Normal people for Trump?


So what I am hearing, in my search for why “normal” people are voting for Trump, is that they would rather Trump appoint the next Supreme Court justice than Hillary.

These are people that feel both candidates for office are “bad” but are willing to overlook Trump’s obvious severe idiosyncrasies and total lack of experience in politics as well as basic knowledge about any and all issues pertaining to governing the country. They are also willing to overlook Hillary’s long and extensive history in national government…

To these people, having a conservative nominated to the Supreme Court is reason enough to vote someone like Trump into the presidential office.

Obviously, these people are deathly scared of a liberal Supreme Court.

And obviously, these people believe that Trump will nominate a conservative to the Supreme Court when elected president.

Donald Trump is not a Republican or a conservative if we are to judge by his actions in life to this point. Trump is not religious either and if anything, he tends more in the liberal direction on social issues. Trump is an opportunist and has already demonstrated that he will do anything and say anything and promise anything, to get elected; after that all bets are off.

On the other hand, “these” people know Hillary will nominate a liberal to the Supreme Court if elected so taking a chance that Trump “may” nominate a conservative because he said he would, seems like a chance they are willing to take.

So why are “these” people so desperately wanting the Supreme Court to be conservative that they are willing to sacrifice the welfare of this country and its citizens by electing a Trump character to the presidency?

Ironically or maybe not so, it is for the same reasons as the not so normal, uneducated white trash have; they want things to be like they used to be and to hell with this progressive politically correct shit.

They do not want an activist Supreme Court they want what Antonin Scalia was, a strict constitutional constructionist which is to say, interpret the Constitution as it was written and preserve its original intent.

Well Scalia called himself a strict constructionist but he was not. The Second Amendment is a good example. The language in the amendment is short, clear and concise; you have a right to own a gun IF YOU ARE PART OF A WELL REGULATED MILITIA and yet Scalia and others read it as saying everyone has a right to have a gun which it plainly and clearly does not say.

So a conservative court will apply its own conservative prejudices to cases no matter what the Constitution says, so I do not buy their constitutional constructionist bullshit.

So as I see it, the people voting for Trump, whether educated normal whites or uneducated abnormal white yahoos, all want the same thing; for the president as well as the Supreme Court to think and act like they do and believe in what they do.


So maybe these educated normal adults may not appear at Trump rallies screaming their hatred for all to see and hear but they are, none the less, cut from the same cloth.
