Here are some takeaways from the 2022 mid-term elections and the distinct absence of the big “Red Wave” some had predicted, and others had feared.

1. First off, and this ought to be abundantly clear to anyone who wants to look with an open mind and heart, and who's willing to take a hard honest look at themselves, Divisive politics fails to create any mandate for anyone.

We've shared this point on a number of occasions, and anyone who wishes to do their own research can quickly collaborate this for themselves, the last national “We the People” electoral (Was also a popular vote mandate) was when Ronald Reagan won re-election in 1984. George H. W. Bush won his 1988 presidential election with a sound margin, however, wasn’t anything like Reagan’s victories. And Reagan garnered a larger victory in his re-election than he did for his first term following the disastrous presidency of President Carter.

This begs to question what was it about Reagan, other than his policies, that galvanized such huge landslides? In our opinion, there were several factors that contributed to this. First, he had a set of values that he believed in, that he believed were distinctly American, and he never wavered from those values. Secondly, without compromising these values, he sought common ground, common values, and common issues from the opposition, and worked from there. He focused on the similarities instead of the differences, valuing the American Culture instead of Multi-Culturalism, the former is inclusive, the latter is divisive. During Reagan’s administration, Republicans were a minority political party. In essence, during the Reagan administration, America had a 3-party political system, though no one knew it. There were the Democrats, Republicans, and the now extinct conservative Democrats. Reagan found several key issues between the Republicans and the Conservative Democrats of the Bible Belt South and proceeded to accomplish a great many achievements. It is interesting to note that what used to be the Conservative Bible Belt Democrats are today the Republican base.

2. Second, no matter how successful Trump was with some of his policies in creating a thriving economy and achieving historical noteworthy feats which include energy independence, an energy surplus, and the lowest unemployment rates in American history for Black Americans, one cannot win the mandate or unquestioned trust of the American people by bashing any group of Americans. No matter what anyone may feel about other Americans who have differing opinions than ours, they are still Americans.

It is noteworthy that many of the greatest Republicans used to be Democrats to include Ronald Reagan. If one wishes to read the history of Reagan’s political views, many Republicans would be surprised to find that early on, he had views that were antagonistic to basic Republican values. It took Reagan gaining experience to discover this and have his values evolve. If Republicans constantly denigrate and belittle Democrats, how can Republicans realistically expect the next Reagan to migrate from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party?

3. Thirdly, no matter how disastrous the policies are with the current administration, there are still Americans who find something in the message carried by this administration that appeals to them.

In life, everyone bi***es, at least from time to time. Some obviously bitch more than others, however, everyone bi***es. Few go through the activity to attempt to find the solution. Divisive politics can win for an individual for a time, and a party for a time, however, divisive politics will always fail the proponent eventually. The last Republican strategy that wasn’t divisive was “The Contract with America” from the 1994 mid-term elections. It was a platform based upon what the Republican Party stood for instead of what Republicans stood against, and what the party promised to do if the party gained power. This propelled George W into office following President Clinton. Unfortunately for the Republican Party, they failed to follow up with this and returned to the status quo of attacking their opponents, and this led to Obama and the Democrats coming back into power. After Obama created a divisive environment for the nation, a powerful anti-government flood came in the form of Trump. Being business minded, he commenced to simply get to work, and called anyone in his way stupid, incompetent, or worse. What Trump failed to understand is while a 45% share of the market in business is a very successful business model, it is Armageddon for politics which requires a majority. It is impossible to foster unity with hatred and belittlement.

4. Our forth takeaway, the first charismatic individual who realizes that repeating what Reagan did, look for those issues that unit people, and run a campaign primarily upon a vision that anyone can believe in that is inclusive and available for every American, will become the first individual to win a landslide similar to the ones that Reagan had.

It is simple logic that if I want what Jacob Johnson has, all I have to do is the same thing that Jacob Johnson did. If a presidential candidate wants a landslide mandate victory, do what Reagan did, unit all fellow Americans. Stop trying to divide us into neat little groups. We are NOT Croat-Americans, German-Americans, Anglo/Saxon-Americans, Black- Americans, African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, or any other hyphen-Americans, We are simply Americans. And if you say that you are an American and that you love your country the same as us, then we are all Americans. United We Stand – Divided We [All] Fall.

This is what makes America great, we are a melting pot. And if you have read this far, then we’ll leave you with this thought; America requires both the right wing and the left wing in order to fly. If either the left wing or the right wing is broken or missing, America will crash and burn.

Do we see any evidence of this around us now?

Biden's call for an immediate oil reserve release in response to OPEC+ decrease in oil production in my opinion, is the result of a lack of situational awareness. With the war between Russia & Ukraine, and Russia's threat to use nuclear weapons is an unstable situation for American tactical and strategic interests. If we release our oil reserves now, and we end up getting pulled into a military conflict and oil resources become destroyed, the world's greatest military would be immobile because we used our emergency oil reserves for a non-emergent issue. Not a good consideration, Sir.

And none of what was just said takes the current China situation into consideration. The tensions with China are at an all time high, and escalating faster than ever seen before.

prices, in truth, it is Biden's and the Congressional Democratic policies of banning US Oil Companies from searching for and acquiring US Oil, becoming again dependent upon Russian oil, and realizing that the banning of Russian Oil has a direct impact on US supplies. And they want to blame someone other than themselves. This, my friends, is the taproot of the problems in our country today, failure to take responsibility for our own actions, and blame others for the resulting mess, and rationalizing that our proposed response will solve the problem when in reality we will compound the problem and make it worse.

Please pay attention and follow along with this mess, and pray that some rogue nation or terrorist group doesn't take advantage of the chaos and insert a nuke into the equation!

For anyone who was wondering, President Biden's approval ratings are the lowest of any American pre4sident's approval rating after the first year in American history. Reread the post below and recognize that we predicted it then. The Mid-term elections are going to be a repeat of 1994. Many members of the Democratic Party are concerned about this, and are trying to distance themselves from the Progressive Left, as they recognize the danger for their party, unfortunately, too late for the party. The question here is has the Republican Party learned their lessons from 1994 and the following years? Or will they attempt to proceed with a right wing fringe agenda?

If the Republicans were smart, they would embrace the strategies that have already proven dominating, and that is the strategies of Ronald Reagan. Seek common ground with average every day Americans regardless of political party, and seek a united movement. Re4alize that the main Republican Base now was the Reagan Democrats of the South. President Reagan sought the common ground with the then Conservative Democrats, and was able to move his agenda along, even with a minority in both houses of Congress at the beginning of his administration, and only one house at most. This approach not only enabled him to accomplish his goals, it enabled him to pragmatically solve a wide range of issues. And to top it all off, this approach converted Conservative Democrats into staunch Republicans.

This can be repeated, if a leader chose to act for the benefit of all Americans, and sought to unite Americans under one set of American values instead of dividing Americans by putting front and center those issues that divide us.

Our Beloved Republic now rests upon a shaky foundation. It is up to you, "We The People" to determine whether Our Beloved Republic is reborn, or crumbles to the ground.

We have already seen bloodshed within the confines of the House of Representatives because of the unwillingness of a faction to peacefully coexist with other fellow Americans, unwillingness to seek common ground, common interests, and in an instant, thrown over two centuries of tradition into the muck.

And now, just two days after this fiasco, and just days after the conclusion of two of the narrowest run off elections for senate seats in Georgia, the opposing political party, before the President Elect is even sworn in is now talking about violating the same two centuries of tradition and US Supreme Court Precedence in revamping and stacking the Supreme Court. What prevents the other opposing political party from following the same example when they come into power again? Because it will happen.

Anyone who believes that any political party today has any mandate from the American People is seriously deluded. America is more divided now than at any point since the 1960's, and all national elections are the closest they have been in the last two decades than practically any point in US History, for that length of time. America hasn't had a national mandate in a national election since the 12 year Republican run from 1980 through 1992 (See photo below).
Reagan won 44 and 49 states in his presidential elections with 50.7% and 58.8% of the popular vote with a difference of 9.7% and 18.2% in 1980 and 1984. Bush Sr won 44 states with 53.4% with a difference of 7.8% of the popular vote. Bill Clinton won only 32 and 30 states with 43% and 49.2% with differences of 5.6% and 8.5% from Bush Sr. However, when Perot is included, Bill Clinton had a difference of a minus 13.3% and .1% in 1992 and 1996. George W won 30 and 31 states with 47.9% and 50.7% with differences of minus .5% and 2.4% in 2000 and 2004. Obama did better with the popular vote and the electoral college, however, barely won half the states with only 28 and 26 states, 52.9% and 51.1% with a difference of 7.2% and 3.9% in 2008 and 2012. Trump won more states than Obama ever did with 30 states won, and 46.1% of the popular vote with a difference of minus 2.1% in 2016. And finally, Biden only won half the states at 25 with 51.3% of the popular vote with a difference of 4.4%.

When we are talking about 140 million voting people in the United States of America, those are very close numbers. The greatest number of states won in any presidential election since Bush Sr is 32, and that was Clinton in 1992, and then Clinton won 31 in 1996 along with George W in 2004. Next was George W with 30 in 2000 and Trump in 2016. Obama never won more than 28 states, and Biden and Trump were split even at 25 states a piece. So while we can all say that Biden won this election, if the political party currently in power now chooses to abuse its temporary situation, it will quickly see a repeat of history in 1994 when the Republican Revolution with the Republican Contract With America swept through America. And at that point, what would prevent them from repeating what the Democrats are considering doing now? What will SCOTUS look like in 2025? Will there be 150 justices on the Supreme Court of The United States of America?

When will the US Federal Government remember that it works For the American People? When will both political parties remember to act on behalf of We The People, instead of their own self interests? When will the US Congress finally pass Election Integrity Reform and require Government ID in order to cast a vote? When will the US Congress affirm the US Constitution as written, and pass Concealed Carry National Reciprocity? When will the US Congress acknowledge the individual rights of all American Citizens to keep and bare arms, without any requirement for permits?

These are just some of the issues that all Americans ought to be able to find common ground and become united on.

I’ve been watching the news all day. It didn’t take long for me to become disgusted enough to mute the volume. The big news item is how President Biden did during the news conference yesterday. When I heard and saw that President Biden claims to have exceeded expectations, my thought was “I’d hate to have seen what those expectations were!” I mean, inflation rates we haven’t seen since the 1970s, and we’ve been through many administrations from both parties and Congresses with many different political make-ups, a nation more divided now than when the narcissistic President Trump was in office, claims that if this president’s agenda doesn’t get through that he would question the validity of the midterm elections, which just happens to be the same claim that the narcissistic President Trump claimed because of his demand for election reform.

For the love of whatever God you happen to understand or misunderstand, please give me a break! Start with something simple, pass election reform which every party and their brother claims to desire and require a government issues Identification to vote. Simple. Then the quantity of election fraud would diminish even more than exists now. Next, stop changing the policies that work to your own just because you didn’t like them. They were working, leave them be! Consider changing those policies that are broken. The greatest glaring example is how this country portrays Law Enforcement! As President Reagan stated; It is time that we again reembrace the American Precept that individuals are accountable for their own actions, and that the criminal should be held accountable instead of blaming society. Stop blaming the car for the for the drunk driver, stop blaming the gun for the killer, stop blaming the LEO for the crook.

And most important, stop lying to the American People! I know that there are a lot of stupid people, however, most of us can handle the truth!

Are we fed up with the divisions in our country yet? Be the example of a true patriot regardless of our political affiliation. If we want a united country, then we need to follow President Reagan's example and look for common ground with everyone we come into contact with, and start from there.

For those individuals who feel that packing the US Supreme Court is a good idea, please consider this, it would set a tremendously bad precedent of which there would be no end. If those who are in favor actually get your wishes, what would prevent the backlash at the polls and the opposing political party from doing the same when that party is in power? Are we going to see the day when SCOTUS is comprised of 51 justices? Where is the line America decides not to cross? Do we really want to morph the American Jurisprudence System into an overt political body?

At what point will the true America wake up and reassert itself?

Our congressional Democratic Leaders are either evil or insane. There is a $15 per hour minimum wage embedded in the stimulus package bill moving along in The House of Representatives.

One definition of insanity is failure to learn from one's mistakes. Seattle has already tried this, and it killed the restaurant business in Seattle. Thousands of jobs lost and businesses closing, because the business could not afford the new minimum wage, and therefore the jobs that were there were lost.

Another definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. This is by far not the first time raising the minimum wage has had catastrophic results totally different than what was advertised. In fact, this has been the consistent result everywhere that the minimum wage has been raised in the last several decades.

If neither of these two cases fit, which would mean that those who pushed the raise to the minimum wage did in fact learn from their experiences and wish to move forward anyway, or that these are the results that they actually seek would mean that those pushing for the raise in the minimum wage are evil.

Because raising the minimum wage has yet to improve anyone's economic level of living.

How much hate does the Democratic Party have in order to impeach the President of The United States of America when there are only 7 days left in his presidency?

Does the National Leadership of the Democratic Party not recognize that they have pushed their opposition so far back into a corner with their intolerance that it is the intolerance of the stance of the National Democratic Party that is causing the the anger to rise to the boiling point with no where to go? The Capitol Hill Riot is just the beginning, if The Democrats insist on pushing their agenda of intolerance of the fundamental Conservative American Ideals.

This second Impeachment is a divisive act, and nothing more. There is absolutely no justification for it.

We call for Voter ID requirements to vote. This resolves all election integrity issues for all sides. Can there be a legitimate valid argument made against Voter ID requirements?

We don't believe so.
