In just the last couple of days, Donald Trump has promised reprisals against his critics when he's elected president, pledging to "open up" libel laws so that he can punish anyone who writes "negative" or "false" stories about him. He said his critics "will have problems" when he's in power. Remember, Trump claims that EVERY critique of him, no matter how true, is "false," so he is clearly vowing to outlaw all criticism of government. If Obama had said anything even remotely in the neighborhood of this when he was running for president, every conservative in the country would've exploded with rage (justifiably). But Trump said it and it hardly sparked much of a backlash at all.

Then Trump proceeded to retweet a quote from Benito Mussolini, the Fascist dictator, and later admitted that he knew the quote was from Mussolini but decided to distribute it anyway. To be clear, for anyone who isn't versed in recent world history, quoting Mussolini is exactly morally analogous to quoting Hitler. It would be like Trump finding a passage in Mein Kampf and sympathetically reading it at one of his rallies.

Finally, this morning Trump refused to repudiate David Duke and the KKK. Later on Twitter he backpedaled, but when asked on TV if he would denounce the white supremacists who've endorsed him, Trump dodged. He was pressed specifically on denouncing the KKK and he refused. The KKK, people. Donald Trump was reluctant to say, "Yes, obviously I disown the KKK and object to everything they say and do." Initially Trump avoided the question by saying he has to investigate the KKK to figure out if he agrees with them or not.

Now, guys, this was all in the span of just three days. And it should be noted that a great number of his fans cheered him on when he promised to censor speech and defended him when he quoted Mussolini and refused to criticize white supremacy. I said last week that the scariest thing about Trump is that he's running as a tyrant, unabashedly so, and his fans want him BECAUSE of it. His fans are explicitly asking for Trump to rule as an emperor. They don't desire freedom or liberty anymore, and they don't give a damn about the Constitution. What they want is a political Strongman who will "restore America's greatness" through brute and oppressive force.

I should remind you, historically, this plan has never worked out well for the common man. Just ask the folks who lived under Trump's mentor in fascist Italy.

We are watching our nation march headlong into tyranny and despotism, and the cattle following along are quite aware of, and enthusiastic about, where the cattle train is going. While Trump will not repudiate white supremacy, his fans have indeed repudiated freedom and independence, and are desperately asking their Great Master to subjugate them for the good of the country.

It's madness and it must be stopped. If you can't see that now, you never will -- until it's too late.

If I said and did all of these things, would you say that I’m trustworthy?

If I said and did all of these things, would you want me to be in charge of nominating people for the Supreme Court?

If I had said and done all of these things, I would be Donald Trump.

And, sadly, I would be running away with the Republican Nomination for President.

I seriously doubt anybody cares what I have to say about this, but nevertheless, here’s my two cents:

This is important. This isn’t about a popularity contest. This isn’t American idol.

This is going to affect us. This is going to impact the way you and I live. And it’s going to decide what kind of world our kids grow up in.

The next President could possibly nominate as many as 4 or even 5 Supreme Court Justices.

That means if we mess this up, it's probable that in the near future:
1. Preaching what the Bible says about marriage will be considered hate speech. And teaching it to children will be child abuse.
2. The right to bear arms could be completely gone.
3. Christian businesses will be forced to provide abortion pills.
4. Your daughters will have to share locker rooms and bathrooms with boys who “say” they’re girls.
5. Unborn babies will not only continue to be murdered, but killing them will be funded by OUR tax dollars.
6. The EPA will double down its attack on energy production, destroying jobs, and causing your electric bill to sky rocket.
7. Our $19,000,000,000,000 dollars in debt will continue to grow.
8. 18 year old girls will have to register for a draft where they could be sent to the front lines against their will.
9. You won’t be able to point out a Muslim, at the Mall, who is acting shady, because you will be labeled islamophobic and probably hit with a lawsuit.
10. Church’s will have to hire people who don’t believe the Bible.
11. Christian Pregnancy Help Centers could be forced to suggest to patients that they might want to consider an abortion.

With that all being said, the Presidential election is headed to our neck of the woods this coming Tuesday.

I ALWAYS hear people in this part of the country say, “Our votes don’t matter.”

Well folks, this time they do. The delegates from Oklahoma and Arkansas could be what decides the race.

There is no perfect candidate. But we have to choose one.

So it comes down to this; There is no possible way Carson, or Kasich, can win. A vote for Carson or Kasich, at this point, is a vote for Trump.

If Cruz and Rubio continue to split votes, Trump wins.

Neither Rubio nor Cruz is going to drop out, so we have to pick one.

You’ve heard them talk over and over; I don’t need to regurgitate campaign speeches.

So when it comes down to my pick, it’s this easy. I like Rubio, but he’s no Ted Cruz.

This is why I'm voting for Ted Cruz.
a. He’s a serious, principled Christian.
b. He knows the Bible and he will defend it without apology.
c. He knows the Constitution and he will defend it without apology.
d. I don’t have to worry about what he will do as President, because I can look at what he’s done in the Supreme Court and as a Senator and he has been consistent.
e. He is the most qualified to pick Godly people to the Supreme Court.
f. He represents me, and the things I believe in, better than anyone.

In Cruz’s home state of Texas, he has a double digit lead on Trump in the poles. Texas has A LOT of delegates. In Rubio's home state of Florida, he isn’t even close to Trump.

Cruz won Iowa and so he’s the only person to beat Trump so far. Rubio hasn’t won a primary yet and he isn’t projected to win any at all.

We have to unite behind one guy to beat Trump.

Rubio is another GW Bush. Cruz is more principled and he’s in better position to win.

If you are absolutely sure, that Donald Trump will represent you in a way you can be proud of, and if you can vote for Trump with a clear conscience, then fine.

But if we elect Trump as our nominee, then we will get what we deserve. A sleazy, foul mouthed, New York liberal, billionaire.

President of the United States was intended to be an opportunity to serve, not a throne where you rule over people. Obama has made us forget that.

There’s too much at stake to take a chance on Trump.

Our religious liberty is at stake. The Constitution is at stake. Our jobs are at stake. And my little girl's future is at stake.

We have no idea what Trump will do.

He’s not trustworthy.

Exodus 18:21
“But select capable men from all the people—men who fear God, trustworthy men who hate dishonest gain—and appoint them as officials…”

John 7:24
"Judge not according to the appearance, but judge with righteous judgment."

I understand and share the instinct to "shake things up," but Trump has never (prior to 2015) shaken things up in politics and will not shake things up in any meaningful way if nominated. If he secures the GOP nomination, Trump will most likely roll over and clear a path for his longtime friend Hillary Clinton. If he is elected to the White House, Trump will most likely cozy up to his friends Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi and "make deals" just as he's promised.

There will be no wall. There will be no large-scale deportations. It is all a snowjob.
