Where to begin??? This is a fantastic day in America I tell ya.
I don't want to be TOO toxic and rub it in, or be insulting etc. But the left is pretty toxic and insulting pretty effortlessly, on the daily. PLUS Trump JUST won. So I mean, I am going to say how I feel at this point in time.
I am not saying Trump is like, the perfect candidate. I do like him a lot though. Combine this with how disconnected and ignorant Kamala and the Democrats are, voting for Trump was an absolute no brainer.
The Republicans are way more fundamentally sound than the Democrats. Modern day Democrats see EVERYTHING from an identity politics perspective, and a perspective of luxury. This is just not going to be an effective way to get votes or trust.
It is said that Americans have it SOOOOO good. Americans have zero room for complaining or whatever because we have houses, infrastructure, power, money etc.
This might be true but I don't think America is a place of sunshine and rainbows that everyone thinks it is. If you believe so, again, I believe this is an opinion granted from living in an upper middle class or wealthy environment.
America DOES have it pretty good. But let's compare America to lottery winners for example. It's common knowledge that lottery winners often can go broke extremely fast despite their newfound riches. They go broke by helping friends or family heck or even the needy. This sounds a lot like Democrats immigration policies, overseas war aid, and just their spending habits overall. America is not invincible. These habits can bite us HARD.
I'm not against helping other countries, or being helpful as possible in the world. But what is the harm in maintaining our country so we are better capable of helping these countries? If America is on the road crumbling, it is flat out stupid to be infinitely helpful to everyone reaching their hands out.
How do people get sick? By not taking care of THEMSELVES. Overextending, not resting, not eating, worrying about everything else and assuming your body can handle it. Call it selfish, I guess that's one way to look at it. But another way to look at is well, survival. The world is not sunshine and rainbows man.
Also, I don't see the big deal in trying to literally make America great. America is ok, but I can't say it's GREAT. America is not only supposed to be a destination for people to live a better life, but it's also supposed to be an EXAMPLE for other nations. I mean, maybe that's kind of arrogant but I don't think that's too outrageous of a statement. If America is on the road to crumbling, which I believe it potentially is, what example is that setting? If America wants to be a leader in the world, and we have NUTTY homelessness problem, drug problems, a terrible economy etc, I mean, how can we even continue to expect people to like, actually follow or take advice or aid or whatever.
It's only four more years of Trump, for all those who hate the orange man soooooo bad. I don't think it's an awful thing to have an America first president for a bit.
Democrats love to try to be arm chair psychologists. They love to judge and smugly call everyone on the right just a bunch of hateful bigots. I guess if I had literally nothing better to do than be wealthy and look out on the world on my balcony, I might be the same. So in a way, I feel bad for them. They don't have a clue what reality is like. They cling to wanting to spread good vibes and astrology or something. They want Americans to be like, these holy perfectly kind at all times creatures, but pretty much every other country in the world does not have this obligation for some reason.
The average Republican seems where more reality based, and fundamentally more logical. Period.
I don't really care about 'the wall' down south that much, although I am mostly for it. I think that whole topic shows the fundamental difference in they way the right and left think.
The left has NEVER EVER presented a legit argument as to why a wall is actually a bad idea. All they say is 'they can climb over it or tunnel under, duh.'
Ok???
Why do people bother putting up fences around their homes? Why do we have a country in the first place?
A wall would be a first, ground level, base level obvious choice in defending our border. Nobody has ever claimed that a wall is impervious or un-crossable. But if we are being serious it would probably help a little! After a wall is built, we can perhaps address other avenues that illegal immigrants will try.
Again, I am not like CRAZY about this wall, I am really just pointing out how silly the left's mindset can be at times.
The left is too busy overthinking and judging everyone that they can't see the obvious fundamental choice on certain topics.
Since Kamala lost, all I have heard them say is how awful Trump voters are, but they haven't once mentioned that maybe Kamala was simply not a great candidate.
I am sure there is more I can rant about, but yeah. I don't know. I am so glad Trump won. Trump and the right ACTUALLY love America, I'm pretty confident Kamala and the left hate most of America.
I don't think Trump will be this magical amazing savior that will transform the country that dramatically for the better, there has never been a president that has done so. But I think he'll do a much better job than Kamala. Kamala would have made things much much worse.
