Do Not Despair -- these times are a blessing!
BEJ

Posted on 01/15/2021 8:57:42 AM PST by BEJ

All the bad news is actually a Blessing. For fear of sounding perverse please consider these points. The bad news of Trump not having a second term, the Republicans betraying Trump, the government institutions like the DOJ, FBI, State Courts and Supreme Court betraying Trump and the American people, the degree and scale of corruption by the Democrats to brazenly steal a national election, the media blackout and censoring, and on and on... is a blessing.

Why?

Because it allows you to see reality clearly and once you know that, you can move forward. Moving forward means understanding and learning from the past. It means learning not just about the things that are against you and stop you, but the forces that are for you and that you need to move forward. Trump sees the vast numbers of Americans that are on his side. He sees the need to have an independent media. He sees the treachery and fickleness of the Republicans and not to rely on them. This can mean starting a new party -- remember Trump is a builder. Even if Trump had a second term how long would it take before the feckless Republicans betray him? It is a relief to be free of them.

So, seeing reality allows one to move forward. Though reality can be harsh it is also a blessing because you can see the truth and make rational calculations knowing both the obstacles and the things that work to your advantage. This was not really a failure, but it is a big opportunity for Trump and the American people to move forward.

The majority are not seeing the truth. They are buying CNN and Twitter and FB “news”. They think everything is hunky dory with Trump supporters getting in the way of a Biden/Harris utopia.

Its a little late to be seeing reality. The other reality is that now democrats hold absolutely 100% of the levers of power.

We don’t get, do we? No matter who runs against whom from now on, from dog catcher up to president, absolutely no one will be able to rise above hundreds, thousands, and millions of preprinted ballots. There’s no reason anymore for any conservatives to ever vote in any election anymore.
1. Supreme Court doesn’t give a $hit about fraud

2. Millions of illegal aliens will flood our country and vote Democratic

3. Hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens will pour across our borders as soon as Sleepy Joe takes office and be given instant citizenship.

4. Sleepy Joe will move the illegal aliens into your neighborhood, especially red neighborhoods and states, and change the voting results anyway.

There really isn’t any reason for any true American to vote in anything anymore . . Just shut up and pay your taxes.

They hold that power for only so long as it is not challenged and Trump can challenge them with the majority of people on his side.

The good news is that the Dems are even better at f-ing up a wet dream than the Republicans are.

That’s why Trump needs his own media. He has to be independent of the media that threatens to ban him.

See, the Beatles and Netflix did us no bit of good! Made us comfortably weak and indifferent.

Now is a good time to read the old testament account of Joshua’s forces taking on the city of Ai. They had high confidence moving in but they got decimated.

They asked God why He did not bless their efforts. God said it was because someone took loot from a previous raid. Eventually the looter was found and punished severely.

The Israelites then went on a second siege of Ai, splitting their forces. The citizens of the city practically laughed in the faces of these invaders, the Israelites started to retreat and the whole town joined in on the upcoming anticipated slaughter.

A few stragglers that had hid in the bushes then started big bonfires, so when the citizens of Ai looked back, they thought their town was being burned. They fearfully turned around and were caught out in the open, surrounded by hardened soldiers who wouldn’t let them back in and the bulk of the Israelite army coming to crush them from behind.

God used the defeat to draw out the whole town where it became easy pickins.

Until the Mexican invasion followed by the Chinese air force (if they can see where they're going up there with your head so high in the clouds).

There is no pony in this pasture. Quit expecting one, it just plays into their hands.

You’re right, but only until a new party is created. And the new party has to ensure election security. Otherwise, as you say, they want you to shut up and pay your taxes.

But I think it can be done if pressure is applied. But it would take a lot of organization and skill and if people are dissatisfied with the Republican party they will switch over join in the cause.

“...Trump can challenge them with the majority of people on his side...”

Unless somehow the voting process is changed to be fair and honest, it doesn’t matter how many people are on your side...The people don’t count...It’s the number of votes, whether legal or illegal, that count...

It’s about seeing the future from knowing the past. I think there is potential for the cup to runneth over in time. Small beginnings as in 75 million people small.

In two years when we vote again those who refuse to vote for the Republicans in the Senate will get more Democrats elected.

Maybe you feel the Republicans are not conservative enough or have a beef with them but the truth is the Democrats you allow in will definitely not be conservative.

In life, there is no “failure”. The two options are either “winning” (success) or a learning experience.

If you neither win nor learn, then the Darwinian principle kicks in, and self-elimination from the pool proceeds ruthlessly and with no hint of mercy. The world at large then scores a win.

The Universe is a cruel taskmaster.

Good story! Gives hope. Get rid of the bad blood looters (RINOs). You can’t build on a foundation on sand, as well.

Good taskmaster analogy! Reality is a bitch and if you don’t understand it it will slap you down every time.

1) In-Person, with ID voting only
2) Counting cannot start until voting has stopped, and all ballots are secured.
3) Counting cannot stop until all ballots are counted. Once counting stops, the final tally is the official tally.
4) Counting only in the presence of representatives of all candidates.
