asks me how I dealt with such a 'hard' life. Like excuse me?
lol... wow.
I admit that one of the things that annoys me with their sentiment is that we have it really damn easy here in the US. Doesn't really matter who we are. We take it for granted.
Look at other countries where they hang people for being gay. Or torture them to death. Or shoot up churches. Or abduct and torture people for their faith. Or... well... you get the idea.
We've got to be grateful for what we have. Sure, we could do better. Everyone could. But I think what's most disappointing from the left is their fixation on all of the negatives that have happened in US history.
Under Trump though I found solace. Love for my country and my people. It's lit a fire in me.
You and me both, my friend.
I've been a repub since I registered to vote at 18. I've been a conservative all my life. I don't identify as one anymore because the neocons have ruined anything the "conservative" ideology represented. The GOPe did the rest. Over the last 4 years, I've increasingly referred to myself as a Constitutionalist.
There's really no other option for us, and I honestly hope Trump creates a separate party. Let's cast aside the shackles of identity and finally identify as Americans, first and foremost, and give a big middle finger to anyone who wants to divide us or destroy us.
I used to hate this place. Not anymore. I've seen the error in my ways.
This gives me so much hope that if we can just open hearts and minds, many more will follow in your footsteps and realize that we're not evil on the right. Many of us just want to be left alone.
I'm thinking that the left having shown their hand as authoritarian fetishists has helped recently. I don't know if it's enough. I hope so.
I want to bond over our patriotism. And fight commies together. Lol. Conservatism has certainly been hijacked by RINOs with only themselves in mind, and that's awful.
EXACTLY. On all counts, I might add.
It's all the neocons too. The Bushes. The Roves. The long litany of idiot "conservatives" who spend their time in backroom deals with the left conspiring over how to ruin the country and line their pockets with riches robbed from the treasury.
Universities have long taught that patriotism is evil. It's high time we ended that!
I appreciate your prayers and kind thoughts. Thank you for being not only a really awesome pede and Patriot, but also just a kind human.
I thank you for your hospitality, kindness, and patience. I'm long-winded, so I appreciate that you took the time to reply to everything I wrote. I really do.
