Why Must You Explain Doing Right?

 

Recently Orlando Magic Forward Jonathon Isaac stood during the National Anthem prior to the game while all other players took a knee. Since when must someone explain doing the right thing?

 

Steelers Defensive End Stephon Tuitt recently explained why he stands as a proud American and will continue to honor his country and set an example for his children to stand for what they believe in.

 

In 2017 Steelers Alehandro Villanueva a US Army Veteran and former Captain chose to defiance of the team by standing during the National Anthem, was severely reprimanded and team shamed until he issued a public apology for defying other members of the team.

 

During an international competition of the US Women’s Volleyball Kelly O’Hara sprang into action to rescue the American flag.

 

US Women’s Volleyball team captain Megan Rapinoe did quite the opposite by dishonoring the nation she represented on foreign soil.

 

Answer me this: Since when has kneeling become the norm and honoring the nation, its symbols and traditions something to be avoided in the United States of America?

 

Every player who kneeled should have had to explain why they chose to be disrespectful before being terminated. I don’t know if the blame is totally on the players, after all they’re only doing what they see others do, right? Pier shaming is now the new normal in professional sports. Football players do it. Baseball players do it. Basketball players do it. Race car drivers do it. Volleyball players do it. I’ll bet even professional swimmers too?

 

This started after President Trump made a statement that those dishonoring the flag or national anthem should be fired after the Kapearnick incident on national television in 2017.

 

At that particular time in our nation’s history public display of national disrespect became acceptable. Did it begin at home? How can that be when Kapearnick came from a wealthy, privileged family? Did they fail to teach American history in his upper class preppy school? Maybe he’s simply a victim of white privilege?

 

Even the National Football League made a decision, as did the owners, coaches and managers of many professional sports teams to error on the side of disrespect by allowing political discord onto the sidelines, into the dugouts and even onto player’s uniforms.

 

It is time for everyone to stop allowing herd mentality to govern doing the wrong thing for any reason. The answer is simple, if you don’t like where you live move. If you feel oppressed living in the United States then go somewhere else with hundreds of countries to choose from finding a suitable place should be easy – don’t forget to bring and wear a mask.

 

Call me old fashion or a relic of the past but there are things you don’t do around me.

Don’t take the name of the Lord in vain

Don’t act stupid.

Don’t cuss.

Don’t chew.

Don’t go out with women that do.

Don’t mess with my family.

Don’t disrespect or abuse the elderly (anyone older than you).

Don’t mistreat animals.

 

Honor the United States of America

Honor the Constitution of the United States

Honor the President and Vice President

Honor the Flag,

Honor the National Anthem

 

Respect the symbols of our nation’s history (statues)

Respect mom and dad (grands too)

Respect brothers and sisters (everyone)

Treat others fairly and with the utmost respect

 

It may have been fig Newton who said for every action there are consequences.

Newton’s Law of Motion: To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction:

Disrespect has very real yet often unequal consequences. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Illiteracy Shackles the Mind

Illiteracy Shackles the Mind

 

Can someone be educationally illiterate or an educated illiterate? You know what I’m referring to a virtual know-it-all who knows absolutely nothing of which he’s claims. In the military they are the ones who rise to the top of their professional educational class, have checked off all the boxes and gotten them all correct yet when putting it into practice “hands-on” they fall flat on their face. We used to say they couldn’t walk and chew gum at the same time. Meaning they couldn’t walk and chew gum.

 

The same thing happens with political correctness. It is often smooth flowing words without engaging the analytical thought process. Someone might say something like “get yourself in gear by putting your finger in your ear”. Pretty soon someone else says it and others begin to chime in and then you have a mob walking around with their finger in their ear thinking they are getting themselves in gear. It might work for a little while until you try walking through a doorway, into a crowded elevator and someone pushes your arm to get the door closed. Closed door, open mind – literally as the finger protrudes into the ear cavity causing serious damage. Remember the woman who murdered her husband by feeding him drain cleaner and blaming it on President Trump who touted hydroxychloroquine? Whatever happened to her? Being illiterate doesn’t mean being stupid, quite the contrary, it just means being smart about the wrong thing.

 

See what’s happened with the political correctness craze, or should I say crazies. Someone claims ducks are offended by a Portland football team known as “The Ducks” and demands they change their name. Rather than some corporate executive or football coach explain the art of pounding salt, someone decides that ducks are being offended. In fact at football practice a flyover of offended ducks quacking madly “CHANGE THE NAME” in duck talk caused the water boy to have a social meltdown. So it is decided that the new name will be the “Portland Quakers”. That is until The Religious Order of the Quakers raises a ruckus.

 

Taken to the extreme the American English language will have to be seriously pared down because we have too many words that mean different things in other languages. In fact many of our words come from other languages.

 

But suppose we take things literally we’d have to stop calling it French bread unless it is made in France.

For sure French fries made at McD’s would have to be called something else too.

How about authentic Italian pizza, made in Brooklyn?

Popeye’s chicken couldn’t be called Popeye’s unless someone could verify that Popeye really made it.

Baby powder couldn’t be called that unless you could show powdered baby stuff in its composition.

Frankfurt, Kentucky would have to be renamed because it isn’t in Germany.

New York would have to be renamed unless you can show where on the map is Old York?

African-Americans could no longer be called that because unless they were born in Africa it is too offensive to claim to be from the African Continent, when you are actually from the American Continent and those two are vastly and geographically different.

All the names of American cities, counties, states and/or territories that are in a foreign language would have to be renamed to something uniquely American. There could be no Snake River winding across Idaho and Oregon unless it could be named after a non-threatening type of snake who is not offended.

 

Have you had enough? I sure have and that’s one more reason to get off this PC kick and start thinking of ways to make America a much better, safer and nicer place to live and raise a family. It’s too bad that every time someone raises the PC banter, he or she could simply be beamed over to another country and become their own problem?

 

Ask any new American citizen why they came to America and I’ll bet they don’t say to become Politically Correct and make everyone uneasy when I’m around. Conversely take any PC American and place them in a foreign country that they choose and see how far being PC takes them?

 

That’s why I say Illiteracy Shackles the Mind and Political Correctness is the manifestation of the disease of Illiteracy. Don’t just take my word for it. Look around and see for yourself. Do you want to be the one calling 911 because momma isn’t wearing a mask? Momma can handle a switch or a belt very effectively before the PC police can show up to rescue your sorry behind. It might just be time to drop out of charm school, leave mommas basement and get a J-O-B? – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Civil Unrest in Pre-Election America

minnesota violence 2020

Civil Unrest in Post-Election America

 

There are pictures circulating on Facebook that depicting 13 of those arrested in Portland were of public school teachers. I don’t know how valid or accurate that picture was so I didn’t use it. However it got me to thinking that if 1 teacher in 1 public school taught for 1 year or more having inserted communistic, fascist or anti-government babble into their classroom or into the school curriculum how many exponential future fascistic children would be running around with that stuff swirling in their heads?

 

If you go back to the anti-war protestors of the 1960s – 70s I’m sure there are a number who are now college and university faculty, adjuncts, teachers, professors, administrators or deans. Fast forward to our present day prestigious colleges and universities and you see the most anti-American, anti-government and anti-social behavior of their students and alumni.

 

American families have been lulled into thinking that our children must get an education to be successful in life. Jane and Johnny are sent away to “summer camps” for 4 years or more and expected to come back with a diploma and as a seasoned and highly successful member of society.

 

What happens at college is often far from an optimal educational setting and Jane or Johnny get caught up in the party scene of a 4 year “spring break” mentality, their advanced degree in “the mating call of the butterfly” has led to massive debt, no job prospects but individuals primed and ready to do something – anything. They are too “smart” for fast food, yet too dumb and without any real job skills and living in mom and dad’s basement playing video games that are geared to fighting an apocalypse where destroy everything is called winning. You use up all your ammo, wait or hack into the supply chain and refill your ammo supply. You die and simply restart as a new yet smarter fighter – you have become a super sniper.

 

An ad on social media is for snipers going up against “the man” and zing – you now have a mission. The problem with this new “job” is that it’s not a video game and the stakes are real, as are the consequences. Meeting up with other likeminded individuals out after dark, lurking around and waiting for that target of opportunity or the command from higher to attack to destroy, burn and attack some more is too much for the average “spring break” graduate to resist. Businesses and buildings are destroyed, set on fire and anyone in range is a target. When the police show up its “attack the police” for they are bad.

 

You think it’s a bit far-fetched? Think again. Someone is putting up big bucks to orchestrate the types and frequency of the rioting we are seeing in cities across the nation. The logistics of arming and moving an army is no small task. It takes coordination and lots of money. To move that army across state boundaries is a tremendous undertaking and it is also against the law if your purpose is to cause mischievous or conduct a full-fledged riot. There must be political connections. There must be coordination of effort, food, shelter and weaponry and all that cost money. I say follow the money.

 

The immobilizing of law enforcement must come from the top down. That means either somebody in DOJ, HLS; state or local agencies must be involved. What we know today is that all things are political due to the upcoming presidential election. We have heard very little to nothing of substance coming out of congress or by state and local officials who blame it all on President Trump.

 

Well here’s a news flash. This has nothing to do with President Trump, but it has everything to do with American’s who continue to vote in politicians who have no vision of a better country, but promise more free stuff for everyone. “Don’t worry we’ll tax the rich and they’ll pay dearly for it. Take from the rich and give to the poor”, sounds a lot like Robin Hood doesn’t it? It’s been tried and it doesn’t work. Not even scratching or winning on a lottery ticket can make you come out a winner. When it’s something for nothing, you usually end up with nothing.

 

Do you want to be a winner? Stop listening to losers (See that was easy). Hard work, dedication, and attention to detail, invest yourself in your work and do your very best at whatever you do. When you win, America wins. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Yes You Can Lead a Horse to Water

56608882_1123874557794618_3924807231811354624_n

Yes You Can Lead a Horse to Water

 

It’s kind of like “Yes Virginia there is a Santa Clause” only different. If I‘ve written one I’ve written a hundred articles about Democratic corruption in Congress and in American politics. The stories all seem to be the same old thing over and over again. The only thing new is the way Democratic politicians think they’ve discovered a new way to defeat Trump.

 

From the onset Trump went from Bling Bling to Zing Zing once he announced his intent to run not just for politics but for the highest prize in politics – the Presidency of the United States, after all he wasn’t even a politician and they probably thought he didn’t know how politics even worked. They were right about one thing for sure – Trump wasn’t a politician.

 

They were dead wrong by thinking Trump didn’t know how politics worked. He had been pulling their political strings for years as he used the political climate when it was to his political favor. When thrown obstacles by local politicians Trump even used mob backed teamsters to pull an end run around those politically smart politicians and got what he needed as Frank Sinatra would have said, “I did it my way”.

 

It was as if Trump prepared his entire life for this moment in time. Early on he raised his children not as privileged rich kids, although by American standards they most certainly were, but on the job in the construction industry at the bottom. When asked they would readily admit to going to work and doing the hard stuff the down and dirty work for many years before ever moving up in the family business.

 

When it became time he knew who would replace him at the helm and who he could rely on to become special advisors in the Trump Administration. He trained them well and they would never let him down as he pledged as president to never let Americans down.

 

America is on the eve of the 2020 presidential election and over the past 4+ years we have witnessed unprecedented number of personal and political attacks meant to destroy his reputation, degrade his family and sink his presidency. Politicians do not recover from these kinds of attacks, yet Trump is not your run of the mill politicians.

 

The latest attack on the Trump Administration came yesterday as House Democrats demanded the US Attorney General appear before them and answer truthfully their questions. What happened was vastly different than when Chairman Nadler gave his opening remarks meant to nail AG Barr to the barn door, as he unwittingly left the barn door open but forgot to bring the nails. As we saw in the impeachment of the president, the atmosphere in the House chamber was that of a circus. Democrats rapidly fired questions at AG Barr and as he began to respond, they would “reclaim their time” and do it again, then one after another, time and time again without providing sufficient time to hear any answer given, and often before it had been given. On the other hand Republicans began showing videos of the violence being perpetuated against Americans in cities across the nation, while listing the baseless charges from Democrats against the president and his administration and backing up the actions of the Trump Administration’s DOJ.

 

It is obvious that the Democratic Political Playbook contains but a single sentence or paragraph: “Defeat Trump at any cost, refer to Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals and use pictures.”

 

This entire article is my opinion and I’m very happy to share it with you. The Democratic Party in supporting Domestic Terrorist Groups like Antifa and Black Lives Matter and a host of other fascistic gangs are encouraging America’s demise as a Suicide by Proxy or more aptly called Suicide by Cop.

 

The political leftists have hijacked peaceful protests and quickly orchestrated rioting, burning, looting and increased attacks on innocent civilians, responding law enforcement as well as personal, private and public buildings in an effort to discredit the Trump administration and demoralize his supporters.

 

Mayors, city council members, and Governors have stood up with the lawless while abandoning their citizens. They have restricted and in many cases chosen to reduce funding of law enforcement. Some have restrained LEOs from using NON-LETHAL FORCE to control rioting crowds. That leaves two choices, use lethal force or do nothing! Governors have the power to bring in the National Guard to restore law and order, but mostly do not.

 

When ordered into rioting cities to protect federal property DOJ taskforces are resisted by the very mayors, city councils and Governors who failed to take appropriate action to prevent rioting in the first place. These are Democratic politicians who conspire together AGAINST the use of federal LEOs.

 

Keep in mind America is in month 4 of nationwide lockdowns, times of social distancing, masks wearing and combatting the use of life saving medications that can reduce the death toll from this COVID-19 virus that has been politically weaponized in this election year 2020.

 

As more Americans are tested for the COVID-19 virus, the death rate is far lower than expected. In fact it is much lower than we are seeing from the flu or from doctor assisted murder of aborted babies COMBINED.

 

Don’t be fooled into thinking that the virus is a hoax. The COVID-19 virus is real. The treatments are real, some are real good and some are real bad. Panic is not a treatment. Mixing politics with medicine is bad medicine. What is also bad medicine is putting your trust in a man or a medicine. Man will fail you. Man cannot heal you. Man cannot guarantee your outcome. Medicine cannot heal you and if used improperly it can kill you. Without God there is no hope. Place your trust in God, he has everything under control. Only God can heal your body and your soul. If you’re a believer there is hope, God can heal you or take you into his presence.

 

What will be interesting is how American’s respond to the increased panic and fear over the next 90+ days until November 3, 2020. Will they vote for the party promoting this panic and fear that has no answer, no plan or idea how to proceed going forward?

 

Or will voters vote for the party or more specifically the candidates who offer hope of a brighter future and have a plan to move America forward? More American voters are becoming “woke” to the fact that not everything you hear or read online, in the news or by third parties is in fact true. It is not possible to even trust the “fact checkers” at various social media sites as many times they are simply parroting political talking points. Yes you can lead a horse to water………I am the Real Truckmaster!

This is for All the Marbles

7-27-2020

 

This is for All the Marbles

 

When I was growing up guys had marbles, girls had marbles and we all had marbles. We’d trade marbles and play for fun or winner takes the other guys marble and sometimes we used to play for all the marbles. Dad used to talk about his marble tournaments at school and when he won he took the money. Today we’re too busy to bother with marbles unless they have a video game of using marbles to destroy someone else’s marbles?

 

During times of war there are rules that nations agreed to when waging war against another country. Armies were lined up dress-right-dress (a military term) and marched into battle. Each side took turns pelting the other side until the one left standing was the winner by default. The winner enjoyed the spoils of war, pillage, plunder and taking the losing sides women, children, livestock and valuables.

 

When the colonists declared their independence from England it meant war with the most powerful military force at that time, by a handful of farmers, hunters and shopkeepers untrained in military tactics. Trying to stand up and fight face to face was all too often disastrous and new tactics had to be used. A new kind of fighting by leaders like Francis Marion (the swamp fox) used hit and run to harass British forces and create chaos. Today we call those tactics covert.

 

For more than 240 years Americans have fought and died to protect the Constitution of the United States and to provide safety and security of American families at home and abroad. Men and women have fought and died to protect the rights of Americans to exercise those rights. We call that patriotism and those who stand up to defend us we call patriots.

 

What we are seeing happening in cities across the nation in 2020 is neither patriotism nor patriotic. There has been an undercurrent of discord and discontent festering for several years in various cities across the nation. Like a powderkeg that could go off with the tiniest spark the stage was set in Portland Oregon. Anarchists began “testing the waters” as a trial run waiting for that spark.

 

There were clear signs of their intent as they moved about openly and freely without interference as the mayor condoned their activities and actions by standing down law enforcement when their unlawful actions threatened and assaults on innocent civilians were allowed.

 

George Floyd became that spark. The powderkeg exploded and America saw the coordinated efforts of an organized entity showed up on the streets of Minneapolis Minnesota in force, overtaking and hijacking what began as a peaceful protest of Police violence turned into the death of a black man in police custody which turned into a full fledge riot. Portions of the city were engulfed in vandalism, lootings, burnings, assaults and murder in the name of Black Lives Matter.

 

Seizing the opportunity to exploit this senseless act of violence, operatives in a number of cities began their reign of terror with “protests of police violence” in the name of Black Lives Matter with domestic terrorist groups like Antifa and others who began creating Autonomous Zones like CHAZ later called CHOP in Seattle Washington where police were forbidden to enter and residence and shop owners were terrorized and exhorted for money and shops vandalized, looted and burned. The mayor of Seattle called them kids exercising their rights to free speech.

 

Soon other cities began to see “protest marches” in the name of Black Lives Matter that were neither protest nor peaceful. Vandalism, rioting, looting, burning with assaults and murder happening in California, Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Minnesota, Texas, Maryland, New York and a host of other places where Democratic Party leadership not only condoned the violence but enabled it by issuing stand down orders for state and local LEOs.

 

Many citizens say it’s clearly a case of exercising our 1st Amendment rights to free speech and right to peaceful assembly which are protected under the Constitution.

 

What is not protected by the Constitution is the “right” to commit violence.

A bank robber has the right to make an unlawful withdrawal.

An illegal alien has the “right” to unlawful entry into the US.

A woman or her doctor has the “right” to murder a baby in the womb.

Anyone has the “right” to disregard or willfully disobey any law of the US.

Non-citizens including illegals have the “right” to vote in an election.

LEOs do not have the “right” to arrest lawbreakers.

This list could go on and on.

 

Coming out of the chaos has been calls from the far left to defund and disband the police. It sounds crazy yet many who are uneducated, illiterate or simply misinformed think that is a great idea. Even elected officials are calling for it, while many are protected by LEOs. They call for gun control (taking away arms from lawful gun owners) while being protected by licensed officers and in some cases are seemingly doing nothing about getting unlawful guns out of the hands of criminals.

 

More recently Americans decided to conduct “Stand for the Blue” rallies in Denver, New York City and other places to show their support for LEOs. Adhering to rules covering the issuance of local permits several of these rallies were met with resistance from Democratic mayors who ordered LEOs to stand down and not participate (even while off duty) under threats of employment, career and family) while local offshoots of Black Lives Matter, Antifa and others crashed theses rallies causing bodily injury to LEOs and supporters.

 

In the case of New York City a prominent singer and legislator were scheduled as part of a Back the Blue rally. When it was announced they would be participating in the rally, the governor banned both from attending the rally, and ordered the health department to meet them at the airport and place them in 14-day COVID-19 quarantine. State police scheduled to protect the legislator were told they could not under threat of being fired. The rally was subsequently cancelled.

 

So tell me what part of this COVID-19 “pandemic”, the Black Lives Matter fixation by America’s Democratic Party politicians and the continual shut down of America is NOT politically motivated as we are now 99 days before the November 3rd, 2020 Presidential Election?

 

Don’t forget the Democratic Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi recently made a public statement that “Trump would not be president in 2021 – One way or another”!

 

National news media outlets parrot the same line when it comes to the chaos being brought to American cities “These peaceful protestors are being assaulted by Trumps Stormtroopers”. Democratic governors have petitioned the White House to prevent a Federal Taskforce from coming to their cities.

 

Democratic politicians are doing everything wrong for American citizens in their districts, cities and states. They are behind ending public safety, yet continually asking for more federal funds to rebuild cities that they have failed to protect. If there are no police, can American’s depend upon the politicians to answer 911 when they call?

 

Don’t tell me we are not in a war. It is a very Uncivil War and the anarchists are using street rules “there are no rules”. They are playing for all the marbles. Americans tend to follow the rule of law which began with the Constitution, based on God’s biblical standards while our nation is being played for very high stakes. Congressional Democratics are in a panic as they do not care what happens to our nation.  Their only concern is that President Trump not be re-elected even if it causes the nation to collapse.

 

I stand with President Trump in backing the men and women in blue as we will stop the violence and make American great once again. Remember it’s for all the marbles! – I am the Real Truckmaster!

In the Garden – A Biblical Riddle – What If?

In the Garden 1

7-26-2020

In the Garden – A Biblical Riddle – What If?

 

Genesis 2:7 – God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed the breath of life into his nostrils and man became a living being.

 

Genesis 2:21 – 24 – God took one of man’s ribs and made a woman. Adam said she was bone of his bones and flesh of his flesh. She would be called “woman” for she was taken out of man. They became one flesh.

 

Genesis 2:25 – Tells us Adam and his wife were both naked, and they felt no shame.

 

Genesis 5:1 & 2 – We are told that when God created man he made them in the likeness of God, male and female and he called them “Mankind”.

 

Genesis 5:5 – Says that Adam lived 930 years and then he died.

 

I saw no record of how old Eve was before she died as Genesis recorded the names of the males of mankind and occasionally that of specific women.

 

Here is a riddle for you:

 

When Adam and Eve were created, at what human age were they? It would appear that they were what we consider adult aged people, right?

 

Genesis 2: 15 – God put Adam in the garden to work it and took care of it.

 

Hollywood has created movies about what it could have been like and they used actors to portray a handsome buff male as Adam and a curvy beautiful female as Eve probably in their early to mid-20s and it’s obvious that man’s imagination can run wild.

 

Since mankind was created without sin and the body was meant to last a lifetime is it possible that God with his wonderful sense of humor would have created them at say the age of grandparents (50s – 60s) or even older? Say man with a potbelly and woman with a mature figure?

 

The converse train of thought would be to create them as babies or teenagers and watch them struggle to raise themselves until they became the world’s first human parents. It would seem like a waste, wouldn’t it?

 

Up until the time of the flood men and women lived to be a ripe old age of 900 + years old and had sons and daughters.

 

After the flood everything changed and lifespans became much shorter. – I am the  Real Truckmaster!

Life can Change in a Flash

Life can Change in a Flash

 

Recently after picking up pastry at a local supermarket I was headed home and had crossed a major intersection. About a block away as I was approaching a traffic light I was in the center lane of an 8 lane highway I saw it was green.

 

I noticed a homeless guy pushing a shopping cart full of stuff and his cart had legs (a dog). He was crossing against the light and pushed his cart out in front of my vehicle. As I came to a full stop I was thinking to myself what in the world, why did he keep pushing his cart across this busy highway. He had no intention of stopping. At that moment I was rear-ended by a vehicle coming up behind me. The driver did not realize nor was he expecting that I was stopped at a green light.

 

KABAM!

 

I had been resting my travel mug (hot coffee) on my leg and the force of the crash had coffee flying everywhere. I looked around and seeing no other traffic beside me I signaled and pulled over to the right and onto a side street to assess the damage. The other driver followed. We both got out. We checked to see if either of us was hurt? We assured each other that we were ok. We apologized and the other driver kept asking if I was ok, and kept saying yes, I’m fine.

 

I noticed his Dodge Dakota had a severely creased front bumper (didn’t go into the radiator) and my Toyota Tacoma had a “stamp of impact” where the Dakota had contact with my rear bumper.

 

That’s it! I told the other driver – no harm no foul. I didn’t need his insurance info, nor the $$ he offered. We were ok and that’s what mattered most.

 

Actually I was glad that I hadn’t ran over the homeless guy, his cart or his dog. That would have been a bit too much to deal with. I got home, delivered the pastries and then my nerves went KAPOOEY! I couldn’t even hold onto my coffee cup. I had to sit down and wait until my nerves steadied.

 

I had been wearing a light sweater and after I removed it I saw why the other driver was so concerned – there were dark stains all over the front of my sweater and the right arm. It must have looked like I was bleeding internally or something? But I guess spilled coffee has that kind of look too.

 

I’m thankful that God had his hand of protection over all three of us that day. Otherwise it could have been a different ending. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Rasta Man Down

Rasta Man Down

 

It was 12:34 pm on 23 July 2020 when shots rang out near Wright and Bremen in the Riverwest neighborhood of Milwaukee. The unlikeliest murder victim was 60 year old Bernell Trammell was easily recognizable with his dreads and his homemade Trump 2020 signs, just another of the “dregs” in society who was not afraid to talk politics or religion to those willing to listen. According to one friend, “He never tried to convert you or change you. He would tell you what he thought, listen to what you had to think and he would respect that.”

 

Bernell ran eXpressions Journal, was a Trump supporter and a Rasta street preacher as described in this article https://pmnightlynews.com/bernell-trammell-black-trump-supporter-killed-in-milwaukee/?fbclid=IwAR0ZJKS-VAFLvRC-rQ43hGMVNaY-DivB2A8J4obXg1zDlASkoNKDDLXLf5Y.

 

Amidst the violence on news broadcasts everywhere there were no local or nationwide protests against gun violence. There were no peaceful marches, not even a riot in his memory.

 

Outrage over the senseless murder of Bernell Trammell in broad daylight was voiced by Wisconsin GOP “No American should fear for their personal safety because of where they live or their political affiliation.” WISGOP called for the state’s district attorney and the US Attorney to open an investigation as the shooting may be politically motivated. https://www.oann.com/black-trump-supporter-fatally-shot-in-wis/

 

When will we stand up for what is right and stop the senseless slaughter of the innocent? It’s sad that Bernell Trammell’s name was added to a long list of victims of violent crime in America and we mouth the words “Black Lives Matter”……as we add another! – I am the Real Truckmaster!

When Trump Divided America

When Trump Divided America

 

You should know by now where my loyalties lay. I’ve written many a blog supporting President Trump and criticizing Congressional Democrats and Republicans and their media lackey’s for what they have done or more importantly what they failed to do when they had the opportunity to do good for our country.

 

To put things into perspective I am a conservative and for a very long time a disillusioned Republican long before the Tea Party. I voted Republican primarily because I saw nothing in either party that stirred my soul or sparked my interest since Ronald Reagan.

 

I voted for GHW Bush and although I didn’t agree with everything he said or did he was the lessor of two evils running for the presidency at the time. Being active duty I had little time to think about who to vote for or what platform they stood on. I was finishing up a career in the army when Desert Shield and then Desert Storm began. I anticipated being called back to active duty, but the war was over so quickly. Shock and Awe!

 

WJ “Bill” Clinton was a slap in the face and initially I couldn’t see how God could allow him to win the election. I learned to trust God and saw that Americans wanted what they wanted and in my opinion God let them have their way. How could a draft dodger rise to a state attorney general, become governor and then into the White House? The attack at Oklahoma City happened and what was the presidential response? You tell me? WJ Clinton was a good old boy, loved to talk and had a way with words and women. Remember Paula Jones and the intern? It is how God works, patiently and to achieve HIS purpose.

 

When GW Bush won the presidency I knew nothing much about him. People falsely called him a draft dodger because of his service as a pilot in the Air National Guard. They were wrong. Soon after taking office this president was tested like no other president since FDR. The infamous 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and possibly the White House changed life as we knew it in America. The War on Terror began with Bush saying, “either you are with us or against us” as we plunged headlong into the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The media began their routine of blaming Bush.

 

It set the stage for a Democratic victory in the 2008 election and just as Senator Hillary Clinton was to begin celebrations at the DNC convention, she was upstaged by newcomer Senator Barack Obama who took the nomination out from under her, and then the presidency over Republican Senator John McCain. Before she had time to pout Obama used the tactic of bribery by nominating her as his Secretary of State. She had no choice but to tout the party line, his party line until things got a bit out of hand and we had the 9/11 Benghazi debacle among other things. By 2015 it was once again Hillary’s turn and she had it all sewn up to take the nomination and then the presidency.

 

Enter political newcomer Donald Trump, who overpowered the entire Republican lineup and then the presidency taking the spotlight off Hillary just as she was set to celebrate (see a pattern here)? What happened next has never been seen before in American politics. It started after the election and as Democratic legislators boycotted the inauguration of the 44th President and merely 19 minutes after the inauguration the announcement by the media that the Impeachment process had begun.

 

Read this article posted on Facebook and think about her questions which haven’t covered the events of 2020. Here is the link https://www.facebook.com/RealTrumpNation/posts/2339785952819202 and I give credit where credit is due to Deena Loveland who posted her writing on Trump Nation’s FB page.

 

It raises some really good questions which I may include some of them in this article, but I have questions of my own which I have been asking for the past 4 years.

 

When did Trump divide the nation? Was it when he said he was going to drain the swamp?

Maybe it was when he said he was going to build the wall?

Or it could have been calling out corrupt politicians as “do nothing” Democrats?

 

Of all the events of the past 4 years it is those of the past 7 months that are most troubling. Democratic controlled cities and states have been run into the ground by successively failed leadership. California, Oregon and Washington states have home grown domestic terrorists taking political advantage of protests, thereby turning them into full-fledged war zones. Seattle’s Black Lives Matters and autonomous zones called CHAZ or CHOP; Portland’s Antifa gangs who rallied in a heartbeat to Minneapolis to stoke the fires of racial division and chaos.

 

The inaction of failed political leadership has created unsafe living conditions for thousands of residents of cities across the nation springing up out of the unrestrained political chaos. All while Americans are restricted in their own homes while mayors and governors send LEOs to root out those who refuse to wear facemasks, while letting the rioting mobs roam freely. Cities like NYC have a catch and a no bond release in effect. Before the paperwork is completed lawbreakers are back on the streets committing more crimes against the unsuspecting public.

 

Political power has further corrupted the most corrupt legislators in the nation as they jockey for political position in their quest to replace President Trump in 100 days.

 

So tell me again when was it EXACTLY when Trump divided America? – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Choices, Choices, Choices

 

It’s Saturday morning  as I think about what’s been said about money making the world go round, but I say that choices keep us guessing and constantly on our toes. When you wake up in the morning, do you get out of bed on the left side or the right side? Which foot touches the ground first? Does it matter? Do you put on shirt, pants or socks first? How about shoes, left foot or right foot first?

 

When choosing a breakfast meal, do you want cereal? What kind of cereal? Do you want milk and sugar? How about toast, wheat or white bread? Do you want pancakes, buttermilk, butter, syrup or honey?  Would you like a fruit bowl or applesauce? Maybe some juice, apple or orange? Coffee, strong, medium, weak, black or with cream and sugar – how many?

 

We have conditioned ourselves to make life so complicated and it doesn’t have to be. Many times I may skip breakfast or grab a slice of leftover pizza and eat it cold (I can have if finished before the microwave has time to heat it up) it’s no big deal.

 

When going to work do we walk, ride a bike or drive? What route do we use, old established or new one? Do we park near the entrance or far away from it? Do we bring our lunch or plan on take out? Do we eat alone or with friends or coworkers? After work do we take the same route home?

 

While at home do we sit down for supper together with family or eat alone? Do we read a book? Do we watch television alone or with family? Do we socialize with neighbors or not?

 

Every aspect of our lives is made up of choices. Even shopping is it Walmart, King Sooper or Safeway? Who has the best prices or more selections? Which one is closer? Is closer better and why? When is a better time to shop?

 

I seldom go to Starbucks because of the choices? When I do ask for coffee I order regular brewed. And still they ask, fill it up or save room for creamer?

 

Sometimes I just want to open the cupboard and eat what’s on the shelf. – I am the Real Truckmaster!
