CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JANUARY 28, 2019
EVERYONE IS PLAYING TO HIS OR HER BASE IN AND FRIM WASHINGTON. AND THERE RESULTS? THERE ARE NO RESULTS. JUST MORE BICKERING WHILE A PORTION OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS SHUTDOWN.
THERE ARE EASY SOLUTIONS TO ALL OF THIS, OF COURSE, BUT IF A PROBLEM – ANY PROBLEM – IS SOLVED, POLITICIANS WILL NO LONGER HAVE THJE ISSUE. HOW WILL THEY RAISE FUNDS FOR THEIR RE-ELECTION IF THEY ARE NOT FIGHTING WITH THE OTHER PARTY? WHY WOULD PEOPLE DONATE MONEY IF THE TONE SUBSIDED AND REAL DEBATES WERE HELD WITH THE GOAL OF SOLVING PROBLEMS?
THIS IS WHAT OUR MODERN POLITICS HAS BECOME AND THE REASON IS THAT UNLIKE ANY OTHER REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT AND POSSIBLY ANY REPUBLICAN, DONALD TRUMP FIGHTS BACK AGAINST THE LEFT. THEY’RE NOT USED TO THAT AND DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO OTHER THAN OPPOSE, OPPOSE AND OPPOSE.
AS A DIVIDED NATION, WE SEND DIVIDED REPRESENTATIVES TO CONGRESS. WE CAN’T MAKE UP OUR MINDS: SOCIALISM VS. CAPITALISM, LEFT VS. RIGHT. IF WE CAN’T MAKE OUR MINDS UP AS TO WHAT WORKS BEST, HOW DO WE EXPECT THEM TO? WHAT A MESS. I’M CAL THOMAS
