Star Parker wrote an interesting concerning the GOP and stated that the GOP can't become a big tent for moral relativism. She's exactly right on target. How can you mix oil and water? You can't. Therefore the GOP can't straddle on both sides of the fence and expect to come out on top. The conservative movement needs candidates that are uniquely and distinctly different from the Democratic Party. If the GOP goes along with gay pride, abortion and other social issues that the Democrats support, that will greatly hinder the GOP base. There will be many like voters who typically vote Republican who won't vote because they don't like what they see out of the Republican Party. Voters are tired of seeing Democrat-lite candidates on the Republican ticket, like Mitt Romney in 2012. Moral and social issues are very important. We can't expect God to bless America if we don't stand for Biblical values such as marriage between man and woman, the right to life, America's support of Israel, etc. This is a spiritual battle that's taking place in the political arena. If the GOP doesn't stand for moral/social issues, then they will lose much of its base and rightly so. Click on the above link to read the article.
This is a YouTube video where Donnie Swaggart, son of Evangelist Jimmy Swaggart, recites his letter that he wrote to former president Trump prior to leaving the White House. I want to clarify that this isn't a promotion of the Jimmy Swaggart Ministries. I know what happened back over 33+ years ago when it was revealed that Jimmy Swaggart was entertaining a prostitute at a Baton Rouge motel. I'm not endorsing or supporting Swaggart's past actions. I am posting this because it's about our former president and I was really moved in what he wrote in the letter to the former president. This is about paying tribute to everything Trump was right about when he was president. It's about giving credit where credit where credit is due.
I'm going to give you my insight about how I stand in regards to our former president. I'm not going to review or critique what Swaggart had to say about Trump. If anything, I'll add to it. First of all, I've been registered to vote since 1989, when I turned 18. Let me tell you what inspired me to register to vote when I turned 18. It was the 1984 presidential election between Ronald Reagan and Walter Mondale. I was very excited and enthusiastic about that presidential election. I paid attention to it on the news that year at 13 years of age. I had a strong fervent desire to vote in that election, but I couldn't because I was too young. However, I was determined that year that as soon as I turned 18, I was going to register to vote. Since that time I can honestly say to the best of my knowledge I don't ever recall a time I've ever missed a vote whether it be presidential, congressional, local, state, or special election. I've always been serious about being at the polls when an election came about whether it was primary or general election. I'm thankful for the God-given privilege to vote. There have been numerous times I've written in candidates' name because I didn't trust either candidate on the Democratic or Republican side. That's how important voting is to me.
I recall the 2016 election when probably at least 16 or 17 Republicans were placing their hat in the ring. Many in the news media and political pundits thought Jeb Bush, former Florida governor and the brother and son of former presidents '41 and '43 would probably win the GOP primary. I also remember Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Kentucky Senator Rand Paul was running for president. Of course, Ted Cruz and Rand Paul weren't options for me because they were Senators serving in Washington. I had no intention nor desire to vote for a politician in Washington. I was so sick and tired of the phoniness I saw in the Republican Party and I knew that any politician already serving in Washington wasn't going to stand for our country if elected president. However, when Trump fared well in the primaries, I was determined to vote for him in the general election but vote for Ben Carson, a former neurosurgeon, was running for president. However, he dropped out of the race prior to the Kentucky caucus. (Kentucky had a caucus that year because Rand Paul was running for president and U.S. Senator). Therefore, when we had the Kentucky caucus, I voted for Trump in the primary, because he was the only other option for me. He was a businessman and political outsider. He was the one person I desired to cast my vote for because I didn't want a professional Washington politician in the White House. We've had enough of those. In that election and. the 2020 election, I voted for Donald Trump in both the primary and general elections.
I am thankful for President Trump in defending our country over the course of 4 years. He wasn't perfect, but he did a great job when you consider the constant barrage of criticism and ridicule from both the medial and the Democrats and Republicans. He's had more courage than any other politician to stand for the values of God, Country, and the Constitution in many, many years. Not only was he criticized and ridiculed on a daily basis, but he was ridiculed hour by hour as far as I'm concerned over the course of over 4 years. Also, he had to endure the Russian collusion hoax, an impeachment trial over Ukraine, etc. There were constant efforts to remove him from the White House in the last four years. The media and our elected elite were looking for whatever they could find to discredit him and to remove him from the White House. They literally hated Donald Trump. I want to add the reason for their hatred of Donald Trump wasn't "Trump derangement syndrome" or his personality. There's only one single reason and that's because he stood in the way of the New World Order. Any president that doesn't support the New World Order will be hated and opposed at every turn. The establishment elite doesn't want a president that supports the slogan of God, country, and the Constitution. The elites consider Christian conservatives as a government within a government and they must be silenced. Big Tech has been doing just that in the past year. He's the first president since Ronald Reagan to stand up for the values of our country. All the presidents from George H.W. Bush to Barack Obama were politically correct. He was a president that stood for American sovereignty, American manufacturing, and the greatness of America.
Here's a list of things I want to thank the former President for: Thank you for being a friend to Israel, thank you for speaking at a Right to Life rally in 2020, the first president to ever do so. Thank you for rebuilding our military. Thank you for renegotiating treaties signed by past administrations that haven't produced anything good for the American people and have instead costed taxpayers probably trillions of dollars. Thank you for supporting Christians not only in America and around the world. Thank you for attending the funeral of the late Billy Graham in 2018, who once preached the gospel around the world. Thank you for the tax cuts of 2017. Thank you for the stimulus checks from last year due to many people losing their jobs as a result of the "global pandemic". Thank you for not traveling around the world apologizing for America because you know America is the greatest country in the world and America is always there when another country is in need.
I do want to thank you for everything that you did when you were right on the issues. I voted for you on the basis of issues; not your personality. I support you when you're right on the issues. I don't worship you or make a god out of you. But when you support the pillars that make America great such as God, Country, and the Constitution, I am for you. Lastly, thanks for doing your part to the best of your ability to make American great again.
On New Year's Eve, President Trump wrote: Why would smart voters vote for Democrats in 2018 when they continue to benefit from strong borders, a stronger economy, as well as the destruction of ISIS? I will admit any voter with a grain of sense within them would not desire to vote for the likes of Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, for example. Those types of Democrats are pure Marxists. The GOP, on the other hand, are fiscal socialists. There's not much difference between them and the Democrats. Last year in 2017 we've had all kinds of media coverage of "Russian collusion" stating that President Trump colluded with Russia to make sure that Hillary was defeated in 2016. That's garbage. However, I believe both the GOP and the Democrats have been conspiring against President Trump since before he took oath of office last year. The Republicans have done nothing except stifle Trump's agenda from moving forward such as the repeal of Obamacare and the building of a border wall. The GOP Congress did pass "tax cuts" but that isn't true tax reform. True tax reform is abolishing the graduated tax system by eliminating all the tax categories. What should be instituted is a flat tax where every taxpayer pay the same percentage. How effective the tax cuts will be only time will tell.
President Trump, you need to understand that the GOP isn't for you any more than the Democrats are. They are all looking for the opportunity to place your head on the platter. The Republican elite is just as much opposed to you as the Democrats are in Washington. I have no use for the Paul Ryan's Kevin McCarthy's, Jeff Flakes, John McCain's, Bob Corker's and the like. Smart voters don't have any desire to place Democrats in power in Washington. However, smart voters have no desire to elect and re-elect RINO's to Congress. Both political parties are in collusion with one another to destroy this country and if you can't see that, then you're blind. We need you as president to be the leader of our country and stand up against those that desire to enact policies that are for the destruction of our country. Anything that doesn't fall under the umbrella of God, Country, and the Constitution is a menace to our country. We can't stand for that. Let's hope that we'll have a huge GOP primary to vote out those Republican incumbents that are running for re-election this year in both the House and Senate.
I have posted an article from Kelleigh Nelson who reveals who Ted Cruz is and he isn't what he may portray himself to be. He and his wife, Heidi Nelson Cruz, are D.C.'s power couple who are globalists. They both were once a part of the George W. Bush's administration. Cruz once worked under former National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice under the Bush administration. Goldman Sachs is one of the investment banks that donated to Cruz's campaign and also donated to Obana's presidential campaign in 2009. Click on the above link to read the full story.
There are many talk show hosts such as Glenn Beck who strongly support the candidacy of Ted Cruz for president in 2016. Many conservatives and Tea Party members support Ted Cruz for president. However, if anyone believes that Cruz is a God, Country, and the Constitution kind of conservative, they're wrong. Cruz is a globalist himself, along with his wife Heidi Nelson Cruz. They are a part of the Bush cabal. They both worked on Bush's campaign for president in 1999-2000. Heidi Cruz isn't the typical devoted wife and mother one would think. When I say that I'm not insinuating there's marital infidelity that's taken place but that Heidi Cruz is a globalist herself who's had ties with the Bush White House. She worked for former National Security Advisor Condoleeza Rice years ago. She also worked for Trade Representative Robert Zoelllick. She also is an American investment manager at Goldman Sachs but right now she's been in Texas to help with Ted Cruz's campaign for president. She also was a member of the Council on Foreign Relations where she chaired a group that advocated the U.S. erasing it's borders with Mexico and Canada to become united as the North American Union. They're far from the red, white, and blue Americans we would desire to occupy the White House. Even though I would vote for Cruz over Hillary Clinton, he isn't my choice to nominate as the next president of the United States in the primary. Cruz postures himself to be the conservative that I don't believe he is. I believe if he were president he would support amnesty.

Pat Buchanan was right on the money on what he said about Tuesday's election. Tuesday's election was a repudiation of President Obama and his policies. This election doesn't give the mandate for the GOP to "work together" with the Democrats to continue the same old policies that the American people rejected when they voted for Republicans at the polls on Tuesday. The American people didn't vote to give President Obama the authority to issue an executive order to grant amnesty to millions of illegal aliens. The American people didn't vote to continue the same strategy in Iraq to supposedly fight ISIS. I believe the majority of American people prefer we leave Iraq unless we unleash all the firepower and manpower necessary to win this war and the American people don't want a long, protracted war in Iraq. It was the war in Iraq in 2006 that resulted in both houses of Congress regaining Democratic control in 2007 and it was the current war in fighting the Islamic State which resulted in the Democrats losing the Senate, which is my opinion. If the GOP doesn't listen, then they'll lose control of Congress again, maybe in 2016 if they're not careful.
