Don’t forget about this story behind the Hillary Clinton scandal.Just two hours before the FBI dropped a bomb on Hillary Clinton—destroying her presidential run in 2016, Loretta Lynch did something very interesting.Read below, and spread the word.Good work to the Washington Free Beacon for reporting it.Because nobody else did.
Attorney General Loretta Lynch is declining to comply with an investigation by leading members of Congress about the Obama administration’s secret efforts to send Iran $1.7 billion in cash earlier this year, prompting accusations that Lynch has “pleaded the Fifth” Amendment to avoid incriminating herself over these payments, according to lawmakers and communications exclusively obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
I stopped being a fan of Glenn Beck when he insisted that Donald Trump was a progressive no different from Hillary Clinton—or Teddy Roosevelt.Trump is not an ideological creature—he’s a product of the business world which is where I live–where he’s used endless amounts of optimism to see himself through many personal pitfalls over his life.When I saw that Trump was serious about running for president my support grew for him by the month because strategically the New York billionaire was proposing an actual solution that I had been arguing for over many, many years—that businessmen and women should be in many of these management political positions—because only they can really fix anything based on their experience in the private sector.Glenn Beck had been good at predicting events in the “political” world but that world had changed beyond his definitions and Trump was the means to redefining our entire American philosophy—and that was a good thing.

I was quite surprised by Michael Moore, the open socialist filmmaker who stated that he not only thought that Trump would win the election—but that he’d win big.Trump according to Moore—which I’m almost reluctant to say I agree with—is a “F” “U” to the establishment and that people are excited to vote in favor of their personal legalized weapon to blow up the system that has let them down so epically.As Moore said these things the evidence came forward that the FBI had colluded with the Clinton campaign during Hillary’s email investigation, President Obama lied to everyone about his knowledge of the personal Clinton computer server designed to destroy evidence, and that Obamacare utterly disintegrated just two weeks ahead of a major election—which I’m deeply suspicious of.But all the things Trump has been speaking out about came to a resounding fortissimo as he spoke at his newly built hotel in Washington D.C. leaving a kind of mic drop of his own toward all the forces who have been trying to destroy him utterly.
Except for me, I don’t know anybody who works as hard as Donald Trump—and that impresses me.Anybody who works as hard as Trump does, and dreams as big isn’t bad by any measure.The day before Trump opened his new hotel with his children he was conducting five events in Florida and called into radio shows like one at 9 AM on WLW in Cincinnati and Rush Limbaugh during the 2 PM hour all broadcasting all over the nation.Here was a guy with boundless energy who wanted to win that badly—and I understand that kind of passion.I can relate to that kind of “drive” and it is my wildest fantasy to have someone in the White House who never sleeps and works all day long seeing state dinners as a mere formality.Most people in Trump’s position would have made opening a major luxury hotel like the one in Washington a daylong event and would have enjoyed celebrating.But not Trump.He cut the ribbon with his kids then jumped on his plane for a rally in North Carolina just an hour later.Imagine that guy in the White House where he wouldn’t be tempted by the glamor of life in the most powerful office in the world.He can do his obligations, but as soon as dinner is over, he’d be back to work.That is my dream candidate—a Calvin Coolidge type of hard-working president with the communication ability of Ronald Reagan and the unlimited drive of Teddy Roosevelt.
The panic from the political left was beginning to erupt which was in evidence with the now famous Newt Gingrich/Megan Kelly blow up on Fox News during the 10/25/2016 broadcast.It was a jaw dropping exchange where Newt actually stopped Kelly mid sentence from calling Trump a “sexual predator.”Kelly was obviously looking for a torpedo hit on Trump and with so much bad news coming out on Hillary she was getting desperate to defend her pick.She hid her intentions behind some version of journalistic integrity which came out sounding like a cheap toy coming out of a bubble gum machine.The Trump campaign had turned a corner and it was obvious by the headlines from The New York Times the next day who tried to spin the story to Kelly’s advantage, but the raw footage was damning—and revealing.
As Trump closed out his speech it was obvious to me that there was no question that Trump was going to win the election—and if he didn’t, there would be major trouble.Half the country just wasn’t prepared to put up with a criminal being elected president and Trump knew it.All people had to do was dream big with him and there would be opportunities for everyone.If they picked Clinton, there will be endless scandal and further embarrassments as heads rolled within the DNC.The worst news for them was yet to come as Trump strutted boldly through the crowd toward the ribbon cutting portion of the ceremony. A private sector person is just so much better than a political hack any day of the week, and for the first time in any of our lifetimes, we’d get a chance to see it.
It was quite clear to me that every election should be between people like Trump who had proven themselves successful in business and brought outside the box solutions to political theater.Michael Moore had hit on several important points showing that even the most polarized among us can certainly come together under the canopy of big dreams and Trump had offered that to the American people just two weeks from the most important election of our lives.And he did it with a twinkle in his eye reminiscent of Uncle Walt from years long gone with a promise to make America great again if only people were bold enough to vote for him.
This is what leadership looks like, and what could be expected from a Donald Trump administration.Meet the Women for Trump girls who provided supplies to areas of North Carolina stricken by the recent hurricane.You didn’t hear much about this from the mainstream media, because honestly, they didn’t want you to see it.But it was certainly one of the most positive events to happen over the last week—and it was a sign of things to come from a Trump presidency.
I must point out to you dear reader who may have a hard time believing all this about Bill Clinton just remember the case of Steubenville, Ohio.Remember that one—because I told you all about it.Football players—idolized by the small town around the high school football program in that Ohio outpost—raped a girl abusively and the police, school and entire community attempted to cover up the case.It was Anonymous that brought forward the evidence and the rest is now history.Justice was done.This is the same kind of case, the entire media and political system is seeking to support Hillary Clinton—and they are willingly covering up crimes to bring about their desired political results.And it’s time to punish them for their open participation in criminal activity.In that regard, Bill Clinton is very guilty and his wife—and enabler–wants to be president of the United States.She wants to be so bad she’ll destroy any life she has to—and that is the story of October 2016.She’s on the ropes with all the Wikileaks proof that is pouring forth and she is in serious danger of losing this election.And she’s panicking—which is a form of justice all by itself.It’s about time bad people like her sweat something out.What a bomb that would be when and if that video were released.What would she say then—blame the Russians, the Chinese, or even the Australians?That would be interesting given that it was her husband who flew to that sex island in the Caribbean so many times with her knowledge fully understood. Yet she didn’t do a damn thing about the crimes that were committed against those little girls.And she has a special place in Hell with her name on the door because of it.
It was just a few days earlier when conservatives were outraged at the openness that Duke University feminists established a new program called The Man’s Project which is designed to essentially further feminize men out of existence with a nine-week program aimed at destroying traditional role models men play within our society. This has been going on in public schools of all kinds for essentially the last forty years but has picked up a lot of steam over the last 15 or so and the results have been catastrophic. Divorce rates are too high, role models of men to their sons and daughters has been woefully eroded away greatly harming children psychologically—which was always by design because in the wake of the strong man of the house and neighborhood was always the promise that father government would be there with a welfare check. Essentially government has been seducing our women in America for generations with promises and whispers in their ears through television programs like Oprah, and Dr. Phil—setting up for the complete eradication of male ownership of children and wives within traditional family structure to be replaced with a second marriage to big daddy government and all the empty promises a typical sleaze bag doing such a thing might promise. And the only way they can pull off such a ruse is by getting men out of the house—and break them down completely then rebuild them from the ground up under progressive direction. Programs like this Duke University class are now spreading all over the country and is a major problem for upcoming generations if we don’t correct the matter now—and that is part of what a Trump Presidency promises much to the fears of progressives behind this movement.
When I was first married in the late 80s I experienced a version of this radical hatred of alpha maleness firsthand. Family and friends of my wife who was a budding fashion model when she met me and had all the promises of having a career in New York on the cover of major magazines did not like my unusual maleness, even back then when it was far more common than it is today. One of the reasons my wife and I married so early was that she wanted a family and so did I. She didn’t want a career where she served some boss in some corner office—she wanted to work for herself building a traditional family—and that was essentially all she cared about as a biological woman. We shared that sentiment and against the wishes of virtually everyone—we married and started having kids in a traditional manner.
You would have thought that I had committed the worst crime of the century and for really the first ten years of our marriage “the world” came down on us hard. After all, a woman knows her family for at least two decades before she gets a husband so every time there was some challenge in our marriage—where I needed to work more overtime to cover our costs, or child expenses forced us to decide whether or not to get a jug of milk or purchase baby food—there was some friend or family member trying to pull my wife into a more progressive version of family construction—where big government was at the center of her life—where a woman didn’t need a “man” because there were programs for her “independence” and people openly encouraged her to leave me over little things—normal life events that came at us at an alarming rate. To make matters worse my wife was strikingly attractive and virtually every man on planet earth tried to seduce her—especially older ones who were comfortable in life and had a lot to offer a woman with a few kids and a lot of headaches. The pressure was immense and I spent many, many evenings so deep in hard feelings that suicide was a constant temptation—and we’re not talking about a few weeks or months of tribulation—I’m talking about years and years of no light at the end of the tunnel.
However, if you’ve ever heard the song from The Lego Movie, “Everything is Awesome” that is essentially my calling card to success in just about everything I do. It is the way I live my life every day—I have an extremely positive outlook on life and I can find joy in the deepest wells of sorrow. I’ve had that ability my entire life and it never served me better than in those hard years of my 20s and early 30s over this issue of outside elements attacking my family essentially for insisting on being a traditional role-model for our children. So instead of committing suicide which anybody in my situation would have justifiably performed many times over—I woke up every single morning essentially singing that song to myself—even though it hadn’t been written yet—and I attacked my many problems within that framework.
I spent ten years studying Joseph Campbell’s power of myth studies and I learned that the roles the sexes play in their relationships, however transitory it is to our life on planet earth—has a major impact on the way culture shapes itself to our evolution. Campbell was what I considered a “super academic” who was a maverick in thinking but read on the scope of the world’s greatest scholars and after reading him I was sure that the solution to my problems was to be an epic male and that through the power of myth that I could hold my family together and that in the end everything would work out because psychologically, everyone involved in was essentially looking for a strong male in their lives, or they were trying to get rid of it so that they could take control of my family—and so long as I understood that the strategic objective was my “maleness” then I knew what I had to defend to obtain victory—which I of course did.
My victory, which was extremely hard to see in the early 90s, gradually destroyed my many enemies by their own volition–those assailants who had attacked my family from the get go and they are now miserable heaps of human flesh—if they lived long enough. Some didn’t live and they collapsed under their own misery and all I had to do to destroy them was hold to my values. They wanted me out-of-the-way so that they could destroy what I built and take possession themselves of my efforts as parasites—which is essentially what is happening to Donald Trump now.
Trump’s campaign at its core is about alpha maleness fixing the rot for which the progressive experiments of our age of have destroyed—the massive debt, the poor economic growth, the loss of integrity that comes from a wimpy political class—Trump is an alpha male that has arrived on the political scene completely uncorrupted by weakness to find our nation overrun by despots in the wake of strong male influence—which world mythic study informs us is a key ingredient to a successful society. That isn’t to say that women have no role in the modern world—but the problems of our time are specifically caused by the destructive experiments by the progressive left in eradicating “male presence and influence.” For men and women to truly be equal, women would have to fill that role traditionally held by men as the strong anchor for which families take root. Some women do perform this role nicely, but such thinking is genetically attached to men so it traditionally comes second nature. The failure comes from government’s attempt to replace the family completely—by micromanaging families into sending the woman into the workplace to serve a master, and sending the man into the workplace to serve another master—and then sending the kids at 3 and 4 years old to pre-school to learn to serve a different master leaving the family pulled in many different directions all controlled by a centralized government.
Trump is the last of his kind essentially—he represents a time when alpha males were much more common and to be one you had to essentially beat out other men for the top prizes—and that sometimes meant stealing away their wives to prove that you were the top alpha in your region—that you had the best house, the best cars—the best businesses. Those are all vile things to the capitalist hating political left—but they are all inventions of the human race who have dreamed them up and put them to use—and are now part of our biological concerns. The political left recognizing this has sought to reverse the human race from reaching to the stars to looking back to the ground for which they stand with environmental concerns about “mother earth” hoping to put a halt to the inventions derived from capitalist excess which naturally weakens the need people have for a centrally controlled tribal leader in the form of elected officials.
What Trump has is similar to what I have—and these things are similar to what most men had back in the day when men were men, women were women and everyone knew what their roles were specific to their families—which made them all stronger. Having indomitable spirit to always preserver no matter how bad things are traditionally is the optimism a powerful alpha male brings to his family and is something they can count on to always outlast any kind of tribulation. And this is why Trump is able to wake up on a Sunday after a day like he had yesterday where essentially the entire political world crashed down around him because as a strong alpha male who has literally weathered every storm most people could ever hope to endure—because his existence is not predicated on the controls of the political class—but extends to the roots of his entire being—and step into this upcoming debate with a swagger that most find unimaginable. In this case Trump is the King Solomon of our time—the vessel of God himself—in all his glorious maleness to give birth to a nation that progressives wanted to see aborted before it was even out of the womb—then to take that nation and teach it to be an alpha in the world and eventually to the galaxy at large as the human race migrates into space. Trump is bigger than the political class and it terrifies all those who have hooked their stars to that thinking—because Trump as president will dominate that star by his very presence. So understand dear reader that is what is going on over this rather trivial issue about Trump’s “past” comments. The outrage only exists among those invested into this new progressive thinking where traditional family structure is intended to be replaced by daddy government—the other man who wants to steal our wives, enslave our children, and dominate every phase of our existence. And Trump, like me, obviously has the great gift that all pillars of strength have within their families and businesses—the ability to look at any problem—no matter how troubling—and to think—Everything is Awesome—because it is.
Enjoy the debate. It will be one for the history books! We’ve never seen anything like it in the history of the human race, from the mythology of the great alpha male Zeus to the king facing the ultimate goddess of Tubber Tintye. In fact, as I read Melania’s statement yesterday it was quite clear that she served the Tubber Tintye role for Donald Trump perfectly—which is the real role traditional women have had. They have always had the ultimate power. I wouldn’t have worked so hard for my wife if she was not my personal Lady of Tubber Tintye and obviously Trump has his Melania—the only woman really worth fighting for to step beyond the average concerns that typical alpha males typically experience except for those who keep reaching for that ultimate boon residing on that spinning golden couch which hold within her the solutions for the human race. Trump had the courage to go there—and it has obviously transformed him over the last decade—and that makes him ripe to be president. In case you don’t know that story, click here and I’ll tell it to you. It’s certainly worth your time.
Looking objectively at the issue of Hillary Clinton—at just the evidence before us without the speculative motivations—we see a candidate in peril. As I’m not a Democrat and think that their ideas are inherently un-American leaning too far toward socialist Europe and not the capitalist bastion that is expected out of the North American continent, I can at least observe with bland factuality the reality of the Clinton campaign which just after Labor Day 2016—as I predicted—Trump is ahead in the national polls by two points according to CNN with bit lips and behind the scenes curse words. On the first Tuesday after Labor Day, just two months before the presidential election Clinton tried to shrug off her botched airplane press conference which ended in a coughing fit seeking water—her health in question, then turned down the invite to Mexico stating that Trump had already tainted the water—and therefor she would not participate. This after the news dump on Friday revealed in her FBI testimony that she literally couldn’t remember anything pertinent to her case. As a lawyer we all know that she will not say anything incriminating so to plead the fifth is an appropriate defense in the world of law—but in the court of public opinion it shows clearly that she is either too physically ill to be president of the United States—or she is too deep in a cover-up much larger than Watergate—and should be going to jail, not the White House.
I could see it on her face during the airplane press conference, she doesn’t have what it takes to run for POTUS. The first question that arises is why couldn’t she find the time on the ground to have a press conference—why in the air on her “new” campaign plane? She had just partied with Bon Jovi in the Hamptons at several fund raisers—why would she wait to have a press conference on an airplane rather than wait for some point on the ground? The answer is a simple one, Hillary Clinton doesn’t have anywhere important to really go and when she gets there the crowds are small and unexcited. If she held a press conference on the ground the background noise would be embarrassingly silent compared to the Trump press conferences where thousands of people show up just to watch him get out of his motorcade. The Hillary people wanted her to look presidential, and busy so they held the press conference on the plane. Additionally, they also wanted to control the press, to limit it to a small group which the airplane did for them naturally. Only a few reporters therefor could get access to Hillary meaning there were fewer opportunities to open her mouth, which the more she does, the less people like her. Her people know that so they are trying to compete with Trump without showing how weak their candidate really is. But we can all see it, and its showing in the polls. Then, to make matters worse, she couldn’t even get through that without having to stop due to her incessant coughing.
On the ground later Clinton tried to explain the reasons she refused the presidential invite to Mexico by stating that Trump had already “choked” in his visit last week and that she didn’t want to make matters worse. Everyone around the world saw Trump meeting with the Mexican president and the visit was hardly a “choke.” On the contrary, it was very presidential and backs everything that Trump had been saying we could expect out of his White House—a strong position that puts America first. What Hillary revealed was that she couldn’t match the effort so her people decided that it would be better not to show up than to look less presidential than Trump rationalizing it would be better to not have an impression than to have a bad one that didn’t measure up to her rival. That is the clear sign of a team that is already playing from behind. How many football games have we all watched where a clear team jumped out to a big lead then went to a prevent defense then lost to a team much hungrier. That is what is happening to the Hillary Clinton campaign and it won’t get any better from here.
She doesn’t have the endurance for a competitive race, and Trump has made it competitive. She is not creative enough to out-maneuver the lean thinking Trump who is incredibly fast on his feet. Hillary thinks like a lawyer and runs everything through a huge team and while that process is happening, Trump thinking like a CEO who is always in charge is dancing though fire without sustaining any burns. She just can’t compete in a toe to toe matchup. Then there is her health. She is obviously not the most vigorous person on earth compared to a Donald Trump who appears never to sleep—and if he does—it’s between meetings and activities. Trump has been putting in 20 hour days on the campaign trail several days in a row, working weekends, Holidays and hosting three rallies a day filled to the brim in cities all across America—whereas Hillary can only do one or two, then has to take a weekend off to recover as her stamina quickly diminishes. Her running mate Tim Kaine has had to do more heavy lifting than any VP candidate in the history of the United States and there is still two months left in the race. He can’t continue like that covering for her—without people noticing. Then there are the obvious criminal misconducts of Hillary Clinton involving her email problems. At best she can only claim to be not technically savvy enough to understand what “classified” designations are—which should under any logic disqualify her from the POTUS position. At worst—which is most likely—she deliberately destroyed incriminating evidence, lied to the FBI, and lied to congress—which holds a mandatory prison sentence. This is a lady with big, big problems and as the pressure cooker increases in the coming weeks, things will only get worse for her.
Watching her I find it astonishing that the Democrats actually thought they’d get away with putting Clinton up for the POTUS job. Evidence of this trouble showed two years ago—and now that house of cards is not just falling down—but the entire deck is burning by self-inflicted fire. It was terrible judgment by lot of people to even think that Hillary Clinton could run against the Republicans and win. It just goes to show how little respect they had for Republicans. But the Republicans for a change—not by party consent, but by the people who vote for conservatives in general, decided to make a major change in direction and they nominated Trump. The Democrats did not have an answer, and now they have to pay for that debacle. They destroyed their answer with a massive scandal that rocked their party in a cover-up which they still haven’t recovered from. Now they are stuck two months out with an unhealthy, self-entitled, criminal with a checkered past and an unlikable personality and the doom is clear as a glass window freshly cleaned. Hillary can’t win unless there is massive election fraud and that is the last great hope for Democrats—that Homeland Security will protect them from reality and rig the election. And that is the state of the Democratic Party—on the cusp of extinction. Remember—you heard it first from me on Matt Clark’s radio show several months ago—and it’s all coming true—right on schedule.
As I sat with that VIP at a bar having a 9:30 AM beer and some nachos we looked through the big window onto our big 747 that was being prepped for our journey and he thought it was funny that probably for the first time in my life, I didn’t want to talk about Star Wars or the importance of its mythology upon the world stage, which I tend to do. Our conversation drifted off onto other things happening at that time, the NFL playoffs, whether or not Trump would make the Republican nomination, and the goals of our travels. But lingering in my mind was that bad feeling about the direction Star Wars was taking—a much more Huffington Post—Star Wars, as opposed to the dystopian THX-1138 version that I feel in love with as a kid—the small government, pro-freedom imagination fueling engine that really changed science, mechanical engineering, and philosophy for the human race under the guidance of George Lucas. For kids, Star Wars was great because it combined two of their favorite things—guns, and cool machines into one movie.
The new Star Wars writers, directors, and producers were more concerned about social inclusiveness—ethnic diversity, sexual empowerment, and a hippie like love of the “Force” than the hot rod inspired George Lucas had been as a former race car driver who took his love of mechanics and applied them directly to an unlimited free market tapestry of a galaxy functioning as a Laissez-faire capitalist bastion which was carrying that society toward a type two evolutionary threshold. After all, that was what made the original trilogy such a tragedy was that the oppressive Empire was seeking to control the entire galaxy from a central government through force. Even as George Lucas become more progressive the older he became, that original essence stayed with him on every Star Wars project he worked on through The Clone Wars animated series. Noticeably in the Rebels television show and now with The Force Awakens, it was obvious to me that George Lucas wasn’t calling the shots anymore, it was now a bunch of progressive San Francisco residents with body piercings and tattoos who had much different values in life than I had, and it bothered me. It was like our metaphorical mother—Star Wars—had married an old hippie with a bald head except for a long ponytail of fringed gray hair stained with the smell of pot smoke informed us that he was our new dad—and I didn’t like him.
I didn’t have a history with this new dad. I did with the old one, I had read every book, every comic and followed most everything that happened in the Star Wars storyline for thirty years and now this new dad was throwing out a bunch of stuff that reminded him of the old dad so that he could have sex with our mom and not think of what was there before him. For me the final straw was when Disney tossed out the expanded universe books which my wife and I had read for two decades and proposed that their future stories would “borrow” from those books, but that from now on, the new dad would be calling all the story shots—which was noticeably less exciting and filled with original thoughts. This new dad was not better than the old dad—he was different—and I have been rejecting him.
About a month before The Force Awakens came out the videogame Battlefront was released to the PlayStation 4 counsel and it was reportedly a dream for Star Wars fans. I love Star Wars games for all the reasons little kids love the movies and toys—because there is a lot of energy, strategy, and imagination in them which I find is like a personal vacation for me to visit those places to step out of the daily pressures of my life—it has become for me kind of stress management. I enjoy visiting big concepts in that boundless universe–conceptually. Star Wars has always given me hope that mankind can step away from the limitations of our past into a future full of opportunity. The games always make it easy to visit that world—especially through the Fantasy Flight Games products and the video games that have been produced over the years. But with Battlefront, I wasn’t sure I was going to accept this new dad in Star Wars who was throwing out all the things I had spent time getting to know over several decades. So even though my kids, and Matt Clark along with many others were pushing me to get the new Battlefront game so they could play it with me online—I was being very stubborn about it.
Shortly after that oversea trip my wife and I bought a next generation entertainment system with a 4k 70” television that is as crystal clear as anything I’ve ever seen. Since we’ve had it we have purposely watched anything filmed or created to fulfill the market parameters of the 4K technology except the new Star Wars products. I didn’t buy The Force Awakens at first when it came out on Blue Rey, I gave up on the Rebels television show, and I refused to buy Battlefront even when our television salesman offered to give it to me for free for spending so much money with him. I said no because I didn’t want to deal with the new ponytail hippie dad that Star Wars had become to me.
After a few months of dancing around the issue the news that Battlefront was releasing a VR experience for on their upcoming PlayStation VR system made me look seriously at what was going on with Star Wars Battlefront. I had already become used to what the 4K television experience could provide and I consumed all the media I could without any of it being Star Wars—but finally knowing that I was going to participate in the VR PlayStation release, I decided I wanted to pick it up Battlefront and learn to play. Softening my position on Star Wars also was my grandson who has discovered all my old collectibles that I have from nearly four decades ago, and they are his favorite toys to play with bridging generations with some common ground to work with. So I purchased the game and was just a little blown away by the experience.
I last remembered Battlefront 2 on the old Xbox so it’s been about five years since I really paid attention to what’s going on in the platform video game market. As I have said before, my wife and I played The Old Republic online for a few years and I have been into the Fantasy Flight Games tabletop releases—so I haven’t had much time for other things. I have a busy enough life; I have to pick my leisure events carefully. So I never picked up a PlayStation 3, as I stated when recently discussing the Uncharted games. I went from watching the PS2 graphics to essentially the latest and greatest in PS4—which is essentially 7 years of technical development. I really never thought a game like Battlefront would have been possible. Some of the levels such as the ATAT Attack in the Endor forest where an All Terrain Armored Transport makes its way down a creek bed to destroy a Rebel Transport before it can take off complete with rich vegetation, slowing running water and insects flying around were simply astounding—bewildering good graphically. Then there was a moment at the Rebel Depot where a Millennium Falcon was sitting in a hanger and the battle takes place around it where I had to catch my breath and just think how cool that ship was sitting there. The vehicle was nearly photorealistic and was something that was a childhood dream for me. Essentially, after those two battle modes my position on Star Wars softened a lot. Not completely, but I found enough value in those experiences to heal some of the betrayal I felt for the abandonment of the Extended Universe to essentially reboot for a new generation that was noticeably much more politically progressive. Yet what I was seeing on Battlefront was something I observed on the multiplayer modes of Uncharted, a very laissez-faire capitalist economy that rewards the best and most hard working and provides equal opportunity for everyone who wants to be the best they can be. That is why I found myself enjoying that environment and seeing a new level of benefit in the Star Wars franchise that certainly wasn’t available when I was a kid. It’s not just about movies anymore, but the extended experience that takes place in our everyday lives.
My favorite mode is Fighter Squadron where players can fly Star Wars ships in combat over ground targets, through smoke, clouds and vicious firefights. Graphically, everything is very photorealistic. It reminded me of the countless flight simulators I’ve played over the years—but it was by far the best. It didn’t take me long before I was flying against other people—many who seem to always be playing the game 24 hours a day—and I was on the top of the leaderboard with 34 ships shot down in one match and I was only a level 11 at the time. It was a lot of fun for me to get into something that was so familiar, yet so new and polished that I saw the great benefit that was happening intellectually, and philosophically. As I was shooting down other pilots from all over the world at 4 AM in the morning with a vicious firefight that only history pointed to as a similar experience, and I noticed how some players tagged onto my wing to provide assistance without being asked and people were working together to achieve objectives because it was in everyone’s best interest to do so—I saw many good things happening to people that they aren’t learning in school. Thinking of the other players online with me, some who were very good showed that a new evolution was clearly taking place and it was a global phenomenon which transcended traditional political parameters—and it centered on laissez-faire capitalism as a foundation. Video games by their very nature are very free market entertainment options, and based on the behavior of that very vibrant world, it was working and people were enjoying it in every time zone on earth—together. A lot of people have come to take this kind of thing for granted, but for me, it wasn’t that long ago where I was on the Spaceship Earth ride at Epcot Center in 2003 when my daughters and I first learned about the possibility of global communication through web browsers. I think at that time we still had to pay a usage fee for internet use. Gaming with all the information that travels over the various internet connections involves a tremendous amount of information that a 4K 70-inch television that can be bought at Costco for the price of a house payment, can show. I wouldn’t say that I’m old, but I certainly have had a front row seat to all this development both on the Star Wars front, and on the technological part—and the mythology, and the philosophy of economy was certainly inspiring.
It doesn’t feel like it was that long ago that I was playing the very first computer game, X-Wing which was a DOS based game which came out in 1993. In 1994 I bought my very first powerful PC which could play the game, and I was in love with it—I really never forgot the experience. I stayed up many nights playing it with my nephews and we had likely some of the best times of our lives with that game and some of its sequels which started toying with the idea of online play which was attractive to us since they lived in Florida at that time. But it was nothing like the smoothness of Battlefront—so I was a little bit enchanted with my experience and maybe not so critical of the new step dad. I don’t think the new makers of Star Wars are even close to being able to make movies as original as George Lucas did. At best, they may copy elements of the original series and the films will be enjoyable. But if that’s the best that we get, it’s still a lot more than a world without Star Wars—which is changing the philosophy of the human race a little bit each and every day in a positive way.
Star Wars Battlefront is just one online experience—there are in fact hundreds of possible titles all fighting for attention in a very exciting marketplace. Battlefront has the advantage of being associated with a popular space saga that has already captured the imaginations of several generations and speaks a universal language that transcends established trends, even religion—which is why to me it is such a nice vacation for my mind. When time prevents a real vacation, I have for years vacationed in the world of Star Wars and enjoyed it for all that it brings—primarily the fighting and hot rod space ships. For others, they like the philosophy of the Force. For me, that is too much kid’s stuff. I like the strategic combat that is involved in the wars of that galaxy far, far away. I’m not ready to give the step dad a hug, but I’m at the point where I might not leave the room. We’ll see how good the new Rogue One movie is. That will decide a lot. But for now, Battlefront was just spectacular and a real treat of a sandbox video game that I found I liked a lot more than I would have thought. I not only enjoyed it for what it is—a technical marvel, but for the evolution of philosophy that it offers players on such a grand scale. There are some very special things going on in that gaming industry and it is fun for me to not only watch, but to participate in. I enjoy sharing those experiences with my kids, people like Matt Clark, and even my grandson who spent most of the weekend mesmerized by the images on the screen. I have gotten used to the big television now, but to him it was like looking into another bright world full of energy and excitement. It was fun for me to just see the excitement coming from him. So in that regard, I’m liking Star Wars again. Hopefully the people at Lucasfilm and Disney don’t screw it up any further. Because there is an opportunity here to do something very special—and I hope they don’t blow it. If Battlefront is a sign of things to come—that looks to be a concern I don’t need to have.
It’s not going to work this time. That vast “right-winged conspiracy” Hillary Clinton is talking about in a scripted speech she gave on August 25th 2016 is nearly a verbatim cry made by her after husband Bill was impeached by congress in the late 1990s. A lot of the Millennials who are supporting her now were just babies back then, so they don’t remember. Many of those Millennials are now members of the media that is covering her, and they are seduced by the black magic of the Democratic Party—a mass theft of wealth for global aims. But there are a lot of people who have seen this story before and they aren’t falling for this second attempt at the same old Clinton scam—and that’s trouble for fat-ass Hillary.
Forget about what anybody thinks of Donald Trump and his views. When it comes to the Clintons, they are criminals who have been caught in so many terrible actions—and they aren’t even in the White House. Just the Clinton Foundation issues are enough to sink Hillary Clinton—because it points straight to direct corruption. But then there is the private server and her destruction of evidence, the lying to congress, the perjured comments, the mishandling of Benghazi which actually led to deaths—and all that is before we even start considering the conspiracy theories—like why so many people end up dead around her, or that she and her husband are terminally ill—because they look like death awakened. All by herself, Hillary Clinton is a disaster. She has burned bridges and cut out hearts and all that is finally catching up to her, and she has nowhere to hide.
In desperation, Hillary Clinton can only try to divert attention away from her diabolical record. But we’ve all been burnt before by her, and we remember. Now the blood is clearly in the water. After her speech today, she revealed that she knows she’s vulnerable because she had to revert to a shot in the dark strategy she attempted many years ago, which stuck on a much more naive nation. But we’re not so naive now. Only drug abusers, welfare recipients, MTV viewers and social losers are supporting Hillary Clinton’s progressive agenda—in spite of her obvious criminal conduct, and that means that Democrats are in for a harsh reality on election night.
I’m sure they are planning to steal the election just like they do our money through taxation—but the country of America isn’t falling for this scam a second time. The press may be slow to cover the issue—but they can’t hide from this. The conspiracy that really matters is that Hillary has managed to stay out of jail, because that’s where she belongs. For her, it’s only a matter of time. She crossed the line a long time ago.
While Obama and Hillary were off at separate events enjoying life as the world burns—much do to their own mismanagement—the contrast between them and Trump couldn’t be more obvious. Even for me, a person who has been with Trump since the beginning, the contrast was quite dramatic. There are still 80 days until the election and it was clear who wanted the Oval Office more. Hillary and Obama are part of an entitled class who thought that it was appropriate to take the weekend off. In response to Trump’s visit to Louisiana Clinton declared that she made a few calls to the governor of that state out of concern—but the effort would have taken 10 to 15 minutes maximum and Obama stated that he’d clear his schedule for the following Tuesday to visit the flood zone—nearly a week after the tragedy occurred. It’s not like Louisiana is on the other side of the world from Martha’s Vineyard. It’s a short flight that could have been conducted in a morning. Obama could have done like Trump, fly down, tour the zone, talk to the people and be back north before noon and still had the entire day to conduct whatever business needed to be carried out. Yet all the established politicians got caught napping and Trump outworked everyone and didn’t even break a sweat.
I had a moment of clarity while at Top Golf in West Chester, Ohio which is a brilliant sporting complex that was a lot nicer than I thought it would be. As I was there for lunch I was listening to Mark Belling cover for Rush Limbaugh. Belling was a never Trumper during the primary campaign but he has since come around to appreciate Trump and it was interesting to hear him speak about his transition optimistically. As I looked around the Top Golf facility with Mark’s words in my ears I had one of those flashes of American potential that was extremely refreshing. It was a nice day. From my vantage point capitalism was on full display. NFL preseason games were on the television monitors everywhere, the place was packed and there was a lot of eating going on. Across the Top Golf greens was the new Main Event complex where bowling, climbing and many other activities were now available next to my favorite regional book store, the Barnes and Nobel of West Chester. Next to that was a Mitchells where I have been to many business lunches and dinners. Soon right next to Top Golf will be a Bass Pro Shop. The entire complex felt fresh and energetic like what you’d expect to experience at Disney World. It was all top notch vacation destination type stuff and was the result of many great minds thinking creatively as individual contributions to expanding the market economy of West Chester. And behind the scenes where government belongs, I knew a lot of what I was looking at was the result of two trustees, Mark Welch and George Lang who are pro capitalist entrepreneurs themselves who manage West Chester in much the way that Donald Trump is proposing to run America as a nation. Once word got out around the United States that West Chester was a hands off—high per capita location, wonderful entertainment companies like Main Event and Top Golf made investments and the result is simply spectacular.
Like all productive people though, Top Golf was only part of my day—a small part at that. Within an hour or so I was back to my obligations for the day working hard. A few hours later I did meet my wife at Ikea which was just across the highway from Top Golf to look through some new bedroom options for our guest rooms. We had dinner there and again I enjoyed the view of West Chester’s new bustling panorama. Since it was Friday a lot of people were coming in from out of town just to visit Ikea which has become a destination shopping event for many. New hotels had sprang up to accommodate the demand and it was just another example how capitalism improves the lives of people so dramatically. Everything I could see was the result of “making money.” Not redistributing the money that has been made like Clinton and Obama believe in their static hearts to be the root of all government activity—but the Trumpian capitalism of job creation and therefore wealth building. When you lay the foundation for investment and creativity, good things happen and West Chester, Ohio is a prime example of it. When Trump says he can bring back jobs and bring back optimism and energy to the country, this is the kind of thing he’s pitching.
Trump is not talking about being a typical president. Like most successful people, he does many things in a day and lives every day to the fullest. If he finds he needs to apply more effort, he does and he obtains the desired results through sheer tenacity. Playing golf in Martha’s Vineyard is just one thing he might do in a day so that’s the reason it is so despicable that Obama wouldn’t take the time to fly to Louisiana to visit the flood victims. As a president with a private airplane, such a journey is nothing—but it means so much to so many people. And after nearly eight years in office, Obama still doesn’t get it—that’s because he has never been independently successful—he has only witnessed success as a second-hander. Hillary is in a lot of ways even worse. She benefits from knowing a lot of powerful people as the wife of a former president and she actually thinks she’s entitled to the presidency and could take the weekend off.
Trump is independently wealthy—has his own luxury airplane so flying all over the country is like sitting in his private office. It’s not hard—and that opportunity is something he built for himself through a lot of hard work. So when he needs it, Trump can apply his hard work to maximum benefit and be all over the country and still have dinner with his family on Sunday while running for presidential office. And when he really needs to lock down an issue, he can have the kind of week that he just had, because as a private sector guy, he is familiar with hard work and he simply outworked the Hillary Clinton machine which is filled with second-handers and have no idea how to match the effort. But what Trump is fighting for is not to be a dictator like Glenn Beck fears or any of the other pro Hillary supporters. Trump is talking about a completely different kind of government—one where those who run it take a back seat to optimism and empower those best positioned to do the right things to unleash the power of capitalism—which is really what Hillary and Obama fear most. Because once people get a taste of that—really for the first time in America—they’ll never go back to how things have been. And that is something to really get excited about.
Sheriff Clark in Milwaukee is someone I thought a lot of before the riots broke out in that poor infested city over the weekend of August 13th 2016. His answer after the riots made me like him a lot more. Thank goodness he said what he did—which was essentially what I and many other conservative voices have been saying for a long time.
It was good to hear him speak properly on the matter and is worth remembering. So here are the words of Sheriff Clark. Listen to them and pass this along to a friend who needs to hear a little wisdom as we all endure the massive storm of progressive failure nationwide.
