The truth is the world is a better place today that yesterday. The truth is regardless of details, a once free country has the opportunity to be free again if they want it bad enough. The truth is, America's enemies, China, Russia, Iran, North Korea are weaker today than yesterday. And they are all taking note. Iran is failing as I type. Russia is weaker today than they've been in more than a century. North Korea is meaningless and they know it. China... well, as long as we are beholden to China for trade, they will continue to be a problem for us. But they also are weaker now than 5 years ago. Their economy is in shambles but because they're communist, they can largely hide it. They have an aging and declining population. Their military is full of graft. So much so they've discovered water in missiles instead of fuel. Their military may look strong on paper, but is just like every other inferior Chinese product produced. Their expansion through loans has taken a huge blow and almost no country wants their money or loans. Their pacific neighbors have a strangle hold on their shipping lanes. They are and always have been a paper tiger that our politicians have been allowed to strengthen through trade and shipping our jobs and manufacturing overseas. They got too big for their britches under Biden. Trump may not be perfect, but he is taking steps on multiple levels to weaken China too. Biden left is in a horrible mess. He had help and a lot of it. The demoncrats have robbed us blind and we've barely scraped the top of the corruption. The republicans saber rattled but didn't do shit to stop it, went along with it in fact. While I don't like him on a personal level and far from agree with all his decisions. The only person in the entire world trying to correct all this is Trump. That's the truth. I've long since gave up on high ground and morals when it comes to dealing with our enemies. We aren't perfect but we are a far cry better than the alternatives. We can and should be better. That's hard to do surrounded by Communism, Marxists, liberals and a media that is the enemy of the people.

Character is not developed in moments of temptation and trial. That is when it is intended to be used.
