I just wanted to take a moment and unload my never before expressed bewilderment and confusion and enthusiasm for the fact that it feels like i have a president now.
I am a long time Ron Paul activist, delegate, did what i could to work his plan of overtaking the GOP at th local, committee level.
It was fun and i made good and lifelong friends and have a good citizen network for it but I never got to feel any kind of victory or reward; all our candidates always lost or were railroaded into oblivion, i brushed up against the NJ Norcross machine, saw a state Senate candidate's penis while managing a young woman's campaign and all (story for another thread: the corrupt, repulsive, sick bastards) but I'd competely given up on America and the electorate.
Trump changed that for me. I instinctively and from information jiust dismissrd Bush and Obama as obvious ruling class stooges arrayed against me and thought it could never change.
Now tho, the Don! I HAVE A PRESIDENT! It's a strange sensation. I understand why the rabble feels so good having one.
Sorry for the stream of consciousness meandering but it's just so odd to a jaded pothead millennial who watched Corbett and Infowars like 13 years before it was cool.
Sure it was nothing but great for my life and for the Republic and mankind ever after, but in the sense that it emotionally and socially attached me to the apparatus of State, not at all; the opposite even, i was alienated into the hinterlands and thought for sure the electoral road was forever closed. Moreover i thought even at every level there were only enemy agents and the cowed.
I totally abandoned legitimate society in general and understood myself maybe as old school Puritans did maybe, totally apart from the people around me.
Trump tho, for the first few years i even doubted. But incrementally it appears that in fact at all levels there was emergent resistance, a renaissance waiting. And he just coalesced it, all impulses toward the Republic are sucked into the orbit.
It's just awesome. Totally new to me. The Corona hoax sealed it for me, Trump's my guy, our guy it's mind blowing.
