Just about half the population of the United States is experiencing a great deal of anxiety this Thanksgiving.  The remaining half are suffering from an abundance of joy.  There are three main reason why this stark difference between the two halves of our population exists.

Those on the political left are beside themselves with dread right now.  They believe all of their rights will be stripped from them.  They are convinced that the economy of the United States will utterly and totally collapse.  These Progressives believe that women will be denied needed medical  care.

Those of us on the political right know with certainty that President Trump will restore all of the rights that were greatly eroded away, such as freedom of speech, free exercise of religion, and the right to bear arms, under the Biden Regime.   We know that the economy of the United States will rocket forward out of the stagnation caused by the ruinous policies of Biden and Harris.  As for the stuff about women not getting needed medical care, we know that is absolute bilge.

Democrats are in such a bad state mentally because they exist exclusively in a progressive echo chamber.  All of the news and information they consume comes from left wing sources, all of which shovel nothing but propaganda.

Those on the political left are indoctrinated and programmed.  This is done to them under the guise of receiving a college education. 

The political left does not believe in objective truth.  All reality is relative to them.  To them truth is fungible.

The half of the population that is experiencing dread and anxiety this Thanksgiving are doing so because of they are unable to distinguish between the real universe of objective truth where the United States will prosper under Trump and the fantasy universe created by progressive brainwashing where the United States will become a hellhole.   

The internet has been buzzing with news and analysis of President Trump’s proposal to cut 2 trillion dollars from the federal budget.  This Townhall article contains the best analysis I have yet found: The DOGE Initiative Is Clearly Needed but It Is Not Enough

President-Elect Trump recently announced his intention to create a Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) that will be led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy. This will be an external initiative to identify ways to improve the economy, efficiency, and hopefully the effectiveness of the federal government from an organizational and operational perspective. Stated differently, it seems to be an expedited and expanded Grace Commission type effort with a reporting date of July 4, 2026, which is America’s 250th birthday. 

This initiative is much needed and long overdue. In fact, I called for a Government Transformation Initiative over twelve years ago. An initiative designed to streamline and simplify the organization of the federal government, attack fraud and waste, devolve certain functions and activities to the states, leverage technology, and implement modern planning and management practices, including human capital practices. 

The DOGE can help to shed light, create heat, and make recommendations to improve federal government operations. Its recommendations will need to be sent to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and designation regarding, which can be done through an Executive Order, which would require legislation, and which would require a Constitutional Amendment. 

The last paragraph of the quote highlights the main limitations of the DOGE.  It lacks teeth, requiring many improbable actions before significant cuts can be made.

Restoring fiscal sanity and sustainability will also require a comprehensive review and reassessment of current mandatory and discretionary spending programs as well as tax policy. Attempting to perform this type of review and reassessment cannot be done on a piecemeal basis through the regular order. Congress cannot even pass the annual appropriations bills on time! 

While we need to adopt more pro-growth-oriented policies which can help to ease our burdens, our fiscal gap is too great, and our financial hole is too deep to simply grow our way out of this challenge. Tough fiscal choices are needed sooner versus later. 

Republicans in both Houses of Congress need to put on their big boy pants start doing what should have been done many decades.  They need to eliminate each and every federal bureau, agency, and department that is not directly by the Constitution.  The entire administrative state must be eliminated.  This will require legislation which RINOS will balk at.

Every time the Republican Party gains control of Congress they perform rather badly.  Individual Republicans are elected to office when they promise to support individual liberty, free market capitalism, and the Constitution.  Thanks to the Republican Party establishment they usually fail to deliver.  The Republican Party establishment wields way to much power over what takes place in Washington DC and it is exceedingly corrupt.  The Republican Party establishment is the reason why the Republican Party is the stupid party.  That cabal of elites cares nothing for Conservative principles. All they care about is power.  They are far more to the political left than those that vote for Republicans.

During President Trump’s first term the Republican Party establishment in both Houses repeatedly undermined President Trump, stabbing them in the back over and over again.

Conservatives on social began calling for the selection of a true Conservative as Senate Majority Leader immediately after it became clear that the Republicans would gain control.  As you can see from this article, After Trump Landslide, GOP Senate Votes For Business As Usual, they were ignored

Republicans elected a reincarnation of retiring GOP Senate chief Mitch McConnell to lead the upper chamber on Wednesday following former President Donald Trump’s overwhelming win last week.

Sen. John Thune of South Dakota was promoted from Republican Senate whip to majority leader on the second secret ballot with 29 votes in a contest against Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, who received 24. The two lawmakers edged out a challenge from Sen. Rick Scott of Florida, who only captured three more votes for his candidacy for leader compared to his previous challenge to McConnell in 2022. Scott had run two years ago after McConnell funneled scarce campaign resources to win safe seats in the midterms while competitive candidates in key states were stripped of funding over their opposition to the incumbent Senate chief.

Senator Thune said the right things upon being selected: John Thune: Senate GOP ‘Excited’ to Put Trump’s Agenda into Action

Just got off the phone with [Donald Trump.] Senate Republicans are excited and ready to get to work implementing President Trump’s agenda on behalf of the American people,

We have a mandate from the American people, a mandate not only to clean up the mess left by the Biden-Harris-Schumer agenda but also to deliver on President Trump’s priorities,

We will make sure that the President and his team have the tools and support that they need to enforce border security laws and to remove the violent criminals who are wreaking havoc in every one of our states. We will work to make America prosperous again by streamlining the bureaucratic machine and overturning costly Biden-Harris regulations, and we will work to restore American energy dominance, not just our energy security, but energy dominance, which will lower costs and bolster our national security.

I do not believe Senator Thune will follow through on any of President Trump’s agenda.  The Senate will be the same circular firing squad.  I hope I am wrong.

Today I feel a profound sense on elation.  It began around 10pm election night when Pennsylvania and Wisconsin began to turn in favor of President Trump.  The elation blossomed into full euphoria when I checked the election results after I woke up and saw that the Democrats did not pull off another 4am steal of the presidency.

If the Democrats had stolen the election I would have felt a profound sense of loss,  I would have been in a deep state of mourning because it would have meant the end of the United States as Constitutional Republic.  The fundamental transformation of this nation into a third world Socialist Democracy would have been complete.

There is no way Kamala Harris could have pulled off a legitimate victory.  I was not worried about that at all.  She is the worst candidate to ever run for president, even worse than Biden.

We all should take a few days to celebrate President Trump’s victory against overwhelming odds.  A few days is all we can spare because there is so much hard work to be done.  We have to fix every single circumstance that led to Joe Biden’s installation in the White House.

The legacy media suffered a tremendous loss of face with the victory of President Trump.  A significant percentage of the population proved to be immune to their constant propagandizing.  Much more needs to be done to inoculate the population against the excrement they shovel.

The unholy alliance between teacher’s unions and the Democrat Party needs to be addressed, along with the left’s stranglehold on higher education.

Election laws in all of the States need to be tightened, especially in the battleground States..

We also have to repair all of the damage done by the Biden Regime.

There is so much more to be done and so little time to do it.
