Op-ed:
Compare and Contrast...The Present vs.
The Future
By: Diane Sori / The Patriots Factor /

“America will never be destroyed
from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be
because we destroyed ourselves.”
- President Abraham Lincoln, 16th President of the
United States
And Lincoln's ominous words sadly ring
true today what with Democrat leaders and their party ilk already having attacked President Donald J. Trump and his family on a
personal level even before he actually beat Hillary Clinton, and
have since day one tried their damnedest to undermine his presidency with lies and
innuendos the mainstream media gladly helped to perpetrate. And
know these attacks will continue on even after he leaves office as
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has promised to get Trump impeached no
matter how long it takes. But if now President-elect Joe Biden really
wanted Americans to stand united as one, as he so often claims, he would
tell Pelosi and her House cronies to drop this impeachment nonsense
so he can “build back better”...his words not mine.
“
Build back better”...what a
farce those three words are especially economically wise as they come
from the very man whose now proposed economic plan would fast track
our country
towards
bankruptcy, higher interest rates, higher inflation, and much higher
taxes for all... most especially for the struggling middle class. A
tax and overspend plan we as a nation can ill afford...typical of the
Democrat's socialist agenda via a wish list that sounds more like the
wants of Bernie Sanders and AOC than it does a wish list from a man
purporting himself to be a “moderate”...at
least he loves to play one on TV.
And here let's remember that U.S.
economic growth actually hit 4.2% before the nasty little now
politically weaponized virus from China invaded our shores and that
Americans were far better off both economically and foreign policy
wise under the leadership of Republican President Donald J. Trump
than they ever will be under the leadership of Obama's ever so “temporary”
puppet Joe Biden.
In fact, not only did President Trump
cut stifling business and corporate regulations which resulted in a
much lower corporate tax rate...which in turn brought foreign based
American companies back to the U.S...but that he also cut “We
the People's” personal taxes as well. Now on the other hand,
Biden's most irresponsible of economic plans would likely result
in companies fleeing back overseas... with increasing regulations being the catalyst coupled with up to four million jobs being lost...thus canceling out the four million jobs created under President
Trump which, by the way, resulted in the highest U.S. labor
participation rate ever recorded. But sadly, that participation
number will soon come crashing down as not only will Trump's
all-around tax cuts become but a fond memory, but Joe Biden also plans on
minimizing deductions and refunds relating to one's personal
taxes so be prepared to take home less pay week after
week after week.

Also becoming a fleeting memory is
that under President Trump's economic plan not only did the stock market soar
to its highest numbers ever, but America saw her lowest unemployment
numbers in decades with black and other minorities seeing their
lowest unemployment numbers as well...a numbers gain which, too, would
be canceled out for why seek gainful employment when Biden's plan,
with all it's freebies
, handouts, and perks would
actually take away people's incentive and desire to work. And when
incentives are removed from any economic equation all one is left
with is even more folks not just with their hands out freely taking
all they can get, but folks actually beholding to the government for
their very survival...an ever so dangerous parasitic relationship if ever there was one.
Welcome to socialism 101...welcome to what would now be President Joe Biden's “pork laden” version of Venezuela North.

And on the foreign policy front not
only did foreign countries respect us and American exceptionalism
once again after eight long years of the Obama/Biden administration
not only catering and bowing down to our enemies but at the same
time apologized for America, but our military presence from within
countries seemingly locked in a cycle of endless wars was greatly
downsized as President Trump started bringing our war-weary troops
home. Now Biden, on the other hand, has publicly stated that he will
keep American troops in Afghanistan while he's in office thus putting
them in harms way in a country that most decidedly doesn't want us
there. And while also successful in getting NATO members to start
paying their fair share regarding global defense spending, President
Trump rightfully moved our U.S. embassy to Israel's forever capital
of Jerusalem much to the Democrat's chagrin. But his crowning foreign
policy achievement was something many have long thought impossible as
this brave man helped broker peace treaties between the Jewish State
of Israel and her now
“former” Arab enemies for which he's
garnered at least two Nobel Peace Prize nominations.
And dare we forget President Trump
removed us from both the Paris Climate Accord (as in the monstrosity
of wasted taxpayer dollars by those kumbaya sorts who think they can
control the
“weather”)
and from Obama's ever so dangerous Iranian nuclear deal (The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action) that he and Biden
were so proud of...both of which Biden says he'll sign us back onto.
And then there's our southern border with Mexico now being more
secure than ever with over 450 miles of new wall or improved fencing
coupled with illegal crossing numbers taking a nosedive down, while
Biden and those loyal to him want those walls actually being removed...but of course
they do as it helps to garner more
"illegal" Democrat party votes.
And all the good things cited above
were done in but one term as President Donald J. Trump brought back not only
pride in America herself but in American ingenuity and the aforementioned American exceptionalism, all of which
can be seen in his
“Warp Speed” medical program that got
a COVID-19 vaccine to market in under a year. And what did the
previous administration bring to our country that the new
administration has pledged to continue on with but for America to be
turned into a socialist nation. And that comes replete with so-called
“identity politics” being the fuel thrown on the pyre of
partisan driven hate courtesy of one former president's words and
actions that were the catalyst for the violent renewal of
self-perceived racism that for the most part no longer existed in our
nation...contrary to what the BLM sorts say.

Also, let's not forget that “political correctness” will also stay the
mandated order of the day under a Biden/Harris administration, with “political
correctness” actually being what is in reality one-sided censorship
morphed to the nth degree...censorship aided not only by the media but by the "thought
police" known as Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. And the “cancel
culture” movement...an ignoble movement which started making waves by tearing down
or defacing statues of America's heroes...foolishly still believes that removing a piece of
stone and plaster will erase American history...will soon be
dictating to us what exactly can become a part of our nation's history
and what simply cannot. And know that “reparations” for
folks who themselves were never slaves will now, under a Biden/Harris
administration, become an integral part of our nation's
newly partisan decided history...and it's simply payback Democrats owe for the still huge percentage of black votes garnered.
And firearm ownership will become our
personal well kept secret for the all important Second
Amendment...the very amendment our Founders and Framers wrote into
the Constitution to assure a restraint was put on the power of the
government to interfere in our personal lives...will most assuredly see the
Democrats trying to place it on the ever proverbial chopping block. And whether the
Democrats are or are not successful in taking away our guns remains to be seen but know that the old adage “behind every blade of grass” has now
taken on new and ever critical meaning. But even if the
Second Amendment does stand as is, know that "aggressive" gun control measures as well as implementation will become a law not unlike an
athlete super-hyped up on steroids.

And while the picture of compare and
contrast that I've painted with carefully chosen words seems bleak,
especially with the House voting to impeach President Trump for a
record second time...ensuring that he will remain at the center of
partisan debate and political discourse long after he leaves office...the only saving grace, if you will, is that in the end I do fully believe
that President Trump will not only have the last laugh but that
history will be kind and herald not only his deep love of country but his many achievements done on behalf of "We the American People."
And I also
believe that not too long from now President Donald J. Trump will be
proven right about the election being stolen, and that many will be
forced to pay the price for what they've done as history also does have a
way of righting grievous wrongs. But until that time comes be prepared
for yet another four, if not eight, long years of hell especially
knowing that Joe Biden was never intended to be president for very
long...he's just a place holder for Kamala Harris being Barack
HUSSEIN Obama's defacto third term in office. And while this means
that America might indeed have a long and hard road back to what are our
constitutionally granted freedoms and rights, know that more times than not
freedom's quest is indeed something worth fighting, and if need be,
dying for. True patriots know this well...and to that I say “amen.”
