Cult Like Responses Of Trump Derangement Syndrome

If you are a Conservative you know full well what Trump Derangement Syndrome (DRS) is. The morning after Donald Trump won the election, after eight long years of Barack Obama, you got on social media and wrote something like "yea", "hurrah" or "I can't believe we did it." Within minutes several of your friends posted angry comments or shared nasty memes, some using the vilest language possible, and questioned both your sanity and your faith. There was never a wait and see period and we'll see how things work out. Instead it was - Don't you dare associate that name with anything positive - EVER!!!!!!!!

All this was very confusing to us. It was an election for God's sake. Our side won, their side lost. It had been that way in our country for 240 years. If you don't like the results of an election you suck it up, work hard, become the loyal opposition and try to get your guy in the next time. And besides, there were principles very important to us that we had voted on and had hopes that Mr. Trump would follow through on. Topping the list for the average Conservative was ending Roe V Wade, the Supreme Court selection(s), border security, lowering taxes, building up the economy, being friends with Israel, ending the Iran deal, draining the Swamp and getting rid of Obamacare.

We could see where those on the Left would object to the proposed Trump policies but we could not understand their failure to acknowledge or understand that policies even mattered. Instead all we heard were comments that Trump lies 100 times a day, that he hates Blacks, Hispanics, Muslims, Jews, gays, transgenders, women, the poor, the handicap, and is a Nazi, immoral to the core, lazy, in it for the money and talks like a third grader.  And our "friends" never had any interest in debating policies or perceptions or understanding that a Clinton victory would have in our minds been a disaster. But also they had no interest in a logical discussion as to why some (or most) of their opinions on Trump's character may not be as black  as they were so sure of.

And that's where we get into why DRS is like cult behavior. A positive mention of President Trump or anything Trumpian causes in some people - eyes to glare, veins to bulge, spittle to form on the lips and an inability to hear and process an opposing viewpoint. I'm not just talking about comments made on line. I have a relative with whom I was having a nice conversation with. Foreign policy happened to come up and I began to opine on what I believed President Trump's intentions were. I was immediately cut off, informed that Trump has no plan, only governs by the seat of the pants to stroke his ego and was then lectured on how awful the man has been every day since he was elected. When it was over it was very clear that ANY comments by me about President Trump would not be welcomed.

Please understand that I'm not calling everyone who disagrees with my political views a cultist or a Marxist. I do firmly believe though that the Democrat Party is rapidly moving to the far Left and is becoming more Marxist by the day. I believe that Marxism is by definition athetistic at its core and that in turn makes Marxism a type of religious belief. And Marxism it is a belief that has always viewed Judeo/Christian beliefs and traditions as threats that must eventually be eliminated. 

Thus it is that when someone has bought in to the core tenets currently being promulgated by the far Left, even if they do not consider themselves Marxists, and if anyone questions those core tenets, it elicits an emotional reaction rather than a logical response. It reminds me of the second warning sign of someone who may be in a cult - "No tolerance for questions or critical inquiry".

So what else would cause otherwise very nice, intelligent and caring people to flip out at the snap of a finger or the sight of a MAGA hat? There are four factors.

The first is an education system which has become over the years extremely liberal and is filled at the top levels with a very large percentage of professors and even administrators who favor and thus teach Marxist ideas. Studies have shown that eighty to ninety percent of professors in colleges and universities lean Liberal and in turn vote Democrat. Graduates are now coming out with a world view that has distorted the past, hates a lot of the present and wants to fundamentally change the future. Thought that counters those arguments is met with emotion, considered hateful and is not even allowed in many colleges and universities today.

The second factor is cultural. Most people in the US are not politically intelligent. Their opinions instead are strongly influenced by the movies and shows they see, the music they listen to and the non news media they absorb. This area is dominated by Leftists and thus reflects their opinions, morals and political views.

The third is that Trump committed the unpardonable sin of promising and then beginning to deliver on undoing everything that Barack Obama achieved while he was in office. President Barack Obama has almost saint like status to the Left. Many love him, have this powerful emotional attachment to him, court his advice and blessing, and long for the smooth double talk that covers his radical agenda. They also love Michelle and still put her on the covers of their magazines while completely shutting out the stunningly beautiful Melania. MSM coverage of Obama was and is the exact opposite of that given to Trump. 

Sadly there are still people on the Right who would rather have a leader who looks nice and talks smoothly, even though he governs against everything they actually believe in, than have a guy who always says exactly what he is thinking, albeit often crudely, but then govens toward every goal they would hope to achieve. Goals the media has consistently distorted.

And the fourth major factor is that the vast majority of the main stream media (MSM) is owned by a half dozen corporations, all run by far Left leaning executives, and the MSM is now effectively the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party. The Democrat's plan has been clearly announced and has been well executed by the media. They would never admit that President Trump was or deserved to be the real President of the United States. They would present everything President Trump did in a negative light (media coverage has been over 90% negative about Trump since the day he got elected). And they would intentionally take things out of context and twist them to fit their narrative that Orange Man is not only bad and a dunce but also a threat to the survival of Democracy as we know it.

Thus it was in Charlottesville when a group of protesters came because they wanted to petition for the removal of statues of Confederate generals and another group of protesters and locals came to support the status quo. Into the city their arrived two other groups. One consisted of a KKK group and the other consisted of an Antifa group, who showed up to cause trouble against the KKK group. Stuff happened and eventually President Trump made his public comments about it. He first said according to the published transcript (which you can Google to check my story), referring to the original two protest groups, that there "were fine people on both sides". I think any reasonable person would agree with that. Then just two paragraphs later he condemned all violence and specifically condemned any actions by the KKK or other extremist groups.

In response the MSM intentionally and wrongly reported that Trump called the KKK "fine people". So pervasive was this hoax that most attempts to set the story straight via Twitter or other social media (Big Tech is also owned and run by those on the Left) and fact checked by Left leaning Big Tech sites were censored, scrubbed, removed and demonitized. On top of that Joe Biden colorfully cited the "fine people" hoax in his acceptance speech at the DNC convention as the main reason he put his hat into the ring to run for President and then kept on repeating his rendition of the story every time he got out of his basement in order to assure us that President Trump is the worse kind of racist. I assume he actually knows better and is just lying about it for political advantage. But then again maybe his handlers have kept the truth from him.

Or take for example a supposed video showing President Trump making fun of a handicap man. I have heard this so many times - How could you ever vote for someone who makes fun of the handicap? Most people when seeing the video of Trump making wobbly moves with his arms and saying OOO OOO while at the same time being informed that he was doing this to make fun of a handicapped person believe the report without asking any further questions. But this too is a hoax devised by the MSM to try to defame and further their agenda against the President.

Here is the actual story. Trump at one time remarked that he remembered at 9/11 there were hundreds or even thousands of Muslims that were cheering after the Twin Towers came down. When asked again about it Trump said hundreds but did not use the word thousands. ABC News fact checked it and declared it false. They assured their audience that no Muslims were seen celebrating the fall of the Twin Towers. Two bits of information then came to light. First, old videos surfaced showing that someone from ABC news itself had actually on TV reported on the said celebrations. And an article published by the NY Times also reported that on the roof tops of apartment buildings across the river in New Jersey there were groups of Muslims that were watching the towers burning and were seen celebrating when the towers collapsed. Trump, being a New Yorker, must have been recalling what he had read in the NY Times.

So the media finds the Times reporter and wants him to recant his original story to reduce the egg on their faces. The reporter does not actually deny what he wrote but he does soften it a bit and say that the number was not in the thousands or maybe not even in the hundreds. Later at a rally (that the reporter was not at) Trump does a wobbly move with his arms and body in referring to a reporter who waffled on his original story that went against Trump's version. As it turns out there are at least 4 other videos (which I have viewed) showing Trump speeches where Trump uses the same body motions when he refers to people who waffle on their positions.  

Well, it turns out that the reporter that Trump was making fun of waffling this time was someone with a handicap. That gave the MSM an opening to set up one of their most cruel hoaxes. They show Trump wobbling, report that he is making fun of a handicap person, then freeze frame one of Trumps hands in a downward pose from the wobble video and then show the reporter with his hand in the same position. Did Trump actually know anything about the NY Times reporter other than what he wrote? Did he even know that the Times reporter had a handicap? Did Trump remember one of a thousand business reporters he may or may not have met in New York over a dozen years before for a interview on his businesses? Probably not. And, as it turns out, the reporter's arm and hand are frozen, so he doesn't even have a handicap that matches the wobble.

Finally I'll bring up the kid from a Catholic school who went to a Right to Life rally in Washington D.C. Nicholas Sandman had just bought a MAGA hat and was waiting with his group for their bus to come. Nearby was a group called that called themselves Black Hebrews who were yelling vulgar and racist things toward them. An American Indian activist was chanting at the Black Hebrews and when the boys started to join in the chants to support him the activist turns around, goes up to Sandman and starts beating his drum inches from Sandman's face. Not knowing really what to do and not wanting to do anything provocative Sandman just stood there and smiled, taking the abuse from the Indian. CNN got ahold of some of the video, edited it, took it out of context, created a story and then went on a crusade to destroy the young man's life. His crime? Being against abortion (the blood sacrament of the Left) and wearing a Trump MAGA hat.  

My point here is that if someone's views about President Trump and his supporters are formed mainly by watching and listening to the same news and information outlets that are themselves actually providing not news but propaganda, and if someone is only surrounded by people who also only hear the same stuff, then is it far fetched to believe that people can be so easily brainwashed into group think, are fearful to break out of their comfort zone and will get emotional when their beliefs are threatened?

President Trump is not a saint. He has many flaws but also great strengths. The picture of Trump created by the MSM has little resemblance to who the person actually is, what he actually has been able to accomplish and to the direction of his policies. Marxist's elements are tearing apart the Democrat party. They want to rewrite the past, redefine our language, tear down all national and moral borders and with religious zeal replace everything we hold dear with some type of atheistic Utopia and the religious intolerance that goes with it. 

The hoax's above are considered gospel by all Trump haters and low information voters. Many after being exposed to the truth still refuse to believe that they were deceived. There are some though that have done their research, going beyond the fact check sites, and have then asked this one simple question. Why would they (the media) lie to me?  Welcome to the red pill moment.

President Trump is going to be re-elected and after the election the brains of many of the indoctrinated are once again going to explode. Swamp creatures are going to be exposed and the MSM will in turn double down on their hatred and misrepresentations of President Trump and their efforts to get him out of office by whatever means possible. There is a plan afoot for more racial riots and more blood in the streets. The true believers think this is their time, but they have overplayed their hand.

You see, this actually is a spiritual battle. Evil spirits in the high places are agitated and coming out of the shadows. They want not only corruption but death and destruction as well. But we are not going to let them. I have been praying a long time for there to be truth and justice released into this land. And that is going to happen. There will be a healing of the racial divide not born out of violence. There will be an overturn of Roe V Wade which will lift a major curse off of our land. There are major corrections and resettings in store for many institutions in this great land, including the Church.

Into the darkness there will come a great light.

The Smell Of Abortion

"Did you know there is a smell to abortion?" - Abbey Johnson

The RNC Convention, which I thought was absolutely fantastic from start to finish, featured a very strong pro life witness throughout. Whether it was the talk by Abbey Johnson, a former national employee of the month for Planned Parenthood turned Pro Life activist, which brought me to tears, or the one by Sister Byrne in full habit, a long time military surgeon who later became a nun and quipped that she was not just for unborn lives but also for eternal lives, the collection of short speeches by a bunch of real people gave a very clear indication of the importance of this coming election.

It was a sharp contrast to the DNC, which is not only strongly pro abortion, even approving abortion right up to birth and in certain cases just after (infanticide), but with Kamala Harris as the VP choice, who has been an activists for abortion, prosecuting those who oppose it in conscience in California and raking Justice Cavanaugh over the coals in the Senate confirmation hearings, they have now given us the most pro abortion ticket ever to run for the highest office in the land. At one time the Dems hid their true agenda by declaring that abortion should be legal but rare. Today support for abortion for any reason and at any time during the pregnancy is now the main litmus test for inclusion in the Democrat Party.

Less than 2 months after I became a born again Christian and Roe V Wade became law, a deep curse settled upon our country. Since that time, in order to honor and in turn empower the ancient spirit of Baal (a major or perhaps the major spiritual principality over our country), over 60 million innocent children in this country alone have been sacrificed. Most who have participated in these sacrifices were certainly not aware of what they actually were doing or who they actually were honoring and empowering, but innocent lives were being taken, blood was being shed, evil spirits were gaining power and influence, and we and our country have suffered as a result.

Just like slavery could be tolerated because people convinced themselves that certain other people were less than human, so abortion is tolerated by saying that a human life is not really a human life if it isn't wanted, or can't be seen, or might be somehow defective, or hasn't taken a breath yet outside the womb. The lie that an unborn child is not really a human but is instead just a lump of cells inside a woman's body is from the deepest pit of hell. For too long we have tolerated this lie, and for those who know better but do nothing to bring light into this darkness, there will come a day when we stand before the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords to give an account for what we did or did not do according to the light given us.

Since 1973 we have had chances to vote on pro life measures in our States. Since 1973 we have had people running for office who have informed us as to their stance concerning being pro life or pro abortion. A lot of politicians have given lip service to the pro life cause but when push came to shove they did nothing or next to nothing. And yet, each person old enough to vote has had many chances to play a part in ending this great sin.

Voting pro life has always been my litmus test to determine for whom I will vote for. For me it tops all other economic and foreign policy considerations, although those that vote pro life usually are Conservative as well on social and economic issues and are for the US supporting the State of Israel (another spiritual issue that I believe results in either blessings or curses for America).

Many states have passed legislation to restrict abortion. However the main battle then switches to the courts, the restrictions get challenged and then ultimately overturned at the highest levels. The fact is, who ever wins the highest office in the land gets the right to appoint judges at the highest levels. Since 1973 the Supreme Court has not had enough strong Conservative members to overturn Roe V Wade.

We now have for the first time in my life a real chance to end or at least weaken that curse over our nation. One or two more Justices will be enough to finally turn the tide and the odds are high that there will be those openings in the next 4 years. Having a solid majority in the Supreme Court is a real possibility if President Trump gets re-elected. It will for sure not be possible if a Democrat wins. There is not one single Democrat who will admit they will support a pro life position. This may actually be our last chance.

In 2016 we did not know if Trump would actually follow through on his pro life promises and his commitment to appoint very Conservative judges. Yet he has, 2 Supreme Court Justices and over 200 other Conservative Federal judges confirmed. I don't care if you like the guy or hate the guy. Your votes are about issues that have great and lasting importance and not about a person's personality. And the election is a binary choice. Not voting or voting third party contributes nothing in the cause to overturn Roe V. Wade.

As a Christian I believe that how we vote on the pro life issue will determine how God will in turn bless our country. It is the base issue that determines everything else. Please, pray, pray, pray about what God's will is. Pray that God will put into office a person to appoint the right judges to the Supreme Court and the Federal Courts. Pray that the Senate has enough pro life members to get those persons confirmed. Pray that confusion will fill the enemy's ranks. And then get off your knees and vote.

It is coming. I believe the curse will be lifted in my life time, and hopefully soon. I believe there is a confrontation coming with the prophets of Baal and that their positions and altars of influence will be destroyed. This I do know. It will take place a lot sooner if enough of us humble ourselves, turn from our wicked ways, pray, and vote pro life.

A Prophecy About Kamala Harris

As the Democrat National Convention begins this week I thought I would share some of my thoughts as well as a prophecy about their VP pick.

Below is a link to a prophecy about Kamala Harris that was posted by Charlie Shamp in September 2017. Charlie is a proven soul winner and also someone who has given many accurate national prophecies for both the US and for other countries. He has preached and ministered to crowds of hundreds of thousands in multiple nations but is also a street preacher. He has organized and will be leading a major outdoor street crusade to the inner city of Chicago this September.

This is the strangest political season I have ever seen. Donald Trump has a portfolio of success both foreign and domestic that is a foot thick and yet no one would know it because main stream media's coverage of him has, by design, been well over 90 per cent negative. The focus for the 2020 election on the Democrat side has had nothing to do with who their actual candidates are or what their policies would be. Instead it has all been - Donald Trump is horrible, get rid of Donald Trump.

As I recently wrote, Joe Biden is a uniquely weak selection. Over the years and up to and through this campaign season Biden has never been able to generate any personal excitement toward himself on the national stage. He has numerous things going against him, not least of which is his declining mental acuity. So how did he end up representing the Democrat Party for this election?

The RNC and DNC are actually run like corporations. There are powerful insiders with a lot of influence who try to direct the way the corporations will go. When they are in power it is usually the President who also acts as the party CEO. When Bill Clinton served as President for 8 years the Clintons were able to place their people in a lot of major places of influence, not just in the Party but also throughout different areas of the government and the military. President Bush and President Obama were also able to do the same.

A thing to remember here is that most of government has been run by people who have mostly the same goals, who live close to each other in the same areas, who socialize at the same parties and whose families go to the same schools. Their have what is known as a Neo-Con foreign policy which favors heavy US investment and intervention abroad. Their domestic policy favors heavy influence by the Federal Government over policy and distribution of funds. The insiders of both parties want to grow the size and influence of Government. To understand the reason simply, the more money that runs through Washington for Foreign or Domestic purposes the more money there is available for eager hands to slice off their share. Money equals power and the lust for power drives those in Government, even if their original intentions were pure.

This is the major reason why the establishment of both parties hate Donald Trump. He is an outsider who is upsetting their apple cart. He is not a Neo-Con, he plays by different rules, he doesn't smile and promise one thing while actually doing another and so far he has not been bought off by the big money lobbyists from major corporations and other countries.

Clinton people had been running the DNC ever since Bill Clinton was elected President. It was their intent to have Hillary Clinton become the Democrat nominee after Bush's 2nd term but Barack Obama's star was rising hot and fast, and after he won he started installing his own people in key positions throughout government. Obama's people were a lot farther to the Left than Clinton's although Hillary herself leaned a lot further Left than Bill.

Hillary was the designated replacement for Obama but now there was a third group, represented by Bernie Sanders, vying for power. This group consisted of a lot of more Marxist flavored radicals who were not content with Obama's strategy of a slow and steady transistion to Socialist and then Marxist government. They wanted revolution now and were upset when Bernie got shunted aside by the Party insiders.

 Clinton was supposed to win. Everything was supposed to keep heading Left. All the dirty tricks against Trump would be buried and the people in power would be able to keep the radicals in check. But in the natural there were two main reasons that Clinton lost. One was that she believed the polls so she did not work hard enough in the key swing states during the last month of the contest. The second was that Hillary did not come off as a very likable person. She does not have that Obama charm and many Dems simply could not check the box when it came time to vote.

Behind the scenes Obama now became the chief dude although the Clinton camp remained strong. Each side had people they favored to run for the Dem ticket in 2020. Although President Obama did not publicly endorse anyone early I am pretty certain that it was his camp that encouraged Kamala Harris to run. I suspect another early choice was Cory Booker. The insiders still did not want Sanders, or for that matter Elizabeth Warren, who was too close to Sanders. Obama was not high on Biden.

As it turned out Senator Booker bowed out early because he came off as angry and as a bit of a nut case. Senator Harris started strong and got, as expected, a big push from the media. However, after Tulsi Gabbert utterly destroyed her in one two minute statement, everyone realized that Harris did not come off as either likable or believable. And she possesses a creepy laugh that reminds everyone of Hillary's, only worse.

After Bloomberg's 500 million didn't work, too low primary vote totals for most of the others, a dissatisfaction with Warren from the insiders and the belief that Kobachar and Mayor Pete had limited national potential (although they might be wrong on Mayor Pete), this basically left it a race between Biden and Sanders. At the last minute, just before the South Carolina primary, deals were made with a bunch of people and the fix went in to push Biden.

Why Biden? At this point everyone on the inside already knew that Joe had cognitive problems and would not be able to push forth a vigorous campaign or serve a full term if elected. They knew that the race was not about their person but rather about getting rid of President Trump. At least with Biden they had someone whom they believed they could control and who would continue to pursue a gradual slant towards the Left, even though publically Joe went a lot further to the radical Left in an effort to keep that faction in tow. If they could just keep Biden in his basement as much as possible to avoid getting into trouble and if they could make sure he chose the right person to replace him, and if the media continued to do their job, things might end up even better than they hoped.

Well, back into the picture enters Obama's first choice. Is there something else that is going on that we don't know about. I guess we will find out pretty soon.

My Joe Biden Dream

Last night I had a dream about Joe Biden. 

I once had a dream where I was at the White House when President Obama was in office. While walking around I saw the same style mirror frame hanging on a wall that our family business use to import and sell. What was unusual about the mirror at the White House was that it didn't have any mirror glass in it. I got alone with President Obama in a side room and told him that I was a bit upset about the frame not having any glass. I think the deeper meaning of the dream was the idea of Obama looking into a mirror and not seeing anything. I'll let you figure that one out.

One time I had a dream where I interacted with President Trump. We played a backyard game where we threw folding chairs against a wall about 20 feet away, scoring points if we could get them to stick on the wall. In that dream President Trump represented God and the purpose of the dream was to give me some advice about using spiritual authority.

So last night I'm in what seems to be some type of health clinic. Joe Biden is dressed in a hospital gown, in a wheelchair, very frail and bald looking, and I wheel him into a fairly large room with a bunch of people, one of them my cousin Marsha. I point to her and say to Biden that I want to introduce to you my cousin Marsha. Then I say to my cousin, "Oh bye the way, this is Joe Biden."  Marsha smiles and tells me that she knows that's Joe Biden.

I happen to have Biden's chart with me. One the front side it looks like a watercolor picture. I turn it over and on the back right side it has several columns with numbers and letters which I don't understand. My brother Jet then walks over and looks over my shoulder at the chart. Smiling Jet remarks, "Oh, he has a blue mark. Those are the money makers". By "money makers" I understand Jet is talking about certain kinds of health problems which allow doctors to make a lot more money than what would be average.

Scanning the chart I spot a small blue shield and on it is the word "atrophy", which is a condition where the body or organs are wasting away, although I understand it as Biden's muscles starting to harden and becoming useless. I look at Joe and he is looking so old and frail and, although there is nothing about his politics or a lot of his past actions that I agree with, I feel so bad for Joe that I wrap my arms around him and he in turn puts his arms around me. I begin to cry, Biden begins to cry and my cousin Marsha, seeing us cry, also begins to cry. This hugging and crying goes on for quite awhile and then I wake up.

At this point I'm not sure as to the dream's meaning. I have a brother-in-law with ALS and a daughter going to Mayo Clinic at the end of the month because of a condition that no one can figure out, so maybe the dream is not political but instead is me processing my emotions for them. If it is a prophetic political dream then things don't look too good for Biden's future. We will see.

10 Reasons Trump Will Win By A Landslide In November

1.  Incumbents almost always win. And Trump has a long and strong record of accomplishments to point to, including record low unemployment and a record strong economy up to the Covid 19 shutdowns. Democrats would like to delay the recovery until after the November elections, but it has already started to strongly rebound.

2.  The most accurate election predictor, which has been right 22 out of the last 24 Presidential elections and which in 2016 gave candidateTrump an 87% chance of winning, gives him a 91% chance of winning in 2020. Its algorithms look at how people perform in Presidential primaries. This year, even though President Trump ran unopposed and people did not need to turn out, his numbers were crushingly high.

3.  President Trump's approval rating within his base is over 90%. and the base is motivated. Unlike almost any other politician in memory President Trump has followed through on almost every thing he promised when he campaigned, and his supporters recognize that.

4.  In 2016 Trump won 200 counties in critical swing states that had voted Democrat by a 20% margin in the previous 20 years. He won those by a margin of 20%. They counties were once part of the traditional Democrat base, comprised of mostly white working class voters. These voters felt both that the Democrat Party had abandoned them and that Trump best represented their daily concerns. 

This is the group that won Trump the election in 2016. They made up for votes that Trump did not get within the Evangelical community and within certain segments of the ruling class in the Republican Party (never Trumpers). Since 2016 the Democrat Party has swung so much farther to the Left and away from the concerns of that group that Trump will not only maintain, but greatly expand his support from them.

5.  As noted above, in 2016, because they did not believe he would follow through on his promises and because of certain other obvious personal weaknesses, many Evangelical voters either sat out the election or voted third party. For the most part that will not happen again. President Trump has been the best Pro-Life President ever. He is arguably the most Pro-Israel President ever. There are a dozen other metrics important to Christians that President Trump has also proven to be very strong on.

6.  President Trump's approval rating among Blacks has been steadily growing. Traditionally, Republican Presidential candidates garner about 10% of the Black vote. There were two polls done earlier this year which showed President Trump's approval with Blacks at 31% and then 35%. A poll that came out 2 weeks ago had it at 41%. There are several reasons for this. 

(A) Because of Trump's policies Black owned business have increased 400% since Trump was elected.
(B) President Trump has enacted real prison reform, a major concern in the Black community.
(C) Black colleges have received strong funding from Trump's administration.
(D) Black voices such as Candice Owens with her Blexit movement (Black exit from the Democrat Party) and others  have articulated that Republican positions and policies better represent traditional Conservative views held in the Black community.
(E) Did I mention Kayne West?

Approval ratings do not necessarily translate directly to votes. But if Republicans ever get 15% of the Black vote then it is game over for the Democrat Party.

7.  Hispanic approval for President Trump has been polling in the mid 40's, way up from the 30% he received in 2016.

8.  Following the lead of Brendan Stracha's #WalkAway movement (a gay hair dresser from New York city) there have been large numbers of people from traditional Democrat voting groups who have realized that the main stream media has been utterly biased and unfair in their coverage of President Trump. Ten's of thousands or more have been "red pilled" and will now be voting in 2020 for Trump.
 
9.  Joe Biden is a uniquely weak candidate. He has never created any excitement toward himself on the national stage. This year he surged ahead after winning South Carolina only because party insiders decided he was their guy and pressured most of the other candidates to drop out so Sanders would not win. Polls show that in 2020, 75% of Democrats will not be voting "for" Joe Biden. Instead they will be voting "against" Donald Trump. There is also a good bet that some of the Sanders people will not show up to vote, even though Biden has in public adopted most of Sander's platform. This is very bad for Biden because historically more people show up to vote "for" someone than "against" someone.

Joe Biden is, to be kind, way, way past his prime, and everyone knows it. No one can really invision him as a strong and intelligent leader with vision, ready to take on the numerous difficult challenges of the Presidency. That non confidence will cost him votes. 

He has numerous road blocks from his past which the press has largely ignored but which will be brought out front and center by President Trump and his campaign. These including sexual assault, compulsive touching, grouping and hair sniffing. and being a little too friendly around little girls.  There are also a few books out detailing how Biden's family have become rich by taking advantage of government related contracts connected to areas that Vice President Biden was in charge of. 

It will be hard for Biden to get around the fact that he was very cozy with the country that released upon us the Covid 19 virus. And his past policies are very unpopular with the Progressive Left who are now taking over his party and who want to burn down and shout down anything resembling common sense.

Biden just released his platform which, as I said, adopts about everything that Bernie Sanders was running on. The Democrat Party's gambit is (if they are really going to let Biden get the nomination) most Democrats will believe that Joe is really a moderate and is only playing the political game to keep the Progressive Left happy. The problem is, so many of those positions are so wacky that it is just too easy for President Trump to read aloud (as I saw him do last night) one goofy thing after another, look at the camera and say; "Can you believe it?" 

Both the past and the present are out to get Joe Biden. That leaves him very little future.

10  And on top of all of the above, the events of this year have frightened a lot of people. Those events include riots that are still going on, tearing down of statues, defunding police and the lack for support for law and order. Many of the people frightened are life long Democrats who never before would have thought of voting Republican. Fear is one of the greatest motivators in life and this year fear will bring out two groups of people to vote the Republican ticket. Those that have never voted before and Democrats who dislike Trump but fear what the Marxist inspired chaos has created.

Gun sales have gone through the roof in the last 3 months, many of the sales to first time gun owners, a lot of those Democrats who before were anti-gun until they felt their own lives were or would be threatened.

So ignore the polls and all the sound and fury you are hearing and will hear in the next few months. Ignore the political commentators. Turn off the TV or at least the political news and the daily - Trump is bad news - which has been a staple of the main stream Democrat propaganda media since the day he got elected. And even though YOU STILL NEED TO VOTE and you need to pray against massive fraud via mail in ballots, you should relax. Trump will not only get voted in again this November, it won't even be close.

Meditation On Our Times (With Thanks to 1 Corinthians 13)

This I know
that in the times we are living
love will triumph over hate
love does not provoke or take into account wrongs suffered
it is gentle, patient and slow to anger
love does not yell, scream, nag or demand
it bears all things, believes all things
hopes all things, endures all things
it is not jealous or arrogant
it encourages and looks for the best
and does not magnify one by putting down another
love unites and does not divide
it is honest while at the same time respectful
it does not rejoice in unrighteousness
but rejoices with the truth
This I know
that in the times we are living
love will triumph over hate
and change will only come through love
it is faith that will heal the great divide
and from faith, hope will spring forth to refresh our land
but of the three, faith, hope and love
the greatest of these - is love

Black Lives Do Matter, But The Organization's Goals Are Marxist

Let me start with 2 broad statements. (1) Everything is political. (2) Everything is spiritual. In other words, very few things happen by chance. Also, everything we see, read or hear comes through some type of lens and the people providing that information do so through their own political and spiritual bias. We are in a unique place in history because there are now so many sources of information. This has been both bad and good.

The bad is that a small group of powerful people and corporations, all far Left in their politics and spiritual beliefs, control most of the major sources of information. These include The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, BBC, NPR, Associated Press, Reuters, Google, Yahoo, Twitter, Apple, Snoops, Drudge Report and so on. They control both the discussion and where news is positioned on search engines.

They do not provide honest and balanced news coverage. They control MOST of the information the average American receives. They decide what gets talked about and what doesn't, what is important and what is not, what is true and what is false. They do this by how they construct headlines or edit a story and they will even lie if need be. And they do this by what views they allow on social media, who gets monitized, and who gets blocked or censored. The news feed you get on your phones or devices is not balanced. Most of it tilts Left at best.

The good news is that there are a lot of very intelligent and articulate Conservative commentators out there. From the group on the Daily Wire including Ben Sharipo, Michael Knowles and Andrew Klavan, to Victor David Hansen, Prager U, Candice Owens, Charlie Kirk and Jordan Peterson, plus dozens more, the Conservative view point is well presented and well laid out. You just have to look for it.

Take for example what President Trump has had to go through since the very hour he got elected. President Trump was seen rightly by the people controlling the media as an existential threat to their goals. He was not one of them, he knew how they operated and he threatened to expose them. His pro life, pro Israel and America First agenda went against their globalist Marists agenda.

There was a decision made by this group that from day one they would frame President Trump as not legitimate, to declare him a habitual liar, unqualified for the job, a racist, a Russian stooge and they were instructed never to give him "a win" or picture him in a positive light. This was all about having lost what they thought was the key to advancing their long range plans and to try to get it back as soon as they could. Failing impeachment the goal is now the November election.

They also had at their beck and call an army of social justice warriors who (and I saw this beginning the day that President Trump won) flooded social media with their views and harrased, threatened and bullied any one who expressed a positive view of President Trump or his policies.

Well, it mostly started as get rid of Trump but it has now morphed into an all out advancement toward Marxism, which has as it's agenda the destroying of society and the social order in order to rebuilt it into the Marxist utopia. This specifically means the destruction of the nuclear family, the silencing and then elimination of Christianity, the reviling and then rewriting of all American history, the transfer of all rights and means of production from the individual to the State.

Which leads me to discuss what is currently happening under the cover of Black Lives Matter. As I wrote in my last blog post - Cancel Culture - by itself the phrase Black Lives Matter is positive and expresses these truths; Blacks do get discriminated against in our society, for certain reasons not merely based on race they will get stopped and questioned far more than whites and there have been plenty of times where police act with excessive force or violence toward blacks. There is a lot of room for improvement on all counts and I believe most people agree with me on those statements. We can and need to learn and grow and to both see and treat all others as we would like to be treated ourselves.

There are factors that must be understood in that context. First. racism is not just a white problem. It's ugly head exists within every racial group toward those of other races. It is part of the human condition.

Second, throughout history the majority group or tribe with economic power will discriminate toward the minority group or tribe. Tribalism is still with us. It is not just a "white" problem.

Third, the great problem in our country today is not racism but a system that creates a poverty class that is hard to break out of and which often leaves those in that system without realistic hopes and dreams. People caught in that system are by a huge factor more likely to be poorly educated, unemployed, on drugs or in prison.

Fourth, the greatest cause of poverty by far is having children young and out of wedlock. In almost all cases, if a person is married before they have children and has a steady job their chances of being in poverty are very low. Men, to be able to learn how to be responsible men, need to have a strong father figure in their home. I have been told by many guys on my road tests that the biggest problem inner city teens have today is that they have no respect for their elders. That is a father problem.

This is the elephant in the room that cannot be discussed. You will get called racist if you try. And the main reason is because it is the result of Democrat led policies and a media that is controlled by Democrats. Before the Great Society programs of LBJ in the mid 1960's there was a very large black middle class. At that time only 15% of black families were single parent homes. Today 70 % of blacks are brought up in single parent homes. Single parent white households are now at 30%. I am told that a large factor to the rebellion occuring in the young white college educated world today are with males who had a father at home but that father was in many ways absent in the life of the boy.

Fifth, a man's sense of worth is tied into having a steady job or jobs that can provide for his family.

Sixth, statistically last year 10 unarmed blacks were killed (for whatever reason) by white policemen. During the same year 20 unarmed whites were (for whatever reason) killed by white policemen. Bad as that is there is not actually a plague of unarmed blacks getting shot by white policemen.

Seventh, (remember this is a poverty issue and not a race issue) in cities like New York, a person of color is 400 times more likely to commit a violent crime than a white person.

Eight, many police risk their lives everyday and everyday they are dealing with people in the bottom 10th of society. Day after day they get cursed at and abused and they see the worse of what man can do to man. A policeman always tries to be in a position of control but when they feel threatened it usually leads to a show of force. This is not a race issue. It is the fear aspect of human nature. It does not excuse bad actions but we need to be aware what the dynamics are.

Ninth, police unions (and unions usually donate to Democrats) make it very hard to get rid of bad police. Such was the case with the guy who killed George Floyd.

Tenth, there is nothing more racist than identity politics, but that is the game plan of the current Democrat Party. The attack on white this and white that, an evil white past and a present white guilt that cannot be released or even purged because of a person's race is an attack straight from the pit of hell. To me the term "white privilege" is full of political and racial meaning. Again, most large ethnic groups have stories that are different than the smaller ones. But in today's politics the demand is not just for awareness, it extends to things like reparations.  

So I can say yes to the idea that black lives matter but I cannot say yes to the organization that is Black Lives Matter.  If I do I am associating myself, not with an idea of healing racism but rather with a group that has a totally different agenda and which hides it's agenda under a mantra that cannot be criticized. 

The organization was founded by 3 community organizers. I saw one of the current leaders in an interview conducted a few years ago saying that they were all Marxist and well versed in how to obtain their goals. At least one of the woman is an LGBT activists as well. One of the original founding statements of the organization was that in American there is state sponsored violence toward blacks and the solution to that is to defund police departments. That has been one of their goals from the beginning.  Like all Marxists they want to deconstruct the family, the church, the government, our history and then rebuild it to the Marxist dream.

But there is another aspect to Black Lives Matter. Apart from being Marxist it is also tribal. The leaders are not looking to create a better melting pot. They ultimately want to separate the races and create steps toward segregation. Look for example at the attempt in Seattle to create a garden at the park in CHOP. It is for blacks only. At many colleges and universities there are now black only dorms. 

Shaun King, on of the current leaders of Black Lives Matter, just tweeted that not only should we be tearing down and removing statues of famous white leaders and renaming tens of thousands of buildings and schools but we also need to remove any depictions in statues or stain glass windows of a white Jesus and his white mother because that is considered "offensive" to blacks.

Now remember, there is a vital time event looming, the November elections. Remember, this has both political and spiritual ramifications. There were several Marxist groups, emboldened by how far Left the Democrat Party and the Main Stream Media have swung in the last 4 years, waiting for something to spark a Leftist revolt. And there was a large jobless base of angry people at the beginning of Summer, many hurting or ready to blow off steam because of the Covid 19 lockdowns, Presented to them was a visual of a heartless murder of a black man by a white policeman that perfectly fit into the white police hate black men narrative.

The radical groups, waiting for a trigger event, jumped into action and at the lead (because no one dares to criticize them) was the group called Black Lives Matter. But what was to happen was never really about the need for white police to treat black men better or for the need for whites to realize that they are actually more prejudiced toward blacks than they believe. There was released into this country a spirit of rebellion and anarchy, a spirit of fear, a spirit of hate, murder and greed. And at the head of those spirits is the spirit of antichrist. This does not mean that there were not a lot of people of good will who want to see an end to racism in America. But it must be realized what the actual goals of the leadership are and how this has all been working out in the present.

The main stream media has done everything in their power to limit showing what has been happening but the statistics of carnage to property, lives and now institutions has been staggering. And what has been the upshot? Gun sales have skyrocketed, even by people who never in their lives believed people should even own guns. Violence by blacks toward other blacks in many of the major cities in our country has doubled because police presence has pulled back. Every white person who works in a corporation suspects that they will have to endure even more racial and gender sensitivity training. 

And the average white person, who doesn't understand the politics and the spiritual dynamics, is asking this question. What do they want to get out of all this? And that's because not one has articulated the goals of the protests, or the marches, or the burnings, or the lootings, or the violence. The goal posts keep moving and the goals are not articulated because this is of course all about creating a new, utopian society.

The Left got a little, they got some more, and now they think they can get it all.

Can God still make all things work for good, so that out of this chaos there can come actual racial healing and forgiveness? Yes, He can and I believe He will. But the change in racial relations has to come through hearts being healed and transformed by the love of God through the power of the Holy Spirit, Remember, we are dealing with human nature, and human nature always resists what is being forced upon it.

I believe God has allowed the enemy to show his cards and to play his hand and although the chaos has not ended yet the spirit of the antichrist will soon be restrained for a time. Hearts throughout our nation that have been hurting, confused and fearful will pour out their cares upon the Lord and He in turn will radically fill, heal and change those hearts, and that healing will pour out like waves upon our society.
