Biden's Magic Wand

So old Joe Biden is going to solve our plague problem. He can not cure COVID any faster than the Trump team is trying, with scientists and pharmaceutical research progressing at its own pace. Biden can not conjure a vaccine. What he would have done was keep our borders open to avoid that "xenophobia" and that likely would have killed many more Americans. What he will do is issue national mandates of questionable Constitutionality and limited effectiveness and national shutdowns even in areas where COVID has not afflicted very many Americans. Biden will also hire and unionize an army of "contact tracers" which will bring the TSA experience inside your home, raise your taxes to pay for all these new government workers with lifetime jobs who will remain on the Federal payroll long after the virus is vanquished, and not slow the spread of the Coronavirus an iota, as all the tracing they do is done retrospectively and can not deter someone catching the virus going forward. Either effective treatments, herd immunity after a lot more deaths, and/or a vaccine will emerge, but I have more faith that Trump will bring treatments and a potetial cure to the market sooner than regulation king Biden who would rather see a host of new unionized Democrat voters in his contact tracing army than the elimination of the disease.

Sisyphus and Atlas

I am much like Sisyphus with my world tumbling down, not Atlas, as at this point, I feel lucky to be holding myself up as the world collapses around me. The weight of the world is far too much for anybody, no Atlas can save our bacon. We are tasked with the impossible as the boulder is heavier each day and an avalanche is starting.

Enmity and Scorn

Those that hate Donald Trump do not just hate our President, they despise those of us that support him, and our nation as it was founded. They talk a lot of smack about how we want to return the nation to slavery, apparently forgetting that it was the REPUBLICAN Lincoln that ended that peculiar (and disgusting) institution, while the Democrats supported the Southern Confederacy, formed the KU Klux Klan, and imposed the Jim Crow laws. No, Mr. Biden, we do not want to see black people "back in chains" as you once declared. We want to see every American with increased opportunity and prosperity. It is your side that hates folks and is trying to manacle us to socialism!

Not a Chance

Police are now supposed to let black felons shoot or stab them, because if they defend themselves with the necessary force to save their own lives, cities will burn. The same standard applies to business owners as was illustrated by the barkeeper in Nebraska who was maliciously prosecuted after he had to kill a George Floyd rioter who attacked him and ultimately committed suicide after he was indicted for protecting himself. The message is clear. When the thugs come for you, even if you are a cop, just lay down because nobody has your back.

Fracking and Packing

For several years, Democrats including old Joe Biden have pledged to end hydraulic fracturing as a means of domestically producing oil in the United States. Biden even stated that as an eventual goal during the final Presidential debate. Now, that the former Vice President sees that position costing him votes, Biden is backing away from his promised ban on fracking. He was either lying then when he said he WOULD BAN fracking or now, when he says he won't. He can not have it both ways. Old Joe is also declaring his position on packing the United States Supreme Court. If he is not willing to state that he will not add to the number of justices on the nation's highest court, he is tacitly admitting his plan to pack the court.

Not America Only

President Trump is the most "America First" leader of my lifetime, but he is not an America Only leader. Trump recognizes that only when we are the military and economic superpower can we vouchsafe liberty around the world. If we are not the big dog, we are subject to be challenged by those who would do evil to Americans and attack freedom across the globe. Particularism is not bad when its implementation advances the general welfare of all humanity.

Gun Control Fantasy

The Democrats should they steal victory, intend to gut our gun rights. Let's take a look at how good things are working in the US cities with the strictist gun control. In New York City and Chicago, it is nearly impossible for a private citizen to secure a permit to legally carry a gun, so naturally these cities should have little crime and almost no murder. In point of fact, these cities have huge crime rates and frightening levels of homocide. Restricting the access of the law-abiding to firearms means that outside of law enforcement only lawbreakers will have guns.
