What do you think?
If you haven’t been following Bill Whittle lately, he has started doing these daily videos where he is asked a question without knowing what it will be in advance, and responds off the cuff.

Bill Whittle certainly makes sense. No matter what else, President Trump is “Not Hillery”. That alone explains why we have to support him. But, even if he is eccentric, which he seems to be, and he is used to doing things his own way, which he certainly is, and what he does doesn’t always make sense in the beginning but usually does later, I think he was the best choice hands down. And, to be completely honest, I think his eccentricity, doing things his own way, and not always being understood in the beginning are the very things that make him right for the Presidency at this time.

Well said aus. The pundits don’t get it. Throw out the grading scale. Throw out the models, the “should do” the standards for measuring presidents. The old one produced nothing good. Look with a fresh set of eyes, because anything that was “presidential” is tainted.

And, another thought. I believe we got a twofer in brains. I think Melania was a little nervous at first and we couldn’t see how strong and intelligent she really is. I have grown to admire her tremendously and I think she is a very strong “woman behind the man.”

I don’t doubt some staffers do not like the management style of President Trump, and I am sure some cannot deal with his bluntness and get right to the point and fix it attitude. i worked for a man like that once and it was brutal. I probably wouldn’t ever choose to do that again at this stage of my life. However, that man pushed me harder than any other boss, he made me far better than I ever thought I could be, and I was already a very high performing manager. He was very good for me personally, and our store was in tip top shape, front to back, up to down.
Should President Trump get a second term, I think he can impact what is wrong in our country, in the same way, I just don’t think even 8 years is time enough to do all that should be done. And unlike my store manager, who had a very supportive staff, he is largely isolated because of the Dems and the media.
I didn’t vote for him because he is nice. I wasn’t voting in a popularity contest, and I couldn’t care less how much television he watches. Looks to me, from the results, that he sure has paid attention to a lot of things other politicians and presidents were too puny to tackle. I also don’t give a crap whether he hears out his staff to the end or races ahead of them.
Not my monkey, not my circus. I just expect the performance to be a good one, and thus far, I am happy I bought a ticket. Like Bill said, he ain’t Hillary, no matter what.

Funny it never occurs to people like Peggy Noonan that there are people who live by their honor and ethics and would never ever betray a confidence or trust.
Noonan also assumes that no one understands Pres Trump nor what he does. Noonan would be terrified at just how many of us actually do understand Pres Trump, and can predict his actions based on what we ourselves would do.
But one must agree with mom above, Whittle, and Gen Flynn – Pres Trump is not Clinton (and mom did say it better!). That is the best answer. imo And seriously, what other reason is needed?

You know, I don’t know if the MSM really doesn’t understand P.Trump’s sense of humor, or they just ignore it on purpose. He has said so many things that were just hilarious even back during the campaign. I used to LOL at him.

I’ll just say I disagree with Whittle’s entire hand wringing attitude.
Good grief.
Is it possible that things are much much worse than the public has been shown?
What have we been shown Whittle?
A bad choice versus a fatal choice…
What?
President Trump is doing the impossible, he brought Kim Un to his knees there is a train that is running from NK to SK.
We are burning our men and women home from perpetual war zones that are a cycle of country smashing and building.
The economy is booming.
We are energy independent.
We are actually doing something about our trade deficit.
There is a huge movement called #walkaway solely because of the rabid left’s unhinged attack on President Trump, his supporters and our Constitutional Rights.
We are decimating ISIS.
Wars are being waged against sanctuary cities, our open borders, and catch and release programs.
That is just off the top of my head.
There is still a whole lot wrong with our country, and there is no way that President Trump can fix the evil, ignorance and immorality that has taken our country to the precipice of hell in only 8 years but good grief he is doing as much as anyone could expect from a mortal. And he is doing it all in the face of unprecedented, unmasked, unbridled opposition from the democrats, the republicans, the MSM, Antifa and a sundry of well funded and coordinated nincompoops and ne’er-do-wells.
If President Trump acted within the Site House as Whittle proposed it would be impossible for the President Trump to give such astounding impromptu pressers. Impossible for President Trump to constantly be a step ahead of his detractors.
President Trump understands what is going on in the world far more than any of his predecessors and he understands the consequences of the corruption and incompetence that came before him.
Saudi Arabia and Israel are working together. President Trump has know the Saudis for decades.
So as far as I’m concerned both Whittle and Noonan can shove their “What is really happening in the White House!!??? Is President Trump really sitting around eating Kentucky Fried Chicken, watching CNN 24/7 and in need of duct taping to keep his raging head from exploding???!??!!”
right where the sun doesn’t shine.

I don’t like how Noonan pokes Trump in the eye yet yawns “But he is better than Hillary.”
I agree with the sentiments of this article. It appears that nothing has changed in Noonan since it was written in October of 2017.
The case of Peggy Noonan.

Amongst Republicans there are two kinds of Trump-haters: the never-Trumpers who boast that they’ll never support him, and the non-never-Trumpers who say they’ll do so, but only by holding their noses. By their timidity, the latter reveal the tragic flaw that has prevented Republicans from winning elections. They’ll advance their arguments in favor of the Trump issues, and then go on to express their contempt for the man who had the courage to articulate them. Winners don’t do this sort of equivocating.

What about Whittle? You lumped them together. Should he “shove it”?
While I don’t always agree with Bill, he’s a serious person. By the way, I don’t always agree with the way President Trump conducts himself either.
You are a serious person, and you and I usually agree, but I don’t think your previous comment was serious or well thought out.

Well, as I’ve said (don’t know if you saw that post of mine in particular) I’m getting about 3 hours of sleep a night due to this dang cold and I do agree that my post was not as well thought out or even typed as well as it could have or should have been.
I do not lump Whittle in with Noonan so my apologizes on the sloppiness there.
Here is the thing that bothers me.
I am tried of people, especially the Noonan types doing something that I myself have done. Saying that at least Trump is better than Hillary.
President Trump may have been our only alternative but he isn’t a bad alternative like Bush or McCain he is a vibrant and patriotic alternative. I feel like President Trump has proven himself again and again and yet people who would be lauding his achievements if they were Bush or McCain achievements always have to add a caveat to any compliment of him.
What really annoyed me about Whittle’s presentation was what I posted;
Is it possible that things are much much worse than the public has been shown?
A bad choice versus a fatal choice…
As I said what have we been shown and why is President Trump a bad choice versus a fatal choice?
Statements like this are in my opinion ignoring the elephant in the room which is a) the forces aligned against President Trump and b) the progress he is making in spite of the unparalleled opposition he is fighting against to get America back on track.

What NeverTrumpers like Noonan say influences no one except her own crowd and gives the Left a few more talking points. Do they think a steelworker who once again has a job gives a fig what they think. They are out to get Republicans to dump Trump in the 2020 primary…and to aid the Dems.
No President has ever done more for his nation in two years than President Trump. I’m happy for the people who have gotten jobs, who net more in their paychecks because of lowered taxes, for the minorities who have been invited to the White House to express their opinions, and for the military personnel who know he has their backs.
I like the President. If any of them don’t…too bad…so sad…he’s still your President…and if you want the country to go to H, then you’re on the right track. As Ott once said about OUR President, “why doesn’t he just shut up,” I say the same to the whiny NeverTrump crowd. You’re not helping the good people of America.
