WHEN IS ENOUGH ENOUGH?

When is enough enough?

            Ever since the election of Donald Trump to be the 45th President of the United States there has been a complete negative biased campaign against him and his administration by politicians and journalists. The far left leaning press has manufactured every slanted, unfounded accusation and outright lie against the man who wants only “to make American great again.”

            Even many of those of Trumps own party is on board in an effort to sabotage his efforts to pass legislation that was once the hallmark of those of the Republican Party. The only thing that many of Republicans today have managed to do so far is talk without any results. Their ability to govern is negotiable.

            For the past seven years the Republicans promised to repeal and replace Obama Care with the idea of replacing it with real reform. Did they deliver? Not a way in the world! During those past seven years all they did was criticize (with good reason) the Democrats shoving a badly flawed piece of medical coverage legislation down the throats of the American people with the eventual outcome of socialized medicine. What the United Kingdom and Canada have as medical care is what Obama and the Democrats really want and they make no bones about it.

            Most recently Senator Chuck Schumer has admitted as much when he said on national television that the Democrats would be more than willing to take a look at the single server idea.

            But this is only a start in the attack against Trump. There is the continual exploration of that imaginary fairy in the sky regarding Russia. It seems the American people are sick of hearing many of the outlandish theories Trumps opponents keep throwing out. So, when is enough enough?

            It seems the biggest problems the President faces can be reduced to two; the first is “tweeking” and the second shooting from the hip. Both of these things attract criticism from both journalists and politicians. This isn’t because Trump is ignorant but rather that he is not a political person. It must be remembered that he entered office as an “outsider” and this is exactly what the American people wanted.

            Frankly United States citizens are fed up with politicians in general. It was hoped with the election of Donald Trump that the Republican Party would put on their adult boots and take the lead they promised. But the exact reverse seems to have happened. Promises previously made seem to have disappeared into thin air and no one has an answer other than blame the other guy.

            In addition to this is the lack of promoting all of the successes the Trump administration has been able to achieve. Employment is at an all time low, the stock market is continuingly going up, our military is making inroads in the battle against Isis and illegal immigration is constantly going down. These are just a few things that have been accomplished but you will never hear about them watching nightly news.

            Where are the statesmen? Whatever happened to the idea that the first priority of leadership was protecting and helping the citizens of this marvelous land?

            If there was ever a time for term limits now is the time. But since there are no term limits politicians find a permanent “home” in government. Once elected many politicians seem immune to working for the very people who sent them to office to begin with. The only time you hear from these folks is every two to four to six years when they revisit their home districts to celebrate the Fourth of July, Christmas and New Years. This is when they visit state fairs, barbecues and home town parades. Other than that they seem to spend time visiting foreign countries—usually with family members—in some sort of “fact finding trip” and arguing for more tax money.

            Why don’t these people settle down and attack the real problems that face our homeland? One of the biggest of these problems is public education which promoters of liberalism find so attractive. Why is political correctness more important than honesty? Why is someone labeled an enemy for voicing opposition to attacks by those who don’t want to bake a cake for homosexuals because of their own religious belief? Why are rioters permitted to destroy private property and shout down legitimate speakers who are invited to speak at some college or university? The list goes on and on and nobody seems alarmed.
