The "Collapse" of Reason

An Opinion by Martin

Whether or not people like it, Trump won the Presidency in November 2016 and was sworn into Office on January 20, 2017.  I did not support Donald J. Trump during the Primaries and still have my doubts about his intentions.  But, since he was elected, I will support him and his plans to govern.

Since November 8th, people opposed to Trump appear to have lost all sense of reason and civility.  There are mobs of Leftists in the streets interfering with people' lives and destroying property while pretending to be a groundswell of citizens opposed to the new President, his administration and his apparent plans to return the United States to a Constitutional form of government. 

Now that the President has given his first speech before a joint session of Congress, the former Democrat Party, now openly aligned with the Communist Party, USA and backed by a number of Left-wing financiers such as George Soros and his Open Society Foundations, has completely lost all sense of direction and decorum.  They will use any information they can find whether it's accurate or not to discredit Trump's administration.  If they can't find any dirt to use against him, they have no problem creating that information.  As Goebbels said "If you repeat a lie often enough, the people will begin to believe."

On the other side of the coin, the Republican Party appears to have a problem learning to govern or they would rather sit on the sidelines and whine rather than taking responsibility for their actions.

On the third side of the coin, you have the unelected bureaucracy which writes laws, rules and regulations that impact your life on a daily basis with no input at all from, or review by, Congress.  These nameless, faceless people are more concerned about their personal agendas than they are about your daily lives and that of your families.

And, on the fourth side of this very strange coin you have the media which over the years have become, in their collective minds, another branch of the government co-equal to the other three Branches and they are "offended" by anyone who points out this self-aggrandizement. 

Today in the Country, we have a strange conundrum in which one part of the electorate believes that they were robbed of the Oval Office, one part of the electorate is breathing a sigh of relief that Hillary Clinton did not win and the Establishment on both sides, Republican and Democrat, are worried that Donald J. Trump will dismantle their gravy train and given the chance, Trump may just do that.

Today, in the United States, Donald J. Trump is the President whether we like it or not.  My personal opinion is that we need to set partisanship aside and work together for the betterment of Our Country.
