    There’s acts of kindness and people doing unselfish things all over.
    (The legacy media complex need not apply)
    Quite a few working in industry and manufacturing are accomplishing all sorts of improvisational invention or modification of products.
    Leadership and inspiration, it’s not going to fail because of me mindset, can do thinking, the statist quo will wither from the passion of people who never say die.
    Mr. Trump has not by one tiny iota backed down or expressed anything but a positive can do attitude, he takes action in everything.
    Thats my America. What I was born into and grew up thru.
    Nobody or nothing can take that away. Nobody can tell us who and what we are.
    This is where the heroes are.
    It is the dirt people who ever effect positive change in this world.
    The proofs right there all around us..

    the disease is globalism
    reject the modern world
    get back to basics
    family traditions faith tribe community history science
    it is the effective cure

    Well and truly said, Mr Carson. Talk about “green shoots” – the green shoots of a still vital American ingenuity are everywhere we look!

    Even folks “on the other side of the aisle” who live in the real world are saying that Stay Home is restoring family values and resetting their priorities.

    The President has done a fine job of providing for those who need help and reassurance. Yes, congress went overboard, but if we are going to have debt, might as well be spent on Americans. He will, God willing, have 4 more fully productive years in which to knock down the debt and bring American thrift back. I have every confidence he already knows how he will do it, and has contingency plans for each step.

    Here Here Tina.
    It certainly is wonderful to know about all the solidarity and people becoming more united.
    The globalists modern world is for the birds. I genuinely see them as the real disease. Maybe as you allure to nothing is so bad it ain’t good for something, and more.
    Word is home schooling is having a most positive effect. If only that was the only positive, it’s worth going thru this pandemonium.
    If as Patrick Henry said about smelling a rat, there are elements involved in a concerted effort to use a virus as a means to accomplish ulterior objectives, like much of what this element attempts to impose upon our lives, it fails against the good nature of good folks. Classic case is backfires of unintended consequences like the growth of Home Schooling, which is such an essential part of the rebirth of traditionalism, family values indeed.

    I love the open source insurgent nature of all this grass roots my best foot forward the glass is half full solidarity.
    What comes to my mind regarding the Pole’s and what they accomplished by their Solidarity movement. After all, November the 8th, year of our Lord 2016 was the greatest color revolution I believe in history. 64 million Deplorable’s, a determined indomitable plurality. Bet you, Ol Sam Adams, that critical thinking rabble rouser would say “Thats What I’m Talking About!”

    Tina, think about it for a second, there was a million, min a million polite peaceful humble Tea Party people showed up, showing up is very important, it can not be overstated, everything was employed to diminish that display of motive power, in particular cover up and distract from the solidarity and unity of hearts and minds. Regardless, and here’s my point, just because the 5th column made it go away in the history of events, in no way made that solidarity go away, and in fact it showed back up in 2010, again an all hands effort to stymie that plurality, again Lois Lerner and her ruling elitists weaponized the IRS, the Tea Party then naturally went to their ground game, and elected the “God Emperor”, it’s been Ave Trump Ave! Ave!, Ave Trump! Ave! ever since. After all, we are a culture out of our western Christian Greco/Roman history. That circular feature if history, what old is having is new again zeitgeist all but guarantees the rebirth of what you are saying about family values. Self evident? Inevitable? Ordered Liberty is in it’s infancy. Ordered liberty is evolutionary more than it is revolutionary, one’s elemental one is a feature. Nothing like adversity facing the nature of folks of natural born liberty to bring outs whats best about us.

    I’m as enthusiastic, as optimistic as you are. Appreciate you and your comment Tina.
