Reflections on the Election

Tweet

It's finally "time to turn the page" (as Kamala likes to say) on the last 4 years. Trump gets a 2nd chance in the Oval Office, to right many of the wrongs the HARRIS/BIDEN ADMINISTRATION perpetuated upon the American people. President Trump definitely has his work cut out for him with illegal immigration, higher prices on goods/services, woke ideology, transgenders in woman's sports, rising crime, media censorship, and a Mideast and Ukraine conflict. Unfortunately, the leftist media has not learned its lesson from 4 years ago. As the results came in, before Trump had even taken office, one MSNBC host went on a rampage crying racism, and sexism as reasons for Harris losing. They also claimed Trump would govern as an authoritarian president, code speak for a dictator (Hitler). I'm sure White Supremist and Fascist will follow. Words which will not help heal a divided country. Fun fact: Did you know Donald Trump became only the second president in history to have been elected to 2 non-consecutive terms. Grover Cleveland won the presidency in 1884, then lost 4 years later, but was re-elected again in 1894. ***Here are some things I observed along with my own views about the mainstream and social media's reactions to the presidential election: 1. Rachel Maddow made a pre-election comment saying when we win Elon Musk's Twitter (X) should be shut down (probably for Elon supporting Trump). That's censorship, a threat to Democracy (free speech), an issue the liberals always claim Republican leaders advocate for. 2. The NY Empire State building said it would light up blue or red for each swing state the candidate won. People took to social media when it lit red for Trump criticizing the building for celebrating the end of Democracy, really? 3. I was saddened to see so many misguided, misinformed, hysterical young voters on social media crying tears over their candidate losing. They just don't realize how dangerously close we came to losing our identity as a country. Oh well, I guess with age comes wisdom. 4. I give Kudos to Morning Joe on MSNBC (no friend of Trump) who reported the day after the election without bias. Joe shockingly called the victory a Republican sweep across the nation and Trump's win as historic as Ronald Reagan's. 5. I think America just had enough of the crazy radical policies: woke, trans, lies, border, immigration, crime, and the economy over the last 4 years of the Biden/Harris presidency. 6. My opinion is even though you hear some pundits accepting the election verdict, I expect civil disobedience on the left will continue egged on by the mainstream media. Protests against the Federal Government (which has no say) on topics like abortion rights, (the state's constituents now vote on abortion laws democratically) will be a major focus. Hopefully, any demonstrations will not result in death and violence like the George Floyd "summer of love" protests. 7. You will always find a section of society who are ignorant and uninformed people. I noticed on the day after TV shows some would divide the country over race and gender and use it as an excuse when things did not go their way. If we truly are a democracy, then TV hosts need to accept the resounding decision of the majority of election voters. Playing the race card is counterproductive and keeps our country looking backward instead of forward. One should figure out why so many voters rejected their candidate rather than making such a racist generalization. In closing here is one positive thing that came out of the presidential election for Trump (TDS) haters. After 4 years Trump will be done and can finally fade away into the sunset. There will be no dictatorship, a president can only serve 2 terms. So, give Trump a chance, as he has often said, what have you got to lose. If he fails, there is another election in four years. How's that for a democracy, oops I mean a "Constitutional Republic." Photo- You Tube Trump
