Enthusiasm makes the difference. The Republic is saved.

That’s almost 50/50, because a dead Republic cannot be saved by elections or humans at least.

Aesop, check out why people kept a low profile back in 2001-2012.

2018+ Age of Conspiracies

So the King Throne image was very useful back then to foreshadow what Trum would face in DC. Kind of hard to make sense trying to talk about DC as a corrupt intrigue court back when people were going ELECTIONS ELECTIONS DEMOCRACY REPUBLIC… all the time. Heh heh, yeah America’s democracy, oo rah.

Drain the Swamp and MAGA or via MAGA!

Hold on people, the Swamp is normally not alive, full of evil, and does not normally fight back. Think of it more like an Imperial Byzantine court where you have the King but also the Shadow King, the Shadow prime minister, and various assassins. They might say or think, “Trum is too tough to be assassinated on twitter”.

Yes, I would reply, yes on social media he may be nigh invulnerable.

The Deep State never needed social media to strike you down. If DC wants you dead, you’ll be a corpse and everyone will be clapping at how the SS got rid of a terrorist domestic style with prejudice. But District of Columbia obeys America’s citizens: people would retort and think. District of Columbia obeys Columbia.

Alan F.,

The night before the 2012 election I went to a small chapel to pray. …I still remember stepping outside and the feeling that came over me. I’m not a particularly dramatic person (and, unfortunately, not always very religious), but the entire environment had a strong air of, “you’re on your own this time.” It wasn’t vengeful. It was a sense that the cavalry wasn’t going to be called this time. We were destined to sleep in the bed we had made ourselves.

“Can you tell me why we all personally struggle with providing for ourselves, staying in relationships with significant others, educating our own children.. with many mis-steps along the way, yet we so readily believe we have the answers for the rest of humanity? How do people convince themselves they understand how all others should live their lives?”

Simple. We believe that our lives are complex and unique, and that other people’s are simple and uniform. Partly that’s due to the fact that we’re aware of our own situation’s subtleties due to proximity. Partly we’re just that arrogant. Oh, and partly, other people’s problems are obvious to figure out because they’re boneheads just like we are and make obvious mistakes.

[quoting] Thank God we’re not electing a king.

Whoops, too late for that. Once Hussein became your Messiah as a dead republic and democracy decided it as your Rule of Law, whoever comes afterwards inherits the throne.

As a follow-up to your post above and mine following. Don’t think of Buffet as an ideological Democrat. He most likely is registered that way because he sees is as a pathway to greater influence.

It’s hard not to be an ideological Dem in America (and other commenters point out some of Buffett’s biography), but I suspect this is the foremost principle.

It’s pretty much the same reason Donald Trump, as a businessman, was a Democrat before morphing into whatever he is now, and he was very up-front about why: you pay who you need to, to get the job done.

Should be Warren Buffett–two ts–not Buffet.

That’s the problem with humans.

This earth has needed a purge of evil for some time now.

Daughter Susie has her own foundation in Omaha and I bet she has close to 30 employees. The mission is to improve Omaha’s public schools. I know for a fact that there are not 30 people at the HQ for the Catholic schools. The high schools and grade schools are all very lean.
