With the way this campaign is going and the most recent turn of
events, it’s looking more and more likely that we’ll see a President Hillary.
Here’s what seems to have happened. In Utah, a superpac put out an
ad for Senator Ted Cruz. Utah is a very religious state. It is the home of the
Mormons. It’s considered one of the most prominent states when it comes to
religious beliefs and it’s solidly Republican.
Leading up to the Primary vote in Utah yesterday, an ad was put
out by a Super Pac for Senator Ted Cruz. That ad showed a photo of Donald Trump’s
wife, Melania, posing for GQ magazine fifteen
years ago. She was not married to Trump at the time. She was undressed and provocatively
positioned. This is naturally designed for the voters of Utah so they’d choose
Senator Cruz in the primary, which he won with 69% of the vote.
Today, Donald Trump, upon hearing of this ad, tweeted out threatening
to “spill the beans” on Heidi Cruz, wife of Ted Cruz.
There are two types of people in this world that I consider
despicable. They are wasting oxygen as far as I’m concerned. Those people are
those that would abuse children and those that would abuse women. If you’re
going to exert power over a child or a woman just because you can, you deserve
to be shunned. Banned from society. You’re a worthless being and I purposely
left out “human” before being.
Before you get the idea that I’m going to defend one of these
candidates over the other, you’re wrong. Both of them, Trump and Cruz, are dead
wrong and severely lacking in character in this drama.
Once that ad came out, Ted Cruz should have
grabbed every
microphone and camera he could get his hands on and denounced the ad and
demanded that the ad be pulled, destroyed and never again shown with the Super
Pac issuing a profound apology. He should have harped on them until they did as
he required! But he didn’t.
Now, I understand that candidates are not supposed to be in
contact with the Super Pac’s. The name of the Super Pac is “Make America
Awesome”. It’s a violation of the law for them to have any control over Super
Pac’s. If Cruz standing up and demanding that they pull that ad and hammering
home that message until it’s pulled, is against the law, then he should have
violated the law and paid the fine. To do anything less than to stand up for
what’s right is the same as giving your okay for this ad. YOU DO NOT ATTACK
WOMEN!! It was done in Cruz’s name and he should have stood up against that ad
because it was done for his benefit. To do anything less makes him just as
guilty of attacking a woman as the Super Pac.
Donald Trump did try to defend his wife, but the way he chose to
do it was just as wrong as Cruz. He threatened to attack Cruz’s wife Heidi. If
abusing a woman is wrong, isn’t abusing a woman in retaliation just as wrong?
These women are not the candidates. They are the wives of the
candidates. They may be campaigning with them but they are not the candidate.
They are their wives.
In 1824, Andrew Jackson ran against John Quincy Adams for the
Presidency. He lost. He ran again in 1828. The first time was a hard fought
battle. The second was worse. Jackson’s wife was short and fat. Jackson was
older for that time in history. Life expectancy was less than his age at the
time. He was losing his teeth. He had a rough past.
When he met his wife he fell in love. They got married. His wife
had been married before to an abusive husband. It wasn’t like today where you
can get a divorce at the drop of a hat. She tried to get a divorce and her
husband wouldn’t give it to her. Finally she left him for the last time and he
filed for divorce. She met and married Andrew Jackson thinking she was divorced
but her first husband had failed to finalize the divorce. When this was
discovered, she had the divorce finalized and then remarried Jackson in 1794.
In 1806 a man named Charles Dickinson claimed that Jackson had
reneged on a bet and then called Jackson’s wife, Rachel, a bigamist. Jackson
challenge him to a duel for his wife’s honor. Jackson was shot in the chest but
still managed to shoot and kill his opponent. For his wife’s honor! Jackson had
problems the rest of his life from that gunshot wound, but he survived.
During the election of 1828, Rachel campaigned with and for her
husband. Adams and his people brought up the bigamy and used it in the campaign
calling Rachel a bigamist. It was
grueling and when the election was finally won, Rachel had a heart attack and died.
Jackson was distraught and held on to his wife after she died. He had to be
pulled away from her.
She was buried on Christmas eve and at the burial Jackson said, “May
God Almighty forgive her murders. I never can.”
Jackson didn’t stop there. You can read about the Petticoat affair
and find another example of his standing up for a woman’s honor. This time a
member of his cabinet’s wife.
During the Clinton years, the nation was told to leave Chelsea Clinton
out of any stories. She was not to be attacked. Hillary was involved and put in
charge of the travel office, and of course health care both of which were
debacles. She’s now close to being indicted for her actions with the E-mail and
possibly for her actions as Secretary of State and using that position to raise
money for the Clinton Foundation. Those are possibly illegal acts that she
committed. She’s to be held accountable.
But what has Melania Trump done? Posed for a picture fifteen years
ago before she even knew Trump? What has Heidi Cruz done other than marry Ted
Cruz?
To go after these women, either yourself or using surrogates is
just plan despicable.
We are in danger of losing our country and our freedoms and our way
of life in this election. Yet we have three candidates on the Republican side
that are acting like anything but a decent human being. They are almost making
Hillary Clinton look like a normal person and we all know that she’s nowhere
near being anything a President should be.
We have terrorists attacking around the world including in this
country with the promise of more. We have a southern border where any terrorist
or even criminal can walk across the border like it was hopping a hopscotch
line. Do you really think Hillary will have a strategy to combat ISIS? Her plan is to have them as happy immigrants that vote for Democrats! We have a health care system that is already creating joblessness and
poverty. We have veterans that served this country to protect us and keep us
free being treated worse than dogs in a kennel by our Veterans Administration. We
have a Democrat party that is using race baiting to drum up votes at the
expense of not just the white Americans but the black Americans and Hispanic Americans
as well. And these two clowns, Cruz and Trump are attacking each others wives?
Ronald Reagan created an 11th commandment. That
commandment is “Thou shalt not speak ill of a fellow Republican.” Are we really so bad off that we need a
twelfth commandment to keep the men from attacking women?
Let me be clear if I haven’t already been. If you’re abusing your
wife, you’re worthless. If you’re abusing women, you’re worthless. If you’re
abusing another’s wife, you’re worthless. If you don’t stand up for a woman
when she’s being attacked, you’re a coward! That’s not presidential material
and that will only get Hillary elected President. If you like being dictated to
by the government, then you’re on the right track because if Hillary wins, that’s
exactly what will happen.
You’re welcome to comment.
