I saved that as a screen cap.
You are not alone in your sorrow.
The thieves and cheaters are winning for now.
Kleptocracy—if they can keep it.
Guess they can't wait for trillions in endless stimulus, war in Syria and Ukraine and an end to all Chinese tariffs. Weeeee!
I agree with you and feel your pain,
I looks a this as an opportunity to kill off the GOP and start a real opposition party. The GOP is in the way and needs to die. RIP, GOP.
At this point, all I see a available is a civil war. Sadly.
I feel great sadness for our great nation and the AMERICAN people. For my family, I should have sold all the stock in our IRAs and kept it in cash for awhile.
This indeed a profoundly sad moment. RIP USA is right...
I recommended that The Banana Boat Song (Day O) be made the new national anthem for the world’s newest third world ****hole!
You imply that Trump has failed.
We’re right there with you.
Thank you for your service to what was once a great country.
I deeply appreciate it, even if it didn’t work out the way we wanted. You did the right thing anyways and that counts in God’s book.
We the People are now the resistance. We’ve got one hell of a fight to fight and cannot count on the “republican” losers to help. We’re on our own.
I am worried.
But I selfishly take comfort in a couple of small things.
1. My wife’s on Social Security and I’ll be going on it in a few years. I believe The Dems are not going to cut it. They’ll find a way to shore it up. GOP has too many rank and file members and officials (like Rick Perry) who denounce Social Security as a “Ponzi scheme”. Those people (many on Freerepublic) obviously don’t support it and the GOP that uses that “Ponzi” term can’t be trusted not to gut it - for example by raising the eligibility age to 69 or 70 - even though nobody will hire people in that age group, so this would deny social security to people who have no other income and no way to get employed
2. Right now my family could use that $2k stimulus that Trump supported but Mitch blocked. We’ve been hurt financially in ways that are directly due to the covid . The Dems say that passing the $2k which Mitch blocked will be their first order of business. We’ll see, but at least they don’t deride it as “socialist” - a term that makes no sense from a government that showers other countries with handouts.
3. Also, Biden said he would deliver the infrastructure program that Trump promised in 2016 but was blocked by Mitch and Paul Ryan. Our roads bridges and airports are crumbling, as candidate Trump said in 2016. If it takes Democrats to act on something like Trumps vision, I’ll take it
All that said, I fear what the Dems will do to undermine religious freedom, free speech, sanity and safety in our schools, the sovereignty of our borders, the security of our neighborhoods.
I’m not too concerned about huge tax increases, since Wall Street owns Biden and was his biggest contributor
Here is what we can forsee for the USA when Chuck Schumer becomes majority leader of Senate:
* Washington DC and Puerto Rico become US States giving the Democrats 4 additional senate seats. This assures them a permanent majority in the upper house.
* Packing of the Supreme Court. With the Senate controlled permanently by Democrats, you can be certain that there will be more Justices like Ginsburg in the Supreme Court
* Amnesty for millions of illegals, ensuring a permanent voting base for Democrats everywhere.
* Medicare for all ( including illegals who will qualify ). Remember, all Democrat candidates for President raised their hands when asked if illegals will be covered by healthcare.
* A return to the Obama foreign policy of appeasing Iran and distancing from Israel.
* A strengthened China, with more “foreign students” ( note the quotes ) accepted in our universities to spy and steal our technology.
The formalization of the New Green Deal. Fracking slowly banned. Expect INCREASES in oil and gas prices and more expenses for businesses to make their offices and premises more “green”.
* A federal mandate to make Covid-19 vaccination compulsory for “the good of the country”.
In other words, the United States of America that we used to know is gone.
America dies not with a bang but a whimper.
Now is NOT the time to blackpill.
We’ll see what the GOP does tomorrow - but the US is NOT DEAD.
The GOP - dead, and good riddance - but tomorrow starts the real revolution where we take this country back - with a new party.
Twice in the twentieth century, Democrats got us embroiled in shooting wars against the very form of government they now are imposing upon us.
What a waste of American valor.
Totally agree. The people who voted for this deserve every bad thing that's coming their way.
Check out the Prager article on the good Germans who looked the other way when Hitler came to power. Deja vu all over again.
Happy Hour for the Tree of Liberty
