I replied to a point on TEApartyorg.ning.com
So, does Mr. Trump really "love" the TEA Party as he says he does?* If he does he will love our Core Values and core issues.
Since
Informed Consent is the defining issue of the 21st Century, and
our right to choose health care alternatives is being heavily
restricted by govt policy, what does Mr. Trump propose? A single payer
health care (rather, illness control) system. Replace Obamacare with
Trumpcare.
One of the main issues that moved the TEA Party forward from being just the worthy successor to the Tax Payers Movement of the '70s and
80s and becoming a powerful political movement was Obamacare (another being Audit the Fed).
Trumpcare reminds us that Romney lost because there was not a fiat
dime's difference between his Romneycare and Obamacare, leading to 3
million 2008 (G)OP voters not voting in the presidential portion of the
ballot in 2012 (but electing a (G)OP majority in both House and Senate).
Does the (G)OP get the message? They cannot win the presidency without TEA Party support.
Does Trump get the message? He will not get TEA Party support unless he supports our Core Values.
[As an aside, let me say that the primary issue I'm personally
involved in at the present time is the issue of Informed Consent (to
vaccination). Trump takes the pro-liberty position on that: govt has no
legitimate power to force anyone to undergo any medical intervention. So
I like Trump on that (to me) all-important issue. See my article on
Informed Consent here:
http://drrimatruthreports.com/a-brief-for-informed-consent/ ]
Back to the issues upon which we all must disagree with Trump, where he has to "compromise" with
US to get TEA Party support.
Telling us he "loves" us is NOT enough.
IMHO, here is what he has to say to get TEA Party support; if he
fails us in these issues, we MUST oppose him. These are the TEA Party Core Values
and we will not support any politician who flaunts them.
1. Constitutional Republic
He must make it clear that he will obey the Constitution in its Original Intent, unless formally amended.
He must make it clear that he will sign a wholesale repeal of the Obama Regulations and Executive Decrees
on inauguration day. Like Reagan did, he must be ready to abrogate unlawful executive authority from Day One.
He must acknowledge that there is not provision in the Constitution
for a Central Bank. The Fed Reserve must go and we must return to
Constitutional Money. Will he even acknowledge that there is an issue
with the FRN fiat "money"? This must be a core TEA Party litmus test.
Any candidate who will not END the FED cannot have TEA Party support.
2. Free Markets
He must acknowledge the role of enterprise and private businesses. He
must show the distinction between govt-entangled crony corporations
that cooperate in the growing tyranny and truly free markets that are
self-regulating through market forces. As health care should be.
He must acknowledge that socialism can never work. Obamacare will
work no better than the old post office.. But, more importantly, he must
acknowledge that the attempt by the Federal authorities to fix the
price of money (interest rates) is doomed to failure. Just like "one
payer" public schools are rapidly collapsing under the weight of
bureaucracy and polypharmacy, one central bank, socialized media of
exchange are not just doomed to failure, but will rob us of our
prosperity (and have!).
Is Trump ready to stand for the Market and against the Cronies? I seriously doubt it.
3. Fiscal Responsibility
Has anyone in the TEA Party heard Trump utter a word about
restraining Fed spending? Would a President Trump expect Congress to
obediently raise the Fed Debt every time he wants to spend more? Maybe on "single payer health care" for the cronies in Big Pharma?
The Fed Debt has been frozen since this past March and the sky has
not fallen. Will Trump call for a continuation of the present Debt
Limit? Will he call for a steady reduction in the so-called "ceiling"??
Let's see if Mr Trump really loves the TEA Party.
Well TEA Partiers, are you ready to go on record by joining me in
asking candidate Trump to be candid and either stand with us or stop
telling us he loves us.
We love our Core Values. If he loved us, he'd share those values. Does he?
