Like most political junkies, I scan the internet throughout the day; watch television news, and frequent twitter to take it all in. As I wade through it, knowing some is fake news, some is true, and decide what I actually believe, I am continually amazed with the two very different sides of nearly all subjects. We live, arguably, in the second most divided times in our history. Only during the civil war was our country this divided. Being a conservative, I of course lay the blame directly on the shoulders of past President Obama and I cannot be convinced otherwise.
Those of us who claim to be true patriots have deep beliefs that Mr. Obama set our country back 50 years relating to race relations and the overall meaning of what America is. Obama left us with a country with few values. During his administration everything became okay except standing up for who we are as Americans. Everything that depicted who we are (were) was moved out of the main stream and into the realm of outcast and hatred. The country was founded on Christian principles yet Christians were viewed as evil. Eight years of the past administration turned everything up-side-down. When Mr. Obama said in a speech he would fundamentally change America, he meant it. That was his greatest, albeit, negative, achievement.
After eight years, Americans who don’t normally speak out, Americans who have always been known for keeping their head down, working hard, paying their taxes, rolling with the punches and those who cherish their Christian values could no longer stand by and watch the systematic dismantling of their beloved America. Once the fundamental changes started to affect their families and their Christian way of life, their voices had to be heard. First, the Republicans took back the House of Representatives. Then they (Patriots) paused and watched for two more years. Disappointed with the lack of directional change, they turned the Senate over to the Republicans with the hope that things would move back to the center and many of the changes would be reversed. Well, no move to the center and no reversal of the fundamental change. So, the so-called silent majority stayed home and allowed Obama to be reelected in 2012. By the time Obama’s eight years were over that same silent majority rose up and rejected all of the Washington norms. No Clinton, no Jeb Bush, not even a Tea Party Senator named Ted Cruz. The silent majority took the gloves off and elected someone with no Washington political experience. In came billionaire Donald J. Trump and a divided country became even more divided.
Fast forward to today, a year and half after the President took office. Those of us on the Right are feeling positive about the future of the country. Those on the Left have spent every day doing anything they could to destroy the President. Admittedly, we on the Right wanted Obama out. But, and this is important, we never wanted to see America fail. We disliked Obama in a major way but we never screamed impeachment; we just screamed about his policies and the laws that he broke. We knew he was our President. We acknowledge that. We didn’t like it but we knew we only have one President at a time and so we suffered through those eight years. The Left however refuse to give the President any credit for anything. I’m sorry to say, the Left does not believe that Trump is their President. They are willing to do whatever it takes, even if it means harming the nation, to have him removed from office and not by waiting for the next election. They want him out yesterday and by any means. They will and have lied and cheated at every turn for the last year and a half. It continues and won’t stop. It’s pretty incredible really. The Left and their partners the main stream media continue to be ruthless.
One of the biggest complaints the Right has is the lack of equal justice. The President has been handicapped with the made up Russia-collusion story while corrupt leaders on the Left continue to walk freely. Those within our law agencies will never regain American’s trust unless real and honest justice is served upon those who, quite frankly, have abused our country. In my opinion, the main culprits that must face justice are Obama, Hillary, Holder, Rice, Lynch, Comey, McCabe, Rosenstein, Page, Shultz, Clapper and Brennan.
This week we are finally starting to see hope that real justice could come. This is extremely satisfying. If President Trump can accomplish nothing more during his presidency than ensuring equal justice is applied, he will go down as the President who saved America and restored our legal justice system. This truly is a “future possibility” and one that this writer prays for. Only by Trump winning the presidency has all of this injustice been exposed. A Hillary Presidency would have truly been the final nail in the American Justice System’s coffin. Trump said he would put America first. 15 months later, after having endured hell inside the Washington beltway, he continues to move forward to deliver our country back to the American people; the people who still believe in our flag, our families, our rule of law, and our freedom. What a huge undertaking. So much to restore, so much to change and there is no question it is a battle every single day. Fight on Mr. President, fight on.
