President Trump Superbowl Ad – The Story of Alice Johnson…

Highlighting the historic accomplishment of criminal justice reform during his first term in office, the campaign for President Donald J. Trump presents the story of Alice Johnson:

President Trump accomplished historic criminal justice reform in just his first term in office. Increasing job training for inmates, shortened sentences, and giving second chances to those that truly deserve it.

        And this is but one of the flaws in this entire effort that was pushed through for political reasons and as such it is both ill-conceived and poorly executed as the number of those reoffending after having received the benefits of the program.

        One of a number of things POTUS has done or failed to do with which I strongly disagree.

        I hasten to add, however, that I will be a firm supporter of his for the election and his second term.

          Making a Dershowitzian observation, remember that Jared Kushner’s father was imprisoned thus making this both a political AND a personal goal accomplished with his father-in-laws blessings and cooperation.

            Charles Kushner has been out of prison for 14 years. He has always been a Democrat and a Democrat supporter, until he gave Trump money in 2016.

            This had no effect on his father.

            His Son is a registered Republican and had nothing to do with his fathers crime. Why the linkage? Are you responsible for your parents mistakes or crimes?

            I am not a fan of either Jared or his wife, but we need to be accurate. We are not leftists.

            As for the legislation, I was glad to see it, was a long time coming, but in my opinion it needs to be tightened up. Every case needs to be judged on its’ own merits or faults.

            “Jared Kushner’s father was imprisoned” – convicted of illegal campaign contributions, tax evasion, and witness tampering.

            Charles Kushner

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Kushner

            “Kushner was fined $508,900 by the Federal Election Commission for contributing to Democratic political campaigns in the names of his partnerships when he lacked authorization to do so.”

            Jared Kushner

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jared_Kushner

            “Jared Kushner had been a lifelong Democrat prior to his father-in-law Donald Trump entering politics.[47] He had donated over $10,000 to Democratic campaigns[48] starting at young age of 11. In 2008 he donated to the campaign for Hillary Clinton and his newspaper the New York Observer endorsed Barack Obama over John McCain in the US presidential election.[49] After expressing disappointment with Barack Obama, however, he endorsed Republican U.S. presidential nominee Mitt Romney in 2012 via the New York Observer.[50] In 2014 he continued to donate to Democratic groups,[49]”

                Jared and his wife are on the liberal spectrum. Everyone knows this, including President Trump. Despite that fact they have been a hell of a lot more loyal to POTUS than a good many Republicans.

                I would just note that there are a lot of people right here in the Treehouse who don’t consider themselves Republicans. Not that they’re Democrats, of course… because while Repubs still leave a lot to be desired at times, the Dems are downright insane and evil at this point in history. But just because someone isn’t a Republican doesn’t mean much all by itself. I’ve said before that the very first Repub I ever voted for was a guy named Donald Trump. (I stupidly voted for Obama in ’08, but NOT in ’12.)

            I’m not blaming voters. I’m asking voters to take the power away from those who abuse the privileges lent to them. Keep the decent ones and send the others packing.

              IMHO the “little people’s vote” has been corrupted. Look at my beloved Virginia. We are NOT a blue state but so much money was spent on local and state level races, and it’s been hard to tell the good from the bad. VA is the new Kalipornia. We are a “Right to Work” state yet the teacher’s Union is way too powerful, Bloomberg + Zorro spent 100,000 Million on hiring DA’s, Sheriffs, Secretaries of State (elections) and overturning power in the state legislature. If the laws are not enforced, they don’t get to court where POTUS has put Constitutional Judges, illegals vote, our children are being taught porn and trash and we can’t opt out. In one year the takeover of VA was swift and complete. 1st, 2nd, 4th Amendments are gone the first week of the new legislators taking office. I pray this will be turned around. God Bless America!!

    That’s key. Giving second chances to those that actually deserve it

    Although their actions may have contributed to a larger problem rife with consequences for those caught up in it, people have and do repent, show real remorse and learn from their mistakes

    The democrats are hell-bent on social justice nonsense and try to decriminalize savage acts of violence for nonredeemable violent miscreants who think nothing of shooting into crowds and don’t care who gets killed

    President Trump weighs the life circumstances of those who didn’t commit violent acts and takes their words to heart in order to decide who deserves mercy, and bestowing mercy on a deserving person is to truly follow God’s teaching

    I’m trying to figure out the problem so many people have in understanding President Trump and what he does. Their mistake is that, whether on the right or left of the spectrum, they are thinking ideologically. But the President’s greatest attribute is that he is blissfully free from any political ideology. Instead, his only motivations are to do what is right for the country he loves and for the people he loves.

    I don’t suppose his heart is technically any larger than mine but the amount of love he crams into it is truly amazing – I’d burst! If he follows his natural instinct and delivers a loving solution to a problem it may seem ‘liberal’ to some, while at other times he may seem ‘far right’ to others. However, when looked at dispassionately he is one of the most ‘centered’ people you’ll ever find.

    Thankfully he is a businessman not a politician, is not ‘owned’ by any party or other interest, and is able to apply common sense instead of ideology and do what he does for the people.

    If you don’t like his solution to a problem then reassess your own thinking, don’t trash his.
