For every action...

"The pendulum swings. Always has, always will. However, it is not suppose to swing this wide and hard. Time to slow it down."  

I have addressed this before. After two terms of Slick Willie, the country was deeply in need of a President who did not sully the Oval Office. A FLOTUS who would not throw lamps around the West Wing. So we elected a Christian Governor from Texas. That went okay until the terror attack - then George W. Bush became a wartime President.

After two terms and two wars with Bush, the country decided we needed a "transformative" President. Plus, Obama was the first President of mixed race. However, that did not go well. After two terms, Obama divided this country right down the middle. Rather than being more united, we became more untied.

Then came MAGA. Rather than having a junior Senator from Illinois with a paper thin resume, we decided to have a businessman with no political resume. All Donald Trump wanted to do, was make this country better again. Make it great again. Oh, and if elected, he wanted to declare war on the Deep State. The Deep State made up of globalists and statists from both parties. Trump thought the Deep State was a cancer growing within our government.

Then for four years, the Deep State fought back. They fought back real hard, and real dirty. So much so, Donald Trump was a one term President. Then to heal any scars from all that infighting, the country elected the biggest moron we have had since Jimmy Carter. And that brings us to right now.

As a citizen, I feel like the child of a couple who has been through six or seven divorces. Always fighting, never harmony. Some want Donald Trump to run for a second term. For many on the left, they hate that idea. The Deep State would continue its war on Donald Trump until either the Deep State was destroyed, or they destroyed Donald Trump. It would be very ugly for this country.

For those who know me, know that I am anything BUT a Trump hater. I thought he did wonderful things for the country. He could have done more, if he had a friendly Congress, rather than a den of vipers. That being said, for the country's sake and Donald Trump's health and safety, I think we need to move on. In 2024, we need two candidates running against each other whose names are not Trump, Clinton or Biden. 

More and more, I think Ron DeSantis is the person we need to run this country starting in 2025. I also think the Democrats will pick Gavin Newsom to run against DeSantis. It will be California against Florida. Which outcome would the country like best? The sinking ship in the west, or the newest golden state in the southeast. I think DeSantis would have an easy time articulating the benefits of the country having Florida type governance. Newsom on the other hand, would be defending the Captain of the Titanic, right after the ship hit the iceberg. 

I know many of my pro-Trump friends will not agree with me on this one. And I respect that. Like I said, I was pro-Trump before, and I think he did wonderful things for this country. But we need someone who is halfway between the counter puncher (Trump), and the punching bag (GW Bush). To me, that is DeSantis. Plus - DeSantis is a vet. A Navy vet. A former JAG officer.

The pendulum swings. Always has, always will. However, it is not suppose to swing this wide and hard. Time to slow it down.
