BATTLEPOINTS MEMO 2016 -- WITH SPECIAL BREXIT EDITION (#1 26 JUN 2016)






BATTLEPOINTS MEMO 2016
Weekly summation of articles from Cats, Guns, and National Security

Making America great again with Donald J. Trump
#1 26 JUN 2016

(Posted on "Cats, Guns, and National Security" -- http://catsgunsandnationalsecurity.blogspot.com/ )


FROM THE EDITOR (ME):

Very simple: Brexit passed, Trump on track (and on topic).

MAGA

=====

SPECIAL ITEMS:

1. In honor of our British cousins proclaiming their Independence Day:




---



BATTLEPOINT: Stirring. This guy could indeed be the UK's Donald Trump.

-----




BATTLEPOINT: This says it itself.

-----




BATTLEPOINT: It's less about her slipping up and saying it than it that it was actually put into the prepared text. People slammed Sarah Palin for writing a few talking points on her hand.  Hillary has to have her spontaneous reactions scripted.


=====

NEWS STORIES:


BATTLEPOINT: Sessions is supportive of Trump and does a FINE job of putting things in perspective and context. He distances himself on something Trump said about Obama, but it doesn't make Trump look bad, it just makes him and others look wimpy.

-----



BATTLEPOINT: Donald, Jr. and Eric are truly pro-gun.  Their father will listen to them in the end.

-----


The people of the United Kingdom have exercised the sacred right of all free peoples. They have declared their independence from the European Union, and have voted to reassert control over their own politics, borders and economy. A Trump Administration pledges to strengthen our ties with a free and independent Britain, deepening our bonds in commerce, culture and mutual defense. The whole world is more peaceful and stable when our two countries – and our two peoples – are united together, as they will be under a Trump Administration.

 Come November, the American people will have the chance to re-declare their independence. Americans will have a chance to vote for trade, immigration and foreign policies that put our citizens first. They will have the chance to reject today's rule by the global elite, and to embrace real change that delivers a government of, by and for the people. I hope America is watching, it will soon be time to believe in America again.

BATTLEPOINT: Key section: "A Trump Administration pledges to strengthen our ties with a free and independent Britain, deepening our bonds in commerce, culture and mutual defense. The whole world is more peaceful and stable when our two countries – and our two peoples – are united together, as they will be under a Trump Administration."

Often, Britain makes changes that precede U. S. action. The Thatcher movement preceded the Reagan revolution. Both were victories for the people over outdated and corrupt forces. Both were achieved against powerful and determined establishment forces. Both resulted in historic and positive periods in their nation's history.

BATTLEPOINT: Nationalism is spreading again among the Occidental peoples.  Let us in America not blunt it again, as we did electing the Great Black Hope and Muslim in Chief.  Do the RIGHT thing this time.

-----

Brexit: It wasn't about economics. It was about culture.

(LANGUAGE WARNING:) Gavin McInnes of TheRebel.media on the Brexit results. At first he was torn about Great Brit...


BATTLEPOINT: THIS is the ultimate issue.  BUILD THE WALL!

Donald J. Trump Statement on Executive Amnesty Ruling


Today's 4-4 Supreme Court ruling has blocked one of the most unconstitutional actions ever undertaken by a President. The executive amnesty from President Obama wiped away the immigration rules written by Congress, giving work permits and entitlement benefits to people illegally in the country. This split decision also makes clear what is at stake in November. The election, and the Supreme Court appointments that come with it will decide whether or not we have a border and, hence, a country. Clinton has pledged to expand Obama's executive amnesty, hurting poor African-American and Hispanic workers by giving away their jobs and federal resources to illegal immigrant labor – while making us all less safe. It is time to protect our country and Make America Safe Again and Great Again for everyone.

REFERENCE ITEMS (IN PROGRESS):





-----


REGARDING DONALD TRUMP'S PAST "ASSAULT WEAPONS" BAN STATEMENT (Attachment "TrumpAW")

1. Trump's prior acceptance of bans on such was expressed in a statement which otherwise noted his general OPPOSITION to gun control.

2. Trump has been forthright about his understanding of the issue being corrected (by his outdoorsmen sons, notably):

"[T]he media describes the AR-15 as an 'assault rifle,' which is one example of the many distortions they use to sell their agenda. However, the AR-15 does not fall under this category. Gun-banners are unfortunately preoccupied with the AR-15, magazine capacity, grips, and other aesthetics, precisely because of its popularity." (Ammoland interview, 07 JUL 2015)

3. Trump publicly and vociferously OPPOSED the NY SAFE Act "assault weapons" ban in 2013.


"Gun and magazine bans are a total failure. That's been proven every time it's been tried. Opponents of gun rights try to come up with scary sounding phrases like 'assault weapons', 'military-style weapons' and 'high capacity magazines' to confuse people. What they're really talking about are popular semi-automatic rifles and standard magazines that are owned by tens of millions of Americans. Law-abiding people should be allowed to own the firearm of their choice. The government has no business dictating what types of firearms good, honest people are allowed to own."

5. THE BLUNT POLITICS OF IT ALL: EVERY nominated Republican Presidential candidate since 1980, save for John McCain, has expressed support for or acceptance of such a ban while in--or in Ronald Reagan's case, after leaving--political office.  For their part, McCain worked with "Americans for Gun Safety," an anti-gun front group, and Reagan as California governor also signed serious anti-gun legislation. For Trump's opponents to hold his flatly renounced statement as a non-politician against him over 15 years later, but conveniently ignore the history of their ringleader Mitt Romney and others, when faced with the likes of Hillary Clinton as the likely Democrat nominee, demonstrates the intellectual disingenuousness and character vacuum of their entire effort.  NeverTrumpers are concerned solely about their own personal political interests, not the survival of the country.
