Classical Insanity

“It was the best of times; it was the worst of times.” A more apropos description of today has never been written. For us conservatives it is absolutely the best of times. We are experiencing the greatest change in government and technology since FDR and World War II

And it is breathtaking.

Fortunately, the governmental change is in the right direction. President Trump has embraced the concepts and vison of our founding fathers as a country being a representative republic rather than a bureaucratic dictatorship.

While the technology of WWII was breathtaking it was more visible. Planes, tanks, ships, and weapons were visible at least by newsreel If not in person. Our technology is hidden within our cars, delivered from vast data centers, contained within virtually every device we interact with. Rocket ships land within the grasp of mechanical arms! A stunt of technology? Certainly. And an astounding one.

For the Marxists, however, it is the worst of times. Living in a fantasyland of their own devise, they have isolated themselves from the populace and their supporters instead relying on their own warped imagination to provide a foundation for their direction. A foundation residing on quicksand.

Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result is the classical definition of insanity. Today it is the domain of the Marxist dummycrat party. The Lame Stream News outlets expound on the efforts of the stupid, displaying for all to see how disconnected they really are.

When Donald J. Trump began to demonstrate that not only was he serious about becoming president but he could do it, his “mean tweets” and dismissive attitude toward his political opponents generated Trump Derangement Syndrome. He wasn’t acting “presidential.” I, too, was first turned off by him. Then I recognized his strategy. He was keeping his opponents off balance. And doing it extremely well. And is still doing it. They didn’t like his demeanor. And da meaner he got the better I liked him. (da bump crash!)

Trump 1.0 was unprepared for his reception. Trump 2.0 found the opposition to be woefully unprepared for him. The continued lawfare is a temporary speedbump. And the speed with which he is demolishing the bureaucracy is delicious and exciting. No more Department of Education. Hopefully the Department of Energy is next. Neither department has done ANYTHING to improve the success of either education nor energy.  Fortunately, I was educated before the DOE. Unfortunately, our daughter was not. Nor were far too many victims of government overreach and the tentacles of the NEA.

We can be sure that the Marxists will never quit. They will attempt a comeback. But if they continue like they are, we can hold on to our support, siphon away theirs and perhaps have a true USA within my lifetime.
