and how long did that romantic illusion last?
to give me a moment of hope that we might just win this battle for our Country before the streets are torn apart in gunfire and killing, inspired by the persistent hatred that pervades our society today. Egged on by those in power that wish to see this escalate into a new ‘norm’ in America and pushed in the media.
The Swamp’s best weapon is to fire up the hatred between political parties and American’s citizens. Hate is thier most powerful weapon.
There is a simple answer if a few ‘good men’ dare take on the task. A strong Justice Dept that will begin prosecuting those who have deceived and broken laws already on the books. If DOJ looked as hard into the Clintonista Cabal, and its illegal activities, as hard as they chase the Trump/Russian/Collusion story, some folks would be headed to prison and the restoration of our Country on a path to healing. Now that is probably a true romantic illusion, I admit. But the alternative is a nightmare that none of us wish to have.
Do not take my sense of hope for weakness. I have seen enough of ‘war’ to last a lifetime and in the current situation of our country it can easily be avoided, or at least mostly so, if more folks would support the ideals and efforts of Trump to Drain The Swamp. Some would rather chose the path of hate to destroy. So far, that team is ahead on the scoreboard.
I noticed Ted Nugent announced yesterday that he would walk back his own brand of hostility towards the Dems and Media. I took his announcement not as a sign of weakness, nor surrending his strong ideals of American Values. But he did at times go a little overboard with this guts and blood speeches. I admire him greatly for his effort to drop the BS, and hope some on the other side will have the brains and courage to do the same.
Instead of listening to those promoting all the ‘resistence’, which has translated into bloody violence, perhaps they all need to take a deep breath, step away from the TV, and think through where all this is headed. It is very disturbing to me that CNN and Maddow on NBC are seeing greatly increased ratings for their shows promoting the hatred and violence. America is at the crossroads, at least as far as our children and grandchildren are concerned.
