"A Ship To Sail,And A Star To Guide Her!"

"I must go down to the seas again , to the lonely sea and sky, and all I ask, is a tall ship, and a star to steer her by." A line from the poem, "Sea Fever, by John Masefield, a line that perfectly defines the Trump strategem, for the coming year.
The President Elect, now has his ship, and his guiding star.But one thing more remains,essential for any successful sea voyage.A ship, needs a crew, loyal to that one man , that one vessel, and equally dedicated to the odyssey that lay before them. President -Elect Trump is now assembling that crew, one by one, in his  fortress of solitude known only as Trump Tower.And, so far,Trump's ability as a master politician, has only been overshadowed by his ability to judge human nature as well. Trump has, above all else, always had the ability to spot talent, and recruit that talent to aid him in his dual mission; to grow the Trump empire, and to Make America Great Again. And, with less than a month to go till inauguration,  Trump's transition team is well ahead of schedule in choosing the most important part of his ship's crew, his first officers, his cabinet of advisors that will shape the mission to come, to match their Commander in Chief's vision. Senator Jeff Sessions, the creator of the Reagan-style, Trump tax plan, that will slash and burn all taxes and regulations on a corporate and individual level,down to an unprecedented 15% top rate. This man will be the new Attorney General, the man who will make sure the laws of our nation , set forth by our founders, are followed, and that justice is served, to our nation's enemies as well. Secretary of Defense will be James "Mad Dog" Mattis, a poet warrior in the classic Churchillian sense,a former Marine General and Iraq War veteran, who lives by the motto, 'Be respectful to all, but be prepared to kill all, as well".
So be it.
Reince Preibus will be the President-Elect's Chief Advisor, and this is a choice well made. As RNC Chairman, Reince acted as the glue that kept Republicans united toward one goal, one mission;.."Destroy the Democrat Party." Steve Bannon, will act as staff advisor, and right hand man to Trump, during the transition phase. As Editor in Chief of Breitbart News, Bannon established a no nonsense, take no prisoners , suffer no liberal fools approach to politics that has made him the Democrat Party's most hated foe. That alone, makes him supremely qualified for his position. Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, has rejected any formal position, but nevertheless will assume a Richleau-like, power behind the throne status that, given his experience as the architect of the Republican revolution during the Clinton Presidency, suits him well indeed. Newt would be invaluable to any Republican President, due to his unmatched skill and experience as a conservative icon and leader. Trump will be well served by him. Ted Cruz may remain as a Senatorial confidant to the President-Elect, or may replace Antonin Scalia on the Supreme Court.Either way, he would be the indispensible man, in any Republican President's Administration,the closest thing to the perfect conservative fighting machine , yet created by the gods.
Former Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin may assume control of the Veterans Administration. She is the pure,almost instinctive conservative, who , like Trump,has that rare combination of pop-idol charisma, and conservative truth. A deadly combination to any Democrat Machine that would dare oppose her. Like her, or hate her, one thing is certain, our veterans will be well served , with Sarah as their Champion.
Tulsi Gabbard , the rebellious dark angel of the Democrat Party,former military officer and Hawaiian congresswoman, a fierce defender of our armed forces and their fight against the forces of terror, has a future with the Trump Administration that is as yet , undefined .But, Gabbard does seem to be on the verge of being cast out of a Party that has no use for a congresswoman who actually believes in the greatness of America, past,present, and future. Trump may be the force that finally swings her from the "dark side" of the Democrat Party, once and for all.
Ben Carson will be the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development,and there could be no better pick, for this role. Doctor Carson came from modest means , and learned from his mother that hard work, discipline, and sacrifice, are the keys that open the door of success.Make no mistake, Ben Carson, the master of intellectual conservatism, could virtually assume any domestic related position, and handle it with equal skill.Carson had to serve the Trump Administration in some capacity, or the wrath of the conservative gods would be aroused indeed, at the sheer waste of political talent.
Millionaire conservative activist Betsy DeVos, will be the Secretary of Education.This is a woman who has one defining quality that makes her the perfect choice for the role; a hatred for the liberal mind control program known as common core, that is only equaled by her hatred for the Democrat unions that have made a holocaust level ruin, of the public schooling system. Betsy knows that privately funded charter schools, and free market competition in general, is the only way to improve failing school programs and to end the Democrat union control of our schools as well. Betsy will serve our children, and the nation , well indeed.
National Security Advisor will be General Mike Flynn, a fierce promoter of the Bush -Cheney anti-terror program, and a man who understands the evil of Radical Islam , all too well, and is not afraid to do what is necessary, to destroy it.
One key position that remains a question mark, is the pick for Secretary of State. But, despite the open field, of many possibilities, all current evidence would seem to be a fait accompli, in favor of former Republican Presidential candidate, Mitt Romney. This has created a controversy and a division in the Trump camp of supporters and advisors , that is simply unwarranted. There is no reason for anyone to question the pick of Romney for Secretary of State. The man's entire life qualifies him for the position . He is an international businessman, who has achieved a level of success, only matched by Trump himself. A successful Governor of Massachusetts, a hard core conservative, who, like Trump and Cruz, has supported a secure border first policy, slashing tax and regulation cuts for all Americans, a strong military, an aggressive war on our terror enemies ,and has shown an instinctive ability to navigate the chessboard of American Foreign Policy strategem.In 2012, Romney not only promised to end Obamacare on day one of his Presidency, but he also accurately predicted the current state of Russia, Syria, ISIS, and the Middle East conflict in general. Romney called it all, accurately, while Obama scoffed at him, in all three debates, telling him that the "eighties called, and wanted their foreign policy back". Obama, is no longer scoffing.
Romney was right, on everything. Obama was wrong. What more needs to be said?
Forget Romney's criticism of Trump during the primaries and beyond.Like with Cruz, both men said things , in the heat of battle, that they now regret, and both have now united , for the sake of our nation's future.
The critics of Romney, must always remember, if Romney has won the Presidency in 2012, then today, there would be no Obamacare, there would be no ISIS, and no domestic terror attacks. There would be no record unemployment, there would be no Syrian refugee invasion, on America's shores.There would be no threat to our Second Amendment rights, no endless attacks on Christmas, and Christianity , in general. There would be no failing Veterans Administration, that disrespects those that gave all, in service to their country.
Had Romney won in 2012, the Benghazi scandal would have been quickly exposed, prosecuted, and those responsible, punished. If Romney had won, the crimes of Hillary Clinton, and the Clinton Foundation, would have ended her bid for the Presidency, before it could have even begun. The nation would be prosperous, secure, free from domestic terror attacks, ISIS would be decimated, and on the run, our schools would be secured , our children protected , Obamacare , would be destroyed, our borders secured, and illegal immigration ended, once and for all.
This is not speculation. This is the living, working reality , that would have been, if Mitt Romney had won the Presidency, in 2012. And yet, he is now opposed , for the position of Secretary of State, the third man in line, for the Presidency.Why? Make no mistake, those that oppose him fall into one of three categories,
One, they are 2012 Republican Primary opponents, still bitter about their loss. Two; they are crossover Democrat voters, who voted Obama in 2012, not Romney, thereby sealing America's fate. Three; they are the most reprehensible group of all, the 80 to 85% of registered Republican voters who stayed home in 2012, just as they had in 2008 , and let Obama win, both times. The reason? They just didn't give a damn, about their country, and just couldn't find the energy , the strength of will of character, to put down the remote , get up off the couch, and save America from socialist destruction.
They just didn't care, for either McCain, or Romney, and both of these men would have made America not only great again, but free from all Obama  created destruction as well.
80 TO 85% , of Republicans, worthless non-entities, that sealed America's fate. However, I'm sure they found the energy to drive down to the WAWA , for their weekly carton of cigarettes.Therein lies the priorities, of those proven to be , simply too stupid and lazy, for freedom.
Their excuses?
McCain wasn't "conservative" enough.
Romney was "too rich, and out of touch".
Wrong, both times, The only ones lacking conservative values who are woefully out of touch, are the 85% of center right Americans that are , in reality, the only ones responsible for America's fall .For, as Trump has now proven, the center right outnumbers the left drastically.Always did.Those that never voted before, or simply sat home for most elections, and let Democrats win, now showed up for Trump.
Why?Because he had a t.v. show?Because they liked his personality? The McCain -Romney agendas, were essentially the same as Trump's. The same as any Republicans. Pathetic that it took a man with unique charisma,to awaken a sleeping America, that just couldn't be bothered, to do their job.That job, is to assure that the Party that moves the country forward, remains in power,
The Republican Party.
It doesn't matter who is the Republican nominee for the Presidency.
You elect him, if you want America to remain the Shining City, that our Founders envisioned.
Only Republicans cut taxes,
Only Republicans cut regulations,
Only Republicans strengthen our military,
Only Republicans fight terror aggressively,
Only Republicans protect our Second Amendment rights,
Only Republicans secure our borders,
Only Republicans care about our Veterans, and our allies in freedom that stand beside us.
And yet, 85% still stayed home.
If you, are sixty years old, and only now got up off your butt, to finally vote,..you don't deserve freedom,..because , as Dr. Franklin said,  the price of freedom,,..is constant vigilance.
And likewise, if you sat home, in 2008, and 2912, or voted Obama,..and you now have the nerve to oppose Trump's choice of a good man, named Romney, for Secretary of State,..
You deserve a punch in the face, from Romney himself, who , like Trump, does not drink, does not smoke, does not do drugs, and is remarkably fit as well, as his charity boxing match with Evander Holyfield aptly demonstrated.
You don't like Romney?
A pity, because, that's what you're getting.
Trump and Cruz attacked each other viciously during the Primaries, and beyond. So too, did Trump and Romney. All three, gave as good as they got. All three, knew the stakes were high. All three knew they were fighting, for the future of the nation. All three fought like children, over the same toy.
But now, all three have decided to put aside all childish things, and unite , in order to save the country .
Can We the People, who they fight for, do less?
If President-Elect Trump is worth supporting, then so are his choices and decisions, which, so far, have seemingly all been correct, judging by the results.
If you back the man, then, he deserves your trust, your faith too.
Damn it, he's earned it.
Romney's appointment, should stand, as a reminder to all who failed to vote for him in 2012,
That freedom , is not free,
And those who failed to act,
Have only themselves to blame, for all that has come to pass,..
Romney didn't lose in 2012,
Nor did McCain lose, in 2008,..
No, We the People lost those elections,
The worst possible way, to lose any battle,..
By simply, not fighting,..
So be it.
Romney will join Trump's crew as Secretary of State,..
No force of man, can prevent that now,..
And, We the People who truly rule this nation,
Now have our Captain, our ship, and a star to steer by,..
The wind, is at our backs, the sails unfurled,
And adventure lies ahead,..
For all those who dare to sail, this turbulent sea,
This norway malestrom,
This,..America,..
"And all I ask,..is a merry yarn, from a laughing fellow rover,..and a quiet sleep, and a sweet dream,..when the long trick,..is over."
