"Why Not Electing Trump May Trigger A Revolution" could be an alternative title for the slightly dated article: WHO IS DONALD TRUMP (read it here). I say it is dated only because it was written in December 2015 when Jeb Bush was still in the running. You could easily substitute almost anyone else's name running on the Republican ticket for Bush's with the exceptions, I think, of Cruz and Trump.
The author of the article, Don Fredrick, while explaining who or what is Donald Trump, covers many of the reasons why The Donald is so popular at this moment. In other words, he also explains why the other candidates are not in favor. It pretty much arrives at the conclusion that the American people, a great many of us anyway, are sick and tired of the leftists liberals and of the RINOs who claim to be conservatives but who tag along with the leftist's in almost every regard. I think the author is spot on. Still though, right now, I am a bit more in the Cruz camp and I would rather vote for Cruz, at least if in fact he is actually is eligible to be elected as president.
Yet, I would not have a problem voting for Trump and Trump has become more and more appealing to me as the campaign rolls on. It's not because he is necessarily the best candidate, at least not in my mind yet. I believe Cruz to be better, but because I am really starting to believe that if Trump would do even half of what he has said he would do, it would most assuredly put us on the path to regaining the Great Nation status that America once held when it flourished. Yes, I too am sick and tired of the status quo of our current flock of politicians and bureaucrats who have been destroying America.
Thus, I think that Mr. Fredrick is right about most Americans being sick and tired of the same old political bullshit and I believe that he possibly may also be right that if we don't vote Trump (or at least another anti-establishment candidate) into office, that if the establishment wins, we are doomed. I'll take that a step further, I'll say that we are either doomed and that we will revolt if someone the likes of Rubio, Kasich, Clinton or heavens forbid Bernie Sanders, the free everything for everyone candidate, wins the presidency. No I did not mention Carson, who is still in the running, but the man would be chewed up and spit out by Clinton and probably by Sanders. He may have a good platform but he comes off as a weakling, a well meaning wimp at best.
My thinking is just an extension of Mr. Fredrick's - I believe yes America, as we know it is doomed if anyone but either Trump or even Cruz is elected. The thing is, I am also certain that Americans, at least a small percentage of us, will not take much more of the same old or even worse political pandering that has brought America to its current status - which is on its knees. I think that if one of those other candidates is elected, there will be a revolt before the completion of two terms and maybe even before the completion of one. It certainly is not something I want to see happen. The way I see it, only Cruz or Trump seem to be capable of stopping it while still being able to turn America around.
Maybe though, as Mr. Fredrick believes, Trump is the only one who can do it. We need a radical shift away from our present course and The Donald seems to be the only one showing any signs of willingness to take the helm and steer full steam and hard away from maelstrom in which we find ourselves today.
All the best,
