No Me (h-m)

The real Trump

The difference between me and a lot of my Democratic friends…..

You see Trump’s arrogance, I see Trump’s confidence.

You see Trump’s nationalism, I see Trump’s patriotism.

You hear Trump’s unsophisticated words, I hear Trump’s honesty.

You see Trump’s racism, I see Trump’s words being misconstrued and twisted by the media daily to fit THEIR narrative.

You see Trump as a Republican, I see Trump as a Patriot (he’s not a career politician).

You see Trump as a dictator, I see Trump as a leader.

You see Trump as an authoritarian, I see Trump as the ONLY one willing to fight for our Constitutional freedoms.

You see Trump as childish, I see Trump as a fighter, unwilling to cave in to the lies.

You see Trump as an unpolished politician, I see Trump as a breath of fresh air.

You think Trump hates immigrants, I know Trump is married to an immigrant.

You see Trump putting an end to immigration in America, I see Trump welcoming immigrants to America LEGALLY.

You see Trump’s cages at the border, I see Obama’s cages at the border.

You see Trump with a struggling economy, I see Trump with an amazing economy (the best in American history, in fact) until the Democrats shut it down.

You see the violence in the streets and call it “Trump’s America”, I see the violence in the streets of Democratic-run cities who are REFUSING Trump’s help and call it “Liberal America.”

You want someone more “Presidential”, but I’m happy we have someone who finally doesn’t just talk-the-talk, but actually walks-the-walk…someone who actually gets things done, and keeps his promises.

You and I? We see things very differently. 😉

A friend named Joe

I have a friend
Out there in cyber-land
Name’s Joe, nice guy
But alas we hadda part ways
Coz he loves debating,
I hate it.
He honors the red-suited guy
I don’t.
He’s unclear ’bout gloom ‘n doom.
I’m not.
We wave to each other
As we pass by on another thread.
We say “You still …?”
Yep, and you?
Yeah, me too.
Bye-bye again.

Painting apt., lost guitar *

(7/1/16 approx)
Y’all know I had my place painted, right?
And you know it was no easy matter?
That it would take some time to put
everything back where it belonged?
Well, I finally got to the point of
Getting everything accounted for . .
And found, much to my distress
That my favorite electric guitar
Was nowhere to be seen.
So, so sad.
Was it the painter himself?
He had been so nice –
I practiced my Spanish with him.
So sad.
Or, did someone else in the building
Sneak in, when he wasn’t looking?
Omigoodness, I’d hate to accuse
The wrong guy.
I checked all the closets again
For the umpteenth time.
No Fender (guitar) !!
Trying to think Christianly:
This will be a blessing somehow.
Sure didn’t -f-e-e-l- like it!
Tried to see as Jesus sees.
Tried again a little harder.
Quit trying.
Then I knew …
God is here INSTEAD of this loss,
Humiliation and blame.
The Holy Spirit told me that all would be well.
“Look again (must be 11 times by now).”
Obediently, but not confidently,
I went to the same closet….
Felt around way, way in the back….
And guess what I found?
