Hi fellas, just wanted to blow off some steam for a bit here it will disclaimer: I enjoy my life, I have a wonderful family amazing Friends a very nice job and I'm just overall blessed and happy which I am eternally grateful for. there are challenges along the way obviously but I love those challenges and fully embrace them. Although some of them might suck, I know in the long run that these challenges are only to help me learn and provide a wonderful opportunity for a learning experience. With all this being said, however, I am so fed up with politics. First off, I have seen so many friendships and family Dynamics ruined over the past year to, because of politics. Politics is one important facet of life but it should never get to the point where people are continually arguing and fighting over it because number one it's only one part of life and number two they really have no control over the situation other than voting in local and national elections. Once they cast their vote, there is literally nothing they can do when loser draw for their candidate this should not be happening okay families and friendships should not be ruined over something like politics, which is not breaking any laws and only exemplifies our first amendment rights.
I also want to talk about how it's not one side responsible for America's current current demise, but have both sides are responsible. Notice how I've said current demise I truly believe, that we will be able to get out of this mess, because as Americans we have overcome so much in our brief history and through it all we've come out better and stronger and more united because of it the West, for example, need to be not so trigger happy, to cancel a person product or idea which which counteracts their viewpoint. In order to refine yourself and to become more more approachable for others, you need to be more respectful that people can say and make mistakes and it's in its part of life who are we to think that we are perfect specimens and beyond reproach if the average life span is 80 years and you think that you're not going to say or make one mistake that you're great how those 80 years through the hell are you kidding. We need to work at the overall body of work of that person or company or idea before we can cancel them yes, a serial killer should not be condoned and should not be forgiven of it of his or her wrongdoings. However, it took me off a couple months ago when Jack Nicklaus posted on Twitter that he was supporting Donald Trump. It did not piss me off that he was supporting Donald Trump, he is fully allowed to voices opinion on the account that he is not harming anyone in the process. But but people wanted to cancel this man because of his support for Donald Trump they do not care, about what a wonderful father, husband, golfland pissed, social philanthropist and he has been over the last 80 years. Instead, they have canceled him and shut him down. This is one of the biggest downsides that has transpired recently among the Democratic party. The rights, however have done just as bad of a mistake. By totally dismissing the fact that there is a pandemic going on or at the very least heavily minimizing it's effects and implications, it has caused a huge political divide in our country, and rightfully so. I've known in seeing quite a few people pass away or have long-term effects from this virus that would normally never have gotten sick from the flu. Just because Donald Trump put a damper on the virus and its implications, it doesn't mean you should be a blind sheep and follow everything he has done and supports. I won't get into all the reasons why Donald Trump was toxic for the Republican party, but long story short even if you supported his economic policies and implications, because that was way you voted him for comma he feel miserably with bringing covet awareness to the trumpers. The biggest thing I want to point out here fellas, is that both sides have been somewhat responsible for our temporary demise. So, I ask you fellas how the hell do we fix this mess. Well here is my solution, we need to look back when America was prosperous how we handled the political situation. I know that for example when Reagan Clinton Bush and Obama were at the helms they did a great job of bringing both sides into it with a bipartisan nature. He saw instances where the opposing party respected at least a few things and if you decisions which that president did. Also, the people who voted for the respected party, also could recognize some mistakes and downfalls that their president made period where I believe we've gone wrong now is our All or nothing approach let me explain this All or nothing approach it boils down to the notion that no matter what my president does, I will support him. And whatever the opposition does, I will not condone it. E even if my party is making the mistake and the other party is trying to remedy the situation, I will still respect my party more so because I don't want to act like I'm submitting and acting like a traitor to my side. that's another thing I want to touch on too, is challenging your own party should not be looked at as being a traitor, if we want evolution to occur in the United states, we need to evolve in our respective parties. Challenging the status quo should not be looked at as negative or disowning that person, it should be looked at as trying to learn and grow for the future. I truly believe, that if both parties would criticize their differences for the good of the people and recognize that submitting to the opposition is not losing but rather gaining and winning because we are helping out the vast majority of other people. So let me touch on that let's hypothetically say bad the Republicans and Democrats both yield to the other party and say yes I agree with that particular statement or with that particular policy, it shouldn't be looked at as oh our side is surrendering, it should be rather looked at as this is wonderful where uniting together despite our differences and how in everyone is coming together. I believe that one of the main reasons why we're in this mess right now, is the fact that mainstream media plays such a huge role in brainwashing their respective parties the political divide among the mainstream media is certainly not as severe as it is now and, it trickled down into the viewers of what they believe. If a republican watches Fox News, they will think that that Donald Trump should be idolized and worshiped and have his feet kissed the rest of his life, while seeing me see and CNN are the worst scum of the Earth ever. If a Democrat watches CNN it boils down to Orange man bad. Yes Trump has been horrific for this country, but at some point we've got to move on and recognize that just because Donald Trump was horrible it doesn't make every other Republican on Earth horrible. At the same token, you can't disown every Republican who vote who vote for Trump, because number one they might just look at the political affiliation and not know all the implications of what he did as president, and number two they might be looking at it as the lesser of two evils bottom line, is we should not judge this person for a decision that they made one pin marking on a ballot should not determine the integrity in the motive of that person over their entire lifetime. As I said earlier the person who exemplifies this is Jack Nicklaus. A wonderful man, wonderful father wonderful friend amazing golf ambassador who has been disowned by millions of people just because he is fully legally exercising his first amendment right. He's not putting anyone in harm's Way he is not forcing you to respect his opinion he was just simply putting out his opinion for awareness and thinking that maybe what he is saying could potentially change your mind. Bottom line, is being loving towards the opposition should not be looked at as a bad thing but you knowing together and being bipartisanship is the only way we are going to fix this. What are your thoughts fellas? I'm sorry I was so on winded, it just I had to vent that. I am just so sick, of politics overwhelming and consuming everyone as I said earlier politics is an important part of life, but it's not everything in life. There are so many wonderful family
people who we haven't met who have opposing political beliefs in US and we just have to put aside our political differences and see that wow these people are simply wonderful as long as we don't talk about politics. I'd love to hear your thoughts on remedies for this too. Because we have to be able to fix this mess and not have the attitude of oh he's he said he said he's right he's not right blah blah blah. The bottom line is we need to come to a census and fix this even if it's not ideal, for our own party, what is better is if we can just come together with respect not name call, not cancel each other for one thing that we've said over a lifetime of 80 years. We all deserve forgiveness we all deserve redemption and we all deserve a second chance. Thanks for reading and stay blessed fellas. You all mean a ton of me thanks
