I've been a positive thinker my whole life. I'm a big believer in always seeing the glass as half full. It's the only way to live.
Sure, there are lots of crazy and bad things happening right now. I'll address them after the holiday is over. But for now, I want to make you smile. I want to make you see your glass as half full this Thanksgiving weekend.
We could focus on the bad. We all know the election was stolen. A new poll by CNBC/Change Research shows only 3% of President Donald Trump's voters see Joe Biden as the legitimate winner. Seventy-three percent see Trump as the legitimate winner, while 24% are not sure.
Only 3% of Trump voters believe he should concede to Biden. Sixty-six percent think he should never concede. And 72% would leave the GOP if Trump were to form a third party.
So, the Trump Army is still very much together, loyal, passionate and in fighting spirit. That's good news.
We could focus on the lockdowns and shutdowns. On this Thanksgiving holiday, Democrats want us to live masked and miserable indoors. They want us locked down, lonely, bored, depressed, hopeless. They want your business closed, your job gone. They want to leave you with no way to pay your mortgage, your car payment, your kids' college tuition. This is how they make us dependent on government.
Oregon just legalized heroin and cocaine. A family of four in Portland can snort cocaine or inject heroin without breaking the law. But if a nice, normal, law-abiding, taxpaying Christian family had too many friends and family members over for Thanksgiving dinner, they could be dragged off to prison by the 21st-century version of the Gestapo. Heroin -- good. Cocaine -- good. Turkey -- bad.
If you think of all that, you'll be depressed.
So, let's focus on the good. Let's think of the glass as half full.
First, the GOP didn't lose on election night. We actually had a very solid night. There was no blue wave. There was even a moderate red wave. This is still a center-right country. It's just that the "fake news" media won't tell you.
Donald Trump faced four years of lies, smears, fraud, slander, fake news and fake polls. And still, he got 11 million more votes than he did in his 2016 victory. That's a miracle.
Trump got the most reelection votes of any sitting president in history. Trump got the most votes of any Republican in history. Trump got more black, Latino and minority votes than any Republican in half a century. Because of Trump, the GOP expanded its base dramatically. Somehow, the media missed all that.
Although House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the Dems were supposed to run the table and add 20 House seats, instead, they got their heads handed to them. The GOP has flipped 11 House seats and could get eight more.
The GOP did very well in the U.S. Senate, too. Republicans had to defend many more seats than Democrats yet fought their way to a 50-46 majority, with two races to go in Georgia. If the GOP wins only one of those races, it retains the majority.
But on a state-by-state basis, the GOP did even better. It (again, with Trump at the top of the ticket) expanded its lead in state legislatures across the country, and in 22 states, Republicans will hold unified control over the governor's office and both houses of the legislature.
The great news is Republican state legislatures are now in control of redistricting Houses seats for the next decade. This almost guarantees the GOP will retake the House in 2022.
Don't forget conservatives now hold a commanding 6-3 lead in the Supreme Court.
And as far as President Trump's fate, I'm the author of the new No. 1 national bestseller "TRUMP RULES." I've studied Donald J. Trump for 41 years -- since I was a freshman at Columbia University. I know this much after a lifetime of studying Trump: If anyone can overturn the election results, Trump can. He was born to make the impossible possible.
Every time liberals or the liberal media think Trump is as good as dead, he rises from the ashes like a phoenix. Despite the media lies, based on what I know about the magical "Trump rules" of success, this presidential race is far from over.
As we conservative and Christian Americans enjoy Thanksgiving weekend, we are certainly under attack. But we still have lots to be thankful for, and a lot to smile about. Our glass is more than half full.
RE: Supreme Court
It’s a 5-4 majority. Roberts is on the other side.
Also, with regard to contesting the election, I hope the contesting of Michigan will also put John James in the Senate. He won and they have tried to steal that.
Author is wrong. SCOTUS is only 5-4 for constitutionalists. When a writer gets a key fact incorrect I tend to take less seriously everything else he states.
If Trump had “won” outright through the Democrat fraud, nothing would be done about it.
He hasn’t “lost”, and I despise the use of the past tense to describe what Democrats and other corrupt people are trying to do.
For 4 years, Trump has decried a Fake Press, and they just tried to M.C. a fake election. They failed and Trump will not “concede” so that they can succeed, now.
I suppose that most do not see that to Make America Great Again, it must rise from some ashes.
With regard to the Supreme Court, the author may be somewhat correct.
Roberts will side with the Constitutionalists, just to prevent Thomas from writing the decisions. It is the only way he can impact the court, now.
Conservatives have very little to be thankful for to be honest...If you are banking on the SCOTUS to do the right thing when the Leftists take over I want what you are smoking...!
I am not smoking anything.
I simply stated what I believe will the the action most likely taken by Roberts, which will be to side against the crazies, if forced to.
This will allow him to water-down the written decisions, which is not such a great thing. The Court can still, then, appear to be less Constitutionalist in its decisions. Roberts can limit the scope of those decisions.
If the Leftists “take over”, as you state, the Court will be packed with at least 6 crazies. All bets are then off, and it doesn’t really matter what most of the current justices do.
Roberts is compromised as he broke several laws when he adopted his kids from overseas and the Obama thugs found out about it during the fight over Obamacare..it’s the gift that keeps on giving..You can count on the Left packing the courts, they must pack the courts to get what they want and they will do so, with glee!
So if Obama people found out about Roberts, why doesn’t Trump people know/talk/expose it?
I mean if Roberts is going to be a constant sucker Punch to Republicans, under Trump, he should expose Roberts “law breaking”.
Democrats take down a fighting president through permanently fraudulent elections and are prepared to sick the dogs on us, but we should celebrate insipid GOP legislatures like the ones we have now, that don’t act during crises. Oh yeah, John Roberts is a conservative.
Think I’ll head back to the Rapture thread.
Later.
As much as I love President Trump he was awful at picking his people, many wound up being Deep Staters. Only towards the end did he make some decent picks but for the first 3 years they could not be trusted so why would they open this up not that it would matter much as the Media would bury it if they did.
