Anyone who thinks the Democrats (AKA Communists) are going to easily give up what they have worked for 100 years to put in place is delusional! The fight is going to be long, and before it's over, I fear, very bloody.

Well..... speaking as one who has only been painfully aware (I wasn't into politics for the first third of my life...)... of how destructive and intentionally disastrous that the Democrats (AKA Commies) were going to be ... intentionally destroying our way of life and our freedom, our happiness, our feeling of being safe in our own communities... and everything that previously made America "great"...

I have to say now..... they are going to have to grow a pair in order to defeat us on the right now...

and.... thanks to their dumbfk ideaolgy...

I don't see that happening.

That is hilarious!!!

Bernie's expression is equally hilarious!

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

I sincerely hope you are right and you can depend on me doing everything in my power to make it so but I'm under no illusions that getting this country back is going to be either quick or easy.  Electing Trump as president for a couple of terms and expecting that to do the trick is a delusion!

Where do we go from here and how do we help to move this country forward?  Clearly the threat of socialism is real and the corruption of the left is overwhelming.

President Trump is 72 years old and not a young man by any means.  I'm not so sure that he will run for re-election or God forbid, age may simply make that determination for him and there are very few GOP who I believe are qualified to continue to lead conservatives in a positive direction.

1. Stop letting the elites tell us who we are allowed to have as our representatives. That means that in most cases you cannot vote for the guy who can run the most and slickest ads in primary races. there is a reason those people have that kind of money most of the time and it isn't because they are o our side!

2. Call out the lies, regardless of who speaks them, loudly and often!

3. Educate yourself as to what the truth really is on as much as you can and you can bet that what the MSM is selling ain't it!

4. Be an activist!  Talk to your family, friends, and neighbors.

   He's taken shortcuts his whole life.  He could easily convince himself that POTUS 4 years, rather than 8, is the pinnacle of his desires and acceptable to his oversized EGO.

   HOPE can be a good thing, it staves off desperation.

It's a step (pardon cliche pun) in the right direction.   After eight years of the gay Marxist closet Muslim.... Trump is what was needed to pull their masks off and to force them to expose their true ugly nature and selves.  I see that now.  Nothing in life worth having is ever 'easy'.  You have to work for it ....live for it... and sometimes die for it.

Getting involved is great, but have you ever looked at a Republican town hall?  Almost everyone has white hair.  Go on social media and you find out that kids in high school and college have not only been taught wrong—they’re deluded to a massive degree.  You can’t talk sense to them—they erupt into rage.  One of them told me it’s proven fact that capitalism kills 20 million people a year.  And they despise white people, white history, etc.  Including the white kids themselves.

They’re the same with Christianity, and their hate is open.  But they get starry-eyed about any and all fake religious legends, myths, cults, whatever.  Occultism is huge now.  And what about killing babies after they’re born—that’s out in the open now.  Anybody hear of Canaan?  You can find any number of kids on social media who openly say they hate babies.

Another bizarre thing?  Hatred of straight people and fetishization of gays.  I like The Walking Dead, but venturing onto a fan site means wading through the certainty that all of the characters are gay, along with drawings of male characters having sex.  For some reason I can’t figure, a lot of straight females prefer to see gay relationships over men and women.  This is not isolated—it’s epidemic.


Imo, this is more than politics.  It’s spiritual.  Personally I believe the world has to slide in the current direction for things to come out the way they’re supposed to in the end.  I think it’s useless to believe we can get back to some kind of sunny, moral period because Trump was elected.  We’re beyond that now.  He’s a stopgap politically, but not at all culturally. 
I say this to Beto fans, Trump fans, all fans of politicians: it is un-American, ridiculous, and dangerous to be a fan of a politician. They aren't pop stars. Support them if you agree with their policies. Criticize them when they go wrong. They are servants, not celebrities. —— Matt Walsh

You're right @QueenCatofAragon.  I knew when 0bama was elected the first time that we would survive and come out on the other side of his presidency but that we would be irrevocably changed.  "Transformed" if you will.

What we ought to be doing now is demanding our legislators pass personal property protections, because life is going to become increasingly difficult and retirement isn't going to be possible for many and grim for the rest of us who have worked all of our lives.  The majority of the electorate is now scared, dependent, non-thinking and envious of others' possessions.  And, we know how they are going to vote.  We need to start dealing with it.

Actually, the turning point was in 1964 when LBJ was elected instead of Goldwater. Obama just did some cleanup work.

That’s a good point.  It dovetails with something weird that happened a couple of weeks ago here.  My husband and I dreamed—on the same night—that the government came to take away our house and property.

I’m hoping it was just the tacos.
