Attitudes

Attitudes win or lose wars as Germany found in WWI. An orchestrated effort to demoralize the troops by Communist agents was effective and turned the tide of the war. This country is divided but the majority are still the people who believe in the foundational principles of this great nation. However, this majority is also divided and many vocally demoralize our side and our future.

During the 2020 election cycle, I was talking with a relative by marriage concerning Trump’s rallies and told him that I wanted to attend one. He was incredulous and asked why? He was not expecting my answer. I told him that I enjoyed watching tens of thousands of people who were happy and smiling. When was the last time you were around even a small number of people who were smiling?

That does not mean hope is an effective strategy in times of war; especially in a civil war. We can still live our lives and fight for our children. We cannot let pessimism rule and ruin our lives and our future. This glimmer of hope that we now see can increase to allow a rebirth and revival if we do not extinguish it ourselves.

Many comments on this site reflect pessimism and fail to see the possibilities of a Renaissance. Perception can become reality and we need to sit down and decide if we want to grow or wither on the vine.

I know that the Deep State will try everything to stop the new administration from being effective including nuclear annihilation. Isn’t that what evil does? I want people to consider some points:

1. Donald Trump has built a solid team of professional people to work in the new administration. I doubt anyone could argue against this statement. But, “what about this appointment” has become a standard refrain. Gaetz was first but there are others and there will be missteps due to the number of people involved in setting up the top tier of officials. Other people are saying that Trump MUST do “this” on day one or he will have their support. Strange how people who did not even vote are making demands for their support.
2. Donald Trump is not taking money from the GSA to fund his transition. This shows how much he learned from a security aspect.
3. Robert F. Kennedy Jr’s. position in the government cannot be understated. Healthcare and our food supply will be restored. I doubt people have realized how important these changes will be or how fast they will be implemented. I hope that the people in Big Pharma and Big Ag will be brought to justice as part of his work.
4. Elon Musk’s position in the government will be just as important. Reaching for the stars gives us hope in a better future. Whether it is AI, Neuralink, electric cars and trucks, energy storage, the Boring Company, SpaceX or DOGE, he will be the key in this Renaissance.
5. A coordinated effort between the DOJ and three letter agencies can restore our justice system and hopefully hold traitors accountable for their destruction of our Republic.
6. The end of the Department of Education.
7. The end of regulations imposed be the now rescinded Chevron decision.
8. The results of deporting illegal aliens and securing the borders.
9. Imposing tariffs and reducing the federal income tax.
10. Making our federal elections secure using voter ID.

Will all of this come to pass? I hope so. And I hope that having a positive attitude after 24 years of negativity, wars and corruption is warranted. I want to smile again and feel safe. But I am a realist: we are not out of the woods by any measure. Evil will not go quietly into the night and evil must be held accountable for the death of our people and destruction of our culture and country. I will fight to restore Liberty and my goal has not changed: we owe it to our children to give them a better country.

I want to be happy and smile again and imagine if more of us start to smile. And I absolutely know that the Lord wants us to live in His light instead of promoting darkness.
