The Amazing Undo Function

As word processing software emerged for personal computers, developers introduced the revolutionary UNDO function, transforming how users interact with digital text. Now, with a simple keystroke, I can effortlessly correct any typing error, instantly erasing mistakes and maintaining the flow of my writing. This feature has become an indispensable tool for writers, editors, and professionals across various fields.

If only life were like that. Can you imagine if Trump could press a couple of pseudo buttons and Obama Care would go away? Another one of those sets of buttons, and the errors of Old Joe would be no more.

Even without that undo function, President Trump has made very large strides in undoing the fiasco of the open border. However, it will take decades to address many of the technical and emotional consequences. There is just no magic wand to wave that will make all the side problems generated, likely intentionally.

Of all that was done by Old Joe, the one that will be most difficult to reverse is the inflation. Think about it. If the prices all are lowered back, that would be deflationary. If through some means he managed to do it, it might even lead to a depression. In this case, the fix would be far worse than the problem.

The long-term solution is simple: provide good jobs by bringing exported jobs home, offer good, inexpensive energy sources, and stop giving jobs to those who do not belong here.

There are other tasks that need to be addressed as well. However, in every respect and at every point, the Democrats are doing all they can to obstruct progress. They are attempting to prevent low-cost fuel. They do everything possible to hinder the deportation of illegal immigrants. And, by the way, they are doing all they can to keep criminals lose on the streets. This certainly does not help the economy.

To be sure, any country that spends more than it receives in revenue will have inflation. It is the primary reason for inflation. It means somehow or some way, spending must be reduced. The best way to reduce spending, whether at home, in business, or in government, is to reduce waste. President Trump tried to do that. You remember the uproar that resulted? Yes. The Democrats didn’t like that either. Actually, there were a few Republicans who objected too. It would seem the desire for free money is bipartisan.

You want to decrease inflation, vote for decrease of waste.

If Only

In moments of passionate conviction, I long to broadcast my message from towering peaks, my voice echoing across landscapes and reaching countless ears. Though such grand proclamation remains impossible, I recognize the power of personal connection. By sharing the facts overlooked by the the thousands with a handful of individuals, my words ripple perhaps to the very borders of the nation. Each listener becomes a messenger, carrying the message forward, and gradually, my words spread as the wind, eventually achieving the same goal.

I’ve repeatedly heard the argument that consumers ultimately bear the cost of import fees. While this perspective is valid, it overlooks a critical economic issue: when foreign countries flood the market with underpriced goods, traditional trade protections become ineffective. The steel and aluminum industries serve as prime examples, where international competitors, particularly China, have systematically undermined domestic manufacturing by selling products at artificially low prices.

With our steel and aluminum production crippled, the US has become the subservient to China. Moreover, if we can’t make stee, we have become reliant on other sources such as China. It is an old trick which has been used by monopolies within the US, oil, steel, railways, etc.With our steel and aluminum production crippled, the US has become subservient to China.

Moreover, if we can’t make steel, we have become reliant on other sources such as China. It is an old trick which has been used by monopolies within the US, such as oil, steel, and railways.

If China decides to become hostile, even in a cold war way, we would be totally at their mercy. We would quickly run out of the materials we need for planes, ships, or even missiles. Under such a situation, we may as well lower Old Glory and raise the white flag of surrender. They could quickly put us back in the Stone Age.

In light of these obvious facts, maybe paying a little more now instead of paying with our freedom later. Some of our industries must be protected. If only I could make that clear to one and all.

Some individuals seem indifferent to the economic implications, which raises questions about the motivations of those ardently advocating for tariff reduction.

Why Pro Trump

When Trump announced his presidential run, I was skeptical. His character seemed questionable, and his pro-choice stance typically would have been enough to make me oppose him.

As I examined the candidates’ positions, my perspective gradually shifted. His resolute approach to border security particularly resonated with me, aligning closely with my own views. Among the contenders, only he and one other candidate shared my stance. Though Senator Cruz remained my preference, especially regarding his pro-life position, I found myself increasingly drawn to the alternative candidate’s platform.

Reflecting on Trump’s account of his personal experience, I found his explanation initially convincing, yet lingering skepticism persisted. His past behavior and language further undermined my trust. In retrospect, I often contemplate whether Ted Cruz might have been a more suitable presidential candidate. Ultimately, the full truth remains elusive, and we may never fully know.

In the face of a polarizing election, my initial choice felt stripped away. Confronted with Trump, a relatively unknown quantity, and Clinton, whose public persona was exhaustively familiar, I felt politically cornered. As the campaign unfolded, my perspective subtly shifted. Trump’s candidacy began to resonate more strongly, while the alternative grew less appealing. Though momentarily tempted to protest by writing in my own name, I ultimately found myself gravitating toward a clearer electoral stance.

During the election, I found myself strongly aligned with Trump’s rhetoric, yet I harbored deep reservations about his character and credibility.

Throughout my years of observation, I’ve consistently maintained that individuals advocating for pro-life positions tend to demonstrate greater authenticity and moral courage. In today’s complex social landscape, embracing a pro-choice stance has become a convenient and socially acceptable narrative, which I characterize as fundamentally endorsing a culture of termination. The genuine commitment to protecting innocent life requires a deeper ethical stance and personal conviction.

Trump’s unwavering commitment to the pro-life movement demonstrated a principled position that demanded respect. His apparent sincerity on this issue suggested a deeper integrity that could potentially extend to other aspects of his political platform. By taking a clear and potentially unpopular stance, he showed a willingness to stand by his convictions, which was noteworthy in the complex landscape of all the political discourse.

Looking back, it was clearly true. No other modern president can claim such close adherence to his promises. While he couldn’t completely follow them all, it is not for lack of effort, even to the point of pushing the Constitution to the very edge. Also, this was not without opposition, even from Republicans. Might I remind one and all of the number one rino giving the thumbs-down during the effort to withdraw Obama Care. (I was never a fan Sen. McCain, who was the only Republican member of the Keating five & should have gone to jail)

President Trump is the only modern day president who enforced immigration laws, which were already on the books. He did this though there are even Republicans who opposed his actions. This likely was one of the main reasons he was elected. The Republicans only paid lip service to it and the democrats openly refused to enforce those legal laws. During the primary, he and Cruz were the only two that spoke of enforcing the law. All the rest of the Republican candidates got all mushy mouthed when asked about it.

Trump is constantly referred to as Hitler, this in light of all he has done for Israelis. No other president, whether he have a R or D after his name has hired more women in higher positions. No other president, except maybe Reagan & Kennedy, has done more to help our economy. Few have hurt in all of these categories as Old Joe. (For this reason Old Joe does not deserve to be called president, or even by his last name. Better to forget it completely)

President Trump has made a believer out of me.

Country Clubbers, as Bad for the Economy as Democrats

Rush Limbaugh frequently critiqued the affluent, establishment-oriented wing of the Republican Party, referring to them as the “country club segment.” Many Republicans likely dismissed his characterization without fully comprehending its deeper implications. Moreover, they seem unaware of the significant and potentially detrimental impact their political and economic approaches could have on the broader national landscape, particularly in terms of financial policy and societal economic dynamics.

One of the big reasons we had problems stopping illegal immigration is because the illegal aliens drive the wages down drastically. I hope I don’t need to explain why that is so beneficial to rich Republicans; as well as rich Democrats too. Naturally, many of the rich Republicans had as much of a desire to open the borders as the Dems did.

Though I don’t know the reason, this group also seemed to be in favor of making the killing of unborn children legal. My best guess is that they didn’t want to lose elections and their power.

Donald Trump’s political rise disrupted traditional Republican Party dynamics, challenging the established country club elite by appealing directly to a broader base of supporters. His unconventional campaign and messaging resonated with voters beyond the typical Republican establishment, potentially attracting disillusioned Democrats and working-class constituents who felt overlooked by mainstream political figures. Trump’s ability to connect with a diverse range of voters fundamentally transformed the Republican Party’s, especially those who wanted to stop illegal immigration as well as the traditional power structure and electoral strategy.

As you might have noted, many of those country club crowd have left the Republican Party and began opposing the Republican Party and Trump. No one told me why but I think I have a good guess. You will likely have a good guess too when you realize the drastic decrease in inexpensive illegal labor.

Contradictions of the Liberals

Several years ago, I wrote a post about people being let across the border. You might think it was during the early years of Trump’s presidency, but it was earlier. Actually, I was speaking out against open borders even before Trump decided to run for president.

During the presidential campaign, the border policy debate revealed a surprising consensus among candidates. While Democrats generally supported more open immigration, many Republican contenders also showed varying degrees of support for less restrictive border policies. In the early stages of Trump’s initial campaign, Senator Ted Cruz stood out as a notable exception, consistently advocating for stricter border control. His principled stance resonated with voters who prioritized immigration enforcement. For this voter, Cruz and Trump were the only candidates worthy of support. I would have abstained from voting any others at all.

Apparently, I wasn’t the only one with that view. Near the last of that primary, Cruz was the only one who gave Trump any competition at all. The rest dropped out. Still, there were Republicans who continued to give Trump grief over illegal aliens, fighting for them from the “humanity” concept. However, to them, humanity had little or nothing to do with it. They wanted the lower illegal wages. It contradicted with the fighting by both the Democrats and the liberal Republican concept of minimum wages. To be sure, hiring illegal aliens is the easiest way around minimum wages. Those who ran hotels and restaurants commonly hired illegal aliens at a fraction of the minimum wage, a financial advantage for businesses (rino Republicans) To some degree, this is still true. The dems fight to keep wages down by encouraging illegal immigration while at the same time, fighting for ridiculously high minimum wages. This has two results. It squeezes rightful American citizens out of the job market while permitting the rich to hire low cost labor.

I very strongly disagree with minimum wages and allowing the employment of illegal aliens. I can at least understand it, as selfish and wrong as it it is. However, lately the liberals have started another contradiction. They fight to require vaccination, especially in schools while continuing to fight to allow diseased and infections aliens across the border without even checking for any disease such as AIDS, measles, TB, etc, etc, and so forth.

I have no clue why we haven’t had breakouts of various diseases when President Biden opened the borders and invited one and all with a public speech. And now, the pro vaccine people complain about a few cases of measles and say nothing of the disease infested flooding over the border. We should count ourselves fortunate that we haven’t had an outbreak of antibiotic-resistant tuberculosis. Or, perhaps something worse. We have dealt with measles, smallpox, and many other outbreaks throughout US history. When the border was opened, I had both concerns and curiosity about what diseases might have been permitted entry. Perhaps even a disease not yet seen inside our border.

To be sure, contradiction is the way of the Democrats. If you keep your eyes open, you’ll see them. Then again, there is none so blind as those who refuse to see, even that which is obvious.

Two Reasons, Same Decision

It appears that the President has decided to implement tariffs on imported steel and aluminum in order to protect the domestic industry and its workers. While the reasoning behind this decision is not entirely clear, the aim seems to be to support American jobs and businesses in these sectors.

Our strategic position is a matter of national security. In the event of war, ensuring access to critical resources like steel and aluminum is crucial for our ability to manufacture the tanks, planes, and other military equipment needed to prevail. Our past success in defeating Germany was largely due to our capacity for mass production of these vital assets. Maintaining this industrial capability is essential for safeguarding our nation’s defense.

Nonetheless, let’s put both these reasons aside for a moment. Instead, let’s examine the concept of a monopoly. The typical approach to establishing a monopoly is by aggressively lowering prices to drive all competitors out of the market.

If China had any desire to do such a thing to the US, it would never happen as long as the competition was industry to industry; steel factory against steel factory. However, when the Chinese government helps to finance Chinese steel factories, it makes it impossible for the American factories to compete.

Then, when the American plants cease to operate and the US no longer has skilled steel workers, China can charge whatever it wants. Moreover, if China decides to wage war against us, we will be completely at their mercy. The Chinese government is not known for its mercy.

Maintaining a strong steel and aluminum industry is not an option. It is absolutely essential; that is, unless we do not mind learning Chinese.

As for me, I prefer American English.

The Plans

When the dems lost the first election to Trump, they started making plans.

Plan A. Try to reverse the election, something they accused Trump of four years later.

Plan B. Impeach Trump. They used a number of false accusations and false documents as well as a ton of lies. Remember Russia, Russia, Russia, which is now a proven hoax started by Ms. Clinton and her friends in the FBI and intelligence agencies. This had one huge hole in it. Even if it succeeded, Pence would have done well, though I suspect he would not have done nearly as well with the border.

Plan C. Same as Plan B with a slight variation. This plan really fell apart after the last election. It resulted in a huge black mark against Old Joe, the FBI and all the dems. Everyone now knows now that it was another contrived plot, likely instigated in the planning rooms of the dems. Some of those in the crowd we now know to be FBI resources, likely the real instigators.

Plan D. Initiate one prosecution case after the next. Oh, and by the way, this absolutely included the high priority search of Mrs. Trumps underwear drawer. One by one, all of these cases fell apart as they were never on solid ground to begin with. I am sure the one conviction will be overturned when it reaches the Supreme Court… Or perhaps before. Of all the cases, it had the least real foundation.

Plan E. Well, I think they are still working on this one. Meanwhile, the party is in a shambles as well as their publicly department, also known as the main media. Meanwhile, the world has suffered a major pandemic originated by Fauci and enhanced by the dems and social media. Old Joe engineered a disaster while retreating from Afghanistan. As if that is not enough, two new major conflicts as a result of Old Joe’s foreign policies, specifically his funding of Russia and Iran. Oh yes, let’s not forget the embolding of China. After all that…. Well, not many will be able to come up with something that’s workable. However, I have confidence in them. Someone will come along and suggest just the right deceit, an outlandish enough lie with just the right idealism and half the voters in the country will fall for it. Of course there will be an element of truth in it, just enough to sell it. After all, it is the way Satan has worked since the Garden of Eden.

Who Cares?

If I may, I would like to subtitle this Ignorance and Apathy.

Eons ago, a little exaggerated, I asked a programmer if he could teach me a little bit about Algol, a high level, structured programing language. He became thoughtful. He said that it would be difficult to do that. He said that in order to learn one part of the language, I would have to learn another part first. In order to understand that part, I would have to learn the other part first. It seems, in order to learn it, I would have to learn it all at once.

Since that day, I have been trained and I am very proficient at it. As I look back over what the programmer said, he was right. If I were to teach the language, I would have to teach it kind of all at once. I sort of guess that is why not too many people use Algol for programming. On the other hand, it is a very powerful language. I have heard that some people can almost write the whole body of the program in one line. Well, I must admit I am not that good but I can see how others could.

So. Here I am, I’ve written two big paragraphs and neither is about my subject matter. The reason is this. The subject is somewhat like Algol. I am having difficulty knowing where to start. There are 3 different places I need to start first. In order for me to start at point 1, I need to say some things about 2 and 3. In order to start at point 3, I need to say some things about 1 and 2. The word ‘conundrum’ does come to mind.

Let’s start with what you know, the little story where the old professor tells one of his students, “The problem with this world is that the youth is ignorant and apathetic.”

The young student shrugs and replies, “I don’t know and I don’t care.”

Okay. Ha, ha. Funny. I suspect you’ve heard it before. I’ve heard it a few times too. I do hope you liked it if it was the first time you heard it.

As with most of us conservatives, I have been trying to categorize democrats. I don’t know. It would seem that most fall into one of three categories. 1] The ignorant. 2] The Apathetic. 3] Both.

There are those that believed Old Joe was not feeble. There are those who didn’t care. Then there were those that didn’t know and didn’t care.

I suppose my categorizations might not be totally right. There might be those who might say, “Who cares?” There are those who do take that attitude, you know.

You look at the border. Some see the the rush of aliens across and don’t care. Some don’t believe there is a danger from the aliens. Some are completely oblivious to all the danger it causes.

This is of course, in spite of all the rapes and human trafficking that is going on. This in spite of the abuse of children that is happening. They turn their heads and pretend they know not of it.

When Old Joe gave the order begin the retreat in Afghanistan, some didn’t care about the deaths that resulted and the deserting of American citizens and friends left behind to fend for themselves.

We know that our women’s rights group care about women, but in this case, they pulled their heads in like the proverbial turtle and kept their noisy yaps zipped. This of course resulted in the torture and death of women that we liberated, befriended and educated. You can make up your mind. Were they unaware or were they apathetic. Or, on the other hand, could it be because the leadership of the dems told them to hold their complaints.

The dems complain, very loudly I might say, that Trump is apathetic to the poor aliens that are just seeking a better life. In truth, they were the ones apathetic to those that were killed or raped on the way to the US. Was it that they were ignorant to the criminal elements making their fortunes off of the pain and suffering of the aliens.

Could it be that the dems are completely ignorant to the death from the drugs made by the Chinese and distributed by the cartels. or is that they just don’t care.

When Obama pulled our forces out of Iraq, over a million were killed. Most if those tortured and killed called themselves Christian. Then when the dems were told, they said, “I don’t care!” Well, I guess some said, “I don’t believe it,” even though it was in the news for days. Now, that is apathy.

Before they start complaining about Trump being apathetic, I think it is about time to take a good look at the deaths and suffering in their own history. It’s time they look around and see what they are doing. It is time for them to stop being drastically apathetic.

It is time for them to stop saying, “I don’t care.”

Unseemly?

I saw the interview of Trump by Kristen Welker this morning on CBS. I noticed she liked to answer the question many times before asking it. To me that seems unseemly, or improper, if you will. To keep the post reasonably short, I will give one example, though I could give at least a dozen.

She could have just asked, “Are you going to insist that you really won the 2020 election?” Instead, she said something to the effect, Everyone knows you lost the 2020 election, so are you going to admit that you lost the 2020 election to help unite the country?

Though it was a horribly biased and badly biased question, Trump came up with an excellent reply. The country is divided now and who’s the president now. I think Welker realized Trump got the better of her there, but I must admit, she went right back to her question, though she must have realized that Trump got the better of her on that question. It reminds me of the adage that a lawyer should never ask the witness the question if he knows not the answer.

Nonetheless, she couldn’t leave it alone when she asked, if the dems won the 2020 election by cheating, why didn’t they win the 2024 election by cheating?

Trump casually replied, “Because I won by too much.”

To some degree, I believe that is true. However, let me add 2 more things to the mix. Even with over a billion dollars, Kamala was unable to purchase the election, regardless of the method. Might I also add that the media, like Welker, like TV and radio stations provided more campaigning in kind in favor of Kamala; this without conscience. Trump still won the electoral college and the popular vote.

As a parting note, that must have really irked the dems. No one of them were able to use that saying they have used in the last 3 elections the Republicans won. Back then, you could hardly turn on a TV without hearing that complaint that they should do away with the unfair electoral college. Strange you don’t much hear a word about Trump winning both ways. Do I detect a little embarrassment? Just maybe there was a mass embarrassment there, I mean, as I said, they don’t like to mention it. If they do like to talk about it, why haven’t I heard one liberal member of the media say a thing about it.

I think the instructions have been distributed, “Do not mention the electoral college. Don’t even hint about the popular vote.”

Listening and Talking

In a general since, people have been suggesting the reason the dems lost the presidency as well as so many other races is because they didn’t listen to the voters. Certainly, I must agree with them, but it doesn’t stop there.

To a major degree they didn’t even speak to the voters. Kamala especially refused to say anything that she would do. Then on the other hand, had she said what she planned to do, I suspect it would come out even worse for it.

Also, they came out with instructions. They told the Blacks and the Hispanic that they better vote democrat. They told the union workers to vote democrat. Moreover, they were trying to tell everyone what to think, what to send in messages and such. They said, you better watch what you say or we will come after you.

Maybe Black people were tired of voting democrat and yet being treated as step-children. Maybe the union people were tire of voting democrat and seeing all their high paying jobs find their way into Mexico & China. Maybe they were starting to say among themselves we don’t need that anymore.

On a somewhat related note: Many say that Kamala would have done much better had she had 150 days to run her campaign. Actually, it was quite the opposite. Every day of the campaign Kamala’s numbers went down. Had she had 50 more days, she would have done far worse. It would have given the voters more time to realize just how bad of a president she would make. Where this would be most notable would have been in early in voting. Had people who voted early the first chance the got, they would have had a better look at Kamala. They might have even voted for Trump.

On the other hand, if it was 50 days less, Kamala might have benefited from not being so well known.
