America's legacy of peace is sealed with the glue of our culture and shared beliefs. Saying that Nationalism is evil, standing for one's own culture and country in a unified way, to this character Macron, President of France, he is speaking in double-speak. Orwellian double-speak. He wants us to open our borders and embrace the bedraggled refugees from failed governments into our waiting arms and homes, sharing the milk of human kindness, and our wealth with those who could not survive within their own lives at home. But they can survive in our homes with our wealth. I say wealth. To them it's wealth. To us it's being one paycheck from homelessness. We just do it with a style that they have never seen. That's America.
Our full time job is the exact same thing as treading water. If we stop, we drown. It is past time for inhabitants of Socialist and Islamist countries to rise up and build constitutionally guaranteed cultures that promote universal individual freedom instead of cultish cutouts beholden to the long time dead and bankrupt, greedy socialists and Islamists that make their bed comfortable by enslaving women in Islam and everyone in Socialism.
Nationalism in Europe is a much different animal than in the West. Many in Europe have experienced communism personally, and it is counter intuitive, but time forces memories to fade...even those terrible memories of suffering, war and death of so many millions. Maybe that's why the memories fade so quickly...so many of the victims are dead...and like soldiers who come back from war mentally traumatized, they don't want to remember those times at all. Alas, impatient young people take the reins once again and head leadership in a direction that is ill advised and in some cases lead right back to war.
No home grown American has seen communism's terror and destruction of economic and human life.. But we Americans study history and we can see how Socialism leads to it. We are not stupid, though we have many, many stupid people living in America. Freedom and liberty lives on a knife edge here, for we have young, impatient people here, too. Our constitution is what keeps us from losing our liberty to well meaning, shallow citizens called liberals, but they either just don't understand the consequences of their propositions or they are corrupt and have a dishonorable agenda. Hillary Clinton sold access and favors as Secretary of State. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez has no idea how terrible Socialism is yet she is presented by liberals as a leader worthy of following. Bernie Sanders must be stupid, because he is old enough to know better but still demands that the state take on the responsibility of paying our way in heath care and other "pie in the sky" desires when it would lead to Socialism, sink the stock market and leave us in the conditions of the 1930's....starving to death. Remember, economics is global, and when we trigger a recession or depression it effects all of the world economies. That's how wars begin.
Our minor conservative majority in America can easily see the folly of funding governments bent on failure and self destruction. No amount of "other peoples' money" can fix that for them. Only a nation's people can fix that kind of problem and sometimes it takes a little revolution. Though we know this, the UN still tries to extort hundreds of billions of dollars from us to "mitigate" damage we have fostered on under-developed countries by causing climate change...which is a lot of BS. Al Gore is no scientist. He is an entrepreneur who made millions of dollars investing in green energy as an investor and then as a politician protecting those companies from failure by guaranteeing investors using US taxpayer money, and when they failed, ...we paid!
Now we have a blessing...a President who is willing to protect us from this kind of extortion by not allowing these back room deals by thieving politicians...in the face of non-stop criticism by politicians and Media alike. Not a damn one of them works like that he does for nothing. Our President is working for America. He is working for us. And those who run him down, call him a liar and everything else they can think of, actually run us down. Once the most prestigious news network in the world, CNN has been rededicated to bringing our President down by their president, Jeffrey Zucker. I am sure they spend much of their time brainstorming how they can bend current events to reflect badly upon our President, and upon us. Jeff Zucket told Vanity Fair that every time CNN turns away grom Trump, toward reporting current events, CNN loses it's audience. Remember that next time you see Rachel Maddow or Joe Scarborough casting unlikely vilifications against Trump in machine gun fashion. There simply is no honor from that crowd of overpaid news wannabes.
Reading is educating. The answers to our questions are available online and in millions of books. If you don't understand why some things are, the answers are available if you will read. Until you learn for yourself you are subject to manipulation by others. In this great country, ultimately, we are the leaders. We must be ready to lead.
