Quiet, random, acts of kindness | Guest column
People criticize quickly …
1986 — Farmer, Leonard Hill, took his own life believing his life insurance would pay enough, to save his 100-year-old family plantation. A complete stranger in Queens, N.Y. read his story & paid off the remaining $77K mortgage.
1988 — A Rabbi’s critically ill son needed to fly cross country for specialty care. A generous man in Queens paid for his private flight.
A USMC Sergeant spent 7 months, in a Mexican prison for accidentally crossing the border with a firearm. Once released, this man from Queens, sent him a check for $25K.
2013 — A black bus driver saved a suicidal girl from jumping off a bridge. The man from Queens sent him $10K.
2017 — Army Corporal Dillon Baldridge was killed in Afghanistan — The same man sent his father $25K.
When Ed McMahon was dying of cancer, the bank foreclosing on his house, the man from Queens, paid off the house for him.
The man?… Donald Trump, a goodhearted man. He never took a paycheck as President — his entire salary, ($1.6 million), donated to charity. No one demanded it. He just did it.
Do you think Biden, Harris or Obama, would do any of this? How about Bill and Hillary? Their foundation received $145 million in contributions from Russia, but Democrats impeached him twice.
The disdain of mainstream media, NBC, ABC, CBS and The View towards Trump blinds them from fairness. They wallow in disgusting hate. Trump accomplished over 100 positive things for America. He is simply a brilliant, good-hearted human being.
Ever see a photo of Trump walking by himself, around the sacred burial grounds, of Arlington National Cemetery? Ever see stories, of him, waiting, at Dover AFB at 2 a.m. for the arrival of the remain, of those killed in action? Sometimes, Melania would also be there. This is what real leaders do.
There are those, who would say, that Trump is a hard-nosed businessman, who drives tough deals and he may have “offended” some people along the way. Running a successful multi-billion-dollar company, as Trump does, there are times when that happens. He is by no means perfect. Are YOU? He’s not a candidate for Sainthood!
These stories are but a handful, of the good he has done. An objective look at his record while in office speaks volumes when compared, by any yardstick, to the pathetic record of Biden and Harris.
Remember, it was Obama/Biden, who vowed to “Fundamentally change America.” If you don’t think that allowing our southern border to be overrun with 10+ million illegal immigrants is not but one step towards that goal, you have your head in the sand. No border, no nation.
I’m not a Marxist, so I’ll be attempting to get him back in office. The alternative is too ominous, to even contemplate, unless of course you do not care about your children and grandchildren.
I have two sons, and five grandchildren. I care!
