    And Gen. Patraeus fainted during similar inquiries.

    Thanks to a long-ago GOP rally I registered for and attended -- no, really -- I'm on the Trump email list. Just got this:

    =================

    Friend, because we’ve returned to the important issues that sparked our campaign, the polls now show that we will win the White House. Last week I laid out ten simple, but tremendously important steps to STOP illegal immigration:

    #1 BUILD THE WALL!
    #2 END “Catch and Release”
    #3 ZERO Tolerance for illegal aliens
    #4 ELIMINATE “sanctuary cities”
    #5 REVERSE Barack Obama’s illegal “executive amnesty”
    #6 SUSPEND visa issuance to risky countries
    #7 ENSURE foreign countries accept their deported citizens
    #8 COMPLETE biometric entry-exit visa program
    #9 ENFORCE E-Verify with employers
    #10 REFORM immigration to suit the best needs of the AMERICAN people


    #2 is so damn catchy. And #7 ... easy peasy, right? "Hey Nicaragua, we're here! Come and get these people off this fucking boat!"

    Why is her hair in a ponytail? Is it because she gets too hot if she wears it down and becomes more at risk of getting overheated? WHAT IS SHE HIDING!????

    I felt like "Mr. White" from the old Eddie Murphy SNL skit.

    She lost her balance. LOL.

    The media is shameless.

    This is how they're reporting it with video. Imagine if there was no video.

    Alternately, let's imagine Ray Rice was treated by the media the way Hillary Clinton is, despite video evidence. What might the headlines read?

    "Janay Palmer stumbles in elevator."

    "Jenay Palmer trips."

    This is how ridiculous the Clinton headlines are.

    Her staffers are told not to refer to her as "Hill," because it reminds her that she can't walk up them.

    I have it on good authority they're also not supposed to use the words "see" or "sea" since those remind her (phonetically) of her difficulties with routine information security protocols ...

    Preachers already do endorse candidates, and we've seen Democrat candidates speak in African-American churches on multiple occasions.

    But, when there is a complaint/investigation regarding the Johnson Amendment, it's almost always a conservative church, and not an African-American church, which supports Democrats.

    Repealing the Johnson Amendment would only level the playing field.

    Based on our buying power, our financial and military aid, among other things, we do have leverage in these situations.

    Unfortunately, we are often uncomfortable using it.

    Trump is all about exerting leverage when we have it. The world is going to have to get used to this.
