Brian’s Beat: Sticking Up for Trump [Poll]

Forced to bite the bullet and stand by Barry Richard's man, for an hour, and to a precious radio audience, I had to hold my nose and stick up for Donald Trump. Good thing there's no video.

Honestly, I can't support either main stream candidate. Clinton and Trump do not deserve my vote. They will not receive my vote. Defend Mr. Trump I have, to the third power.

1) Candidate Trump claims he'll make tremendous cuts to the federal Department of Education. I'd chuck it out the window. Trump will abolish Common Core and give back control of schools to local governments. I can only hope he curtails all funding and regulations for this albatross.

2) The abortion controversy. I thought it's suppose to be a privacy issue. You choose Life. You choose to abort. Why is it everybody's business what a woman and her doctor, with or without the sperm donor, decide? Only governments can eliminate that choice. Where I agree with the Donald, big time, is the abortion debate and regulations should be argued only at the state level. Abortion is not in-ter-state commerce. There's no reason why each state should be subject to federal laws on abortion, and federal funding for any form of contraceptive services. Let the states decide their stance on this highly charged and intimate subject. Should any state outlaw a woman's right to choose, women can get in a  car or bus and travel to another state that does and will provide such services. Hopefully, at the needing party's expense.

POINT: I wholeheartedly disagree with candidates Clinton and Trump over nominating Supreme Court justices that support, blatantly, their point of view on abortion. They should appoint justices who, based on their conviction, will uphold the Constitution for the united States along with the federal laws of the land in concert with said Constitution. Any abortion case or cases should be decided on the merits of legal standing and not on bias opinion.

3) How can you argue with a person who puts his money where his mouth is? Donald Trump self-funded a huge portion of his presidential campaign. Sure, he can afford it. So can many Congresspeople, Senators and Governors. But, how many do? I vehemently disagree with Trump on many issues, but he's got the balls to say what he means. Donald wiped out a field of prominent republicans, because he didn't blab political double speak. He strikes a chord with Joe and Jane six pack. Yes, it's an F-minor (Fear chord), but it continues to resonate nationwide--- and primarily at his own expense. You don't see Hillary funding her campaign with family money. I wonder why?

There you have it. Now that I'm done shilling for Trump, I say--Aleppo or no Aleppo--GARY JOHNSON for President!
