Reflections From a Murky Pond

Those people who claim that voting doesn’t matter because the candidates and their respective parties are, at the end of the day, all going to act the same are simply expressing a key sign of the pathology of extreme disillusionment. These – can’t really call them fringers anymore, not after two runs of Bernie Sanders – sad ideological extremists just “aren’t well” and aren’t truly capable of processing reality in a more normative fashion and seem to respond solely to stimuli that the rest of us don’t see.

Now true, at some past points in history, these sorts did have some modicum of a point. A professional, establishment Republican was not fundamentally different from a professional, establishment Democrat. Once elected, both differed in behavior from the other only in priorities and rhetoric. Those times, however, have been over for quite a while – something that the Left’s pundits bemoan regularly enough that only the paranoid would dispute the truth of it.

Frankly, between the election of Donald Trump, a total political outsider, to the office of President and Bernie Sanders’ two almost-nominations – both blocked almost solely through machinations of the DNC – it’s more than clear that the sufferers of extreme disillusionment are not enjoying the same consensus reality as the rest of us.

Indeed, instead of sheep voting for either the wolf or the lion, it’s now two opposing flocks of sheep each trying to put their sheepdog into power, thereby gaining the grazing lands for themselves.

The US Senate has confirms Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination to the SCOTUS. They did so in record time and, unsurprisingly in the extreme, without a single Democrat vote. This secures the safety and efficacy of the Supreme Court for decades to come.

To me, the most interesting and important part of this is that Barrett’s confirmation as a SCOTUS Justice is a critical event but is not truly news. Her confirmation and the timeliness of it were never in doubt. Nor was the total opposition to both by the Democrats, who were, are, and will continue to be seething over not being able to “Bork” her nomination.

Barrett’s confirmation is important to America’s future but that it happened and happened now is just another case of Republicans playing by the Democrats’ “rules” and beating them at their own game. It’s just another day in the death spiral of Congressional politics.

In this election, unlike sadly too many of them, the choice before the electorate is clear, starkly so in fact. We, the People can vote for- and reelect President Donald Trump, a man who has done more to restore America and further her path to greatness, and who has done even more than that to further peace throughout the world, or we can allow the Democrats to install Joe Biden as POTUS, a man who never accomplished anything in his life, is sadly beset by mental degeneration, and who has spent most of the last year hiding in his basement while the press road cover for him.

Yes, the choice is very clear, very real, and very existential: America or the next step in birthing whatever monstrosity the Democrats want to replace her with.

Yes, Biden actually stood in front of God and CBS and said aloud, “America was an idea. We’ve never lived up to it but we’ve never walked away from it before.” That alone should have ended any political aspirations he might have. The disdain that opinion shows for Americans, past and present beggars belief. Or, it would, if Biden wasn’t a Democrat who was speaking to others of his ilk.

Exactly! A fundamental principle of America is that we don’t have to make binary choices. One might say that it should never if at all possible, be #MAGA or Bust; it should be #MAGA and Bust! Call it American Privilege.

American Privilege – Born Right, Raised Right

And truly, this is not just a subjective fantasy. Science has repeatedly shown that American – i.e., Conservative, Republican, and/or Right-Wing – women are just more beautiful on average than the womyn of the Left.

Oh! And those less beautiful, Leftist womyn? They know this and they hate it.
