I said the same thing months ago. Unfortunately I just don’t see it happening again. Not when half of the populace is purposely working to destroy our Nation.

I’m afraid Ron himself wouldn’t be successful in 2022. Though Carter, Mondale and Ferraro didn’t agree with Reagan’s politics, you never once questioned their patriotism and love for our Nation.

In 2016 politics in our country changed forever. While Obama may have laid the foundation for what we are seeing in the streets, for the most part he did it quietly during his time in the White House.

When Hillary lost you knew something had changed when the Democrats immediately went to the streets throwing a temper tantrum that lasted 4 years. Has a member of Congress ever made a statement like Maxine Waters did targeting members of a Presidential administration?

In 2020 we saw more violence in the streets, with Democrats working hard to intimidate Conservative voters using BLM and Antifa activists. Once the election ended, all of the so-call “protesters” disappeared.

Even if there were someone of the caliber of Reagan, he wouldn’t be able to straighten out the mess our Nation is in. When the president’s press secretary threatens the First Amendment in a press conference or the FBI creates a new division to investigate parents going to a school board meeting, our freedoms are being assaulted.

The number of us who still believe in our Constitution gets smaller every day. I don’t see a path back from our headlong dive into Socialist/ Communism.

The American we remember is dead. If it’s not dead it’s on life support and the Democrats are working hard to pull the plug.

We simply have no one to fight for our Nation the way Reagan did.

When people quit trusting incumbents, Republicans wanted someone besides a Bush, and the media quit being able to gaslight the people into one way of thinking, of course things turned ugly. In Europe they went sour when Brits rightly voted for Brexit.

When Corporate / Globalist agenda's started being defeated fascism showed its face. Now laws quietly put on the books in the 90's and reinforced after 9/11 are being used against people in all the places we thought freedom existed. The EU, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and many parts of the United States.

What it illustrates is how common people ignore too much of the laws which are passed when nothing is going on and agree to anything when something like 9/11 happens.

Most of my life we had the FBI and CIA. I defy you to list all the secretive Federal and National law groups now. HSA and DIA are just the tip of the iceberg and if they knocked on the door of the average citizen and declared themselves (which they aren't likely to do now anyway) the people inside would be yelling back, "Who?"

Freedom dies on ordinary days and through legislation most don't read, and fewer question, because bureaucratic aides and lobbyist say it looked good to them.

Other than inflation, Im having a hard time seeing misery in America. It still fcking great here.

Miserry is:

Dependence upon enemies for life preserving pharmaceuticals (90% from China).
Dependence upon enemies for fuel sources (8% Russia, but more from the Saudis/ remember 9/11)
Dependence upon defense parts supplied by your enemy (China / this is as stupid and irresponsible as any nation has ever been to its military and citizens).
Having no response to a twice popularized Manchurian Candidate (Biden)
And in being stuck with this compromised leadership in an ever-increasing hostile world.
The citizens of the United States this moment are more imperiled than they ever were at any point during WWII. In WWII, other than rubber, we were totally supplied from within and we developed synthetic rubber to self supply even that necessity. We didn't just ship production of "ESSENTIAL" supplies overseas, we dismantled production sites here. No country can sustain hostilities when "ESSENTIAL" supplies are extraneous its borders and that's if they are provided by allies. Ours are in the hands of enemies.

Misery is insanity and we are, and have been, willfully insane for a quick buck turned on slave labor!

America faces plenty of problems. Many of them simply due to poor leadership by a failing 2 gang political system. We do however still live in a great country that is geographically blessed. We have no fear of being invaded by an enemy due to the daunting challenges any invader would face. Our least fortunate citizens still live better lives than anywhere else in the world. It's still the reason people risk their lives trying to get here. Americans have no clue what real "misery" is. Its pretty great here compared to challenges a great percentage of the the worlds population faces. We tend to forget this until we see schit like Ukraine happen. THAT is real misery.

I've heard this used to cover our issues for most of my life. Misery in the 30's wasn't as severe as in Germany. But it was miserable for many. It is true we have it better than most. We are slipping fast and if/when the dollar loses WRC status we will be Weimar overnight. Our enemies will control us and outspend us on defense and R&D.

You have to work damned hard to keep what you have, and small business has learned that the power of corporate money could be leveraged against them, and the way of life in smaller towns and cities in America from the 50's - 80's is gone forever and corporate chains dictate terms, and apparently social policy now. Most of the policy decisions which have led to our problems are due to the leverage of the same corporations and it is through their economic power that they begin to control government decisions and through that government ceases to be of the people, for the people (like national defense, justice, and law enforcement) and by the people (the only ones who once decided political matters prior to PAC funds).

Just because your frog sits in warm water and seems happy, doesn't mean the boiling process hasn't begun.

I take your remarks about like those of one exposed to lethal radiation who says in the first week, "It's not so bad. I'm a little weak, but I'm keeping things down and my hair isn't falling out yet."

Some things were predicted (one world government, one world currency, one world religion, the Rapture, Christ's triumphant second coming), but other things were not, IMO like ridiculous inflation, nations leaders not really caring about their people, people trying to destroy their own history, etc. It can be easier to look down at the "water" (current events and current situation in this world) than to look at Who we need to look at, Jesus Christ.

I think those signs are a clear path to the one world order, one world currency and all those other things we know are right around the corner now.

Even though the one world government is coming, we know it will fail and the nations will still exist both during and after it. In fact scripture talk about events dealing with certain nations even in the brief days of the One world government. Even Armageddon is a war fought with many nations, even though a one world government is the head.

With so many things coming to fruition the Bible predicted 2000 years ago and it becoming so obvious now, it shows how hard men's hearts are and how far they are willing to go to deny the obvious.

Its more clear in 2022 than ever before the Bible is not a fake man made book, yet those who reject it are more militant in their denials that ever before.

True.
