A Change has Come
American Thinker ^ | 8 Nov, 2024 | Mark Landsbaum

Posted on 11/08/2024 4:05:21 AM PST by MtnClimber

Despite all those elitist voices demanding we fall in lock step with the long march to woke-Marxist utopia, what prevailed decisively was Common Sense, rooted in good old-fashioned conservative Christian values.

I unashamedly confess to never being prouder -- or more surprised -- than I was Tuesday when voters overwhelmingly rejected four more soul-deadening years of evil.

I had all but given up on the grand American experiment in self-governance. But today, I am prouder than ever of its people, who unmistakably chose good over evil at the ballot box.

Before expounding further, however, I must warn against resting on our laurels. The same people who despise Donald Trump, who employed every devious means to destroy him, who even tried to kill him, are still with us. And, if anything, their rage is greater now. On Election Day America won perhaps its greatest battle since Midway. But the battle won, the war continues.

Nevertheless, I actually feel the pain of the leftists and the woke and the Marxist fellow travelers, who today agonize over the election results. As vote-counting began, I too was in the depths of depression, resigned to Kamala Harris defeating Donald Trump and all the horrors that were sure to follow.

It was excruciating, but I figured a holy God certainly must have had enough of our land, where 70 million babies have been murdered in the womb, where sexual depravity has been elevated to a faux constitutional right, where Marxist ideology has supplanted Christian morality. Where despotic tyrants run the government, oblivious to the true human rights they trample. Who am I to dispute God’s judgment against such evil?

God surely had seen enough, I grudgingly told myself. I braced for His judgment to arrive in the form of a Democratic Party landslide.

Those who plotted to have Trump killed are still out there. The battle WAS won, but the war will never end. The eternal war between good and evil.

It is instructive to note that those who object to common sense and insist on wokeness are education-by-government types.

Educate the students that the majority of people in America is of European origin, and that Europeans and Americans are the reason slavery is outlawed over most of the planet. that we have laws that are written down at not at the whim of a king. That judges decisions can be appealed. that you can own land, business, and your home. That money is good ( most of the time). The NEA has decided that they want a lifetime employment bureaucracy instead of a quality of teaching that relates to continuation of the values developed over time and paid for in blood. Stepping off of soapbox now ( another European value, freedom of speech}

I’m so proud of the tens of thousands of blacks and Hispanics in our urban underclass who - when approached by these scumbag Democrat recruiters and offered pocket change to traffic counterfeit ballots - said “Nah. Not this time. Go f yourself… I’m for Trump!”

The profound message of the 2024 Presidential Election is this:

The American People recognize in President Trump the magnificent virtues with which he is endowed, which he offers to the service of America and her People, and which are the virtues that created the United States:

Strength, courage, intelligence, stamina, perseverance, wisdom, heroism, greatness, a profound belief in God and trust in Him. The virtues that created the Greatest Nation the World Has Ever Known and that have allowed it to prevail for so long.

These are the virtues that enabled American boys--most of them less than 21 years old--to walk directly into machine-gun fire on the beaches of Normandy, to storm the beaches of Guadalcanal, and to raise the American Flag on Iwo Jima to rid the world of the nightmares of nazi Germany and Imperial Japan.

The 2024 Presidential Election was an Annunciation that these virtues are alive, well, and thriving in the American People--that we can and will do it all again if we must--that the American People are prepared to storm beaches, raise flags, make whatever sacrifices are necessary for Good to Triumph over evil--that the USA is today a nation guided by God.

That's what the re-election of President Trump means.

When the American People watched President Trump prevail over all the attacks, injustices, onslaughts leveled against him--and even when faced with death at an assassin's bullet shout to the American People to fight, calling on their goodness and virtues and fighting spirit even as his life was threatened--they recognized his greatness in themselves.

This is leadership! Greatness! Heroism! And the American People recognized it.

All wise people in the world will take this to heart and will realize its profound significance.

People voting understood that a massive turnout was the only way it was going to work

Liberals cannot be trusted with a close election and everyone KNOWS it!

people have no idea the invasion Trump averted.

democrats/marxists would have borrowed another 10 trillion dollars to bring in another 100 million illegals in the next year or 2 . this alone would completely destroy America as was the democrats’/ communists intention.

add to that a socialist economy which would also destroy civilization as Mises proved. Trump literally saved America, freedom, capitalism the world and civilization

Trump is the Wall keeping illegals out
