Recently the newly elected President of the United States, our 47th, Donald J. Trump, encouraged the 118th Congress to raise the debt ceiling. When called out by Representative Chip Roy from the Great State of Texas, the incoming President excoriated him and threatened to have him removed from office during the primary of the next election. I find this behavior on the part of the incoming President deplorable, and I wish Chip Roy my very best.
I voted for Donald J. Trump, not as the solution to what ails America, but as a stop-gap against the fanatical Left. I stand by my decision. Unfortunately, Donald J. Trump appears to be more interested in making a name for himself than addressing the single most important issue of D.C. corruption — our nation’s corrupt money supply. If our nation’s Great Enabler — our corrupt money supply — is not checked, the Deep State will continue to flourish despite our best effort to root it out.
No, I never expected Donald J. Trump to denounce the current financial system — well, at least, not on his own volition —, but the manner in which he recently spoke out of Chip Roy is appalling. It were, as if the year were 2020, and Thomas Massey had just resisted Congress’s CoVID bailout.
Donald Trump’s short term view of the future of America should put us all on alert.
Those who equate the incoming President with the future of America should think again. He may leave Americans better off at the end of his 2nd term, but he appears to have little intent to leave the American nation better off in the long term.
Rather that I ring the bell now, than wait until 2028.
I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!
In liberty,
