The Republic is already lost and gone.
We had a velvet coup - no one noticed, no one believes it. Yet the evidence is all there, right in your faces - and everyone pretends it’s not so. Factions and party cheering the shell game to preserve the shell of what we once were, while the masterminds play us all like cards.
Half the population has made government their god, and the other half is looking to make their chosen political messiah king.
Everything you are witnessing right now, are the death throes of a civil society fast devolving into the morass of anarchy, tribalism and Statism.
It’s what history teaches every failed republic goes through right before sown seeds of chaos and massive upheaval gives way to an oppressive dictatorship that a majority applauds for the empty promise of order, sustenance and revenge. You already hear and see those sentiments being expressed.
We are weak. Divided. Immoral. Ignorant. Unthinking. Unprincipled and infected with a fatal case of Normalcy Bias.
The consequences of which we are just beginning to feel.
Harsh, yes. But the truth often is.
Sadly, as history also teaches - the vast, vast majority - never wants to hear it, and often set upon those trying to warn and plead with them.
This election is not going to save us. We saw our last legitimate national election in 2008.
You do not stop tyranny via civil means, and the blessings of liberty are not possible without repentance, which few churches and leaders are even willing to mention. Now we have intolerant “tolerance”, Chrislam, Black Lives Matters and Democratic Socialism. The opposition surrenders wholesale or tears itself apart in virulence unseen towards those whom perpetrated their servitude.
We have yet to reap what we have already sown, and God is not going to hear a nation’s pleas in calamity when it has discarded Him.
Instead, He is going to laugh at us because he has given us over to our own ways. Proverbs 1:24-32
If this makes you angry - your problem is with the truth and perhaps your faith is in men and their institutions, which gets to the actual root cause of why we have arrived at this point to begin with.
You must be great at parties!

Invar, it is unfortunate that you don’t own a Bible.
We are in “interesting times” without question.
In the fall of next year, the 70th week of Daniel’s prophecy begins. seven years after that, the “governments of men” come to an end, forever.
For those that have kept Yehova’s commandments, that will be good news. For those that have chosen to be “Great Men of the Earth,” it will be a time of gnashing of teeth.
We need to bring as many of the inhabitants of the Earth to Yehova and his son in the remaining time. Having a president that truly knows Yeshua would certainly make that easier for the present. Having a president that says he need not confess his sins because he is a good guy would be a disaster in these perilous times.
Your fears over the direction of the world are preventing you from being an effective witness for Yeshua.
Yehova is not dealing with nations presently, he is dealing with men.
