  “You go into these

 

“You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothings replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. So it’s not surprising then that they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations. "

Now I don't know about you but I don't need a recession, a depression, or a loss of jobs for 25 years through successive administrations; to start, or to be feeling "Bitter" disfranchised, or for that matter defrauded by our Representatives at every lever of government representation.

I BELEIVE the 2nd Amendment is for Individuals' to be able to defend themselves from both domestic and foreign enemies.  And I Love my Lord, Christ Jesus without reservations, or need to "Call Out" for help due to my own or our governments' own stupidity;  And I don't especially see myself as displaying antipathy toward folks who are not like me.  I don't have a problem as an anti-immigrant person as much as I have a problem with illegal aliens.  As to Free Trade?  I don't have a real problem with that either; as long as it is indeed Fair, Equal and properly monitored.

I don't think any of the candidates really get it and Yes, I feel the bitterness and share the feelings as well and as much as the next person.  Most of all, I think, beleive, and am totally convinced We The People have been SOLD OUT by our Government Representatives.
