Short Takes – A Divided America, What’s the Cure?

Opinion

America has long been divided by two contending political philosophies, one created in the firm belief in the god given rights of man through self determination and possession of private property, among others, the inalienable anchors of representative freedoms. The other, a scheme that clings to the Marxist inspired idea that people would be happier when embraced by the comforting arms of a collectivist, benevolent government, in the guise of the Democrat Party.

Into the midst of this conflict of ideas, stepped the most totally corrupt entity to ever enter American politics, the Clintons, man and wife, neither Marxists or Constitutionalists but criminals singularly dedicated to exploiting political divisions for their own self-aggrandizement. Their vehicle to wealth accumulation, power and corruption was through America’s political process.  

America’s ill’s will never ever heal until Americans are assured at last, that the entire apparatus of the Clinton’s odious pay to play, personal wealth grabbing, political corrupting, self aggrandizing, treasonous machine is dismantled and she, her husband and all their acolytes stand in the dock to account for their crimes. Only then, will we know the cure has started.

The political struggle has been going on for decades with Socialist-Marxism in the ascendency, until Donald Trump. Trump hasn’t been scheming for years to be President, but is a total newcomer to the governing process because he had finally arrived at his own breaking point. Trump saw that Americas conversion into Socialism was near total and irrevocable. It was his trigger to believe the instauration of American politics was required and he could do it.

So, what does it mean to be a Republican then? Until Trump, absolutely nothing! Republicans, long wanderers in the political wilderness, bought into the socialists agenda for so long that capitulation was considered the norm. No debate, no arguments, just go the Democrats way. The word “bipartisanship” camouflages the exploitative nature of conflicting powers allegedly governing together. Republicans constantly fumbled aways their voters desires to keep America great. They were enjoying their “bipartisanship” and the rewards that came with it. Their greatest trick, as the cliche goes: was their ability to “snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.“ Until Trump!

Trump’s not a Republican and definitely not a Marxist but he’s a wealth creating businessman, a capitalist who convinced us he had the skills to Make America Great Again. He knows how to negotiate and the problems left us from eight years of Obama’s amateurish leadership, his inherent weaknesses and policies of appeasement, is being challenged face on and renegotiated to the screams and laminations of the spavined Democrat party.

Trump came as a champion. Americans, awakened by the Leftist threat, but lacking leadership and not knowing how to confront it, organized into ’quaint’ political groups, were quickly derided by the media and Deep State practitioners of elitism. The result, victory of conservatism in three successive national elections pushing the Democrat party into near oblivion.

The Republicans are starting to do what we have long wanted and what Trump is pushing them to do: expect political success in the face of tough resistance. Lacking an effective strategy for defeating the Democrats, without being pushed from behind, is slowing the process. Americans are resilient, slow to anger but fierce when pushed. The Democrats plotting against Americans in favor of illegals proves they are morally bankrupt and lack any vision to see America as Americans want it. The changes will be painful but in the end, America will be great again.

Remember, Freedom is thew goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get ‘em!

    It amazes me how political corruption only has validity when it concerns a Democrat. When a corrupt Republican raises his/her ugly head the only response is “…hey, what about this Democrat 20 years ago?” The Democrat who left office with a balanced budget and surpluses!

    Then we had a Republican in the WH who thought nothing of cutting taxes again and instituting new programs or ventures (a war and a prescription drug benefit) with no source for funding. He also oversaw – or better yet, did nothing to stop or remedy – the biggest economic collapse since the Great Depression. This lead us to an unbalanced budget and evaporating surpluses and increased deficits. But it was done under a Republican administration, so it’s okay!

    When a Democrat came back into power the Republicans somehow reclaimed their miserliness and sounded the alarm about out of control spending. Eight years of Republican out of control spending seemed to vanish right under their noses, only now noticing that hey, something is different here. Republicans are now demonstrating that they regard both deficits and graft as vices to be enjoyed during periods of GOP rule with Trump leading the way to personal enrichment.

    Since taking office Trump has embarked on a personal journey of bribe seeking, self-enrichment and trading off the presidency never before seen in American politics. Escaping rebuke entirely due to a GOP lead Congress pretending that none of it really matters. Yet a Democrat need only provide an economic benefit to a rival Congressman’s district in exchange for compromise on legislation, something unfortunately done on a regular basis by both parties, and it is labeled with the dreaded “Gate” suffix, as in Watergate; another Republican corruption scandal.

    The pathologically self-destructive Trump is inclined to a return to the good old days of the Republican party when graft was king and personal gain was the basis of all policy. Economic prosperity only serves as a mask to corruption and self-enrichment, which will ultimately lead to the failure of the Republican party.
