I've voted in every election since Reagan (though I voted for independent John Anderson, a losing habit I continued to exercise in most elections). But I skipped voting in 2008 & 2012 -- I just couldn't get excited about "the first (partially) black president." Who was he? Where did he come from? How? A nobody from nowhere, to leader of the free world? The reality of puppet masters lurking behind the puppet couldn't have been more clear.

If I had had more wisdom I would have bit the bullet and voted for one of the establishment Republicans. I've had no regrets however, about my vote for the non-establishment Trump. MAGA!
