It’s a not bad, very good, s’wonderful, s’marvelous day in America.
First and foremost, Americans should thank God for his mercies.
We know that “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.”
In President-elect Donald Trump’s first term, despite seemingly insuperable obstacles socially constructed by leftists, he accomplished much, including securing the border, helping bring peace to the Middle East, making America energy-independent, appointing good Supreme Court Justices, and presiding over an economy that was booming until the Chinese Communist government unleashed a plague on the world.
One of the most dramatic and important achievements of Trump’s first term was exposing the corruption of the legacy press and the dangerous collusion between the press, social media behemoths, the DNC, and the federal government.
Were it not for the frothing hatred of leftists for President Trump, who refused to play political games and refused to turn tail under the withering assaults of every kind launched against him, it seems unlikely that the extent of their corruption would have become known.
Americans witnessed the injustices and abuse of power that Trump endured, and they became justifiably angry. They saw the threat to freedom posed by an enormous, unaccountable, entrenched leftist bureaucracy hell-bent on controlling the minutiae of our lives.
Americans, inspired and emboldened by Trump’s courage and tenacity, started speaking out against the injustices and abuses of power that they too had been enduring for years at the hands of Democrats.
Parents began to speak out against the pornographic literature leftist teachers were encouraging minor children to read. Parents began to speak out against taxpayer-funded schools promoting leftist beliefs on homosexuality and gender confusion, including concealing information from parents about their own children.
Parents saw the indoctrination, saw the failure of schools to teach the basics that their children need to succeed, and wanted the freedom to choose.
Those parents want the freedom to choose where their children are educated, but leftists, who caterwaul continuously about “choice” steadfastly refuse to allow parents that freedom.
Americans began speaking out against men in women’s sports and private spaces.
Americans began to speak out against the ugly leftist claim that all white people are racist oppressors and that men are toxic.
Struggling Americans saw illegal immigrants receiving taxpayer-funded phones, food, and housing that legal citizens were denied.
Americans, seeing the pernicious consequences of the leftist effort to reward skin color, sex, erotic desires, and cross-dressing at the expense of skills, knowledge, and character, rebelled.
And then came Oct. 7, 2023, when the world saw in obscene, incomprehensible images the poisonous fruit of antisemitism.
Americans saw innocent Israeli civilians raped, tortured, and burned alive by Iranian-supported savages, following which the streets and campuses of America were filled with shocking chants in support of Hamas—the poisonous fruit of leftist propaganda at American colleges and universities that receive taxpayer funds.
This was piled on the trash heap of leftist policies and practices that destroyed the economy making food gas, and housing unaffordable; weakened the military; emboldened our geopolitical enemies; incentivized border lawlessness; exacerbated the fentanyl crisis; and made cities unsafe and unlivable.
When Biden’s dementia became impossible to deny, Americans fully realized how little respect Dems have for them, and still Dems couldn’t help themselves. A small cadre of leftists—i.e., Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer—decided the American thing to do, the democratic thing, was stage a de facto coup and install an incompetent, disliked identity-hire for whom not one Democrat had voted as the Democrat presidential candidate.
Kamala Harris’ campaign promises boiled down to 1. “Trump is Hitler, and I’m not.” 2. “My government will be committed to killing humans in utero from conception to birth for any or no reason.”
Remember Howard Beale’s plea to Americans:
I don’t have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. … shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter; punks are running wild in the street, and there’s nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there’s no end to it.
… we sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes, as if that’s the way it’s supposed to be!
We all know things are bad — worse than bad — they’re crazy.
…
So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window, open it, and stick your head out and yell, “I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not going to take this anymore!”
But Americans did something better than shout out their windows. Americans of every demographic voted with their feet to throw leftist bums out.
As it turns out men and women of every color believe that a well-ordered, safe society depends on the existence and enforcement of good, wise, decent laws and constitutional protections.
They want to maintain the extraordinarily generous immigration laws of the United States, and they want to prevent the unjust flouting of those laws, including by dangerous criminals and enemies of America.
They want America to have a strong military—uncorrupted by CRT/DEI dogma—a military that keeps America safe from the predations of our enemies.
And they want an economy that works for ordinary Americans—not just celebrities (whose opinions, by the way, mean nothing to ordinary Americans).
Women and men of all ages, races, ethnicities should rejoice that maybe, just maybe, the power and systemic influence of leftists and their pernicious ideas will die.
