No Madonna it wasn’t because of “hate” that Trump won.

~ Conservative Momma ~ 1 Comment

I keep seeing pictures of dumbfounded Madonna in regards to Trump’s win on my news-feed. She is shocked Trump won, along with a slew of other Hollywood Elitists. Madonna has simply concluded the reason why Trump won is because “women hate women.” Yep. That’s why Trump won in her world. Other Elitists believe Trump won because the people that voted for him are racists, bigots, misogynists, rednecks, xenophobes…..and so forth. Which is odd to me, be it that many of the same people that voted for Obama in 2008 and in 2012 turned and voted for Trump in 2016. How can those people be “racist bigots” if they voted for the 1st Black President just years ago? Hmmm…..

What blows my mind is these disconnected, out of touch Celebrities….STILL don’t get it. I lived in Hollywood for years. I worked for these people, I even lived in their homes and I will tell you -they are CLUELESS. They don’t live like us and they certainly don’t think like us (I even shot a video on this topic). The things we do on a daily basis like grocery shop, pick our kids up from school, clean our houses, walk our dogs and so forth is foreign to them. That’s why it fascinates me that every four years they crawl out of their little cocoons and dictate who we should vote for or what to vote for. It obviously didn’t go their way this time and they are throwing embarrassing tantrums!

Over the course of the last few weeks we have watched the Mainstream Media continue their berating of now President-Elect Trump. They have encountered no “come to Jesus” moment. Instead of jumping off the hamster wheel of bias, they are spinning even faster. With every spin, more and more Americans are waking up from their skewed news comas. In the latest George Washington University battleground poll, 45% of voters say they have a positive opinion of the president-elect, up 9 points from mid-October’s poll.

Hollywood and and the Main Stream Media are best friends and they live by the same code of vanity. The “Material Girl” …..really is a material girl. No substance. Nothing deeper than what is readily visual. “Women hate Women,” it must be that.  No diving into the issues, no dissecting the elements, no questioning the opposition….just the baseless conclusion that “Women hate Women.” The shallowness nature of this hypothesis is why Trump won. For these Elitists to think that we vote on Race and Gender as our guide on WHO runs our country is down right insulting!  The assumption that I don’t think deeper on the issues at hand is offensive. I don’t care what color an individuals skin is, nor am I concerned with what genitals are between their legs! I vote on policy.

So no Madonna, Trump did not win because “women hate women.” Trump won because women voted on the ISSUES at hand.
Women voted for lower taxes.
Women voted for Securing our Borders.
Women voted for the ability to choose where their kids go to school.
Women voted for the protection of life in the womb.
Women voted for less government regulation.
Women voted for sensible tax reform.
Women voted for the repealing & replacing of Obamacare.
Women voted for Supreme Court Justices that will not create laws but simply interpret the law.
Women voted for Free Market Capitalism.
Women voted for the ability to protect themselves & their families in utilizing their 2nd Amendment Rights.
Women voted for keeping  American manufacturing companies in the U.S.

Women voted for an end to the Trans Pacific Partnership Trade Agreement.

Women voted for putting our Veterans FIRST.

Women voted for the negotiation of fair trade deals that benefit Americans.
Women voted for the end of radical Islamic terrorism.
Women voted for Religious Liberty.

And It’s “we”  women who are soooo over Hollywood Elitists thinking they know what’s best for Middle Class America.

No hate was involved in our vote Madonna.

We voted with our intellect and that’s why Trump won.

 

Trump’s Cabinet Picks So far:

~ Conservative Momma ~ 3 Comments

We have heard a lot of names discussed, but who has made the cut? Below is a list of Trump’s Cabinet picks so far:

Counselor to the President: Steve Bannon stephen-steve-bannon

Bannon age 63, born in Norfolk Virginia to an Irish Catholic Democrat family is set to be the chief counselor to President Trump. He holds degrees from Harvard, Georgetown, and Virginia Tech. Bannon has been an officer in the Navy, Investment Banker, Producer and one of the founding members of Conservative News Media Outlet- Breitbart News. Liberals are calling Bannon an “alt right” Anti Semite, because they think Breitbart News has published anti-sematic commentary, which is just ridiculous! So ridiculous that Jewish Democrat Alan Dershowitz, is defending Bannon- you can read that here.

reince_priebus_by_gage_skidmoreChief of Staff: Reince Preibus

Reince is the Chairman of the Republican Party who has now been tapped as Trump’s Chief of Staff. He is 44 years old, a lawyer from New Jersey. Many complained that Preibus was picked because he’s “Establishment.” I see it differently. When the Establishment slammed Trump, refused to stand with him-like Bush and Kasich who refused to keep their promise in supporting the Republican Nominee- Preibus backed Trump. He was loyal to Trump and loyalty speaks volumes in D.C. If Preibus doesn’t stay loyal- we’ll see a “you’re fired.”

Defense Secretary: Four Star Marine General “Mad Dog” Mattismad-dog

James N. Mattis, is 66 years old from Pulman, WA. He is a retired four star United States Marine Corps general. He last served as the 11th commander of United States Central Command from August 11, 2010 to March 22, 2013. Mattis has served in the Gulf war, Afghanistan, the 2003 Invasion of Iraq and the 1st and 2nd battles in Fallujah. Mattis has repeatedly criticized the current administration’s total lack of strategy in the Middle East. Huh….makes sense to me. To every radical terrorist out there, Mattis is your worst nightmare!

220px-jeff_sessions_official_portraitAttorney General: Jeff Sessions 

Jeff Sessions, the strong Constitutional Conservative Senator from Alabama was one of the first, if not the first to throw his weight behind Trump. The 69 year old was Attorney General of Alabama,  and has held his Senate seat since 1997.

Like always, the Left is calling Sessions a racist…..because that’s what they do. 30 years ago, Sessions was accused of calling an African American, who was an assistant to Sessions while he was Attorney General, “boy” numerous times. The accuser also said that Sessions said the KKK was “okay.” If this is true, it’s not okay, but people change over the course of 30 years and the South has changed over the course of the last 30 years.

In contrary though, Politico reports:

“…[Sessions] filed several desegregation lawsuits while he was U.S. attorney for the Southern district of Alabama and voted in favor of the extension of the Voting Rights Act in 2006.

Also noted was that Sessions’ vote to confirm President Barack Obama’s nomination in 2009 of the first African-American attorney general, Eric Holder.”

 

CIA Director: Mike Pompeo download-2

Pompeo, a Congressman from Kansas’s 4th District, who was first elected in 2010. Pompeo serves on the Energy and Commerce and House Intelligence committees, and he also served on the House Select Benghazi Committee. Benghazi NEEEDED a voice and the guys on this committee provided that.  Pompeo was a CEO/founder of an aerospace company and an oil field company. He graduated first in his class at West Point.

 download-3Commerce Secretary: Wilbur Ross

Ross, who is  79 years old,  is a billionaire and chairman of WL Ross & Co., an investment firm that specializes in corporate restructurings. In short, a very very successful businessman. Anyone that makes a billion dollars knows more than I do. The job here is to create jobs, improve American’s quality of life, and encourage sustainable development, Ross was beyond successful at this in the private sector and I think he’ll serve great in the public sector.

Transportation Secretary: Elaine Chao download-4

Elaine Chao- 63 years old born in Taiwan and married to Mitch McConnel. She served under President George W. Bush too, as Secretary of Labor. She is also the first Asian-American woman to ever hold a Cabinet-level position. She was the only cabinet member to serve the whole time Bush was president. Lots are arguing that she is part of the swamp that needs to be drained. I really don’t hold an opinion on her. I am no fan at all of McConnel, perhaps this is a way to get Mitch to work with Trump??? We’ll see…..

download-5Health and Human Services Secretary: Tom Price

Tom Price 62 years old from the Atlanta, Georgia. He is in his 5th term as a Congressman and is the chairman of the House Budget Committee. He’s a huge anti Obamacare guy, which makes him a brilliant choice! My family is paying INSANE amounts of money for Health Insurance right now, and it’s painful! Price believes in expanding Health Savings Accounts and allowing tax cuts on purchasing healthcare. He’s also an Orthopedic Surgeon who supported Trump from the start.

Treasury Secretary: Steven Mnuchinimages

One of the most recent picks is 53 year old Steven Mnuchin. Mnuchin is a banker, producer and campaign fundraiser. He is a former partner at Goldman Sachs and a wealthy guy, worth over 40 million. I have heard mixed feelings on this one. Obviously he’ll be a target from the likes of Bernie Sander’s and Elizabeth Warren who are anti Wall Street. If the guy can help get the economy moving again and chip away at the 19 Trillion in debt we face as a nation, I say have at it…..

b99360803z-1_20160222233727_000_g8cqo1rq-1-0Education Secretary: Betsy DeVos 

Trump picked 58 year old billionaire, businesswoman, education activist and philanthropist Betsy DeVos as Secretary of Education, who is from Holland Michigan. She is s huge School Choice advocate! I love that she is a strong supporter of School Choice, however she is close with the Bush family who support Common Core- which I despise! I don’t know her personal views on Common Core and I am sure we will see them unfold as time goes on. Regardless of where she stands, I will continue my opposition to Common Core and its money making test based curriculum.

National Security Adviser: Lieutenant General Michael Flynn images-5

Flynn who is 58 years old from Rhode Island is a lifelong Democrat. He is a retired Lieutenant General after serving 33 year in the Army. Flynn is also the former head of the Defense Intelligence Agency. His service also included being the commander of the Joint Functional Component Command for Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance, chair of the Military Intelligence Board, Assistant Director of National Intelligence, and the senior intelligence officer for the Joint Special Operations Command. Lots of Intelligence 😉 but also a ton of experience. I think Flynn is a great pick, he was also considered as Trump’s VP pick for a while but Trump went with Pence-which was the right move.

So there you have it…..now, who’s going to be Secretary of State is the BIG pending question at the moment….

 

How did Trump win?

~ Conservative Momma ~ Leave a comment

I have been fairly quiet since the election results on Tuesday, which came as a shock to many receiving their news from the main stream media. I have watched people I really kinda liked, throw total fits. I have witnessed name calling of those who voted for Trump-morons, fu@%ing idiots and so forth. I have been un-followed and unfriended. #NotMyPresident a trending hashtag on Twitter. We are now witnessing the tolerance of the left on full display as they riot in the streets, beat up Trump supporters, and burn the American Flag. We are seeing petitioning to overthrow the Electoral College, we are watching millennials have complete emotional breakdowns unable to take midterm exams because they are convinced America just elected Hitler. I am seeing the horrible side of humanity right now, a side I want to un-see.

The media got it wrong, Hollywood got it wrong, and the polls got it wrong. Hillary was supposed to win this thing in a landslide. Throughout this election I witnessed an insanely biased media. I observed poll samplings always weighted heavily on democrats. I watched the entertainment industry mock Trump at every chance they got.

It was Trump vs. The world, and Trump won.

How?

How did this happen? Why did this happen?

Most don’t want to know why, they are just angry and want to stay angry. If you really want to know, I’ll tell you.

The left nominated a corrupt elitist.

An elitist that was under FBI investigation and will most likely still need to receive a pardon in order to not go to JAIL. I have been screaming this from the rooftops in blog after blog. The media, who has gotten EVERYTHING WRONG, portrayed HILLARY WRONG.

Ignoring all the red flags, the media focused heavily on the fact that we could have a WOMAN PRESIDENT. That the highest of all glass ceilings would be broken. Disregarding the life of scandal and corruption that Hillary has led. I get you don’t want to hear that, but it’s the truth. If  you have to lie under oath, allow FOUR Americans to die in Benghazi, Rig your own Primary, break the law by destroying subpoenaed evidence with hammers, Delete 33,000 emails that BELONG to WE the American People, cheat by receiving Presidential debate questions early, Incite Riots at your opponents Rallies, Run a slush fund to get filthy rich in your pay for play activities as Secretary of State……..you are corrupt. Plain and simple. There is just no other way to lay it out.

No accomplishment in women’s rights was going to be made here, and the American people knew this. I as a woman would love to see a woman president, but I want to vote for a woman that I know got there the right way. America wasn’t voting on gender this election cycle, they were voting on NEED. Many of those angered by Trump’s win, don’t understand the needs of Americans right now. They are living comfortably, able to take yearly vacations and are not really stretched financially. But for most of America right now, the struggle is REAL. Americans were willing to be called racists, misogynists, bigots, etc in order to see real change. They were willing to endure the ridicule and hatred spewed by the left in order to alleviate their families everyday burdens.

Trump spoke right to the heart of America. He spoke to those living paycheck to paycheck. He spoke to those who have been hit hard by Obamacare. He spoke to the men and women who haven’t seen a raise in years, years! He spoke to the single moms and single dads straining to pay the bills each month. He spoke to the silent majority of Americans. Hillary instead courted  Hollywood. Hillary banked on Jay-Z, Beyonce, Katy Perry and  Lady Gaga to thrust her into her coronation. But the AMERICAN people can’t relate to these celebs. These entertainers are also part of Hillary’s elite class. They have no idea what a gallon of milk or a gallon of gas costs. These people are millionaires who hang out with millionaires….they don’t know the pains of everyday Americans.

Besides investing in Hollywood, Hillary’s campaign played the same card played every election cycle. The tactic of calling someone “racist, misogynist, bigots, xenophobic, homophobic, Islamophobic” if they disagree with you. No room for discussion just name call to shut down all dialogue.  Only this time Americans saw this tactic from a mile away and did not fall in line. Why? Because if you know you are not any of these horrible things mentioned, it doesn’t stick. You sluff it off and keep moving on, and that’s what Americans did. They trudged on through the name calling, persecution, ridicule, slander and elected a guy that wants to clean house in DC. A guy that is not taking a salary while he is President. A guy that is NOT a politician, a guy that wants to pass Term Limits, a guy for the people and not the big donors and special interests groups. A guy that wants to Make America Great Again.

Is Trump perfect? No. Does he have faults? Yes. But we knew we weren’t electing a “best friend,” we were electing someone that was going to make some real changes! Changes that HAVE TO BE MADE.

To every individual out there angry, upset, and outraged by Trump’s election…..I say give him a chance. The media told you how wrong Trump was for America…..but the media has yet to get the Truth right.

 

Wait….if the Secretary of State makes $145,000 a year….?

To the busy mom and dad running their kids to football practice and after school activities, the term “Pay for Play” seems like a bunch of jargon. “Pay for Play” ….yes we have all heard the phrase used in this election, but what exactly does it mean? Let’s take a closer look shall we?

In June 2014, Hillary Clinton told Diane Sawyer in an interview:

“You have no reason to remember, but we came out of the White House not only dead broke, but in debt,” Clinton said. “We had no money when we got there, and we struggled to piece together the resources for mortgages for houses, for Chelsea’s education. It was not easy. Bill has worked really hard. And it’s been amazing to me. He’s worked very hard.” 

Here’s the clip if you are like me and want a visual:

So the Clinton’s had no money after Bill was President. They had a couple book deals, but nothing to amount to their current estimated 50 to 100 million net worth. In 1997 the William J Clinton Foundation was formed. In 2013, it was renamed The Clinton Foundation. A charitable organization that helps fight poverty and AIDS —it does a lot of good things right….but it’s a NON PROFIT. To clarify, you don’t make a profit off of a NON PROFIT. Well….the Foundation today is worth billions. (Geeez lot’s of charitable givers out there I guess.)

 The Clinton’s explain their wealth by saying they were paid a lot of money for  doing speeches all over the world. Okay, so what!? The Clinton’s got rich off of making “speeches.” I mean Chelsea Clinton, who is 36 years old, lives in a 10 million dollar apartment in New York City-she’s made a speech or two right? And the Clinton’s own numerous homes and millions upon millions in assets alone-all due to speeches 😉 😉 . We are told they got wealthy and rich off of speeches. Geeez, thank you speeches! 5 million for a speech totally normal right? No, it’s not- here’s where the “Pay for Play” comes in to play. While Hillary was Secretary of State, making 145,000 dollars a year, the Clinton’s and the Clinton Foundation got suuuuuuuuper rich! How? Hillary would grant favors to big donors, many who were foreign governments.  When these donors would contribute money to the Clinton “charity,” Bill & Hillary Clinton, would give these donors beneficial treatment from the State Department! Whaaaat?! Yes….. and THIS IS ILLEGAL by the way. There are several examples of these Pay for Play scenarios in the Wiki Leaks Email’s (that have NEVER been wrong or disproved). Last week’s hacked Podesta emails revealed an arranged Pay for Play with the King of Morocco. The King of Morocco agreed to host a “Clinton Global Initiative Summit” and give $12 million to the Clintons, but only if Hillary Clinton attended the May 2015 meeting. Huma Abedin wrote to Podesta, “Her presence was a condition for the Moroccans to proceed so there is no going back on this.” So…..Hillary takes 12 million from the Moroccans while Secretary of State and tells the Moroccan King she’ll show up to the Summit. This is a “you pay me, and I’ll do this for you” aka -Pay for Play. NOT ALLOWED AND ILLEGAL. Hillary SOLD her Office as Secretary of State to the Highest bidder!  She would put our whole Country up for sale if she became President! Hillary gave 20% of the U.S. Uranium to Russia…..hmmmm ….I wonder what the “Charity” got for that?  Big donors were appointed as Ambassadors in this whole scandal, governments granted things we have yet to uncover! This whole thing is a mess and these hacked emails are exposing her crimes ….yes CRIMES, and how deep her Pay for Play scandal goes. Which is why the FBI has re-launched their investigation on her-more emails discovered-more dirt uncovered!

So….connect the dots. The Clinton’s get paid BIG….absurd amounts of money for “speeches,” and then they grant favors to whoever comes with a nice wad of cash “donated” to the Clinton Foundation (with a string a huge string attached). This whole “Pay for Play set up” HAD to be secret and Covered up, because it was and IS ILLEGAL. This is why Hillary had to have her own server. This is why ALL those emails were deleted. There had to be no trace of this! I hear Liberals say “enough with the email talk.” Really? Really? Selling out America is TREASON!!! Sorry not gonna just let the “email thing” go when these emails are exposing a Presidential Nominee’s illegal activities which could/should land her in jail!

What does this tell our kids? I mean honestly…..that you can sell out your country, for money? Greed is ugly, it corrupts and destroys everything it comes in contact with. America must not let Greed enter the White House.

Clean House….Drain the Swamp!

For years I have listened to Democrats, Independents, and Republicans vent about the corruption of our Government. With Congress having a 13% approval rating yet once a politician is elected, they have an over 90% chance of being re-elected. Unseating an incumbent is damn near impossible. These people get to D.C. and they stay in D.C. They lose touch with us. They lose touch with those who sent them to fight FOR change. They instead focus on re-election and pacifying their big donors. The cycle of insanity continues, and the frustration is REAL.

Most people hate Politicians. The concept of being a “Public Servant” has evolved into pimping ones self out to the biggest donor….. a pathetic pandering to those who will write the BIG checks. Promises of “change and hope” only end up being the same old same old. Witnessing this graveling is embarrassing and sad…..just sad. These politicians are politicians. How can we expect change from them, when they know nothing outside of being politicians?

We have got 93 million Americans who are out of work. Our debt has doubled in the last eight years, now standing at 19 trillion dollars. We have almost 50 million Americans living in poverty. Our taxes have increased and our ranking Globally in education has declined. We are a nation divided, a nation in need of REAL CHANGE. But how can we expect change if we keep doing the same thing over and over? Einstein defines this as insanity….are we insane? Perhaps.

If your child is sick, would you hire a politician to treat them? What knowledge does this politician bring on the treatment of a sick child? Politicians who have been in D.C. for term after term are not experts on change, but they are simply experts at being re-elected. If they were really knowledgeable at fixing the problems we face, we wouldn’t be in the mess we are in. If they were change makers, we’d see CHANGE. Yes, they can give a rousing speech, shake hands, kiss babies, and cause you to write a check to their campaign, but besides that, they lack the know how in problem solving. I wouldn’t take my child to a politician for treatment. I’d take them to a Doctor.

It’s time to solve the problems we face by electing problem solvers. It’s time to stop hiring people who have no knowledge of the private sector. It’s time to elect individuals that know how to create jobs, because they have actually created jobs. It’s time to appoint members in the Presidential Cabinet that KNOW HOW to head the Department they are placed in because they have lead in that capacity in the private sector. It’s time to enact Term Limits on Congress, and elect Congressmen and Women who are SOLUTION PROVIDERS. In order to properly treat our country, we have to hire people that know how to implicate the treatment needed, because they have done it in the private sector! These people exist, they just have to be given the shot…..what is there to lose?

With the recent re-opening of the FBI’s investigation of Hillary and her email server, we have to realize that if Hillary were elected, we the AMERICAN people would be watching a case unfold over the next year and a half. The issuing of an indictment and quite possibly a trial of Hillary Clinton. If this happens, America is put on hold, and other countries continue to fill the leadership role that America once played. We sit in limbo watching as Hillary tries to defend herself against her own trail of mass corruption and deceit.

A clear choice is in front us– More of the same OR a Change agent.

You don’t like Trump? Who said the President had to be your best pal?

We desperately NEED CHANGE and we NEED to begin healing our broken country. In order to see change, you have to make changes. You have the ability to stop the insanity of electing the same people over and over again and hoping for a different result. You can stop this cycle. Your vote is your voice, let your voice be heard loud and clear by shaking up a political establishment entrenched in back door deals and corruption….

DRAIN THE SWAMP.
