I had the displeasure of being in the company of a Tea Party member about a month ago. These people are crazy when it comes to politics. They actually want to do the unthinkable. This one particular woman stated she was disappointed when the federal government was refunded when the budget wasn't passed. I stated it was irresponsible to carry out such strategies. She stated she had hoped to defund the federal system and crash SSI and Medicare. I told her she isn't much of a Christian if she is willing to go that far for politics. It was then she smiled and stated, well maybe defunding SSI and Medicare might be going to far since the recipients did pay for them.

These people are crazy. They actually do want to do the unthinkable. They have no insight to outcomes if such drastic measures were allowed. Some of these folks are from the 'backwoods.' They found identity with Trumps radical dialogue, but, once they get involved they tend to back down from extremism a bit. One man actually told me during the primaries he wanted Trump to be nominated, but, changed his mind when he realized Trump was too course a personality to be a diplomat. He was intending to vote, though, when he never did before.

At this point, I have to say Donald Trump needs to be taken at face value. 

If he is saying it, he means it and will carry out his plans.
