The Establishments war on Donald Trump Title: Why I like Trump Many of you have guessed, because I am predicting him to win, that I like Trump. And that is basically a true assumption, except I do criticize him for his anti-science stance on global warming. The main thing I like about Trump is his foreign policy which is correct in every way. We should indeed ban all Muslims, and I suggest going one step further, and making the ban permanent. You never know when a "peaceful" Muslim will turn on us and kill as many Christians as he can. This will of course require that the "Immigration Reform Act of 1965 that LBJ, a false prophet, pooped out --- which let Muslims in for the first time (legally). I think Trump should repeal that Act within his first hundred days, and also Obamacare, and Roe vs. Wade all the other bad things that the Democrats have enacted since the days of Johnson. (In my view, Kennedy was last "good" Democratic president). But we do need to keep the recent Paris agreement, which Trump has also threatened to veto. But I'm pretty sure he will change his mind when he sees all of his water-front property (including his campaign headquarters) going underwater, making most of his real estate investments , now worth $10 billion he says, worth about 10 cents. Otherwise, if he doesn't keep the Paris agreement, he wont have a dime left to leave his children.

It was imposed in 1973, during Richard Nixon's second term, by a Republican-majority Supreme Court. It was further extended in 1986, during Reagan's second term, by a Republican-dominated Supreme Court. Mitt Romney, Republican governor of Massachusetts, imposed his "Romneycare", which included public financing of abortion, and Obamacare is patterned on that. Obamacare, with its public financing of abortion, was challenged and went to the Supreme Court, where a Republican majority could have shot it down. Instead, Chief Justice John Roberts, a W appointee, sided with the Democrat minority to give Obamacare judicial sanction. Looking back to 1973, it is the Republican Party, not the Democrats, that imposed Roe v Wade, then expanded it, then ensured public financing of abortion. In the first three cases, it was Republican ACTIVISM that imposed it. In the final case, it was the Republicans refusal to assert their power to prevent it. The Republicans have played a good game at deceiving conservatives for decades, focusing conservative eyes on the fact that Democrats enthusiastically support Roe. Truth is, the Democrat didn't impose Roe on the country, and haven't been the ones to protect Roe, keep it alive and extend it. It has been the Republicans, through their control of the Supreme Court. They have been decisive. Unfortunately, this gets lost in the weeds behind Republican rhetoric. Trump is the first Republican candidate to say he is pro-life, and to ALSO accompany that statement with a list of conservative judges from which he will choose his Supreme Court appointments. So, with Trump we actually have a Republican President who will DO something about Roe judicially (which is the only place it can be struck down). As far as the global warming bit, sea levels have been steadily rising 3 millimeters per year since we started keeping track of this in the 1800s. It's not rising faster. At that rate, the sea level will rise 1 foot in a hundred years. Trump's waterfront buildings won't be underwater for 10,000 years.
#4. To: Vicomte13 (#3) Well, I will double-check when I have the time, but I'm pretty sure most of the justices who voted for Roe vs Wade were Democrats. Anyhow, Trump says he will reverse it (by appointing pro-life justices). That's another reason I like Trump. And scientists predict that, if Trump shoots down the Paris agreement and nothing is done about global warming, sea levels will rise by up to 22 feet in about a hundred years or so. Maybe not in Donald's lifetime, but in his children's lifetime. That will flood half of Florida and all of Manhattan (where 90 % of Trump's properties are). So I'm pretty sure he will soon change his mind about global warming.
#5. To: interpreter (#4) Well, I will double-check when I have the time, but I'm pretty sure most of the justices who voted for Roe vs Wade were Democrats. The Supreme Court was controlled by the Republicans in 1973. And every year since. The court has been entirely replaced since then, also, by Republican Presidents who all claimed to be pro- life, and yet they did not put a pro-life majority on the Supreme Court, not ever. Whenever they put up a pro-lifer, they then put one or two pro-choicers - consistently. The Republicans gave us Roe, they extended Roe, and they made sure that a pro-choice majority stayed on the court.

Trump will repeal (or reverse) Roe vs Wade irregardless of who is responsible for the abomination.
Replies to Comment # 8. Even if what you say is true, it makes no difference whatsoever. Trump will repeal (or reverse) Roe vs Wade irregardless of who is responsible for the abomination. "Irregardless" is not a word. You meant "regardless". Trump cannot "repeal" or "reverse" Roe. Only the Supreme Court can do that. Trump can appoint justices to the Supreme Court whom he expects to do that, when a case comes up, but he cannot enforce it.
