The last few years have been totally mind-boggling. Absolutely nothing has made sense from the number of genders and pronouns seeming to grow bigger every day to the fact that men could now play as women in sporting events. It was now acceptable to believe that men(?) could be pregnant and a tampon machine could be allowed in boys' locker rooms. Total madness has become the norm, especially in Hollywood with dimwitted stars helping their minor children transition into another gender while considering themselves self-righteously supportive instead of being responsible parents.
I could not understand why so many Americans seemed to be ignoring what was happening in the country. High inflation and gas prices; murderous crimes committed by illegal immigrants; global hostilities inviting the prospect of WWIII. Yet, this election continued to be driven only by rage against the former president and the danger of him winning. Trump derangement syndrome (TDS)was the sequel to Bush derangement syndrome (BDS) which dominated the George W. Bush years (2002-2008) but TDS was way more toxic and violent.
Although President Bush was vilified and even had a movie made that had him assassinated, he never was physically attacked. President Donald Trump had two attempts on his life and miraculously escaped death. In 2006, the film "Death of a President" included actual footage of George W. Bush being slain and comments were made by BDS Hollywood haters are cheering the fantasy. At several film award events, we could expect people like Rosie O'Donnell to shout "F **k Bush" to incite loud cheers from the elite crowd. There are plenty of videos on YouTube filled with the hateful screeds towards the 43 rd president. Then came Donald J. Trump, a man who had enjoyed a cozy relationship with these same haters when he was in show business.
Now he was in the political realm as a dreaded Republican and what was worse to them, he was totally independent and not beholden to any party boss. His campaign rhetoric echoed the right-wing agenda which threatened to dismantle the progressive strategic left-wing plot implemented by Barack Obama. When he won in 2016, they impeached him, then impeached him again to make sure he'd never run again. . In his second run to recapture the presidency, his enemies went all out to destroy him. Using lawfare, they had him arrested and tried on trumped up, fake charges. Then vile, vicious rhetoric calling him Hitler, Mussolini and the Devil incited the assassination attempts that nearly killed him.
After his historic win this past week, Harris supporters were screaming in anguish just as they were in 2016. Leftist women are going on sex strikes and shaving their heads to punish men for voting for misogynist Trump. I do not recall any McCain, Romney, Trump supporter displaying the same mental breakdown after the 2008, 2012 and 2020 GOP losses.. We just went on with our lives because our lives are not consumed with such an overt hatred for a Dem opponent.
For America to work, we must be united and consequently pool our resources, both political and spiritual, to combat the enemies that threaten our peace and security.
Most conservatives have had to deal with the division in our relationships with family and friends. I had been estranged by my Democratic family since 2020 but now we just don't talk about anything to do with politics. My children and grandchildren are all on the same page and we just keep the rest of the family in our prayers in the hope that their minds will be opened to reality.
It is time now to consider the reasons why TDS and BDS exist and how we can deal with it. For a long while, I simply thought these proponents were nutjobs, nimrods or just plain stupid. After much deliberation and research, I find that most are victims of a malicious cabal of leftist manipulators who've been in power since the early 1940's known as the Frankfurt School. These global Marxists came to the United States of America, the land of freedom for all and a perfectly vulnerable area to exploit and all they had to do was to get settled in American academia which welcomed the German scholars with open arms.
Why are so many TDS and BDS cultists in California, New York and Chicago? These are mainly well-educated graduates of the best universities and likely assume that they've learned the truth from their learned professors. Ha! If they only knew that they were just puppets in a grand plan to overthrow the traditional precepts that made this country so unique and powerful. I'll bet that the liberal students were never taught the precepts of Marxism that were filtered and sanitized through their agents and it is highly unlikely that they ever studied the Communist Manifesto or bothered to read Animal Farm.
The indoctrination of Marxism into modern curricula by leftwing academics has given entire generations a warped sense of entitlement from government largesse aka ‘cradle to grave' coverage without working for it. The very idea of individual achievement is verboten to these Marxists. Remember Obama saying, "you didn't build that" mentality?
Thanks to the internet and the videos and podcasts of citizen journalists now present an alternative to the lies and fake news spewed out in the mainstream media. Communist states do not allow private ownership (look it up) and the success of entrepreneurs like Elon Musk and others can no longer be denied. Eyes are being opened and those not inflicted with the dreaded hate syndromes need to wait patiently for their estranged loved ones to wake up and smell the delightful scent of a nation in recovery with prosperity and peace on sight.
It is time for the hatred and madness to end. Let us hope that when Trump safely gets installed in January, common sense will once again rule in this great nation and those celebs who swore they would leave if Trump won, will find peace far, far away.
