The year 2020 was a year that will be remembered for many decades to come. From a great economy, massive job growth, record setting stock markets, peace deals around the world, deregulation, and a positive outlook for the future of country.
Just few months into the year we were graced by unjustified riots and the politically motivated Covid-19. Cities like Portland and Minneapolis went up in flames while law abiding citizens lived in fear and incompetent local governments allowed the mob to rule the streets while defunding police departments.
States and cities went on to shut down businesses, put people out of work, stifle free speech, and made criminals out of law-abiding citizens by enacting draconian rules and calling them laws. Covid-19 became one of the biggest political footballs of 2020 with the quarterback Anthony Fauci in charge of the fear mongering campaign while controlling the false narrative playbook.
With little facts behind it, states went on panic mode; mask mandates, social distancing, and many other weird and unfounded methods to stop the spread of a virus. Of course, despite these crazy measures, the virus has continued to spread, and for all we know, it may become just a part of our lives like the seasonal flu. Nothing more than an act by government to control and dictate how American’s ought to live their lives.
The government managed, in a few months, to strip American citizens of their dignity, independence, and self-worth, by creating a welfare state. Paying healthy people to stay at home while bankrupting local businesses over a virus with a 97% rate of survival and little science to back it up. Surprisingly, Americans have staked their future on the media instead of facts and common sense. Nothing like getting your medical advice from Don Lemon or Chris Cuomo.
But the biggest whopper of 2020 was the Presidential Election. I have never seen voter fraud of this magnitude since I cast my first vote in 1992. I always read and hear of voter fraud at a smaller scale and credited antiquated systems for these flaws.
In 2020, this voter fraud machine was well oiled and coordinated. While Republicans were whining about frivolous stuff, the Democratic Party was concocting the biggest coup in American history via the ballot box, right under their noses.
State legislatures and Secretaries of State were cooking the rules months before the election, it was not a secret. Obviously, the Republicans underestimated the will of the Democratic Party to steal this election and waited until after the election was stolen to complain and file lawsuits against unconstitutional measures. The United States Supreme Court refused to hear these cases and rightly so, this issue is not a judicial one, but a legislative one.
We love to go around the world telling other countries how to conduct their business and how to conduct elections, but we cannot get our own straight. Perhaps we should have employed the services of Jimmy Carter to monitor our election. This has been an embarrassment of major proportions and the world is watching.
Foreign governments understand the importance of American power, but also see what is going on and how the armor is cracking. Meanwhile, China is on the sidelines, watching and planning, in the event the “American Empire” finally falls.
I had the opportunity to travel the world, and I never thought America would become one of those many third world countries I visited. The things we have seen on television for the past year are things that I used to see reported in foreign countries.
The United States is self-destructing, and I really do not know if there is a way to stop it. Washington politicians are self-serving individuals and if they can cling to power, they could not care less about our well being as a country and as citizens. The government thinks that by throwing money we do not have and creating a welfare state all problems will be solved. This Republic was founded with the idea of small government, but since the sixties, the government has grown so much they believe they are the answer to all our problems.
What happened to American pride? What happened to feeling productive? What happened to American exceptionalism?
One thing I know, America has gone from a Constitutional Republic to a Banana Republic.
