The Problem Is Not the Presidential Candidates

Among the greatest fears of those who founded our constitutional republic was that the powerful new office they were creating, the President of the United States, could be a path to authoritarianism and eventual tyranny. Much of the deliberation over the drafting and adoption of the new Constitution was dedicated to ensuring adequate safeguards against that possibility.

Andrew C. McCarthy  "We should always be on guard against presentism, but in this instance I do not hesitate to say that the upcoming presidential election is the most alarming in American history. I can make that statement with confidence because I do not believe the most disturbing aspect of the election is the choice of candidates – even though the two major party nominees present the worst choice the American people have faced in my lifetime (Eisenhower was president when I was born), and perhaps ever.

"The reason this is such a frightening election is that the Constitution’s mechanisms for reining in or ousting a rogue president are in tatters.

"We are not supposed to have transformative elections, contests that will forever change our system of government or enable government to orchestrate cultural upheaval. The Constitution is supposed to be our guarantee against that." . . .

Vegas Gun Store Holds 'Pre-Hillary' Gun Sale

PJ Media

"Westside Armory in Las Vegas is having a "Pre-Hillary" gun sale, predicting a surge in firearm purchases should the anti-Second Amendment Clinton win the election in November. Get on in there before the price gouging starts!

The Las Vegas gun store Westside Armory is predicting a Hillary Clinton victory in November, and it has a message for customers: Buy now, because things are going to get expensive.

In an advertisement over the weekend in the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Westside Armory said it was holding a “Pre-Hillary Sale” on tactical rifles, warning of a price surge if the Democratic nominee wins the presidential election next month.

“Don’t wait!” the advertisement reads. “Prices will skyrocket after Crooked Hillary gets in.”

The End of the Stupid Father Era....well, for a time, I guess

61 Things You Never Knew About the Cast, Characters, and Production of Bonanza
This was fact number 55 in the collection. Now the stupid males are back in force in commercials and dramas.

"Before Bonanza debuted in 1959 there was a common theme among TV shows. The men played bumbling morons who could only support their family with the leadership of their wives. Creators wanted to make sure that Ben Cartwright was a loved and respected father figure who was working hard to support his family and give his children a good life. The idea worked and soon teenage boys all over the country were writing to the show’s studio to say they wanted Ben to be their father."

Video: Democrats using trained provocateurs to instigate violence at Trump rallies. (Language)

Caution, strong language advisory.

What a campaign can do when it has a lot of money.

Joe Newby, via Project Veritas  "Do liberal Democrats want violence this election season?  It sure looks that way.  A video released Monday by James Okeefe’s Project Veritas shows Democrats using trained provocateurs to instigate violence at GOP rallies in an effort to bring about anarchy.

"And it seems the plot to incite violence goes all the way up to the Clinton campaign and the DNC.

. . . "According to O’Keefe, this is just part one.  The corruption, he said, goes all the way up to the White House and it appears there’s evidence of criminality on the part of the left.

This is a must-see.  Now we know just how corrupt the Democrat Party is and how far the left is willing to go to win.  And naturally, the Democrat-media complex will do their bidding."

Trump vs. the Hillarymedia

There are way too many coincidences in assaults on Trump  " . . .None of this addresses the truth of these charges. Clinton has often said female victims of sexual predators should be believed by default. Unless it seems they’re accusing her husband. She attacked them.

"What this sordid chapter does address is a pattern of perfectly timed video embarrassments against Clinton opponents. Barack Obama, now her staunch proponent, faced a series of leaked videos of his preacher’s racist, anti-Semitic sermons."

The Commission on Presidential Debates systematically screws over Republicans -- but especially one named Donald Trump.  . . . "With this kind of establishment firepower in place at the commission, somebody like Donald Trump could never ever expect to be treated fairly."

#WomenWhoVoteTrump: Meet Female voters who continue supporting Trump

Legal Insurrection

“I prefer to be offended by him on occasion than be left for dead by Hillary.”

"During the past week-and-a-half, the elite media has been on a mission to obliterate Donald Trump’s candidacy with late-coming charges by women whose stories are being challenged by people in positions to know the truth.

"On the other hand, the coverage of the WikiLeaks information related to Hillary Clinton, her Goldman Sachs speeches, the Clinton Foundation’s corruption, the war on Bill Clinton’s accusers, the war on Catholics, collusion with the Department of Justice, and the media collusion with her campaign has been dripping out slowly. Fortunately for the Republican candidate, the American people’s trust in the American press is such that Google searches for the term “Wikileaks” has dwarfed the searches related to the Trump scandal.

"How is the ginned-up Trump scandal actually impacting women voters? While my vote has remained unchanged, I was interested in what other female supporters were saying.

"Fox News pundit and conservative talk show host Tammy Bruce appeared on Face the Nation, and shared her thoughts:"

Eric Holder named to lead effort to destroy GOP after Hillary wins the presidency

We in the opposition would become the Washington Generals of American politics.

Thomas Lifson  "This election is for keeps: plans are being implemented, with President Obama already signed on, staff hired, and money being raised.  Perhaps lulled into complacency by the MSM polls, the Democrats have already constructed and staffed their strategy to permanently disable the Republican Party.  Eric Holder is the perfect henchman, a man above nothing in his quest for political dominance, unbound by old-fashioned concepts of justice.

"The GOP will remain in existence as the token opposition, useful for legitimizing the actual one-party regime, the essential element of the election rituals reminding us of the Republic we once enjoyed.

"Edward Isaac-Dovere of Politico has the scoop:

As Democrats aim to capitalize on this year’s Republican turmoil and start building back their own decimated bench, former Attorney General Eric Holder will chair a new umbrella group focused on redistricting reform—with the aim of taking on the gerrymandering that’s left the party behind in statehouses and made winning a House majority far more difficult.

The new group, called the National Democratic Redistricting Committee, was developed in close consultation with the White House. President Barack Obama himself has now identified the group—which will coordinate campaign strategy, direct fundraising, organize ballot initiatives and put together legal challenges to state redistricting maps—as the main focus of his political activity once he leaves office.

Military Academy: You Won’t Disrespect American Flag on our Football Field

Todd Starnes

"The young men who attend St. John’s Northwestern Military Academy in Wisconsin know the names of the fallen. 

"Their names are recited every spring - young men, alumni, who gave their lives defending America. 

"Jack Albert, the president the military academy, believes the blood shed by his cadets make their campus sacred ground.

"So when Albert learned that some of the high schools in their athletic conference were allowing students to disrespect the national anthem, he decided to draw a line in the sand.

“ 'To dishonor those men and their families by permitting any disrespect of the country they defended, especially on the Academy’s time honored fields of friendly strife, is in my opinion, unacceptable,” Albert wrote in a letter to parents and alumni.

“ 'It is our expectation when teams visit our campus, proper etiquette and respect is rendered to the nation’s colors and the national anthem,” he added.

" 'And then - the military academy president dropped the bombshell:

“ 'It is my intention to halt any game with any team whose players or coaches decide to disrespect the colors of our nation or the national anthem of our country in any way,” he informed the Academy family." . . .

Wall Street Journal Finally Breaks: "The Press Is Burying Hillary Clinton's Sins"

Zero Hedge  "Even the Wall Street Journal is now fed up with the biased media coverage of the 2016 Presidential election as revealed by a scathing article written by Kimberly Strassel, a member of their editorial board.  As Strassel points out, it's almost impossible to turn on the TV without hearing about Trump's "lewd" comments while coverage of Hillary "uniformly ignores the flurry of bombshells" inherent in the various WikiLeaks, FOIA releases and FBI interviews.

If average voters turned on the TV for five minutes this week, chances are they know that Donald Trump made lewd remarks a decade ago and now stands accused of groping women.

But even if average voters had the TV on 24/7, they still probably haven’t heard the news about Hillary Clinton: That the nation now has proof of pretty much everything she has been accused of.

It comes from hacked emails dumped by WikiLeaks, documents released under the Freedom of Information Act, and accounts from FBI insiders. The media has almost uniformly ignored the flurry of bombshells, preferring to devote its front pages to the Trump story. So let’s review what amounts to a devastating case against a Clinton presidency.

"Of course, the list of Hillary scandals is becoming way to long to remember though one of the biggest has been her establishment of the now infamous private email server and the subsequent intentional destruction of federal records despite the existence of a Congressional subpoena." . . .


The Clinton Record: A devastating exposé of the most unfit and undeserving individual ever to seek the American presidency.

"Never in American history has anyone as unfit and undeserving as Hillary Clinton run for U.S. President. While she stands on the threshold of being elected to the White House, she quite literally belongs in a prison cell. This article lays out the case against her, chapter and verse."

. . .

This, then, is Hillary Clinton: a woman who is wholly, unequivocally unfit to serve as anything more than an inmate in a federal penitentiary. She has demonstrated, time and again:

• that she cannot, under any circumstances, be trusted with national security or state secrets;
• that she treats the paper on which the Espionage Act is written, with no more reverence than she would give to a strip of toilet paper;
• that she treats with similar disregard the paper on which the U.S. Constitution is written;
• that her judgment in matters of international conflict, diplomacy, and terrorism is an abomination;
• that she routinely uses her “charitable foundation” as a money-laundering operation designed to enrich herself under the guise of helping the needy;
• that she will gladly sell out her country, and everyone in it, in exchange for material riches and political dominion;
• the she is intent upon using the most irresponsible refugee and immigration policies imaginable to import countless millions of people from hostile, impoverished nations across the globe for one core purpose: to permanently transform the American population into one that will vote reliably Democrat from now until the end of time;
• that she fully intends to purge the Second Amendment from the Bill of Rights;
• that she unequivocally plans to expand the disastrous, failing Obamacare debacle into an even more monstrous, government-run, single-payer healthcare system;
• that she favors soft-on-crime policies that have repeatedly been shown to cause violent crime rates to skyrocket;
• that she is perfectly willing to institutionalize massive, ubiquitous voter fraud because she believes that it will ensure additional power for her political party;
• that she views white Americans as a whole, as inherently, “implicitly,”137 and “irredeemably”138 racist, and therefore in constant need of an all-powerful government to restrain their bigoted impulses;
• that despite her professed aversion to racism in general, she is quite happy to ally herself with “politically correct” racists like Al Sharpton and the Black Lives Matter movement; and
• that she opposes the imposition of any restrictions whatsoever on abortion rights, or on the government's power to force taxpayers to fund abortions.

WikiLeaks: Team Hillary Discussed Ways to Refute Juanita Broaddrick’s Rape Claim

Clinton campaign collected data to discredit Bill Clinton accuser, WikiLeaks emails show  . . . "Among the documents Kendall sent was an affidavit that Broaddrick had submitted in a sexual harassment lawsuit filed by Paula Jones against Clinton, in which she indicated that she did not have “any information to offer regarding a non-consensual or unwelcome sexual advance by Mr. Clinton.'  ” . . .

Legal Insurrection

"Some women, it seems, don’t deserve to be believed"

. . . "Meanwhile, the New York Times is worried that poor Hillary can’t join in the fun of the furor over allegations of Trump’s sexual impropriety because of her own—and her husband’s—sordid past.

"The NYT opines:

In the past week, as a swirl of sexual assault accusations against Donald J. Trump has prompted a loud national discussion about male power and women’s rights, the first woman to be a major party’s presidential nominee was barely heard from.

Though Hillary Clinton has stood at the center of feminist debates for more than two decades, she has at times been an imperfect messenger for the cause. That has never been more apparent than now, as her old missteps and her husband’s history have effectively paralyzed her during a moment of widespread outrage.
