That moment when you realize you’ve just been made a complete fool of on national TV.
“Here in the US we are alarmed by the new calls to adopt Socialism in our country. America was founded on liberty and independence and not government coercion, domination and control. We are born free and we will stay free. Tonight we renew our resolve that America will never be a Socialist country.”
~Donald Trump-State of the Union Speech 2019
Well played Mr. President, well played.
Howdy and thanks for stopping by! I'm weirdly obsessed with individual liberty and feel it's not given enough credit as being a necessary factor for living a truly empowered and fulfilled life.
Whether it's self serving politicians who are constantly trying to make victims out of us, or the negative fixed narratives we impose on ourselves that limit what we can do, we are constantly giving up personal power over to some person or thing which ironically only shrinks our world further.
This blog is about sticking up for freedom and hopefully opening up a deeper conversation on what it's meaning is, how it enhances our own empowerment and why it's so important to protect.

I thought he did too Michael. As much as Trump gets under my skin at times I’ve always been willing to point out when he does good.

Yeah trish- how many policeman in socialist countries will run TOWARD a shooter bent on killing they in synagogues, such as the much applauded nan from Pgh?
The voters of tomorrow are so clueless bout SOCIALism, they think it’s free wi-fi or girls nite out, which produces such misfits as Icasiocortezio, or Camelharris.
Lol

They DO think it’s all about freebies, don’t they ColorStorm? It never occurs to them the required amount of power and oppression a government so large as to provide such goods must have. So clueless indeed.

I think I know exactly what Bernie was thinking at that moment. “It would be me up there if that bitch Hillary hadn’t rigged the primaries against me.”
Do you think the high approval of his speech might be the beginning of Trump acting Presidential from now on? One can only dream…….

Poor old jealous, grumpy Bernie, never gets a break! 😉
I hope it’s a new beginning for Trump. I thought he did a great job too on the the speech. Perhaps this new divided House reality will encourage him to continue on this way. The people sure like it and he likes being liked by the people so we’ll see.

Saw this on a friend’s blog: “The problem with socialism is you can vote your way into it, but you have to shoot your way out of it.”

Poor Bernie, honeymooned in Moscow and can’t make America like Russia. Oh well, he has millions and won’t have to worry about having it taken away by a tyrannical government. It just dawned on him.
Great speech by President Trump. He stroked the dems just enough so they cannot bitch too much except the baby killers were mad because he didn’t condone their ideology. Neither does almost all of the people in the U.S.
We will get the wall now and not have to cave on Daca etc.
Loved the 3 WWII Vets in the audience. Salute and standing O’s all good!

Bernie, what a character. Could you imagine if that man ever became President? To have to listen to that grump go on and on for four years would be almost as bad as his policies.
Yeah I thought Trump gave a good and much needed speech. Well done.

So Trump is scoring points on the Democrats. What is in that bill and whether Trump signs it will be critical. The State of the Union was masterfully played. I just hope we can continue that way.

Agreed Tom, his approval ratings are up from the SOTU which was a great speech, he needs to continue the vibe. I’m not sure about that bill, from what I’ve heard it doesn’t sound so great but I don’t know the details.
