It has been quite a
week. The Democrats have now seriously thinned down their candidates. Basically
we are down to two, Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden. Elizabeth Warren finally saw
the handwriting on the wall and pulled the plug.
Just a few days ago the
Biden campaign was floundering and on life support. Today it has found new
life. A number of what they call establishment middle-of-the-roaders have
endorsed him and jump started his bid.
What does this all mean
to Sanders? Well, it's not good. It is pretty clear the powers that be in the
Democrat party also saw some handwriting somewhere. They know Sanders has
absolutely no chance of ever winning a national election. This country will
never actually choose socialism. Socialism can only occur in this country by a
very bloody revolution and that is equally unlikely regardless of how many
millennials try to make it happen. Based on all that has occurred in the last
few days, it is obvious the Dems have picked Biden to be their standard bearer.
It is also obvious to me that many, if not most, of Sanders supporters
will probably sit this election out. That’s fine with me.
Some of you may recall a
few months ago I wrote in this column that the Republicans had the goods on
Biden but had hoped to hold off until he was for a certainty the Democrat
choice. The impeachment fiasco interfered with those plans. Biden and his
family were seriously harmed by revelations during those hearings and the mock
trial. Those revelations pale however to what is coming next. Biden and his
family are dirty and all the evidence proving that will soon be on full
display.
Also, in these past few
days Chuckie Schumer showed the world his true colors again. He stood on the
steps of the Supreme Court and threatened two sitting Supreme Court Judges by
name. He has since tried to walk it back to no avail. Like Trump said, if
Schumer was a Republican he would have already been arrested. His actions were
dangerous and irresponsible. A censure resolution has been introduced in the
Senate. I hope it gets passed. Schumer is an embarrassment to his party and to
this country.
The FISA Court is also
under investigation. Some very curious Senators want to know how unproven and
unverified evidence could have been acceptable by the court who then issued
warrants to spy on Americans. It is a little curious, isn’t it? A lot of people
were put in compromising positions because of this illegal act by the FBI and
the FISA court.
Some more bad news for
the Democrats but very good news for America is that over the next four years
President Trump will have the opportunity to appoint at least two new Supreme
Court Judges. He will name individuals who know how to read and understand
exactly what is written in our Constitution. He will be less inclined to appoint
based on quotas or gender or sexual preference. His appointments will be based
on what is best for the country. If Schumer is upset by judgements by the Court
now, imagine how he is going to feel when, instead of five to four decisions,
we will see more seven to two.
It occurs to me, as
tornadoes tear through middle Tennessee and a new virus tries to overtake the
world, that we have plenty of problems to deal with without spending so much
energy on political differences. We have a perfectly good President and an
election coming in a few months. When the voters in this country look out and
see what they have versus what the Democrats are proposing, they will make the
right decision.
