If only the good people of this great country could somehow be awakened or enlightened to see “beyond” the extremely, biased mainstream media...
I would like to think it’s happening slowly but I fear their minds are too closed and they feel the need to follow their party (democrat) right over the cliff.
So sad and disheartening that our country has become so divided over politics.
Whoever thought that the USA might EVER be on a path toward the sickening, idea of socialism.
I would never have thought this in a million years, yet here it is staring us in the face with the prospect of a few blue elections being won.
I would be so grateful to see America the way it was before...where our government debated issues and got common sense laws passed that took compromises from both sides and followed the will of the people.
What do we have? Oppose, resist, block, threaten, protest, riot, calls for violence and disruption of lives...etc., ad nauseum...not to mention the deep state and the loss of respect and trust for the institutions which were once the backbone of law, order and justice.
God help us.

Default The issue that divides us

For those of you who do not think Trump is intelligent, he quite accurately identified the primary issue that divides liberals (including democrats) and conservatives (including republicans). In speaking at the UN, Trump stated that "We will never surrender American sovereignty to an unelected, unaccountable global bureaucracy. America is governed by Americans," he said. "We reject the ideology of globalism, and we embrace the doctrine of patriotism." This is why I'm against globalist ideas like climate change, open borders, universal healthcare, $15 minimum wage, higher taxes, bigger government bureaucracies, etc. Our core value is liberty (patriotism), which isn't necessarily shared by our globalist friends in Europe. A bigger government equals less liberty.

His speech today at the UN was AWESOME!!!!! Probably his best speech yet, and quite possibly one of the best speeches of any US President in history!! (Top 5, anyways!!) I love this guy!! He is absolutely just what the country needed at this time in history!!!!! "The Lord works in mysterious ways..." (If that offends you, to bad, I don't care!!)
