How about that election! I was so sick and tired of all the negative bantering back and forth this past Tuesday, when I went to sleep I figured that Hillary was going to win. I did check the election results for the states on the East Coast and when I saw that Florida had voted for Trump, I thought there might be a chance. You know about that proverbial snowball.
So I was very surprised when I woke up and found out that Hillary had lost and our new president is The Donald. Now it's going to be time for him to perform. Did he just give empty promises or is he actually going to do something? Personally, I think he will perform. If he can seal our borders so that we keep all the illegal aliens out regardless of their nationality, I would be very happy. A friend of mine said that they should seal the border and give amnesty to everybody that's already here illegally. I told him that in my lifetime they've already done this twice. And each time they say okay now everyone else that comes to our country illegally will be sent back and they never do it. The last president that really sent the illegal aliens back to their own country was President Eisenhower. I heard on the news just yesterday that the attorney involved with ICE said that the last few years they have had their hands tied. They have been so frustrated because they had illegal aliens in their offices handcuffed because of the crimes they have committed and they have been told by those above them in authority to let them go. Hopefully, now we have a president that will allow ICE to do their job.

Can you believe all these emotionally distraught people because Hillary lost and Trump won? It is amazing. Especially college students. They are totally without any backbone. When you look at previous generations the young men that were college age went to war. When going to war during WWII or Vietnam war, there was no email, no cell phones and they were out of communication with their loved ones for weeks and months at a time. These college students are totally spineless. Do you remember when President John Kennedy was assassinated? If you were alive you remember where you were when you heard the news. I was sitting in my US government class Herbert Hoover high school in San Diego California when the teacher announced with tears in his eyes the president had been assassinated. Yes, everybody was sad. There was no grief counseling. No shortening of schooldays. Not so today. These spineless college students have to have a safe place and counseling because Trump won the election. It's just amazing, in a negative way.
Can you imagine if Mrs. Clinton would've won the election and conservatives would have done the same thing these rioters and marchers have done on the streets of Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego and across the country? They would've been called male chauvinist pigs.
Well, enough of that ranting and raving. On a positive note, I reserved a rental car for my trip to Hawaii in January. I used Costco as the go-between with Budget rental car. 1st time I've used Costco to rent a car and I saved a $120. With Budget Rent-A-Car they have this deal called Fast Break. If you sign up for this and it doesn't cost you anything, you give them all your pertinent information like credit card, drivers license and so on. When you rent a car you don't have to fill out any paperwork you just show up and jump in the car and leave. It saves a tremendous amount of time.
I was going to send you a picture of the plant that has been resurrected but I feel to take it during daylight hours and it's dark right now. I'll try and take a picture of it this next week. It's when I talked about last week in the blog
I hope everybody has a great week. Don't forget, Maranatha!
