A Feeling of Hopelessness and a Bleak Future

I must admit that I am having a very hard time coming to grips with the apparent result of the United States Presidential election.  For over 75,000,000 people to vote for a candidate who is so obviously ill is more than difficult for me to understand, especially when I consider what has occurred in the United States over the last four years and how those events have been examined.

Before I get more involved in explaining how I think this calamity happened, I would like to make a prediction, and it is this: subsequent revelations will reveal that Donald Trump did, in fact, win the 2020 presidential election.  The problem he faces is that the Democratic Party election fraud will take too long to confirm and the various Democrat-controlled states will, as quickly as possible, ratify/certify the results and confirm the dithering Democrat Party presidential nominee as the next President of the United States.   The Presidential mantle will pass initially to Biden but, practically speaking, the real recipient of the most powerful political office in the world will at some point in the next four years, be handed to an unqualified woman with a hideous laugh who could never in one hundred years be elected President of the United States on her own.  This sad state of affairs will probably occur before evidence of the election “fix” is uncovered.  The fault will be found in the huge number of ballots that were mailed in, and computer calculations of the mail-in ballots.

Among his many qualities of leadership, President Trump has keen instincts.  He was vilified by the majority of media outlets when he accused the Democrats of spying on his campaign.  He was absolutely right, and the dishonest members of the electronic and print media were shown to be in the tank for their Democrat Party masters.  I believe his allegation of widespread voter fraud in this election will ultimately be proven to be true and when that occurs, the ramifications could be, to say the least, unpleasant.

The reason I make this prediction is that the Democrat Party in the United States has a history of voter fraud and criminal interference in elections.  It happened in Texas thanks to the Lyndon Johnson machine, which delivered the 1960 Presidential election to John Kennedy; Lyndon was helped a great deal by the Richard Daley machine in Chicago.  There are other examples.  Democrats cheat and when they do not get their way, their response is to riot, burn, loot and in general, create mayhem.  Spoiled brats and petulant children are descriptors that quickly come to mind.

For 75 million people to support an obviously flawed candidate, backed up by an unqualified woman, is really hard to understand.  Yet, look at some of the Democrats who got re-elected to the House of Representatives:  Adam Schiff, a bare-faced pathological liar who tried to make a name for himself by advancing outrageous, untrue allegations against a sitting president;  Schiff, that very creepy and dislikable fellow, has his eye on the California Senate seat when Diane Feinstein finally goes away or Kamala becomes Vice-President; Maxine Waters, a Black Congresswoman (we are told we must capitalize the ”B” in Black from now on for reasons I am having difficulty understanding but is but another example of runaway “wokeness”) from California who advocated impeaching President Trump even before he was sworn into office and advocated for her supporters to harass Republicans where ever they found them.  That nonsense was supported by a bird-brain Congressman from Texas named Al Green.  From what I can tell, advocating the impeachment of the President and appearing on the “View” is Waters’ only accomplishment as an elected official other than becoming incredibly wealthy while her constituents remain poor as church mice, and   Jerold Nadler, a New York Congressman who orchestrated the misguided impeachment of President Trump.  Nadler is if you pay any attention to politics in the United States, a dullard who has been at the government trough for far too long.  Who are the people who consistently return people like Nadler to positions of authority?  I could go on and on and on. One just has to wonder what the average IQ is of those who continue to vote these pathetic, unqualified people to office.

One advantage citizens have of watching these various Congressional and Senate hearings on television is that we get to see and assess for ourselves the quality of the individuals holding elected office. With the exception of a small minority, the bar for quality continues to be far too low.  It is really sad to see a wonderful country like the United States being subjected to the likes of those I have mentioned and too many others I could easily name in both political parties, but in particular, the disingenuous members of the Democrat Party.

Immediately following Donald Trump’s announcement that he was running for President of the United States representing the Republican Party, the entire United States media began to cover his every move.  To them, he was an oddity, a sideshow and they gave him tremendous air time.  The media wasn’t worried; Hillary Clinton was going to be the next president, but this oddball guy from New York who was rough and gruff and attracted large crowds was newsworthy.  They used Donald Trump for their own benefit and lo’ and behold, he surprised everyone when the “deplorables” in the United States turned Hillary Clinton aside.  In hindsight, that was not all that hard to do as Ms. Clinton was an awful candidate and more than easy to dislike.  And she has not changed in the last four years. 

Now, surprise, surprise the so-called mainstream media helped engineer the biggest political upset in a century.  They were complicit in getting Donald Trump elected to the presidency of the United States.  What had they done?  That was not scripted to happen.  He was only supposed to be a foil–a stooge—to go a few rounds with Hillary and then take a dive.  Donald Trump surprised all but a few reporters at Fox News, Conservative radio hosts, and over sixty million fellow citizens.

Once reality set in after the 2016 election, the big-boy media types decided to bring President Trump down and how they did it was irrelevant. Cheating, lying, false stories, despicable allegations by slimy politicians and talking heads were all acceptable.  Hell, even the FBI and the CIA were recruited to do what they could to manufacture evidence that was leaked to the media in an effort to discredit a sitting president.  What this revealed was a government infiltrated by evil people who let it be known via emails that were uncovered, they would use their positions of authority to do whatever it took to destroy Donald Trump and his presidency!

A deputy Attorney General, who I believe was part of the anti-Trump cabal from day one, appointed a special prosecutor to investigate whether or not Donald Trump colluded with the Russians to affect the outcome of the 2016 Presidential Election. The investigators were rabid, ultra left-wing, biased Democrat-sympathetic lawyers who spent over two years and about $50,000,000 to find absolutely nothing.  In fact, when Mr. Mueller of the Mueller Report fame gave evidence to a Congressional committee, it was more than evident that he was suffering from the same malady that is now present in the cognitive abilities of the President-Elect.  Mueller didn’t even understand, nor could he coherently explain nor defend, the content of his report.

The Mueller investigation was a farce, an outrage, and a crime on the American people.

Almost one day after President Trump was exonerated, a “whistleblower” came forward to announce that he witnessed an improper phone call between President Trump and the newly elected President of Ukraine.    There was, however, a transcript of the call which the Democrats, led by the despicable Adam Schiff, used as a basis to impeach the President.  The entire proceedings in the House of Representatives were, in a word, pathetic–a total farce. However, the mainstream media and their unlikeable on-air windbags grabbed onto this farce and gave these proceedings 24/7 coverage.  They didn’t care if Schiff’s/ Nadler’s allegations were true or not. This gave them the opportunity to undo what they had inadvertently helped to create.  Their dishonest reporting was their mea culpa for their initial coverage of Donald Trump.

Of course, President Trump was found guilty by a vote along party lines, but at the follow-up Senate trial, he was, and rightfully so, acquitted.

While all of this traitorous nonsense was going on, President Trump continued to work for those who had elected him and every other American.  He cut taxes, he stopped illegal immigration at the southern border, he got rid of cumbersome, bureaucratic regulations which resulted in common sense things getting done quickly. He made the United States energy independent by opening up federal land to exploration and once again allowing fracking and the mining of clean coal.  He held the feet of NATO members to the fire and shamed them into living up to the financial commitments they had ignored for years (Canada being one of the main offenders) and he pulled out of climate change boondoggles that harmed U.S. working families. And most importantly, after all others had failed miserably, he was the architect of a possible peace agreement in the Middle East that finally recognized the right of Israel to exist.  These are just a few of the things President Trump accomplished while being harassed daily throughout his tenure by members of the Democratic Party and their media whores.  One can only speculate what this gifted fellow could have accomplished with but a modicum of cooperation from the Democrats.

In fact, and in the face of never-ending opposition, President Trump really did accomplish more in three-and-a-half years than the pathetic Obama/Biden tandem did in eight.  And over 75,000,000 supposedly thinking persons voted the man out of office.  Really quite hard for me to believe.

So now the United States faces four years of a guy leading their country who is obviously ill.  This man with diminishing cognitive abilities will be called upon to make decisions that impact the world and do so daily.  What has the United States done to itself?  They had a leader who was an alpha male. Yes, he was rough around the edges, a New York City mega property developer, but a lad who clearly had the best interests of his people at heart.  A guy who donated his salary to charity and unlike all of the others I have named in this blog, he had no desire to enrich himself on the backs of the people he represented.  How refreshing was that to see?

One last thing that really troubles me.  It did not seem to matter a hoot to the mainstream media, or the Democratic Party, that several members of the Biden family, including Joe Biden, were corrupt.  There was plenty of evidence to show that Biden, his brother and his druggy kid all benefited from utilizing Joe Biden’s role as Vice President of the United States (and for a few years after his departure) to make millions of dollars from China and other foreign powers.  Apparently, nobody, at least 75,000,000 people, gave a damn that the guy they were voting for was a self-indulgent crook.

God bless the United States of America. During the next four years, I am confident they will surely need it.

    Rod I definitely share your concerns and viewpoints. Very well stated. Unfortunately, the Trump haters will never bother to read this. Best to you and your family. Thanks for your insight. Take care my friend.

      Hello Larry:
      Thank you for taking the time to read my blog. Some positive things are beginning to happen in the US in regard to election cheating. Whether or not the Courts have the guts to do the right thing is another matter. I think they know that if they enforce the law, the left will riot so most of these political appointees will probably turtle.
      Very nice to hear from you and I send my best.

    Exactly! You’ve articulated perfectly the sentiments of 75 million American citizens who know, from the massive amount of evidence and testimonials, that this election was rigged. Perhaps the only possibility you left out is that even Kamala Harris, in the event that Joe Biden is incapable of leading, will not run the country either, but rather, she will have her puppet strings pulled by the Wizard of Obama, who hiding behind a curtain, will continue to direct the policies and steer the decisions according to his leanings. He actually eluded to this possibility when he expressed, on the Stephen Colbert Show, his desire for a third term, that would involve a front man for himself while he directed from the comfort of his basement.
    There are millions of citizens who are still praying that the corruption, fraud, cheating, manipulation, and lies will be brought to light so that we can trust in a fair and honest election and feel safe in a truly democratic republic.
    Thank you for expressing your well thought out views.
    Keep praying for truth and justice!

      Good morning Susan:
      I am pleased you like my blog. Putting my thoughts down in writing is a tonic for me.
      What is happening in the US is more than scary and could very well result in violence. In fact, were the shoe on the other foot, the supporters of the Democratic Party would already be rioting. That is what they do best, other than supporting every “woke” cause they can dream up.
      I hope the US Courts will give the supporters of President Trump a fair hearing. If they punt, their credibility will be forever lost.
      I am delighted to know that there are people like you out there who absolutely refuse to drink the left’s Kool-Aid.
      Kindest regards,
      Rod

    Hi Rod, waited for this one, but knew it was coming. I agree wholeheartedly. The Democrats and the media tortured President Trump and his family for five years. Most people would have folded but as you stated he accomplished more in four years than Obama and Biden in eight. I knew when Biden selected Harris as his running mate it wasn’t about Biden. It was about having the first woman as president. If “Crooked Hillary “ ( sorry Hillary, you know which one I mean) couldn’t do it we’ll use someone to let us in the back door. Slow Joe. He’ll never survive the rigours of the Office. Thanks Rod.

      Hi Ron:
      I appreciate you taking the time to respond to my blog and your support of the position I advanced.
      If subsequent events show that the election was stolen, the result will, I am afraid, be more than unpleasant.
      However, if the Supreme Court of the United States were to reverse enough votes to show President Trump won the election, there is no doubt in my mind that the left wing anarchists will riot, loot and burn. That’s their game. If what I predict occurs, the lawlessness should be met by overpowering force. That is the only thing these clowns understand.
      Again, thank you for your interest in my ranting and my raving.
      The best,
      Rod

    Thanks Rod for recognizing the results of good works and deeds in a man and not how he talks or dresses. This is how we were taught before the PC police came along with their shallow values.

      Hi Billy:
      Canadians can only dream of having a business like, tough, common sense leader in the form of President Trump. Sadly, an overwhelming percentage of our population are anti-Trump but that is not really surprising because, like the US, our entire print and electronic media is ultra liberal and they go out of their way to bash conservative ideas at every turn.
      It seems to me, that the Washington “swamp” is rapidly re-filling given Biden’s nominees to date.
      Swing easy and keep your head steady.
      The best,
      Rod

    So sad, that we have developed a system of one party deference by our national media who most Americans depend on. With mainstream media holding such great power, it is difficult to imagine how we can overcome the injustice to American Conservatives. With financial backing of social media and banking, our obstacles are even more difficult to overcome. Sorry, that we have a Justice Department who has no conception of the meaning of justice.

      Hello Jim:
      I agree with every word in your reply to my blog.
      It seems incredible to me that the weird and creepy CEO’s of big tech are allowed to have the power they have and it appears nothing is being done about it!
      I note, however, that Zucker’s job at CNN is on the line. Recent recordings of his meetings with his people clearly show what a total left wing ideolog this fellow really is. CNN no longer reports the news, they shape it to their own political leanings. Ted Turner must be more than upset with what his creation has become. Perhaps the media pendulum will start back toward the middle.
      I very much appreciate receiving your most thoughtful comments.
      Sincerely,
      Rod

    This will by far the biggest test for the Supreme Court of the United States to rule on who won this 2020 election.

      Dear C. Pfenninger:
      I absolutely agree. But do you think they have the guts to do something that will cause the left to riot, loot and burn?
      Mentioning the Court, the media is constantly pointing out how conservative Republican appointments to the Court are but no-one says a word about the ultra left wing ladies on the Court who seldom, if ever, side with the conservatives, regardless of the issue.
      Recent revelations make it clear that the 2020 election was compromised. It may very well be that the Supreme Court of the United States will be forced to adjudicate the matter, whether they want to or not. Their credibility, now and in the future is at stake.
      The best,

    You have written another excellent article.
    The word that continues to enter my mind is Hypocrisy!
    President Trump did far more for all Americans in four years than Obama & Sleepy Joe did in eight. There is no comparison.
    You listed some of Trump’s accomplishments & as you know there are many more.
    The amazing thing is he accomplished all this while dragging the entire Washington establishment down the field on his back.
    I have always said, “We need a good business man in the white house not a politician! Trump was that man.
    I put Trump right up their with President Washington, Jefferson & Lincoln.
    Trump did his best to clean out the Swamp.
    I & many other Americans sincerely believe fraud played a major role in the outcome.
    Sleepy Joe is filling his cabinet with proven swamp dwellers that will try their best to push their liberal agenda down our throats.
    All that our founding fathers put in place & the blood that has been shed for these values is at stake.

      Thank you for taking the time to comment on my blog.
      These are frustrating times. The ultraleft media in both our countries continue to advance a false narrative in regard to an election where all evidence points directly at fraud. However, they do their utmost to ignore facts and treat those with opposing views with distain.
      My worry is that Biden, and those who pull his strings, can cause serious damage in four years of misguided policies.
      Your country had a leader who really cared for the American people and it appears that criminal elements have entered and effected the political arena by electing someone who is nothing more than an old fool who has, from what I can determine, never had an original idea in his entire life. Hopefully, your judicial system will deal with the corrupt Biden family. We shall see if it has the balls to do the right thing.

    Thanks for telling it like it is and I share your bewilderment. How did these lying zealots and
    nincompoops destroy and replace Trump and his many great achievements? For me, the answer
    is found in realizing that the political Left has grown from an activist generation in the 60’s, which,
    over time, brought their Marxist ‘equal outcomes’ ideology to the faculties and newsrooms. It seems
    now to be what amounts to a secular religion in which the faithful know only their own socio/economic
    objectives. Believing in their movement to install a mandated equality Utopia, their ends, such as destroying by any and all means, the capitalist Trump, are not only justified but imperative. Anything
    that stands in their way is to them, a heresy. That, for me, explains the corruptions of Schiff ‘et al’ and the behaviour of their media stooges. Mr. Mcleod, please keep speaking out.

      Hi Bob:
      Thank you for your reply to my blog.
      These are frustrating times for thinking people in both Canada and the United States.
      Finally, after years of awful leadership in the US, a businessman surprised everyone and was elected President. By any measure, even though he was mercilessly attacked by the left wing media and the Democratic Party liars, he was able to accomplish great things for his fellow Americans.
      Those of us living in Canada, at least the non-taking Canadians, could only be so lucky as to have someone like President Trump run our country.
      I intend to keep writing blogs on topics which concern me. I hope you will read them and let me know what you think.
      Best wishes,

      Thank you for your reply. I am delighted you liked the content of my most recent blog. If you are so inclined, pass it on to your relatives and friends. We tend to get bullied by leftist members of our print and electronic media, the very same people who sit around drinking each others bathwater while a large number of people quietly agree with you and me but lack a forum to express a contrary viewpoint.
      However, if things like my blog are passed around and people have an opportunity to embrace contrary thoughts, maybe, just maybe, we can cause things to change for the better.
      Kindest regards,
      Rod
