I've wondered about Trump's distancing himself from Rudy, knowing the left completely railroaded him. I can't say that Rudy was an angel and am no expert on him. But, the man didn't deserve what happened to him.

Funny you mention how celebrities can get an audience with influential politicians but the every day tax paying citizen can't. My niece and I were just talking about that they other day. Kim Kardashin can get an invite to the White House. That makes sense? It has been a disappointment that no one in the last three administrations have invited Pastor Brook from Chicago's Project Hood for a visit. A celeb or race baiter like Sharpton is fine but an every day man who is giving his life to improving the lives of struggling inner city communities gets passed by. Worse yet, famous elites are invited, on the tax payer dime, to dine on what must be $2,000. a plate meals at the WH while impoverished children go without school lunches. I am disgusted by what our government has become.

Antonio Brown engaged in alleged behavior that a lot of people who find sudden fame and fortune do. It doesn't justify the behavior he was truly guilty of. But, I'm not shaken by it. There was a recent video clip of Trump on stage with Noem on HuffPost. As usual, the propaganda rag sliced and diced Trump's words. They didn't mention Noem, just show images of them together. So, I'm not sure if he recently appeared with her. That would bother me if he did. It wouldn't keep me from voting for him. I'd just be disgusted by it. At the end of the day, I'm voting for most likely person to throw a wrench in the political machine that is working on taking us into third world with status with no middle class and interfering with parental rights.

Your vote won't matter much in Connecticut. Mine probably won't matter much in Florida, which will likely go red. I'm still traveling out there where I own a home and am registered to vote anyway. I won't don't to go to the trouble and expense. The timing is inconvenient. But, I'm heading out there to cast my ballot in person anyway. For the price tag the entire trip will cost, it could be a trip to the day spa. But, I won't feel right about myself if I don't show up.
