Yesterday was the inauguration of our 45th president, Donald Trump. His win was a great surprise to the liberals who had believed their own propaganda about Hillary's overwhelming victory. The conservatives were also surprised, but by the childish, almost third-world reaction of the losing party who refuse to be "Trumped". So on behalf of the deplorables, let me explain what happened. All we wanted was a president who:
- Put American interests before global ones.
- Supports an economic system that offers greater opportunities to the laborer than the lazy, and understands the goal is to create wealth, not redistribute it.
- Knows our prosperity isn't something to apologize for. We didn't steal it. We built it.
- Calls terrorism what it is, and not "workplace violence".
- Does not apologize, like a battered wife, to countries who attack us, as if we provoked them.
- Recognizes that Israel is our one friend in the Middle East, and the only nation on whom God has placed his blessing.
- Knows that we cannot placate enemies who want to kill us.
- Respects the principles upon which this country was founded.
- Understands that disagreement is not hatred, bigotry or oppression.
- Remembers that citizenship is a privilege, not a right, and should go to those who respect our culture and our laws.
Yes, many of us, most of us, wanted someone wiser, more humble and less vocal than Donald Trump. But anyone old enough to vote, is old enough to know we don't always get what we want, especially in elections. Whoever our choice might have been, God is sovereign, so we must accept and support the president we got. And all we really wanted was our country back.
