The Basis For My Political Belief System
Since I retired, I’ve had a lot of time to look back on how I’ve lived my life. I continually ask myself what I would like to do over that would have made my life better. What drove me to make the choices that I made? Decisions that determined how I’ve developed mentally and physically. Did I make the right choices that would improve my health and mental state? Heredity or Environment, which influences our thinking more?
What has had more influence on my life’s outcome? What causes our lives to end up how they did? “Is it heredity or environment that has had the most effect on our life’s outcome?” This is an adage that most of us have heard many times. I’ve concluded that our environment is the overwhelming reason for our successes and failures.
Heredity has more to do with being born with physical and mental defects that limit one’s ability to do the things that others can accomplish. These are the people we need to help. Fortunately, the majority of us are born with the ability to achieve success and become recognized as a person who cares about others.
I bring this up because our political belief system is a product of what we have seen and experienced growing up. Although it appears that some people never understand the plight of others, even though they may be blessed with intelligence had have been fortunate enough to get a good education. “Seeing is believing,” so they say. This is why I refer to YouTube and other videos in my books and especially on my website.
Understanding Why Our Environment Affects Our Beliefs
There are a lot of old age questions that I believe make sense once you understand their intended meaning. Number one is that “anything you do in excess will lead to a path of destruction.” This is mostly true, depending on what it is that you want to accomplish and how you choose to do it. Having an obsession that grows to a point where you will not listen to those who believe you are taking the wrong path.
It is people who follow this path of ignorance and self-interest that are destroying society in America. I bring up this point in my Posting “Too Much Is Never Enough.” This desire for prosperity is a result of your environment. Your upbringing is not something that is hereditary; it is your adaptation to your environment that is the problem.
Donald Trump grew up in an environment where his father had great success in real estate development Which was, of course, of great benefit for his family. He was blessed with the financial means to follow in his father’s footsteps, along with his full support that others did not get. Unfortunately, his brother chose to follow a different path, which didn’t please the father. You can read how this adaptation to your environment that is the problem with Trump’s vision. This is details in my revised second book on Trump’s Presidency.
Two similar sayings, which have a meaning that needs to be understood, are “might makes right” and “making fun of people isn’t funny.” These actions are a result of your environment that starts with sarcastic criticism and then bullying. You were not born with these beliefs that are destroying our great nation. This is where I have regrets in the way I blended into this environment. As kids, we all found it funny to pick on each other and laughed at the way the intended victim reacted to the “joke.”
These are the beginning steps to becoming a bully because winning over the attention of others makes you feel powerful. This feeling blinds you from understanding how the victim is affected by what is said. Of course, back when I was growing up, we didn’t have the massive media exposure that we have today. The harm your action caused to another, either mentally or physically, stayed within my circle of friends.
Through today’s technological advancements, our actions can and is, broadcasted to a widely diversified audience. Consequently, the exposure you get can cause great harm, whether it is intentional or not. Our reliance on today’s enticing technology for our socialization makes our environment that is a problem. This is details in my revised second book on Trump’s Presidency.
Donald Trump became president in 2016 because of his notoriety. People saw him as being one of us. This is the story my books tell. In order to see what it is like living in a country that is so very different than what you have always been condition to seeing, you need to expand your knowledge. This is why having exposure to other cultures is essential to evolving into the person God created us to become. As a fingerprint or DNA cell structure proves, everyone is born different from everyone else.
Does Trump Respect Religious Beliefs
I am a religious person, but not one who is excessively involved with one specific denomination. If I were unquestionably devoted to one belief system for living my life, I would never be able to develop the knowledge and sympathy for the struggles of others. Today, we are living in a society that has no tolerance for people who do not live the type of lives that we are accustomed to seeing.
This is an environmental problem created by those in the world who possess great power and wealth. Donald Trump is the personification of privileged thinking. He truly believes that he can rule the world to his liking and has the support of all those who want to be like him and live life the way he has.
Now is the time to learn about what has happened to American values. This can only happen when we work together to solve our differences. View my two postings on Trump’s Golden Age of America. This may give you a better perspective as to Donald Trump’s lifestyle and how his vision for America differs from mine.
Politics is not just black and white as it is today. It is a blend of many colors and needs to be treated in a manner that produces a diverse and harmonious rainbow of colors. Our government has always done an extraordinarily good job of navigating all of the worldwide injustices we have engaged in, up until now.
The deep state conspiracy theory is not what you may believe is causing America’s division. It is individuals who are filling our minds with fear of each other. Our entire government was never plotting against Donald Trump for whatever reason you have been led to believe! Since the turn of the Century, in 2001, we have let our fears guide our thinking. My website and books reveal why this is happening in America.
Today’s two most important political documents
The two most important political documents that tell the exact story of why our two-party political system has failed us. The first is the Mueller Report, which started with the investigation into Russia’s interference in the 2016 Presidential Election. This resulted in Trump’s being impeached and started the Deep State conspiracy theory that is now destroying the values of American Democracy.
The second, Project 2025, details exactly how the wealthy plan to continue disregarding our laws, wherein Trump successfully avoided paying any consequences for charges he was found guilty of committing. This project is designed to give the Executive Branch power over the Legislative and Judicial branches of our government by allowing Trump to do whatever he desires.
When you read these two very important documents, pay attention to what your Congressional Representatives say about what the truth is in what you have now been exposed to. Make them give you a better explanation for what they believe. We need to create more Town Hall meetings that are organized and controlled, so one can speak until finished without interruption.
Our government structure is changing in such a radical and chaotic manner that none of us is paying attention to how our government is spending our money. Read about how much is now spent on controlling the American people, militarily, technologically, and commercially. These changes were predictive of Donald Trump’s first term as President, as my books and website explain in verifiable detail.
Look at how Trump and his far-right followers are raising their financial chances at the expense of the lower and middle classes. Give them more power, and they will take it. Our government is raising a lot of money through discriminatory elimination of Federal employees (DODGE), people of color (Immigration), funding for institutions that they don’t agree with, and yes, Trump’s tariffs. All these changes are functioning out of control (Deregulation and Executive Orders).
Do we really want to continue along this path of destruction, beginning with Trump’s rebranding of our military philosophy from the United States Department of Defense to the “Department of War”? This is not the mission my military service taught me to want for anyone worldwide.
Our President brags about how he is so far above everyone else in the world. He has even stated that his word is the law and that Congress and the Judiciary have no right to question his authority. I hope that my website postings will provide the reader with enough understanding of why all of us are tired of today’s extreme political turmoil.
