It Ain't Over Until It's Over!

Yankee's baseball legend Yogi Berra once said, "It ain't over until it's over!"  Naturally, he was talking about a game of baseball.  As any sports fan can tell you, your team can be down and even counted out, but that doesn't mean the game is finished.  Perhaps that legendary cry is the new cry behind Trump now as people continue to search for the reason "Why" in regards to what appears to be an election loss.  

Already the Trump Administration has filed lawsuits, complained, and even prompted investigations into the election integrity.   It's a fight that will likely last into December and will push the boundaries of election law, and hopefully reform, to the edge of the American conscious.  

Biden's team on the other hand is already moving toward January and a first day that promises to undo many things Trump has done, start strict gun law legislation, and promote an agenda that is fundamentally socialist in nature.  Biden, the media favorite, has already stood toe-to-toe with an AR-15 owner and basically told him he could kiss his gun rights goodbye.  As if that wasn't enough, "Dementia Joe" seemed ready to step outside and have a fistfight with the young man...a fight most are fairly sure security would have had to stop to save the candidate.  Make no mistakes, Biden is planning big and the Biden / Harris ticket has their eyes set on destroying the oil industry, destroying the 2nd Amendment, and likely propelling America into the "Dark Winter" he so famously referred to in his first debate with Trump.  Keep in mind, a "Dark Winter" would put more people dependent on the government for bailouts and it will put Biden in a position of handing that help out to Americans. 

So as Trump says it's not over, as lawyers scramble and as the media call's Trump's claims "baseless" perhaps the only thing we can be sure of as we move forward is "It ain't over until it's over."  In all honesty, and based on past situations similar to this, we can likely know that on January 21, Biden will move into the White House and Trump will move out.  

In the end, Trump will join history with Carter, and Bush in the not-so-recent past as being a one-term President.  Trump will have a choice.  He can go to Florida and quietly build his Presidential Libray, play golf, and enjoy retirement, or he can become a voice of resistance.  Who knows, he might just appear campaigning again in two years.    The only thing certain about Trump is that for him the phrase "it ain't over until it's over" applies to life and not simply a four-year term.  Trump has proven again and again that when he's down and everyone thinks he's done, he has a way of coming back stronger and bigger.   I personally don't think we've seen the last of this fighter by a long shot.  

The Final Day of Election 2020 is Almost Here!

Americans are entering the last two days of election 2020.  While there will be many battleground states where other elections will be fought, there is no doubt that the biggest election for the country comes down to two candidates.  Trump and Biden will be the race that dominates newscasts, reports, and updates for several hours, if not days, and will ultimately decide the direction of the country for the next four years.  

America has faced some great challenges in 2020...in fact, we are still facing those challenges in a damaged economy, a locked up Congress unable to agree on a way to help, and a pandemic with consequences not yet fully realized.  It simply is not a normal election year

We have a choice to make...you have a choice to make.  Do you want proven leadership that has met challenge after challenge, brought America back up in the world, brokered more peace treaties than any other President this century, or do you want to go with a 47 year, career politician who did little to help while collecting huge salaries for a "do-nothing" career?  

Americans have a clear choice...success in Trump and the opportunity to keep America great, or back to the same, old, routine politics which have stagnated this countries growth while giving its wealth and success away to countries like China.  If you listen to the media and the left, they would have you believe that Trump is a failure.  Well, that's an easy line to push if your friends around the world are not benefiting from America anymore.  

We know where Joe Biden stands - he wants to disarm Americans, place socialism firmly in American lives, play nice with China and other countries for his own benefit, and he wants lawlessness to be the norm of the day so the focus is off of him and on the streets.  For the first time in history, not a single police group or union has endorsed Joe Biden...think about that.  Not a single police group or union has endorsed Joe Biden.  Why?  Because the officers on our streets know, they see, and they can sniff out corruption when it's there.  Believe me, corruption is there and it is deep...anyone that continues to let the ANTIFA dot com domain point to his page without rebuttal, anyone that calls ANTIFA "an idea" is simply too blind to lead this nation.  

Donald Trump has told us where he stands.  Even further than that, he has kept his promises.  He made promises to communities, to the world, and to Americans working day in and day out just to get by.  He has put his money where his mouth is and not taken one paycheck from the government.  There is nobody in the media, the Congress, any party, or any person or nation able to buy him...Donald Trump is not for sale and they don't like it.  

November 3 is tomorrow.  If you have not voted, vote.  If your Trump-supporting friends in battleground states have not voted, call them, text them, email them and get them to vote.  Americans can not stay home for this election.  Do not take record numbers at the polls already as a sign Trump will win...Take nothing for granted and vote.  When the dust of this election settles, we will either move America forward toward greatness, or we will go into Joe Biden's "Dark Winter" that may well reach far beyond a four-year term.  You have to decide now.  

Americans Support President Trump Now!

In the now-classic film Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, the king, and his followers are all alone in the final battle when help arrives.  You may remember that in the final minutes of the battle, the king decides with his advisors to ride out and face the entire enemy army alone.  It's certain doom, but it's also the last chance to give his people hope and at least allow some of them to survive.  In those final moments, Gandalf arrives with reinforcements.  He makes a comment, "There stands the king alone," to which the response is "He is not alone."  The troops are then encouraged with the battle cry "To the king."  As you know, the rest is history as they soundly defeated the enemy and won the battle.  ( https://youtu.be/EApCLbgAE5E).  

As we come to the close of the 2020 election, we find November 3 quickly approaching.  We also find President Trump in much the same position as the king in the Lord of the Rings.  According to almost every poll, the media, the various newspapers, the Internet, and the Democrat party, the President is without hope.  For an election, this means they believe he does not have the support in votes to win.  The expectation is that the Democrats will have a tide of voters and that President Trump will be voted out of office.  When you listen, it's not hard to imagine Gandalf saying, "There stands the President alone..."  

At this moment, we, the voters, the silent majority, represent the army that arrived with Gandalf.  We have a clear choice.  We can retreat, hide in our homes from COVID and other fears, allow those who would intimidate us into shaming us into hiding, or we can declare loudly, "To President Trump" by voting.  

Make no mistake, friends... the Democrats have an army.  They are banging on the White House gates, and in the eyes of much of America, President Trump is almost standing alone.  Yes, the rallies have been great, the campaign headquarters are doing well, and there are boat parades and vehicle parades across the country, but that does not translate into votes.  The army that arrived in the movie looked good.  They rallied well, paraded well, and looked fantastic, but it was not until they wielded their weapons that they became great.  Your weapon is your vote.  Use it.  Cast it for Trump.  Vote.  

If on November 4, we wake up to the news that Trump lost, let it not because we failed to go to him in his hour of need.  He has stood for America for four years.  He has fought the fight, sometimes alone, for four years for you.  He has worked, been attacked, fought off false impeachments, attacks on his family, attacks on his character, and he has fought against lies.  According to the news, he now "stands alone."  Will he stand alone, or will you charge to the polls with the cry, "To the President?"  If you do, no matter what happens on November 3, you will have fought the good fight and stood by President Trump.    

Biden's "Dark Winter" Overshadows Hope in Last Debate

If you watched the debate, you are likely to have noticed that former Vice-President Joe Biden made at least a couple of references to COVID-19, causing a "Dark Winter."  Like many Americas, I initially thought very little of this reference, but then it began to pop up all over the Internet.  What becomes even more alarming about the comments is it actually references a government operation from 2001, a time Biden was very much involved with the government.  

Dark Winter was said to be conducted in 2001 from June 22-23.  The operation was a practice or mock exercise in the "What if" preparation for a pandemic of a smallpox attack on the United States.  The bottom line is that the operation was designed for practicing what might happen in the event of a pandemic attack of any kind on the United States.  Several private institutions such as John Hopkins Medical and others participated in the exercise and provided reports, statistics, and feedback to the government.  

While we certainly do not want to fall into a conspiracy theory group here at Texarkana GOP, the fact that Biden chose these words indicates that he expects one outcome.  Biden was trying to imply that more people than expected will die from COVID-19.  One thing is certain, the public can easily search "Dark Winter" and see the experiment information for themselves.  Biden seemed set to use fear, death, and disaster as the cornerstone of his campaign.  The message was clear, "Vote for me, or you're facing death and destruction."  

Fortunately, President Trump has had a clear and decisive plan all along.   When Joe Biden was yelling that President Trump was promoting fear, Trump was closing travel, setting plans in motion, having teams study the virus, and keeping the American people informed.  President Trump said many times that the deaths were projected to be over two million and that "One death from the China virus is too many."  

President Trump loves this country; he loves the people.  He did not set a "fear" and "destruction" rule for the day or promote it to the American people.  Instead, he promoted a response, unity, help, working together, and calm that Biden seems to lack.  President Trump did not yell, "Dark Winter." No, President Trump did what great leaders have always done...he promoted hope.  

A Democrat President during the darkest hours the United States faced during the Great Depression when people were starving, hurting, and crying out for help,  said to the American people, "We have nothing to fear, but fear itself."  That President projected calm, a plan, and pushed forward...America survived.  President Trump is following in those footsteps of great Presidents...he is projecting calm and reassurance.  

Remember, President Trump himself has faced the enemy and won.  COVID-19 struck at the leader of the nation, and he bounced back.  In the middle of continued attacks from Democrats, the loss of his brother, a full-blown political campaign, rebuilding a country, and trying to help people, Trump faced one of the deadliest pandemics we have seen in a century.  Like he has encouraged us, he faced it unafraid and overcame it.  

Joe Biden wants you to vote out of fear of a "Dark Winter."  President Trump wants you to vote out of confidence in the American Spirit.  I will always side with the fight, confidence, and burning spirit of the American people over the cowardly fear that would promote the horrors of a "Dark Winter." 

   

Trump Time!

Early voting has started in most places, and November 3 is right around the corner.  To put it bluntly, it's fourth and long, and we're down by a touchdown.  Polls show Biden has an eight to ten-point lead.  His lead is holding in battleground states.  November 3 is going to be a long night of watching results, praying, and hoping that America will not fall into the hands of a party with Socialist, economic destruction, and "Tax and Spend" plans coming.  Your time is now...it's Trump Time!

If you believe America is great and it can still be great, then you have a duty, an obligation, a calling, a requirement to get up, get out, and vote.   Your voice must be counted.  The Christian, the independent, the Republican who supported another candidate, the lover of American, the gun owner, and the right to life supporters are now needed.  You can not stay home and watch the elections pass.   You must vote.  

 On November 4, Americans will wake up most likely to know that either Joe Biden will be President or Trump will serve us for another four years.  We have two choices standing in front of us.  One choice will offer a dark, clouded, and uncertain future filled with next taxes, gun restrictions, and a socialist agenda.   The other choice offers a bright future with economic growth, continued focus on rights, a continued agenda that says America is still the greatest country in the world.  I want to wake up with a feeling of hope with that bright future.  What do you want to wake up to on November 4?
