TRANSFER OF POWER

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.
