Historic Vortex ?

June & July, what's up next ????

Some VERY significant anniversary dates occur across June & July in American history. The 4th of July, 1776, we declare Independence…June 26, 1876…Custer gets annihilated by Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull… July 3, 1863, Gettysburg and Vicksburg, the Confederates lose in both theatres of action…. June 6, 1944, D-Day, Ike takes it to Hitler and establishes a beach head.

All very significant…and none of them the end of the trail or end of the story. Things could have ended differently in each case for Americans…The Rev War, Civil War, Indian Wars, WWII…for us, for who we are today.

We are in a Presidential election year like no other in my lifetime. 1860 and 1864 were probably as fraught…and America survived both of those…but not without a hard bloody fight and a vision about what was at stake. Lincoln never took his foot off of the gas.

The “debate” on Thursday a week ago stunned all of us and has changed the landscape of this race. I was hoping for D-Day Joe and he did not show up. The TV “debate” put on by CNN was a farce. Lincoln & Douglass knew what a debate was. They actually debated…read it, it’s pretty rich stuff. You should not be able to lie your way through 90 minutes of TV air time and have anyone say that you won.

Biden’s team should never have given Trump the air time. He’s a serial liar who still will not admit that he lost in 2020. He’s a convicted felon (for the moment).

But they did give him the time and space…to be him. (what a joy for us)

I would think that 90% of the folks reading this know that he’s the worst POTUS we’ve ever had. But here we are.

The media, pretty much across the board (yes the liberal, enemy of the state media) are mostly working to make this a race that gets the biggest ratings it can. This is Christmas for the owners…more eyes, more clicks…more ads….This is better than the Super Bowl.

I’ve been there in the middle of a candidate meltdown. 3 times, 3 different candidates. One lost by 20 points and the other 2 won…but they melted down in the few days before election and most people were not aware. The one who melted down a month ahead, lost in a landslide and he was ahead by 20 points when he secretly went to Johns Hopkins Psych unit for some R & R. Once he was “found” it became my job to record a statement by him in a hotel room across the street from Hopkins that was to be aired on local TV in Hagerstown to prove he was ok. I was expecting just Don and his wife Nadine. What I got was 15 members of his family from 3 to 85. It was a shit show. We got the 1 minute statement. There were no second takes. Don looked very medicated and he slurred a little bit. I had to do a small jump cut edit to make it all work as well as it could. I liked Don and Nadine, they were sweet people…but the stress of losing his power got to him. His opponent was also a good guy. He served well as Mayor.

But this current race is not between two decent people is it ?

I’ve seen more the “sky is falling” than I’ve ever seen. More democracy is over. Well, if we let it be, it will be. If we stoke that fire..it will burn brightly.

Voters have elected dead people…Fetterman was not healthy, he won…

I can tell you from experience that Joe and his closest family will make the decision about continuing his campaign.

Whatever the Biden family decision is, we MUST support it. We MUST get out the vote to defeat Donald Trump. That is the goal. Just as beating the King of England, Jeff Davis and Hitler were the goals.

There cannot be a floor fight over who takes the reigns if it comes to changing horses.

That would be a mess of epic proportions.

There must be a consensus candidate…and in my mind it has to be our current VP if it is not Joe Biden. This is all above our pay grade. Please express yourself to your elected reps, not the media.

This is bloodless war and we must do what Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull did to Custer. They pulled their people together and focused on the job.

Happy 4th .This next election is for our children and grandchildren. Peace to all
