Geez people, let me help
I want to tell you the story of a young woman who you have probably never heard of. Her name is Mary Anne. She was born on a remote island in Scotland, where life was harsh and unforgiving.
On May 2, 1930, when she was 18 years old, she got on a boat headed for Ellis Island to start a new life. She arrived here 11 days later.
She wasn't chasing fame, riches, or power. She came for the unique opportunity that America offered. Her sister was already here and had found a job as a maid. So, Mary Anne MacLeod joined her, listing her occupation as “domestic” on her Ellis Island immigration papers.
She came to America knowing that she would clean the houses and toilets of the wealthy families in New York. She and her sister lived and worked hard through the worst days of the Depression. And she persevered.
Six years later, she married a man named Fred. He was the son of German immigrants. Then In 1942, she became a citizen.
Mary and Fred would end up having five children: two daughters and three sons.
One of those sons, they named Donald.
A woman who came here as a maid, the lowest of jobs, would raise a son who would change the very skyline that greeted his mother when she arrived at Ellis Island.
After that, he would become the 45th and 47th President of the United States.
There is no other country in the world where a woman can arrive with nothing, and in ONE generation, her son would lead the entire world.
For America’s 250th anniversary, I wanted to present President Trump with this painting I did, and then I ran out of time and talent. So, I asked a good friend of mine, Mike Malm, to help me finish it. This is how I envisioned her coming into the United States.
Mary Anne MacLeod Trump should be a household name. Her story is everything that is great about America.

Black churches are gonna be lit tomorrow. They will get their early and stay late. The preaching of the gospel will have to take a seat after 10 minutes.

Back when people were expected to work for a living, no handouts, and no third-worlders.
Amazing how well that model worked.

Shaquandra has no excuse. She can learn a trade or go to school if she wants.

Yes and it is my understanding this was before the implementation of FDR's disastrous cradle to death, count on government policies.

My grandparents picked cotton in rural MS off HW24 circa 1950s.
America is a great nation and I despise the leeches and scum that have no appreciation for our history but are quite content to stay here and leech.

If tweet fails to load, click here. Fraudulent millionaires have replaced the original hard working immigrants.

My maternal grandmother grew up in rural Foley, Alabama. She and her siblings would chase down rabbits for dinner. They would get them to run through a hollow, fallen tree and one would wait with a club on the other end for it to come out, and bash it in the head. I didn't know that until someone said it in the eulogy at her funeral.

I don't know if there is a point there as many world leaders came out of nothing. It's not unique to any particular country, it's neither good nor bad, it's just how random the world can be. As long as there's no caste system in place and there's a social change, things can happen.

Beck is such a pandering clown. Remember the night before the 2016 election when everyone thought Hillary would win, and Beck was crying and saying she was awesome while praising the Obamas as having given him great inspiration in his life.
Now he’s Mr conservative Christian crusader again. Total media whore phony, but he still fools a lot of people on here, so I guess it works.

Perhaps.
I like to think he learned and evolved. I know I heard him directly state (this past week); quotes attributed to him saying about Trump in 2016 were accurate... with humility, acknowledging it's OK to be wrong. Just own it and move on.
