The Long Way to America's Greatness
After all our struggles to restore America…we cannot, must not, and will not turn. We will finish our job. How could we do less? We're Americans. ~Ronald Reagan
We tend to stick to our little bubbles, surrounding ourselves with people with the same beliefs and values. As a conservative woman, I can spot a brainwashed liberal woman from a mile away. Not to be mean, but they tend to have a look about them. The ugly they carry on the inside seems to radiate on the outside. I’m always taken back when someone talks to me in that “I believe this way, so you must surely believe this way also” tone of voice. As a former Chicagoan, I’m not the type to politely smile and nod my head. It’s important that I quickly make it clear that our views are NOT the same and we should probably change the subject.
The chances that anyone reading this has similar beliefs to mine are pretty good. I’m a die-hard Trump fan and was a Trump fan before he ever announced he was running for President. Episodes of The Apprentice provided a pretty good overview of the type of leader he is, although now I see they only scratched the surface. (Side note: The Apprentice is streaming on Amazon Prime if you’re interested). When someone says something anti-Trump to me, it feels like an attack on a member of my family. My loyalty is deep. I remember what life in America was like before the Marxists took over, and President Trump is the only person working to get us back there. If people are too ignorant, busy, or flat out stupid to see what he’s trying to accomplish, I can’t take them seriously. My days of reasoning with people or trying to help them “wake up” are over. I’m tired. If people haven’t caught on by now, I’m losing faith that they ever will.
My husband went to lunch with a friend the other day. While there, they were joined by a guy who he described as an anti-Trumper. My husband is nicer than I am, so he listened to the guy ramble on with his ignorant perception of President Trump’s agenda. People like him are impossible to have an intelligent conversation with. So deep in their brainwashing, it’s impossible to get them to imagine a different reality.
One of the key topics the guy focused on was his belief that President Trump is hiring all of his “rich friends” so they can all “get richer.” It would be a waste of energy to point out that he may be wrong. In his mind, the Democrats would never lie, and they’re the ones on television saying that President Trump is slashing Medicaid in order to line his billionaire friends’ pockets. Never mind the fact that Nancy Pelosi has been a public servant for over 38 years, with an estimated worth of $230 million. The brainwashed will defend her by telling you that she’s a smart investor or that she’s married to a successful man. They don’t want to hear explanations that President Trump became a billionaire on his own. Not only has he not gotten rich off of the back of the American tax payer, he’s also donating his salary and refusing the lifetime pension that is extended to all Presidents. They don’t want to hear it. They’re so brainwashed that anything other than the media driven story will be shut down immediately. They’ll ignorantly argue with you and change the topic to Trump’s greedy billionaire friend, Elon Musk.
That billionaire friend that liberals used to love is considered a “special government employee” who doesn’t receive a salary, but that doesn’t matter to them. To the brainwashed, Trump and Musk are billionaires who don’t need a salary so they should donate their time and energy, as if it’s owed to us. How many government officials have become millionaires while serving as public servants? Have any of them chosen to forego their salary for the sake of America?
The brainwashed argue that Elon Musk is getting richer because of his relationship with President Trump. Where they come up with that logic, I’m not sure. It’s probably more the opposite. Since his involvement with DOGE, Elon’s company, Tesla, has suffered. “It's a combination of competition eating Tesla's lunch with similar or better range, as well as disgust with Elon Musk, his unwielding support for Donald Trump. And many of Tesla's historical customers have been, you know, far-left-leaning liberals. That's turned a lot of people off.” Some celebrities are so turned off by the fact that Elon Musk is uncovering billions of dollars in government waste that they’re trading in their Tesla’s. The brainwashed celebrate these morons as if uncovering government waste is a bad thing. When that government waste is given back to the people, the brainwashed shouldn’t be entitled to receive any of it.
It's not just celebrities who are trying to destroy Tesla, an American company. Senator Mark Kelly made a production of trading in his Tesla for a Chevy Tahoe. Just like that, SUV’s aren’t bad for the environment anymore. Kelly said, “Every time I get in this car in the last 60 days or so, it reminds me of just how much damage Elon Musk and Donald Trump is doing to our country.” Is it damage to the country, or damage to his personal wealth? Senator Mark Kelly is one of the wealthiest members of Congress. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who will never be Vice-President, bragged about Tesla stock losing value. An American governor celebrating the loss of value of an American company should not be tolerated. Why is it?
Luckily, the years of being a liberal didn’t fry Elon’s brain and he has a Conservative’s sense of humor:
In addition to the loss of Tesla stock value, there’s been a recent rash of RESIST idiots vandalizing Tesla dealerships. It’s not just harmless graffiti vandalism. These idiots are firing guns into dealerships and starting them on fire. There’s nothing like potentially killing an innocent employee to really stick it to The Man. The argument that President Trump is making his friends richer isn’t backed by anything other than ignorant stupidity.
We are still a very divided nation. We won’t always agree on everything, I know, but the number of people who don’t see that President Trump is working to make our country better for all of us is still too high. Until people understand that it is us (Americans) against them (Globalists), I don’t know how we move forward. One Executive Order at a time isn’t going to cut it. We have enough problems outside of our borders without worrying about the problems within them. We are still dealing with Marxist-inspired evil.
In Deerfield, Illinois, a parent addressed the School Board to complain about a male student in the girls’ locker room changing for gym class. When the female students complained, school officials reprimanded them and forced them back into the locker room to change in front of the boy. A school administrator told the female students that the male student could use the girls’ locker room as long as he identifies as a female. Illinois Democrat, Bob Morgan, addressed the incident at the Illinois General Assembly saying it was a lie. “Believe all women” only works when it fits their agenda. It’s hard to believe this is a topic of conversation. It’s not okay. Why are we still allowing the mentally depraved minority dictate the rules to the majority? We can’t stop this as long as we are a divided nation. When people hate President Trump more than they hate the exploitation of young female students, we have a serious problem.
A hospital in New Jersey is reportedly distributing, “Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Questionnaire’s” to new parents, requiring them to assign an identity to their child after birth. Any parent who feels comfortable “assigning” sexual orientation and gender to their newborn should not be permitted to reproduce. Luckily, the backlash is promising but the fact that the hospital felt comfortable doing something like this is concerning. We’re suffering from a serious lack of common sense and we’re not going to correct it and heal our country as long as we continue to allow this divide. It needs to be addressed on a massive scale. Not one instance at a time.
Our corrupt judicial system is finally in the spotlight, but many of us have been victims of it for years. The brainwashed don’t see a problem with it because it usually goes in their favor. How long do we need to wait before the majority are educated on our corrupt courts? After the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 Executive Order was signed, a Federal Judge ordered airplanes containing deported illegal immigrants to turn around and return to the United States. ABC News reported that President Trump “made a calculated decision to ignore a judge’s directive.” Imagine that. The President of the United States once again being overruled by a Federal Judge. “Federal courts generally have no jurisdiction over the President’s conduct of foreign affairs, his authorities under the Alien Enemies Act, and his core Article II powers to remove foreign alien terrorists from U.S. soil and repel a declared invasion,” said Karoline Leavitt. How many of the brainwashed know this? How many listen to the Daily Press Briefing? We are in trouble when Americans believe that a judge has more power than the President of the United States. When are we going to put an end to this?
On March 20th, President Trump signed an Executive Order ordering the end of the Department of Education. This decision should be applauded, but instead the brainwashed are melting down over it. When I was younger, I imagined my mother was just dropped down out of the sky as a 40-year-old mother. It never occurred to me that she was once a child, a teenager, a young adult. She was always just a mom. I wonder how many people think the same thing about the Department of Education. That it was always just there. I was surprised to learn that the DOE wasn’t brought into existence until the late 1970s. When I heard that, everything became clear. Those of us who began our education prior to the existence of the Department of Education didn’t receive the indoctrinated Marxist teaching that later generations received. Patrick Gunnels read a piece by Erik Carlson titled, “Is Generation X Saving America?” It was one of my favorite’s so far this year because it brought me back to my childhood and an America that I believe was more united than we are today. I want those days back. Thank God President Trump came along when he did, while those of us who remember that version of America are still here and willing to fight (peacefully) for a return to those values. How do we get there?
My husband and I are empty nesters. He’s retired; I’m still working. Between getting ready in the morning, driving to and from work, spending 8 hours plus a mandatory 1 hour unpaid lunch, I devote 12 hours a day to my job. I sleep 8 hours. That leaves me 4 hours a day to do what I need to do. Because my husband is retired, he’s taken on a great deal of household duties. We no longer have children at home. Two-income families who each devote 12 hours a day to their jobs with young children at home don’t have the time to research what is happening in our government. We call them “normies,” when in reality, they don’t have the time or energy to understand the meaning of each Executive Order as it is added to the Federal Register. We scoff and judge them for listening to “the news.” Who is breaking through the barrier of their busy lives trying to make ends meet to tell them that the truth is being withheld from them? While they’re helping with homework, making dinner, and packing lunches for the next day, ABC or Fox News is on in the background lying to them.
In my opinion, the division in our country began during the Clinton years, and ramped up during the Obama years. Why are we still dealing with it? When I was younger, I didn’t know who was a Republican or a Democrat, and I didn’t care. People could agree to disagree. How do we move forward into the Golden Age of America when a large portion of the population still wants to burn it down? How do we get everyone on the same page? Is anyone else as tired of the division as I am? Those of us who started waking up when we were given little drops of disclosure in the fall of 2017 have been waiting so long for the rest of the crowd to get on board that we’re exhausted and burnt out. Nevertheless, we persist.
Things have gotten better for us. It’s taken a long time but we’ve slowly found our voice, pushed back on the Marxist ideals that were suffocating us, and found hope in the small victories. The brainwashed liberals don’t see life in America as better. They’re convinced President Trump is planning a coup to become a dictator, eliminating elections and ruling over America in perpetuity. The media encourages them to believe it. The ‘elected’ Democrats add fuel to the fire. When will the truth come out? How much longer do we wait for the media to be held accountable? When will the brainwashed finally be told that President Trump is working to return our country to the America it was founded on? Not the America that their Marxist teachers brainwashed them into believing was evil, but the America that really was once great. How much longer until America is great again, for all Americans?
Great article Billie. Keep doing what you are doing!
You could not be more right about young parents especially having little or no time to thoroughly research what is going on. They are clueless beyond the school. Barely time for local government, often not plugged in at church, competing for worthless dopamine hits in the form of social media feedback and how to have a birthday party that keeps up with the Jones’. I still maintain we need something drastic here to get people to snap out of it…
