How The 'West' Was Won....And What A 'Rush' It Was

           Rush Limbaugh has lost all....all objectivity on his show....as he totally ignores legitimate criticism.....from conservatives....of a man who apparently has become 'too big to fail'....and this going on two years now. Everything he says is as if orchestrated out of the Oval Office. It isn't directly orchestrated from the Oval Office of course but it's as if it could be. It is 100% President Trump public relations. Sarah Huckabee Sanders would never criticize President Trump or volunteer anything negative of Donald Trump in a press briefing.....we expect this.....but Rush does the same thing as a radio talk show host! We conservatives didn't expect this.....and we shouldn't have accepted it....but we did. With Fox News gone....and conservative talk radio essentially gone....we are ripe for simply following a Pied Piper.....and that's what we have done.  Kanye West has become one such follower. The following post is from this past May:

           OK.....Kanye West.....previous to the last few days the only thing that I knew about him was that he was a very rich Rap artist.....that he was married to one of the Kardashions......and that he once stormed the stage of an awards ceremony and grabbed the microphone when he didn't agree with who won some award.
           After perusing Wikipedia......his life and his work....he seems like a very likable guy....and some of the things that he has done are very admirable. In one quoted tweet he said...."I no longer have a manager. I can't be managed." Wow! Who does that remind you of?
           Few political commentators on the national scene have paid for their outspokenness as much as Dinesh D'Souza. I have to wonder if Kanye West saw D'Souza's 2016 documentary Hillary's America, The Secret History of the Democrat Party?  This film was so good that liberal critics on one particular web site gave it a 4% approval rating....which means that it was probably 96% good....and it was the 8th highest grossing political political documentary of all time. If West did see that film then that might explain a lot of his opinions of late.....opinions which would also probably get a 4% approval rating from his peers. The film is powerful and I'm sure that you can pick up the DVD cheap if you have never viewed it. (I'm in no hurry to see D'Souza's newest film Death Of A Nation...subtitle Can We (emphasis mine) Save America A Second Time....as the descriptions of it that I've read indicate that he....after helping get of the rats....is falling himself for a Pied Piper. This what I'm doing in these posts is what we're supposed to do isn't it....credit the person when credit is due....and be critical when that is in order....even of our own folks? And this is what conservative talk radio should have done with candidate turned President Trump but they have dug for themselves a hole that will be hard to get out of.)
           Kanye West's support of President Trump is a major development. It's also a natural development as we are seeing that conservative principles make life better for minorities and all Americans. My concern with all the hoopla concerning Kanye West....and it's a big one....is that it may not be conservative common sense that won over Mr. West...but a personality not too dissimilar to his own. Now there is another person on the national stage who I'm not familiar with....Candace Owens...who tweeted...."I truly believe that @Donald Trump isn't just the leader of the free world, but the savior of it as well." Kanye West retweeted her tweet. Folks...Donald Trump is not our Savior....we do realize that do we not? Sometimes I wonder.
           This is the problem. In our defense of President Trump against a deep state coup we ignore what should be a serious concern about Donald Trump's lifelong personality and character...a man who never forgets something done to him.....where truth is a non-entity in the art of the deal....where study is not necessary to a natural genius....and where as I have mentioned before.....Donald Trump is showing signs of the of Nebuchadnezzar mentality of...."Is not this great Babylon, which I have built by my mighty power as a royal residence and for the glory of my majesty." (Daniel 4:30)
            Strong conservative constitutional principles roused the American public in putting an end to Hillary Clinton's ambitions but Donald Trump has taken those principles and transposed them with his own majesty. We are no longer conservatives.....we are Trumpsters.....and unless Donald Trump acquires some semblance of humility as did Nebuchadnezzar after eating grass for seven whatevers....then we will regret what we will have built.
