Guts


Watching footage of President Trump walking around North Carolina neighborhoods and greeting residents, I was struck by the man’s courage.

Yes, he has Secret Service protection. Consider, none of this was scripted or set up in advance. To just go out and do it takes guts. To me it shows leadership, putting his personal ass on the line,  while trusting the Secret Service to protect him.

The people protecting him have their work cut out for them. There must be satisfaction in protecting someone who trusts and appreciates them.

 Contrast that to the years of reports of Shillary’s abominable treatment of those tasked protecting her.

Not saying it didn’t happen but I can’t recall any instance of the Lightbringer doing anything similar.

Comrade MaoBama and his ilk hated the Secret Service, and most of the White House staff, just like they treated the military with contempt.

I'm sure President Trump has their full support, just as they have his.

I don't particularly like him. I appreciate the job he is doing. It is refreshing to hear non scripted focus group tested speech. I voted for, anybody but Shillary, but I will vote for him again if he decides to run in 2020.

Yeah, sometimes he looks the fool, that's for sure.

But he's like your top-rated sales guy, who always beats everybody else. Yeah, he's loud, obnoxious, boorish, and other things, but he sure does a bang-up job, so you keep him around.

Spot on!
From time to time I was that sales guy. As one owner said to me, "You better make sure your productivity keeps exceeding your obnoxiousness".

I figured you'd get the comparison.
