We have put too much of our trust in men to save the country. We must put our trust in God. To work his will.
What we think is important today, really doesn't mean much to God's larger plans.
Isaiah 40:15 "Surely the nations are like a drop in a bucket; they are regarded as dust on the scales; he weighs the islands as though they were fine dust."
Pray not for specifics, but pray for Truth and the defeat of Evil. God knows who is evil and who is not. Those we thought were good and turned out to not be. God knew. Trust in him.
Don't trust the plans of men, but rather put your trust in the plans of God. Let his will be done.

You’re correct! AMEN
I'm going to write this to all you nonbeliever pedes.
I know you feel cringy when you see posts like this and you wonder if we're all just as crazy as the radical lefties. I understand how you feel. I grew up as a stone cold athiest. I thought the God people were crazy.
One day I was really questioning my sanity and I was really lost. I was spiralling. Deep depression I never told anyone about. Not even family. To be honest I couldn't even admit it was happening.
Now this is the part you need to just hang in and listen to me on for a minute. I was watching YouTube on what had to be one off my darkest nights. This was before I was even aware of all the evil in our government. Through a string of totally unrelated happenings starting with a string of youtube videos, I got saved. I didn't even know I needed rescuing. Who saved me? We'll I didn't know. If I could only explain to you how close I was and how ready I was to end it all, THATS when I got saved. The darker the darkness, the brighter the light.
I didn't know who rescued me, but the happenstance of all the coinkydinks led me to believe I had to be one of the luckiest men on earth. It felt like if I bought ten lottery tickets and won all ten in a row. Statistically, extremely impossible on a grand scale you wouldn't even believe. This is when I first started thinking "maybe a God of some kind does exist in some way, somehow" and after that everything changed. I started reading the Bible to figure out who this jesus guy was, and that was the man. That was the same man that saved me that dark night. One of the darkest nights of my life turned so bright, so beautiful. You wouldn't even believe.
After that I learned more and more about Jesus and what he did for us. Everything started to finally make perfect sense. I still struggle with sins. More and more I turn to the almighty to help me through it. I am not a perfect man. In fact, I'm a terrible person. Truely evil. A monster. But Jesus took my heart of stone and turned it into a heart of flesh. I need him, these people need him, everyone needs him including you and I can't in good conscience not tell you athiest pedes about how great the one true real God really is.
My point is that I can't save you. I can't convince you god exists. So I'm not even going to try. All I'm going to do is let you discover him yourself. He's real and he is an invisible spirit that is everywhere all the time throughout the entire universe. He spoke the universe into existence with the word. This is the fuse that lit the big bang. I cannot save you, you cannot save you, but God himself can.
You can have a personal relationship with him and you don't have to tell anyone. It's just between you and him. You can speak to him within your head, alone in your closet, whereever you're most comfortable. Ask him to come into your life and to save you and ask him with all your heart mind and soul and right when you forget that you asked is right when it's going to happen. An all knowing god knows when you're taking advantage of him. He knows if you're lying or betraying him. So be aware of that.
You can't trust your family, you can't trust your friends, you can't trust trump (eventhough sometimes I wish I could. He's just just a mortal man and makes mistakes) and if you're smart, you might know that you can't even trust yourself. But if you're looking for someone to trust, trust jesus, who is the spirit of God himself manifested in the flesh of a man. He created the world, think of it like a video game. then he put his son in it as himself, and showed us how to beat the game. How to win. Not only how to win but how to get a perfect score.
Winning isn't easy, so beware. The Bible says many people will not accept him. Being a winner isn't easy. It's not for everyone although I wish every human alive would beat the game. It's just not going to happen. God says his path is a narrow path, while the path of the evil one is a wide path, that is well traveled. I just hope you take the time, how little of it we have left, and form a relationship with Jesus. He will never lie to you, betray you. He is the same since the beggining, he will be the same after the ending. The same, always.
It's a tough pill to swallow, the idea to get to the eternity is to pick up your cross and carry it just like Jesus, just know that those who die for him, live. Jesus is the alpha and the omega, the beggining and the ending. All of us are beta males compared to Jesus. When you add everything up and look at all the cards on the table, Jesus was right. Get right with him before it's too late. Here soon if we don't purge the traitors, having a job will be white supremacy. Clearly the time we have left is dwindling. If you pick up your cross and go preach the good news, the gospel of jesus to all the creatures, accept jesus as your lord and savior and hold his ten commandments, you too shall be saved, and granted everlasting life. Hopefully we will see each other on the other side. Don't ever forget that I love you, Jesus loves you. Don't ever give up.
Amen!
