Ever since the election we
have heard the talking heads refer to the “transfer of power.” I have a
different view. The power has never changed hands, only the leadership has
changed. The power is now and has been in the hands of the people. Our simple
job is to make sure it is used wisely. We change out our “leaders” with every
election. But the power stays where it belongs, in the hands of the people.
Trump is in and has a
Republican Senate. That should bode well for Republicans, and the whole
country. With cooperation and intelligence, this country should prosper and
move ahead. But, will it? Will they work together or will they just play
politics? That is the question. The stock market seems to be happy with Trump,
but will that last? Who knows?
Here's what I believe. We,
the people, have a rather unique opportunity to prosper and move ahead. We have
to hold these people's feet to the fire. We need to recognize our commitments
to allies and not let them down. I trust Trump to handle that well. But, at the
same time, we need to stay out of affairs that are none of our business. Too
often we seem to inflict ourselves on others. There is no future in that.
My thoughts. Let us take
advantage of the opportunity we have to move ahead. Any rhinos in the Senate,
if they are not on board, should be shown the door. We are living in a serious
time and we had best take care. It is just too dangerous not to.
We have Trump at the right
time. He knows what has to be done and I believe he will do it. Weenie liberals
just go sit in the corner and let the adults get the job done.
