It has forever been a complicated, chaotic world. No reason to believe it can ever be anything but that. Even in periods of relative peace, say in small communities, someone always wreaks some kind of havoc. If you have to blame someone for innate human wickedness, you must lay it on a woman. Not only did Eve break God’s rule; she enticed, actually beguiled Adam to join her in the Devil’s seduction. Yes, Matilda, that’s when all hell broke loose. Adam could have stood his ground and told her to pound sand. But, no, he couldn’t bring himself to man up, reminiscent of today’s new crop of males who are thoroughly subservient to militant feminism. Eve would be proud to see how America’s women have put aside their historic reproductive roles to compete for power in both the public and private sector. For instance, you remember their influence as voters in 2020, when 57% of their population gave you four years of Joe Biden. And each election year, their numbers grow. Currently, the House has 129 women — 96 Democrat and 33 Republican. Could that gap be a clue? In the Senate, the disparity is 16-10. These statistics essentially say that it will be women voters who decide whether or not the Democrat Socialist Party (DSA) will dominate the midterm in a few weeks — and how many of Adam’s descendants will follow their lead. Of course, you already know how moronic teenagers will vote. Barring a miracle in North Carolina, Democrat voters (the majority) will send a quintessential sycophant to Washington who immediately will ask “How high?” when the DEM leadership says “Jump.” His record as Governor was hyper leftwing. He was 110% Biden’s man; and the people better thank God they elected a GOP majority legislature who prevented his radical agenda. Do N.C. Dems know his record? His women supporters do — bank on it. Most likely, the rest will punch the party ticket, oblivious to the fact that Cooper coolly brutalized all the people of N.C. In the end, however, what happens in the midterms will not change a complicated, chaotic world. In his remaining two years, Trump will stem the tide of Communism. If his successor prevails, if he/she protects the Constitution and if he/she continues the Trump doctrine, America will prosper domestically and internationally. Even then, check your history. America’s domestic wars will never end for an obvious reason. Half the population is willing to work, be free and responsible and support their communities. The other half wants to feed at the trough for cradle to grave government assistance. Pretty simple really. In a constitutional republic, everyone works, every healthy body has skin in the game, everyone is free to choose — and government gets out of the way. You can ask Cooper or any Dem for that matter — do you buy that, Guv?

Amid the rhetoric over midterms and worry over socialism, you and every other ordinary American should face an unpleasant truth. Capitalism has a serious flaw. Capitalism requires people to be free and self reliant. Capitalism assumes that free people live by a moral code that respects basic rights granted by the Constitution and Bill of Rights. But when highly regarded French diplomat Alexis de Tocqueville published Democracy in America (1835), featuring Capitalism, it was a mere shadow on the economic landscape. It did not truly exist. Despite the rapid industrialization of America, it could not be said to exist when in 1860, 40% of the population in 11 states was slave. It could not exist when people were not free. Capitalism in America was officially born August 20, 1866, after the Civil War ended. The birth of Capitalism followed the death of 650,000-850,000 Union and Confederate soldiers. it would only last approximately 75 years, spawning an unprecedented industrial revolution. These were the years of Edison, Tesla, Westinghouse, McCormick, Carver, Bell, Wright, Carnegie, Vanderbilt, Rockefeller, Ford and countless other entrepreneurs who not only amassed great wealth; but also, in the process, ignited a great Middle Class. And that single attainment defines both the vigor and virtue of true Capitalism. You can find all the criticism you want of despised industrial tycoons and their lust for power;  and while you’re at it, you can blame laissez-faire capitalism* for allowing tough labor policies.  But you have to ask: Who did the people expect to give America electricity, railroads, the telegraph and telephone, steel mills, flying machines, automobiles and farm machinery? Who would connect cities, mine raw materials and fuel economic growth? The fact is, individual entrepreneurs — yes, the hated tycoons, alongside millions of manual workers, small business and farm owners, profited together, to build a country unlike any other in the world. But, then, several events changed everything. The creation of the Federal Reserve.** The Great Depression. The buildup to WWII. The swift ascendancy of the Federal Government. The decline of Capitalism. And the advance of Socialism. The rise in what now is pervasive Federal jurisdiction was gradual. But it accelerated exponentially when Lyndon Johnson snubbed JFK’s admonition “Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country.” Tragically, Johnson replaced the theme of self-reliance with his Great Society. With that devilish stroke, Capitalism’s vigor and virtue were badly damaged. However, as bad as it was then, it’s much, much worse in 2026. Individual identity and self-reliance have given way to group identity and mass dependency. One month from today, the American people will decide whether to take the final step, fatally stab what’s left of Capitalism and usher in Communism — or whether to give DJT a chance to complete his mission. Don’t be misled. Both political parties are responsible for Federal overreach and outrageous fiscal irresponsibility. But the Democrat Party of today is not the party of FDR, JFK or even Jimmy Carter. It is a classic Manchurian Party*** — an imposter, advocating policies in direct violation of the The Constitution’s most sacred principles. Communism has a long, long, genocidal history. Take an honest look at it, Matilda, and run for your life. You admit Capitalism is on its knees but it still has a heartbeat — worth fighting for, and worth saving.

* A doctrine opposing governmental interference in economic affairs beyond the minimum necessary for the maintenance of peace and property rights.

** Arguably the single greatest cause of The Great Depression was mistakes in monetary policy from the Federal Reserve. The Fed increased interest rates. Choked the economy by making it cost prohibitive to get loans,  failed to provide liquidity for banks, causing massive bank failures, and followed a strict but needless adherence to the gold standard.

*** A politically influential person (especially a politician) who is secretly working for or controlled by an unfriendly power (such as an enemy nation or rival party).

A few days ago Trump visited Gastonia, NC., to stump for Mike Whatley. He followed the research playbook and hammered Roy Cooper’s crime stats. Unfortunately, Matilda, 99% of voters don’t give a rip that Cooper released thousands of offenders — many of them violent criminals, No, voters predictably care more about the gas pump and grocery prices. https://www.consumeraffairs.com/finance/cost-of-groceries-by-state.html Voters forgot that Joe Biden took a wrecking ball to America and now the herd blames Trump for not working a miracle in his two years at the helm. They think the Iran war is Donald’s personal video game and that Roy Cooper will put his sneaky smile to work in Washington to make them happy. You won’t bother reciting his eight-year record on crime. You can Google the New York Post. The paper reported that over 600 of those released committed serious felonies. Serious. That’s code for murder, rape, etc. You can find the the names of victims and their stories. The ruination of people’s lives is a Cooper indictment that he glides right past, confidently skating his way to D.C. His crime and Covid policies are twin bedfellows that he seems to live with rather nonchalantly. Quickly, however, you need to put your Covid* grievance to bed and talk about political facts.

Cooper & N.C GOP

In his farewell address, behind his signature smile, Roy Cooper bragged about progress, claiming responsibility for building “a North Carolina where people are better educated, healthier and have more money in their pockets.” He conveniently forgot to mention that in his tenure, the GOP majority legislature was at work doing the heavy lifting. Also conveniently forgot to mention that he vetoed 104 bills, and that half his vetoes were overridden. Why, pray tell, doesn’t he boast about what bills he vetoed?  *And, BTW, why doesn’t Roy proudly proclaim his Covid achievements? Hmm.

Cooper’s Overridden Vetoes:
The Fairness in Women’s Sports Act, which prohibited biological men from participating in girls’ and women’s sports.

The bill to ban gender-affirming care for children in North Carolina, including puberty blockers and gender reassignment surgery.

The Parents’ Bill of Rights, which enumerated certain rights of parents related to the education, health, privacy, and safety of their child.

The bill requiring sheriffs to work with federal immigration officials to detain people who are in the U.S. illegally. (there was an effort to enact similar immigration-related requirements in 2019-2022 — but Cooper blocked each of those efforts).

The bill to increases private-school voucher funding by $463.5 million over a two year period.

Cooper and the DSA.

The stakes in the midterm are real, not hypothetical. The stakes are not about North Carolina; the stakes are about America. You can do the political analysis: Recent polls say Cooper leads by roughly 10 points. Cooper’s war chest? $21 million. Whatley’s? $3.5 million. Cooper is convincing as he attempts to run as a “moderate.” It’s OK if you believe those lying eyes, but at least admit it when you do. Because no Governor was more closely allied with Biden/Harris than Cooper. No Governor followed the Biden playbook more judiciously. Don’t pretend Roy is anything except what he is (and will deny) — a loyal soldier of the radical Socialist Democrats of America (SDA). His actions as Governor prove it now. And perhaps prove it later, when he plays footsie with Ocasio-Cortez.

Midterm a Trump Referendum

Forget Cooper and Whatley. The upcoming midterm clambake is a referendum on Trump. He not only gets blame for Iran and related gas prices, but also blame for the general cost of living. So be it. He shoulders the blame without apology. Even his supporters are ignorant of how much he has accomplished in two short years. Even they have forgotten Biden’s misery index — and the enormity of his violations — violations the complicit Media ignores to this day.. Now Trump is in the crosshairs. You can start with his crime of loving America. Of closing the border to illegal aliens. Of reducing inflation from 9% to 3.4% (core inflation of 2.4% excludes food & energy).
Of keeping his promise to reduce the federal bureaucracy (over 213,000 & counting). Of declaring that his foreign policy goal is to see every nation sovereign, secure, self reliant and economically successful. Of eliminating Iran’s nuclear weapons capability and its funding of international terrorism. Of making war on drug cartels wherever they are. Of re-industrializing America. There’s much more — rooting out fraud, agreement with Denmark, etc.

The Ultimate Outsider

In the next two years, whichever party is in power, Trump will never fulfill his wish list for America. There just isn’t time to heal the destruction following 2020-23. And if the DSA takes congressional power, you will see a repeat of 2016-19. Likely, you will hear cries for impeachment. It’s pretty simple, really. Trump’s crime is he didn’t pay his dues. He is the ultimate outsider. He’s a patriot gladiator who hates socialism and the swamp. To be sure, the establishments of both parties will be happy to see him take a hike. When that happens, the Beltway boys and girls can get back to business as usual. Canada, England and the rest of the Continent will once again hype Climate Change, Green New Deal & WEF. And like gunslingers, the WHO, NIH and FDA will quick draw their hypos for the next mysterious plague. Take that to the bank.
