PRESIDENCY | A Government Without Regard for Human Life

What’s happened to Teddy’s Party?

I’ve read historical articles on the Republican Party ending slavery and keeping the Union together when terrorists threatened to break-up the nation. We all remember is as the Civil War, and the terrorists were called rebels.

It’s easy to say that things were different in those times, and I’d have to agree with you, they were. There was no such thing as instant communication to disseminate false news that hasn’t been vetted but, false news got disseminated anyway. A lot of innocent people were ultimately raped, tortured and hanged, needlessly because of it. More were falsely persecuted because of it. But then, times have changed. Now, people instantly spread their views, opinions, and even threats via Twitter and Facebook now. Yeah, it is a different world. Even the guns are different.

When the Civil War started gunmakers were just introducing a pre-made cartridge for a rifle, which had just recently been invented. (Rifling is what gave Americans an edge in the Revolutionary War.) When the Civil War began, they had just designed a cartridge that a soldier could carry instead of having to muzzle load their guns to fire them. Now, the .22 caliber rifle I grew up with, can be rigged up with a bump–stock to turn it into a fully automatic rifle. Yeah, it is a different world, now.

Abraham Lincoln basically started the Republican Party before the start of the Civil War and ultimately the southern states, who all believed more in states-rights than federal jurisdiction, felt the need to revolt and secede from the Union. It seems that that’s happened recently in the past with a few states that didn’t agree with our former President and threatened to secede. I guess what their citizens wanted, though, was different and they are still a state in the Union.

By the time is turned into Teddy Roosevelt’s Republican party it stood up for those who didn’t have a loud voice in government and proved it by breaking up Trusts and Monopolies, showing that the Republican party did really care about the people. All of that seems to have changed. What happened to “compassionate Republicanism”? I can remember a time when Republicans cared about their constituents. Even when they didn’t, they could feign their care, with “compassionate Republicanism”. Things are different now.

Now they have a “me first” President, who’s proving to the world how a spoiled brat acts as President of the U.S. He’s making our country a country of spoiled brats who can’t see past their own nose when it comes to equality and justice. Their equality is bought with money and nothing else. What they’re actually doing to proving to the world how a German can do more damage that an earlier German by the name of Hitler that wasn’t even a true German. (He’s was born in Austria.) If he truly wanted to destroy the world, he could’ve learned a few things from this man.

Although, this may be the one thing that Donald Trump is remembered for; saving the Affordable Care Act with his tax cut. Now people will have the money to afford their insurance, but it is a shame that they won’t have much left for anything else. The real hurt will come when they see their Government shut down.

INSANITY OF COMPLICITY

Republican party — The Irresponsibility in the Capacity of Audacity in the Complicity of the Capacity and Audacity of the Insanity of the Presidency…thank’s all to our Republican Party

It’s easy for me to see just why this President acts like he does. It’s his insatiable appetite for his sugar in the form of bread in the diet of cheeseburgers that he keeps. He’s driving his Republican party to its demise. It may be fortunate to recover from his grasp.

Now that people have a resemblance of equality at least in their health insurance, most are realizing how good it is to have this benefit of the Obama era and thanks to a huge tax cut, most will be able to afford their coverage, now. I guess there is something to attribute to Trump’s era. Most of the people are much happier having medical insurance, especially those who couldn’t get it before. Now, thanks to a massive tax cut, they’ll be able to afford that insurance. Too bad it can’t be used for anything else.
