A vote for Trump

I should not be surprised with the fury that the liberal media and Democrats are going after Donald Trump to retain power of the White House. I still remember how reporter Sam Donaldson of ABC News would belittle then President Ronald Reagan.

The Democrats have been in power for eight years now. Only dictators want to remain in power for long periods of time. We are not in a dictatorship but it sure looks like the Democrats are not willing to give up their power, even after so many years.

It is time for a change. I am a Republican and voted for Barack Obama in 2008, but feel this country is not going in the right direction. If we gave President Obama eight years to lead this country, it is time to give our Republican nominee, Donald Trump, four years to take this country in a new direction.
