America's rendezvous with destiny

So we know from history where illegal leaders will take our country.  They'll tighten restrictions on speech, guns, and assembly to make sure no group can rise up to take their country back.  They'll finish off small businesses to make their state stores — Walmart, Costco, Target — undisputed king.  They'll crack down on churches because religion is a threat to totalitarianism.  And they'll "spread the wealth around" — take people's hard earned money and redistribute it to favored groups. 

Don't take my word for it.  Look at every country that lost free elections, whose people lost their right to choose their own leaders.  We all say we don't want to be another Venezuela, but maybe we already are, just at a different stage.  Venezuela was once the richest, most stable democracy in Latin America.

Maybe, in a rare act of courage, they should risk their safety, refuse a bribe, or let the blackmailer tell all if it will save millions of Americans from a totalitarian takeover.  This is their moment to fight for liberty or surrender to tyranny.

"You and I have a rendezvous with destiny.  We will preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand years of darkness.  If we fail, at least let our children and our children's children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done.” —Ronald Reagan

How many of these officials will be able to tell their children that they "did all that could be done"?  Or how many will have to confess, too late, that they did nothing to "preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth"?

Pence cucked, so I guess the thousand years of darkness is on the way.

Pence just cemented his fate in History. Good Bye, Constitution.

Yertle’s up there now doing a great job pushing the Democrat agenda, rebuking those who dare say corruption was rampant. Oh wait...isn’t he supposed to be Republican? And here comes the Schmuck who would choke on truth should it ever pass his lips. Meanwhile about a million Trump supporters are milling around outside.

I love Reagan's quote and his vision. POTUS Trump exemplified some of this.

Unfortunately Bush I and the treasonous GOP started this down hill sh*tball that we now have as a country.
