This coming Tuesday, November 6th, we decide who controls Congress. Currently, by the narrowest margins, the Republicans control both the House and the Senate. As the President says, if just one or two Republicans come down with a cold our majority is gone. It is that close.
This mid-term election has taken on the feeling of a presidential election year. Why does this mid-term feel so much more important than those of the past? Historically, voter turnout for a mid-term election is much lower than a presidential election, yet every indication is that this election will exceed all prior mid-terms. Again, why do you suppose this is?
The American people have been sending a very clear message to Washington for nearly a decade. Obama started his presidency having both the House and Senate. Two years into his first term, he lost the House. This was a message to him and to Washington as a whole that we did not like the direction in which the country was headed. Then the country reelected Obama and for at least half the country this was a huge disappointment. Then, two years into his second term the Republicans kept the House and took the Senate away from Obama and the Democrats. Sending Washington yet another message.
By this time though, Obama had greatly damaged the American way of life. America was forced to endure eight years of Obama but, at least they were able to slow down his agenda. No longer controlling Congress during his last two years, he was unable to achieve anything that would be lasting because nearly all of his accomplishments had to be done through executive orders; which any future President could easily change or erase and President Trump has done that.
During the Obama years, we suffered through high unemployment, millions of families lost their homes, and millions of American workers were laid off or saw their hours reduced at work. The one and only major accomplishment of Obama and the Democrats occurred during his first term when they had both houses of Congress. This is when they gave us Obamacare, or the “Affordable Care Act” which as we quickly learned is everything but affordable. We also learned that he and others lied to us; as we were not able to “keep our doctor” nor if we “liked our plan we could keep our plan, period” as he put it.
Obama gave us open borders, he let our Ambassador and three others die in Benghazi. He signed onto a nuclear deal with Iran and paid them billions of dollars, to boot. He signed onto the Paris Climate Accord, costing the American tax payer to send billions of dollars to other countries, who, in turn spent the money however they wanted. And trust me, it wasn’t to control the climate.
Obama added more to the national debt than all previous Presidents combined. His policies put more people on food stamps than ever before. The Democrats told the American people that this was “good for the economy.”
Businesses moved out of the US due to high regulations and high corporate taxes. This only added to the already struggling economy. Banks were bailed out, even favored businesses were bailed out, all with tax payer money. Obama quickly became known for picking winners and losers. Yes, there was a deep recession but, thanks to Obama’s lack of experience the recovery was the slowest in our history and never truly recovered averaging less than 2% GDP throughout his eight years. Many say and I have to agree that through his borrowing from China the American tax payer all but rebuilt China and turned them into the powerhouse of the world. The on-going battle in the Middle East increased not decreased and the terror group ISIS became stronger under Obama’s watch.
During these years the American people kept working hard and sending a clear message to Washington and Obama. We were not happy, we stripped him and the Democrats of the House, then the Senate and finally in 2016 the White House.
Still, after all of that, the Democrats are double and tripling down on the same old, tired narrative. During these past two years, they’ve made it crystal clear they care more about illegals than they do for you and me. Even though Americans elected Trump because he promised to build the wall and revamp an old and no longer viable immigration system. The Democrats don’t care. They make it clear that it is their way or no way. Their hate for the President has been unparalleled. They launched the fake Russian investigation and without any cause, called for his impeachment.
In the meantime, the President has delivered on nearly every promise he made and any promise not delivered is due to the direct opposition of the Democrats. Not one Democrat voted in favor of the President’s tax cuts. None were in favor of pulling out of the Paris Accord, none are in favor of the wall and over hauling immigration. All the Democrats talk about is impeachment, socialism and open borders.
It is for these reasons that our work is not done. While the President works tirelessly, for free I might add, he asks only one thing from us. To vote and to give him the super majority he needs to enact his full agenda, the very agenda we hired (elected) him for.
The Democrats have gone completely off the rails; protests, pussy hats, ANTIFA and even Democratic Congress people calling for unrest in the streets. You’ve heard them. “When their down (republicans) kick them.” There can be no civility in America until we (the Dems) are back in control. “If you see any of the President’s cabinet you gather others and you disrupt whatever they’re doing.” And then there is the main stream media and Hollywood, the Left’s right hand. “Yes, I have often thought about blowing up the White House.” “When was the last time an actor assassinated a President?” “The problem in this country is white males, what are we going to do about them?” “Trump is a racist.” And finally, deep thinker Robert DeNero’s famous words “Fuck Trump.” This is today’s Democratic Party.
We cannot give up now. We’ve worked too hard to change the makeup of Washington to just sit back and “hope” the Democrats, these deranged hate America people don’t take back all of Congress. If they do, the America-first agenda will all but end and we will certainly restart the slow and painful path toward socialism were the promise is for everything to be free. Socialism, a system where we give all that we earn to Washington and they decide who gets what. A system that has literary failed every time it’s been tried.
Thanks to Obama we are most certainly a divided nation still to this day. He spent eight years splitting us up into groups.
On one side you have the blue collar workers who are now back working. Thanks to President Trump today we actually have more jobs available than we have workers to fill them. We have big business returning to the country and investing in America like never before. Millions upon millions of Americans have regained their losses (and then some) in their retirement programs again, thanks to President Trump. These Americans only want to be left alone, to feel safe and to have the opportunity to provide for their families. Today we have thousands upon thousands of illegals heading to our borders demanding entry and our President promises this isn’t going to happen. He puts our safety first.
On the other side you have the coastal elites, New York and California, two states with the highest poverty combined with the highest taxes in the entire country. It is these elite, globalists who are pushing the Left’s agenda. California is focused on plastic straws and New York wants law enforcement disbanded. Hollywood, California is made up of people who don’t have a clue what it is like to live and work in the real world. These are the same folks that demand that we give up our guns and scream against the idea of a wall while they live behind huge walls in their mansions which are guarded 24/7 by armed protectors. Then we have the New York main stream media who day after day spew lies about this President; trying to get into the minds of millions of Americans. If all you watch is the MSM you know nothing more than this President is a racist evil person working to take America down. Everything he does, everything is bad, evil and racist…
Thankfully, still to this day and hopefully forever, Americans have the power to choose. This midterm election is the most important mid-term election in my lifetime. Please vote as if your life depended upon it, because it does.
If the 2016 election taught us anything, it taught us that our votes still count. We beat all the odds when we elected the President. We must do it again on November 6th. I ask you, which of the following headline do you want to read on November 7th?
The blue wave was real. The Democrats have regained both the House and the Senate. Speaker Nancy Pelosi has vowed to impeach the President, offer sanctuary for all and repeal the Trump Tax Cuts.
Or
The Republicans win the House and Senate by wide margins giving the President a super majority. Americans have once again spoken. The new leader of the House announces the complete and total funding of the border wall and vows to rewrite the nation’s immigration laws.
The Senate Majority Leader announces a full investigation into Hillary Clinton and the Obama administration’s role in the 2016 Russian hoax and the Benghazi debacle.
We can’t stop now Folks. I’ve already voted. Have you?
