Anxious, Depressed, Dejected and Woe'd

 Life is hard when you ave high anxiety, a love of history, and an obsession with keeping up with events.

I have 270 emails backed up in my inbox in the last few days and none of them contain good news. I may just delete them for sanity's sake. I am what is known in America as an elite. I can read and write above a highschool level, have a knowledge of history, a passport am a permanent resident of Ukraine where I lived for 15 years and have visited a few countries including Russia, China, Kazakhstan, Panama, Turkey, Bulgaria, Poland, Germany, Czechia, and UK. If I live long enough I will add more.

America is in the grip of ignorance beyond description. The following is from an acquaintance in response to something he posted on Facebook.

We tolerated President Obama for 8 years and kept quiet.  Here is my issue with the whole, “let us all be a United States again” that we heard from President Biden.  For the last 4+ years, the Democrats have gone and scorched earth. You have salted the fields and now you want to grow crops.  The problem is 75+ million of us have memories longer than a hamster.

• We remember the women’s march (vagina hats and all) the day after inauguration.
• We remember the 4 years of attacks and impeachments.
• We remember “not our president” and the “Resistance…”
• We remember Maxine Walters telling followers to harass us in restaurants.
• We remember the Presidents spokesperson being kicked out a restaurant.
• We remember hundreds of Trump supporters physically attacked.
• We remember Trump supporters getting Doxed, and fired from jobs.
• We remember riots, and looting.
• We remember “a comedian” holding up the President’s severed head.
• We remember a play in Central park paid with public funding, showing the killing of President Trump.
• We remember Robert de Niro yelling “F" Trump” at the Tony’s and getting a standing ovation.
• We remember Nancy Pelosi tearing up the State of the Union Address.
• We remember the total in the tank move on the mainstream media.
• We remember the non-stop and live fact checking on our President and his supporters.
• We remember non-stop in your face lies and open cover-ups from the media.
• We remember the President and his staff being spied on.
• We remember five Senators shot on a ballfield.
• We remember every so-called comedy show turn into nothing but Trump hate fest.
• We remember 95% negative coverage in the news.
• We remember the state governors asking and getting everything they ask for and then blaming Trump for their problems.
• We remember a Trump top aid verbally assaulted in two DC restaurants.
• We remember people banging on the Supreme Court doors.
• We remember that we were called every name in the book for supporting President Trump.
• We remember that Hollywood said they would leave after Trump was elected but they stayed.
• We remember being called Nazis
• We remember being called Deplorables
• We remember being called Fascists
• We remember our sitting President calling us "garbage" and Kamala (and the media) trying to tell us to "get past it because Biden doesn't matter anymore"
• This list is endless, but you get the idea.  My friends will be my friends, but a party that has been on the attack for 4 long years does not get a free pass with me.
• Join me in supporting President Trump as he gets America back on track

There is a reason for this level of ignorance in half of Americans. Your education system sucks. But it maintains a ready supply of Republican voters:

Here is our proposal for an 11th Province. Then I could visit my blogger firiends in Maine, including HCR
