight.

Dear Mr. McConnell,

We the people - the angry, frustrated, wounded and degraded Americans of this once great Country - have had enough!  We did not vote Mr. Trump into office so some despicable, arrogant, two-bit hustler like yourself, who is looking out only for himself and other like minded career Politicians, will now stand there and tell us you are going to do what you want - and not what the people of this Country voted for.

Do you think you are immune?  Do you believe that all the outrage that spilled forth like a giant tsunami during this election cycle is going to dissipate just because the election is over?  Do you think the rage and anger of the Trump voters was aimed only at Hillary Clinton and the Progressive faction of the Democrats?  Please tell me you aren't that stupid.

Then again, maybe you are.


Rest assured, Mr. Majority Leader, by flat-out refusing to bring Term Limits to the floor of the Senate, you are deaf to the death knell ringing for you and your smug, condescending, corrupt brethren. Stonewalling the people's choice in a pompous and disdainful attempt to maintain your stranglehold over a no longer unsuspecting populace, will most certainly end up in a loud, messy, humiliating and very public, political suicide.  

The very fact that you fail to grasp the severity of this situation is a sad, yet completely deserved testimony to the mindset of the privileged Establishment Politicians of this Country.

How dare you put your political interests ahead of the will of the American people!  

Let me reiterate... Don't misread this angry,  flag waving rebellion that brought an Anti-Establishment candidate to darken your doorstep. Don't think the vitriol and dissatisfaction is aimed only at those on the Left.  Don't for one second believe we are done cleaning house of morally bankrupt politicos who have spent untold years working in the hallowed halls of Congress for their own benefit, scurrying like rats in the dark, spreading the disease of corruption while leaving a trail of destruction in their wake.

If you intend to go down this road, to stymie the voice of the people who fought to put Mr. Trump into office, to be so completely and utterly clueless as to ignore the train bearing down on you, then you have made a fatal mistake, a horrific error in judgement of epic proportions.

And in the end, when all is said and done, your only legacy will be that of a corrupt old man who was too stupid, too arrogant and too cowardly to stand with his constituents against the Tyranny of the D.C. elite.  

Its sad that a man like yourself would make such a fatal mistake so late in life.

Sincerely,
Hipshot Percussion

America in Distress 2016 - Is the Great Experiment of Liberty Finished?

This is the Most Important Election this Country has Ever Known, Bar None.  

As we head to the polls on November 8th, will we stand by and watch as the sun sets on the heart and soul of our great Nation... the Great Experiment in Liberty?

Or will we wave the American Flag in the streets at the rebirth of our Nation, turning back the rising poisoned tide of Far Left Liberalism?

Donald Trump is our only hope. Hillary Clinton must not be allowed to become President.

The Supreme Court of the United States of America, the case-hardened linchpin that must bear the weight of guardianship, keeping this Country anchored to its Constitutional foundation, is back on it's heels, bloodied by Liberal appointments and Socialist ideals.

Our Rights - First, Second, Fourth, Fifth... are on the ropes.  Hillary Clinton has said the "...Supreme Court is wrong on the Second Amendment."  

Clinton will expand ObamaCare... "And what I do want to see is that we have more options for undocumented people to be able to get the Healthcare they need." Apparently, she believes hardworking, responsible, taxpaying Americans should not have the right to keep the money they worked for, the money they sweated for, sacrificed for, the money they earned with their own two hands, but should be forced to pay the freight for those who don't work or pay taxes.  Clinton believes the Government has the right to force us to reach deep into our already empty pockets and pay to support illegal immigrants, who, by the very definition, are Criminals.

HRC will nominate Supreme Court Justices who are Left-leaning and whose ideology is in line with her Saul Alinsky driven Socialistic, global society dream.  She doesn't value the Constitution - thinking it antiquated - and in this video, speaks for 2.5 minutes about Supreme Court Justices while never once mentioning the word "Constitution".  Not one time.  Why?  Because she hates the Constitution!  It stands in her way.  It and the Constitutional Justices impede her dream of Big Government and her Socialist ideals.

Hillary Clinton cannot be President.  Pure and Simple.

She has stated, “My dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders..."


Is any of this sinking in?  Bueller?  Bueller?

The polls show a close race in both the popular vote and the Electoral vote - but make no bones about it, she is ahead.  She must be stopped, but how do we accomplish this?  

Turnout.  Pure and simple.  No one should be sitting home on election day.  If you care one iota for this Country, the Constitution, your Liberties and your American way of life - the only one of its kind in the World - then you need to get off your butt and vote for Trump. 

The Media would have you believe this is Trump vs Clinton - but it isn't.  This
is a battle of ideologies - Personal Responsibility against "Free Everything", individual freedoms and Rights vs being forced by Liberals at gunpoint to re-distribute your hard-earned money to those the Left deems worthy.   

This election will impact every American for generations to come. Even if you can't stand the Republican candidate, if you want a shot at turning this Country around, you need to bite the bullet and vote for Trump.

And keep this in mind... if you are thinking of voting independent - Libertarian or Green Party - you are not absolved of any sins in this election!  


Do you presume, by voting independent, you are exonerated from the train wreck this Country will be if Clinton is elected?  Do you honestly believe you bear no responsibility in the outcome of this election, just because you voted your precious principles?  

Sorry, but it doesn't work that way. 

You don't escape blame for a Clinton Presidency.  You will be just as responsible for a Hillary Clinton Presidency as anyone... maybe more so.

Many people are voting for Trump because they realize he is the only viable candidate running against her - not because they like him, not because they believe he's a good guy. They will vote for him because they understand the importance of gutting a Clinton Election - stopping her cold - and the only option to accomplish this is to vote for Trump. 

A vote for an independent candidate is the same as not voting at all.  All you are doing is sitting on the sidelines while allowing others to choose your next President - and like the cartoon to the left - you and you alone will have to take responsibility for your vote and explain to your Children, your Grandchildren, how those sacred principles that just wouldn't allow you to vote for Trump, were absolutely fine with Clinton becoming President while destroying our freedoms, our way of life and our Country. Maybe you can integrate that talk into the one where you explain why, when you die, the Government will be taking between 38 and 65% of their inheritence - another Clinton aim.

Of course, there are those that believe Trump is the second coming of Hitler... truly... I've heard them say it.  I even asked one long-time friend if he was actually comparing Trump to a man who exterminated 6,000,000 people?  His response?

Yes. That even Hitler was considered a good guy when he was running for election.


How the heck do you combat that kind of insanity?


Scott Adams, a trained hypnotist, a self-described student of persuasion and the creator of the comic strip Dilbert, covered this subject in his blog post - I Wake You Up For The Presidential Debate.

"If a friend said he could see a pink elephant in the room, standing right in front of you, but you don’t see it, which one of you is hallucinating?

Answer: The one who sees the pink elephant is hallucinating.

In nearly every scenario you can imagine, the person experiencing an unlikely addition to their reality is the one hallucinating. If all observers see the same addition to their reality, it might be real. But if even one participant can’t see the phenomenon – no matter how many can – it is almost certainly not real.

If you see something unlikely – such as a new Hitler rising in the midst of America – and I see nothing remotely like that – I’m almost certainly right and you’re almost certainly having the illusion. I say that because the person who sees the unlikely addition to reality is the one experiencing the illusion nearly every time. Trump as Hitler-in-America is an addition to reality that only some can see. It is a pink elephant. It is a classic hallucination... And Clinton’s team of persuaders has caused half of the country to see Trump as a racist/sexist Hitler with a dangerous temperament. That’s a pink elephant."


And...

"...I’m here to tell you that if you are afraid that Donald Trump is a racist/sexist clown with a dangerous temperament, you have been brainwashed by the best group of brainwashers in the business right now: Team Clinton. They have cognitive psychologists such as Godzilla advising them. Allegedly."

Open your eyes.


If you vote independent in this election, you are throwing away your vote like a Billionaire throwing away a damaged C-note. Your vote, like the damaged Benjamin, has value, but only if you use that bill on something of equal value, and an independent vote has no value in this election - it is a waste.

You can righteously dispute that argument all you want, but it's true.

Would you bet on a three-legged horse in the Kentucky Derby? Of course not, he can't win and you wouldn't throw away good money on him just because of your principles.

Why not write-in a vote for Jack or Jane from down the street? Hell, you've talked with them and they are truly the perfect Libertarians! Perfect! So if you must vote by your principles, you should write in one of their names!

But you won't. Why? Because they can't win. Because that would be throwing away your vote.

Is this getting through to you?

And remember your vote for a Third Party can have far-reaching consequences.
In 1992, if all those who voted for Ross Perot (myself included) had voted for Bush, Bill Clinton would have likely never been elected... and by association, Hillary most likely wouldn't be running today.

Hell, I'll take the blame - this mess of an election is my fault - because I voted independent in 1992. I threw away my vote and turned over the White House to Liberals and in this election, your vote is far more valuable than mine was in 1992. 


Your vote in this election is more valuable than it has ever been.


Donald Trump is an honest-to-God, once in a lifetime opportunity to effect real change in this Country. Change away from Socialism. Change away from Big Government. Change away from the elitist political climate that now permeates this Country. Change away from a Liberal Supreme Court. Change away from unemployment. Change away form higher taxes. Change away from debilitating restrictions on businesses.

Change. For the good of everyone, even those who don't realize it.

Trump has been an indestructible fulcrum that has leveraged honesty and plain speech against the political hierarchy of this politically correct Country. He alone has exposed the Media for what it is - before Wikileaks. He alone railed against a rigged election process - again, before Wikileaks. He alone has the resources to buck the system without fear of political retribution. He alone can't be bought.

Alone.

He stands against every MSM outlet who looks to bury him. He stands against
illegal immigrants flooding into our Country. He stands against Sanctuary Cities. He stands against higher taxes. He stands against the politicians - from both sides
of the aisles - that attempt to abort his run for the Presidency.


Alone.

And on November 8th, 2016 we need to proudly stand with him and speak with one voice. One strong, loud, rebellious voice.


We Are Taking Our Country Back!




Stay Safe, Carry Responsibly and Vote for Trump!
