Street Fightin' Man

Half fighter, half diplomat

Back in the day, the Rolling Stones bemoaned the fact that "in sleepy London Town there's just no place for a street fightin' man."  Well, today in the US, there is a dire need for such a man.  A man from Gotham, a brawler, a man who has the respect of the cuff-linked gents dining on the top floors, as well as those hard boys down on the street in the nitty gritty, and that man is Donald Trump.

He's a hero to some, a nuisance to others and a bane to many.  But he is a man for his time, and that time is now.  As the preponderance of undeniable evidence continues to pour forth, it's now clear that the United States is awash in political corruption not seen in a century or more.  Both parties govern against the clear and stated will of the people, and foreign interests support this status quo for the enrichment of their few at the expense of our many.  And media, whose job is to be a watchdog and expose exactly this kind of government and public corruption, are all in the tank for the bad guys.  The American people, never gullible but many times slow to arouse, see clearly this tyrannical bastardization of the country's Constitution.  They don't like it, but up until now have been powerless to stop it, or prevent it.

And even though, at the request of the opposition party, American voters delivered electoral majorities in both the House and Senate, the cancerous political and media corruption - far from being quelled - actually metastasized and expanded ever wider.  The tyranny and corruption in government bodies go unchecked:  IRS, FBI, DOJ, NSA, ICE, and others operate above and beyond the law, and do so with contempt of any oversight.  The press condones it.  And no one seems to be able to stop it.

Except for that New York street brawler.  He comes at the exact moment he's needed.  He challenges the entrenched powers that be, and tells the truth about the corruption in which those powers engage.  He is the voters' man of the hour, and ironically so because no one really sat down and said, "You, know, what we need is a man of character, a successful and wealthy businessman, a guy who loves the country and the constitution, a political outsider, a man who cannot be bullied or intimidated, a guy who will hit back and not roll over.  And, oh yeah, a guy who can kick ass with the best street fighters in the country."

And from the Grace of God comes Donald J. Trump.  He is exactly what the American citizen voter has been waiting for.  The established elite - and their foreign interest puppeteers - have never seen such a grassroots support of such a brash and aggressive outsider, and are not sure how to react.  They're scared to death.  So they are hell bent on destroying the messenger and his message.  But their onslaughts get no traction.  His popularity soars.  Yet if they can just put down this little rebellion, they reassure themselves, the populace will go meekly and quietly into the submission their betters have planned for them.

But sadly for the elites, it's too late.  The cat's out of the bag.  There's no way the anger in flyover country can be assuaged.  The voters are done with the corrupt and entrenched politics as usual, and if it comes to light that there were shenanigans involved on November 8th, well, it may be that we'll see a most uncivil war.
