Will There Ever Be Calm?
I realized years ago that president Donald Trump doesn’t do well with calm seas. If things are running smoothly and the problems are run of the mill, the guy panics. He needs upheaval. he needs disruption.
If it isn’t there, he causes it. Saying something stupid, forces a change in policy mid policy. He does what he can to just change the status quo.
That is not necessarily a bad thing.
Things in this country, as far as the operation of the government, have been horrible for way to long.
I doubt there is anyone out there with a modicum of intelligence that thinks that the Federal Government is functioning at anywhere near peak efficiency. It’s not. It never has been and no matter what Elon Musk tried to do, probably never will be. It is too big, too unwieldy. That is not because of you or I, it is because of the people we have elected to represent us over the decades.
Donald Trump has thrown so many things out there it is actually next to impossible to keep track of.
The disruption, it is what he lives for. Unfortunately that disruption has made it next to impossible to try and figure out if we have actually moved forward as a country.
You can’t rely on any sort of media because there is their truth and the real truth, whatever that may be.
I thought when Donald Trump was reelected we would start having some sort of intelligent discourse between opposing viewpoints but what I have seen more and more is conservative media and conservatives in general just basically blasting any opinion that opposes what Donald Trump believes.
My biggest complaint about Democrats and the Liberals that seemed to have popped up like Fungi is that it was their way or the hiway. They did not bother to listen to opposing viewpoints.
The Republican Conservatives have grabbed that torch and have run off with it.
Hearing a Conservative person I know saying that I am stupid because I may disagree with some of Trump’s policies and that I think he is a huge blowhard. I am stupid? Hmm, that’s having an open mind? Eff off. How about those Pacers?
I still try and maintain some objectivity regarding the current political and economic environment. Do I lean into Trump’s corner, yes I do.
But why you may ask? You put him down, constantly.
Well, it’s simple. He is getting things moving, whatever it is. Inaction leads to hardening of the stool so to speak. This guy will never have a blockage. He moves stuff along.
Ok, not all of it is well thought out. A lot of it may end up being more damaging than what came before but you never know what things might look like if you don’t make an effort to change things.
He is an agent of change.
The other thing that I continue to find completely disturbing is what actually went on in the White House during Biden’s term. How could the Democratic leadership know as much as they did and fail to do anything about it? Maybe we need to resurrect Senator Joe McCarthy and have him ask some tough questions. I hope this does go somewhere because I think the Democrats should be held accountable for what might be the biggest scam in US History.
The media won’t cover it.
The last thing I want to go over is the most disturbing thing I have heard recently. What is that you may ask? Well, I heard on the radio that Chuck Schumer may not run for reelection. Good news and bad news. That Alexandria Ocasio Cortex might run for his seat. I am no fan of Schumer, he is a politicians politician, talks out of both sides of his mouth and doesn’t mean anything he says, from either side. However AOC is not the answer. She is a huge drop off in intelligence. In perspective and in her beliefs. I have zero respect for her and her constituents who keep reelecting her. If she gets elected to the Senate, it will prove that New York State has not moved enough to the right even though the Republican party keeps saying that they are making huge strides in the state.
