Reflections From a Murky Pond

That’s the so-oft ignored, forgotten, or outright dismissed fact. The years that President Trump was POTUS were years without near as many foreign entanglements or wars than during any President in even relatively recent history. President Trump’s first time was a time of relative peace, but a maligned peace that his and our domestic enemies despised.

But then, it’s not that surprising that Democrats refuse to acknowledge how much President Trump advanced the cause of peace on Earth. They’d rather see the world burn than admit that President Trump was good and right.

Yes. President Trump was, is, and shall be guilty of obstructing socialism and globalism, the two seemingly opposing and counterintuitive pillars of the Democrats’ socioeconomic platform. That is the real “crime” he has repeatedly committed and the primary reason why Democrats have thrown out every longstanding tradition, rule, and law for 9+ years to destroy him.

Yes, after years of incessant accusations, lamentations, and general Histrionical screeds from the Democrats that the Russians “meddled” in our elections, they’ve finally declared that America’s election process is safe and secure. 🙄

I would describe this as “results-based” security practices. If the Democrats don’t get the election results that they want, it’s due to foreign malfeasance and Republicans colluding with those foreign powers. If, however, the Democrats get the results that they do want, then the elections were safe and secure, and any complaints to the contrary are a “threat to democracy.”

In some ways, I almost feel sorry for Mark Zukerberg – almost. I might even actually do so if he didn’t so richly deserve pretty much everyone’s despite, and if I were actually capable of extending that level of empathy to an enemy.

Zuckerberg is beset from both sides. Americans rightfully hate and loath him because he’s used Facebook to silence them and shape public opinion to further Democrat agendas. And, at the same time, Democrats and other enemies of the American People loath him because Facebook has been less than totally successful in their attempted censorship.

And it’s not just rank and file Americans and Leftists. House Democrats have demanded his testimony on not preventing Donald Trump’s 2016 election victory and the Dept. of Justice is trying to rescind parts of the law that allows Facebook – and other social media platforms – to pick and choose who and what topics they silence while maintaining their protection from lawsuits.

Yeah, seems that just about everybody is unfriending Mark Zuckerberg. Of course, it’s not like he probably cares. One, he’s already got more money than he could ever reasonably spend. And, Two, it’s not like “unfriending” meant that any significant number of us or the Left have or will stop using his platforms and, thereby, being part of his product portfolio and income stream.

COVID-19 may still be the pandemic in the front of most people’s minds, but it’s TURDS aka TDS that has been endemic across large swaths of those living inside America’s borders. And it’s been raging, largely unchecked, since November 8, 2016.
