I've been so silent on here for so long that am certain the readership is very low, but am going to put some thoughts on here anyway, if for no other reason than documentation.
--For years the Democratic machine has been throwing open the southern border, and the reason has been generally known to increase the number of Democratic voters due to the gratitude of Latinos who have flooded across. How ironic is it that the voting bloc that increased greatly for Trump was - Latinos.
--Trump won this election in my opinion because people have to get groceries. Even people who can afford the current prices are aghast at how expensive things are. Grocery store prices tell the story of our current economic policy.
--I wanted to see what the buzz about "The View" was about. So yesterday, the day after the election, I tuned it in. Within five minutes the hosts were saying that Trump will be starting up detention camps. That was enough for me. I turned it off.
--Anyone with any thinking ability knows that for years dirty tricks, evil intent, and vicious words have been directed at the winner of this election. And Christian people know that anything that happens in an election is of God and is due to His will and intervention. This morning I read Psalm 64 and saw striking parallels between the contents of that psalm and the election:
Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint;
preserve my life from dread of the enemy.
2 Hide me from the secret plots of the wicked,
from the throng of evildoers,
3 who whet their tongues like swords,
who aim bitter words like arrows,
4 shooting from ambush at the blameless,
shooting at him suddenly and without fear.
5 They hold fast to their evil purpose;
they talk of laying snares secretly,
thinking, “Who can see them?”
6 They search out injustice,
saying, “We have accomplished a diligent search.”
For the inward mind and heart of a man are deep.
7 But God shoots his arrow at them;
they are wounded suddenly.
8 They are brought to ruin, with their own tongues turned against them;
all who see them will wag their heads.
9 Then all mankind fears;
they tell what God has brought about
and ponder what he has done.
10 Let the righteous one rejoice in the Lord
and take refuge in him!
Let all the upright in heart exult!
--And finally, this just came up on my favorites from a few years back, posted the day after an election when the candidate that I was very much against, won. I think that this is true whether my candidate loses - or wins.
