When you live in a world where people who go to Harvard and Yale adopt socialism as a means to an end you have little recourse other than to exercise the freedom so many died for by using your vote for a leader that represents the people not the state. Those of us who attended school in the 1950’s before American education partnered with government becoming a propaganda mechanism of the state, recall vividly the warnings of our instructors about the dangers of central state control.
Those were very different times, and the battle lines were clearly delineated. We could witness what Nikita Khrushchev and Fidel Castro were up to and we saw the Iron Curtain (Berlin Wall) erected in our lifetime. Oddly, about the same time, there was a movement in US leadership getting underway led by President Lyndon Johnson called the Great society. These people apparently believed they could contain the monster of socialism as an army for good in a kinder, gentler manifestation. This was the height of arrogance and a failure to understand the basic evil of pure socialism which always devolves into totalitarianism.
Our founders recognized this, so they encouraged us to construct our government from the bottom up, not the top down, with our votes. They knew that the people would instinctively recognize when a government used propaganda to turn the people against one another.
The 2020 US presidential election is an ugly crossroads where an obnoxious, self-righteous government poisoned the integrity of the vote to hold on to power. They used a national emergency to enlist a hostile, mercenary force, the US Postal Service, that saw the election of the people’s choice as the possible end of their unionized existence, to contaminate the voting structure with fraud.
Their goal was to overthrow the election with corruption, and they may possibly succeed because propaganda is powerful, and many media outlets are jumping ship like rats to survive the aftermath. Faith in our election process has been destroyed forever, only fools cannot see that.
The people had to line up behind a leader who was unpolished, and some would say uncouth because he was the only one not corrupted with and controlled by the power of the growing socialist state. Sham investigations have been ubiquitous since his election and now a rigged election is poised to stand with no investigation at all.
This is not just a lost election; it could be a lost country.
Well, I don't see it all that one-sided. For sure, this election was ENGINEERED to a desired outcome, but it would not have been possible without Trump's highly predictable and consistent naïveté toward how Washington really works combined with his inability to ever shut up and stop being an ass at times unnecessarily insulting others and rubbing them the wrong way 24/7 with his late night tweets, braggadocio, thin skin and ego.
Don't get me wrong, I like Trump and support him, but the democrats are masters at political smear tactics, they have 99% of the media to back them, and Trump is a Who's Who of source material to attack with--- made all the worse with his inexplicable near-ignoring of the Covid issue all summer long as something to be addressed to the nation to at least APPEAR like there was some motion there other than his just waiting for a vaccine and just daring the little bug to get people sick at his many functions.
That shot him right in his own ass.
Even after it was plain the Dems intended to make that their main issue, he STILL insisted on flipping Covid the bird!
This election may have been stolen, but Trump walked right into it face first, and gave the Left everything they could have ever wanted or need. And in at least that ONE regard, I feel very disappointed in Trump because he was a great president otherwise, the kind of leader we really needed to get the right things done.
And very likely now we'll have Joe Biden instead and a VERY divided country, one side certain the election was rigged, and the other side fixated on a hellfire retaliation against the other half of the country for daring to stand up to them and their socialist-globalist-uber progressive agenda.
