Never give up. I'm old. Do you know how easy it would be for me to sit back and say I quit. Chances are I won't live long enough for it to get really bad. Reality is it's not about me. I'm a patriot. I was raised to salute the flag, that pledge of allegiance I made actually means something and that the united States of America is the greatest country on the planet. To sit back and let it fall goes against everything I believe in. My sweet little granddaughter at 10 years old is truly the most innocent loving person I have known in my lifetime. She is so inherently good she doesn't see evil in anyone or anything. She can and will find good in every situation. I cannot/will not let them destroy her and the other innocents like her. I will do whatever is necessary to take my country back! Stand up! Make the commitment! If our fore father's had given up we wouldn't have a country. NEVER back down. You are a patriot!

I just wanted to add that the left promises instant solutions to all the world's problems. I'm hearing it from my kid. "Oh, all you have to do is ...."
He and I agree on a number of things, such as the need to reform the way (and how much) we pay for college, some environmental concerns, etc., so he demanded to know why I didn't vote for Bernie. "Darlin', Bernie is a genial old commie who is not capable of running the country, and whose policies will never deliver on his promises." At this point, there is no way on earth I can SHOW him what's wrong with Marxist policies, because he just does not comprehend what I tell him -- his context is still to thin.
He has no idea why I watched every one of DJT's Wuhan Coronavirus press conferences, and no real appreciation for the role of the Federal government in both protecting us from overseas travelers, as well as making equipment and medicines available where they are needed.
He has no idea that this is the first US President in my lifetime who actually used the tools of the office to lift burdens off of our economy, to very good effect.
But, he's learning from GameStop.
He thinks for himself, and I'm not discouraged by the process.
