Earlier this year when it became apparent that Trump's amateur cabinet was becoming detrimental to the nation's welfare, this blog began speaking out. As the damage added up, I felt compelled to call out our silent, local Washington representatives, first as compliant, then complicit with veering away from our nation's moral compass.
My conservative readership, Republican first and foremost, started accusing me of TDS, which is a poor excuse for deteriorating leadership. Partisans slowed down commenting in protest. When Mackenzie signed the Democratic petition, explanations mentioned that we're in a purple area.
We're in more than a purple area, we're in a condition red. I had posted that unless Mackenzie stood up, he wouldn't be re-elected. It is now becoming apparent that unless the Republicans forcibly act out, Trump will be using our military on personal whims. Whether they can restrain him, remains to be seen.

Do you consider me one of your conservative, Republican readers?
ReplyDeleteI certainly qualify as a long time reader.
I believe you suffer from pronounced TDS, yes, and that it clouds your analysis, profoundly.
I’m perplexed by your condition.
Yeah, I find some of Trump’s Cabinet lacking. Clearly the Biden administration had some extraordinarily marginal players, to be kind. The Obama years were largely a continuation of the Bush years. Your other reading can add their expert commentary here.
For twenty years both parties fed us misinformation, disinformation and outright lies about the situation in Afghanistan on the foreign policy front.
A calamity resulted.
I was constantly critical.
Government at the federal level has been failing the American people and both corrupt corporate political parties are largely bankrupt.
As for Trump?
He’s the most consequential POTUS in my lifetime. I, too, was born during the Truman administration.
Is the sky falling?
I think not.

One day you should explain to your readers how thwarting Trump, removing Trump, or just reversing all the improvements and corrections Trump has achieved could possibly improve our social, financial, and cultural well-being.
ReplyDeleteThis country is at risk of being overthrown and made into a post-Constitutional, majority Islamic nation. Too late to return to old ways and start all over.
Avoidance of this blog is one of my top New Years' resolutions.
ReplyDeleteTrump isn’t really a person, he’s just a brand. You wear his caps, you wear his tshirts. You are attached to him in a way that you might have been attached to rock band in the 70s. He says things you understand, but he doesn’t really speak for you. He’s a club that makes you feel wanted. When he leaves office his kids will try to “extend” the brand. Memberships to Mar a Lago will still be available. His brand is now on the Kennedy Center and the White House.
ReplyDeleteCall Trump whatever you like. There is already NO doubt the "product" he brings to America has produced good results for Americans. Should we stand in the way of that? I say, that would be foolish.
DeleteThe Trump brand certainly put the kybash to the Iranian nuclear power, eh?

DeleteBummer how Scranton Joe, Kamala and Governor Tim Walls of Minnesota, beseeched what was projected to be the grand legacy of the Nobel Peace Prize recipient, Barack Hussain Obama. (How are the plans for the Biden Library coming?)
I saw some way cool Hunter Biden heavyweight tees on line a few days
ago. I will be ordering several after Januarys SS check comes in.
Hunter has some branding I can really get behind, even in my golden years I have a streak of bad white boy in me.
