Here\u2019s a quick review of where everything stands.\u00a0 The President comes out of the mid-terms losing the possibility of getting things easily through the Congress because of the Democrat capture of the House.\u00a0 But he gains a reliable Senate majority for appointments to the Supreme Court Bench and the Cabinet.\u00a0 Having disposed of Jeff Sessions and seeing the Mueller investigation blind-sided by a Manafort defection on his plea bargain it looks like the President is maneuvering to a place where he can deal with Mueller.\u00a0 His temporary appointment of Matthew Whitaker as Attorney General is angering the Progressives so it must be a good move.\u00a0 The strong stand the President is taking at the southern border is the right move and I hope he holds firm on that front.\u00a0 It will win him support and help make clear that a wall at the border is a necessity.\u00a0 It might even force the Democrats in the House to support funding out of fear of losing re-election in 2020.<\/p>\n
The economy continues to move forward and unless you have all your money in the stock market (which is finally seeing a long overdue correction) this will be a very Merry Christmas.<\/p>\n
The bad publicity and federal investigations examining anti-conservative deplatforming in the social media and on-line circles hasn\u2019t materially helped our side very much yet.\u00a0 But the comments by the President and other government leaders have had some effect on Silicon Valley and if there is more than just threat associated with this talk maybe we can see some pushback.\u00a0 It would be nice if paypal and the other fund transfer vendors are slapped down and forced to play nice.<\/p>\n
And finally, the continuing awakening of Americans to the reality of the assault on their way of life and even their identity is moving apace and is having a powerful effect on attitudes and actions.\u00a0 Many people have gone from mindlessly following the proclamations of the left-wing media to seeing for themselves who is on their side and who is selling them out to the progressives.\u00a0 This doesn\u2019t involve the Millenials unfortunately, they are pretty much hopelessly in thrall to the Narrative and will continue to be the most loyal proponents of the Progressive path.\u00a0 But I think it\u2019s apparent that older folk will have to help steer the next generation (Gen Z?) into a better mode of thinking.\u00a0 That is something I have thinking about myself.\u00a0 Hopefully other are too.<\/p>\n
All in all, we go into December in a better place than we were last year and with a clear path to improving things on all fronts.\u00a0 It still remains for President Trump to resolve the Mueller situation.\u00a0 But he seems much better suited than I to decide how that should be done.\u00a0 And he needs to get his Justice Department working on bringing relief to all of us suffering at the hands of Progressive tech barons and lower court judges who attack conservatives whenever they can.\u00a0 And I think he will.\u00a0 So, paint me optimistic and here we are at the quick sprint to Christmas and New Year.\u00a0 Ho, ho, ho.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
