Loved Trump’s Speech

Editor, Times-Union:

I thought that Trump's State of the Union speech was one of the best I have heard since Reagan. But if you hadn't seen it and relied on what the anti-Trump media thought it had seen, you would have thought it was horrible. Not all that he said was totally true. But it wasn't full of lies like if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor.

Trump brought out good arguments against many of the problems the Democrats have caused or continue to support. He wants a wall that will prevent multitudes from invading the United States. But if walls are immoral, why is there one around Heaven and why do so many Democrats have them around their properties? Vienna withstood a three-month siege by the Turks in 1683 which prevented Muslims from invading Western Europe thanks to a wall. Yet too many Democrats say walls are useless.   

Trump opposes the holocaust against the unborn. More lives have been exterminated by abortion than what Hitler and Stalin exterminated. Yet proud Democrats think it is a right to act like God and determine who should live and who should die. They hanged those that exterminated innocent lives in Nuremberg. Today the exterminators are applauded and those that support their actions have no shame.

A generation ago, no president needed to say America will not become socialistic. It was associated with disastrous economies around the world and enslaved people. It is still associated with those things. But Democrats seem to think if they can bottle the skunk spray of socialism and call it perfume it won't smell as bad.   

One commentator complained that Trump didn't talk about climate change, which he has no control over since it is mainly caused by the sun. Trump bragged that we are an energy exporter and Democrats want to destroy our energy independence by forcing us to depend on renewable sources like solar and wind. I believe we need to use more geothermal and nuclear power. And once we have power satellites in orbit, jetliners will use energy beams to power their shaft-driven and compression field engines. My injection reactor and maybe crystalline flywheels will power other electric planes that might have longer ranges than conventional planes. My plasma igniter might be able to turn water into fuel too.

Trump has faith in America's future greatness. To hear Democrats, Trump is destroying America. He didn't win thanks to the Russians. Ironically, Hillary wanted Russian lies to defeat him. Also, Democrats complain that the truth about Hillary shouldn't have been used against her. You will know the truth and the truth will set you free. In Hillary's case, the truth could put her away in prison. Democrats hate the truth if it conflicts with what they want to believe.  Democrats hate Trump because the mirror Trump uses shows how truly ugly they are.
