| Donald Trump and the Purveyors of Civility |
| 2018-08-29 |
| With the election of Donald Trump as president, the words "civility" and "character" have become among the most overused terms in current political discourse. According to his adversaries, Trump grotesquely lacks these attributes. However, over the past 30 years, the necessity of possessing and living by these traits has been limited to the Republican Party or conservatives in general. The Democrats and the American left are exempt from this requirement. If Donald Trump had run for president and won as the nominee of the Democratic Party, his lack of character and rampant incivility would not be an issue, and in fact, those mannerisms would be praised as revealing a tenacious and determined personality. How did this absurd double standard evolve? Cause they own the educational system? |

| #4 No need to cavil about Democrat civility, when they speak in professorial cadences and wear such perfectly creased pants. |

| #3 To all the holier than thou comments... Trump was a regular at Studio 54 from the opening day and may have helped it's initial financing... so your point is he not a saint rather a billionaire promoter? No kidding! Remember he could have taught P.T. Barnum some tricks and the nation voted for him.. many on that basis! A Barnum style photo: |

| #2 America, it seems is very comfortable with someone they watched for 12 years treating everyone to their abilities instead of their directions, and all people alike. |

| #1 The Elect told The Lord that he did not know how to run the world. So he got a reality TV host to run it instead. Do you have a problem with that? For, I could give you all much more Reality right now. Be Prayerful for what you have. |
