Oh, how the worm churns

One week after the General Election and, of course, votes are still being tabulated – only this time to see if the House becomes a super-majority or stays with just the majority of Republican members.

I can’t lie; I’m giddy as all get out. I’m not just happy – I’m ecstatic over the election results.

Four years ago, I didn’t have the same feeling I had this year. Four years ago, Joe Biden had claimed to be the president that would bring people together; he did anything but that once in office.

Day one, his pen was red hot from all of the executive actions he took; from opening up the border to stopping fracking, the Keystone Pipeline and hindering oil exploration. Our economy took a dive, inflation jumped and government hiring hit a keen stride in the jobs category.

Last Tuesday was a different feeling altogether. I’d been watching reactions of people across the nation to Kamala’s ridiculous word salads, inflation on everything from food to cars, and more. People were distraught and getting no help from Joe or the Dems.

Throw in two assassination attempts, hurricane Helene where thousands of people received little help from FEMA or were given no help if they happened to have a Trump sign in their yard, and people were done with the Dems and Kamala.

Now, crying rooms are in full use and Crayola sales are up after Trump shellacked Harris, Republicans took the Senate majority and are, at the time of this writing, within four seats of taking the House majority.

What’s interesting is watching the head scratching going on by the liberal media and others on how Harris could possibly have lost the race. And, most expectedly, how people are now racist, and every ‘phobe’ known to mankind – xenophobe, homophobe, misogynist, etc.

I had to laugh how some of the goobers on The View (from a snippet on Fox News as I don’t watch that ridiculous program) could accuse entire counties in Arizona of being racist. Arizona has a large Hispanic population – and, they happen to be at ground-zero of the illegal immigration assault going on in our nation.

The LATimes.com reported on Trump voters in Arizona, “They see an outsider unbeholden to a corrupt and rotten political system and brave enough to stake bold positions. They consider him fearless enough to defy the confines of political correctness. They view him as a vastly successful businessman, but possessing a common touch: a workingman’s billionaire.

“His victory brought euphoria, relief.”

To the relief statement, yes! My own feeling that the weight of the world was coming off of my shoulders when Trump won. As the owner of a small business, I struggle with figuring out how to keep the wheels rolling in my office; high gas prices, high costs of everything and totally ridiculous legislation being talked about – the straw that broke the camel’s back was just around the corner.

Now, I feel like a new lease on life has been given and I can’t wait to see what Trump gets accomplished.

One of my friends that I graduated high school with is an obvious liberal. She put a post on Facebook that simply said, “God help us all now,” after the election was called.

Apparently, she didn’t feel the ill-effects of an administration that didn’t care about the American people; rather, lining the pockets of cronies that are in the war establishment, and more.

People are sick and tired of what happened to them during the less-than four-year tenure of Joe Biden. They are ready for America to be first, not liberal agendas that do nothing for anyone but cater to weirdos and goofballs.

Trump is a man’s man; a shock to liberals that spent four years trying to convince America that hair on a man’s chest is something that should be stricken. It’s a breath of fresh air to see men waking up to the reality that they are men and can behave as such. Goodbye sissies; hello manly men! Enough is enough of the MeToo movement and how men, especially white men, were belittled into thinking they were sub-human.

For me, I’m super excited about the future. For Dems…I’m hoping they can grow up and figure out how to be productive for this country and not a destroyer of such.

The days of “unburdened” BS are over, now we’re moving on up to brighter horizons.
