Fright, Fright, Fright

 


Here we are.


The country has decided and they decided to move the country in the opposite way I (personally) want it to go.  We have a new (old) face of the country and it’s angry, one sided and filled with revenge and vitriol.  We have officially become us vs them.  It’s not only the from the top, but in the middle and the bottom.  One persons vision and how we are to be perceived by the world is now how we as Americans will be seen and there is nothing that can be done.  The returning President has the house and  the senate which means as the true minority, they will pass anything and everything they want.

The risk of Supreme Court appointments are now out of our hands and with it already being a majority of right leaning majority, we are now looking at up to 3 more appointees who will be in those seats in perpetuity.  They have already tried Roe V Wade and remember, now that he is President, they have established that he’ll have partial immunity for accusations while in office.  Now, he won't have immunity over the issues pre and post presidency, but honestly, if people continue to approach those things, not only will it go nowhere, but it’ll look bad and be a huge waste of money.  

He’s going to walk into (again) a great economy that has been bouncing back from 4 years from what he left and the country will (one again) be fooled by saying he did it.  So, he's walking into 2025 with a hero to the economy.  Now, a smart person will know the reality, but smart people didn’t re elect him.  

I have already seen the typical Monday Morning Quarterbacks looking and stating that they “knew this would happen” to that “its Joe’s fault” to “Kamala was the wrong candidate”… here’s the truth.  None of that is accurate.  In the end it came down to one thing.  Democracy.  What that mans is one person, one vote.  Who you choose to choose on a ballot is what America is about.  I did my part and had everyone in the world calling “what will happen”…man, I don't fucking know.  I did my part and it’s out of my hands.  We aren’t out here calling people to ask them to “find” votes.  The people have chosen.  

Now is not a time to look back, blame and wonder “what if”, etc… bottom line is people chose.  Im sure many who you thought were voting one way, did the opposite behind the curtain.  Such is life.

Now we watch… remember, there is very little you can do.  President, Congress, Senate and House are the majority.  They will do what they do and the days of “power to the People” are over.  The country is not the country history spoke of and documented.  

There’s a returning sheriff in town..and he’s angry, revenge seeking and works for one person.  Himself.  

There will be lots of name calling, lots of quid pro quo, lots of decisions made for individuals gain and lots more poverty, anger, discrimination and racism.  

But this is what America chose.  

Individually, you need to re calibrate and live life to the fullest and release and let go of the result.  It's not changing and every moment you spend being angry, is a moment you’ll never get back.

One thing that I realized a long time ago when this dude first got on Twitter and established President Obama was not an American, I knew the world was going to change.  His getting into the White House the first time was the toothpaste out the tube… he gave permission to the country to not hold back, make decisions and say things they are thinking without a filter.  The country has changed and even if candidate Harris won, the direction was decided and wasn’t changing,  So now we are going to live in the worst of it and nothing we can do about it.

Live your life, continue to be the person you want to be and not allowing the country’s direction and choices define you.  You only live once and the amount of anxiety and stress you put on yourself over something you can t control is always going to be energy you’ll never get back.  

But… I am scared for women, I am scared for the economy, I am scared for the right to free speech, I am scared for our environment, I am scared for the Ukraine, I am scared for Palestinians, I am scared for education and I am very scared for minorities…

Bless America and the fingers crossed for the future of the country… 

To all artists… writers, painters, musicians…this is your time.  

To all students… you are the future.  Educate yourself.  Look to the past to make your future.  Make your future.  The old model is broken.  Make a new one and don’t rely on the current status quo to dictate your future.  Build a new model.  That’s your only hope.

To all news networks…  Report real news.  Stop being pundits for cash.  Go back to real investigative journalism.  Follow up, double check facts.  Honor the job and report the truth, not your opinions. If you don't,..please fuck off.
