Trump's Results Great, How He Achieves Them Not So Great, Say Many

 

Polls show most people like the results of President Trump's actions and policies, but not the way he goes about achieving them. In fact, the simple majority claim to dislike the way he goes about achieving the results more than they like the results themselves! Amazing. Well, guess what? The reason he achieved these results, when so many others couldn't, is because of the way he went about achieving them!

Is it possible the majority of citizens are now utterly unable to connect cause and result? Actions and behavior to outcome? Apparently, roughly half the country is spectacularly stupid or batsh*t insane-- espousing suicidal softness and empathy for everyone and everything but reason, sanity, achievement, tradition, history, and conservatives.

This isn’t the 1950s—or even the 1980s. Sadly, Marquess of Queensberry rules no longer apply to the political realm…if ever did. Democrats never miss a chance at a low blow or cheap shot. They never tire of the fight and revel in dishonesty and chicanery. Republicans who refuse to fight back in a similar manner are not taking the high road, they are guaranteeing the demise of the country and the people they were sworn to protect. Yet, despite all evidence of criminal wrongdoing by Democrats around the country, Republicans steadfastly refuse to ultimately hold anyone responsible or accountable, no matter how great the crime. Tim Walz? Jacob Frey? Keith Ellingson? Ilhan Omar? Mayorkas? Brennan? Clapper? The Clintons? Swalwell? Schiff?! Anyone?! Bueller? Bueller?

There are only three possible reasons for this, as not all Republicans are blathering idiots, despite their performative outrage: 1) they are utterly incompetent, 2) they are not particularly disturbed by these crimes and abuses of the American taxpayer and are just as compromised and bought off as Democrats, or 3) they, too, prefer style over substance/results.

That’s it. There is no more. No other possibility. Get right with that fact.

If our “leaders” refuse to hold each other accountable, we must do just that.

Because results must trump style…or the republic is doomed.
