The name of this blog is Pink’s Politics. The name comes from my high school nick-name “Pink” which was based on my then last name. That is the only significance of the word “pink” here and anyone who attempts to add further or political meaning to it is just plain wrong.

The Democrat Alchemists

The Democrats are the only people I know who think they can make something from nothing; even the alchemists of old needed coal to make their gold.  But the Democrats, even after 9 months or so of no evidence against Trump, still believe and assert that there was collusion, obstruction and most any other impeachable offense.  They think that their talking about it can make it so.

But, then, isn’t talking the preferred means of action of these Democrats, schooled in Obama-speak?  Let’s talk about things rather than taking any actual action.  They don’t know how to deal with a man like Trump who acts, and in acting gets things done.

Imagine you have a tooth ache.  Rather than simply go to the dentist and get it fixed, and you out of pain, you instead talk:  What dentist should I go to?  Do I need to go?  If I go to the dentist will I be taking a slot from someone else?  Who is that someone?  Don’t they deserve dental care?  What right do I have to go to the dentist? Are you even considering pulling the tooth?  How can you do such a thing?  You were given that tooth to care for; you must suffer with it.  Perhaps you should wait and see if your tooth just gives up bothering you.  Tell your tooth you love it.  Meanwhile, you are still suffering the pain.  Or, you could go to the dentist, diagnose the problem, have it fixed, and be out of pain in an hour or two.

I will take the latter approach:  the approach of action that actually gets things fixed and done.  The Trump approach.  But what that approach does is put out of business the many who make their livings spending their time wringing their hands and talking about, but doing nothing.  And, since they are losing their power they are doing the only thing they know how to do in an effort to bring down the man of action.  They are wringing their hands and talking, but now they are using their words to create scenarios and realities that do not exist.  They begin with what ifs:  what if Trump colluded with the Russians; what if he obstructed, etc. etc.  They then take these unfounded what ifs and discuss their possible consequences, all of which lead to the removal of Trump, for, with his removal they will return to power so they can continue wringing their hands and talking. 

They simply do not know how to act for the benefit of the country.  Even when the people’s representatives hope to work on a bill to improve health care in this country, because it is not the Democrats’ bill they cannot work on it; all they can do is use their words, their hand-wringing and procedure to stop the work of congress; that is, to stop the work of the people, to stop any real action on their behalf.

This is not intended to imply that talking is not necessary or good.  But when that is all that one does it becomes pointless and often obstructionist.   So, back to the tooth:  yes, think about if the pain merits a trip to the dentist, but then GO; if the dentist gives you treatment options, ask about them, but then make a decision and DO it  You would not sit around forever thinking about your tooth, you would act.

But, perhaps that is really all the Democrat alchemists want:  to obstruct until the people get disgusted and then put them back in power.  They use their hand-wringing narratives with the hope first that they can  stop any action and that in so doing the people will become as disillusioned as they are with the President, and second that the people will actually believe the scenarios that they create from nothing and then support them in their attempt to remove Trump other than by the election process, and in so doing undercut the very foundations of our democracy.

I consider that it is a good thing that we have a man of action in the White House.  Jobs are up; prisoners are coming home; housing sales are up; illegal immigration is down; duplicative, unnecessary, or over-reaching regulations are being eliminated; manufacturing is up; various actions are taken to benefit veterans; there is action and improvements in foreign policy; return to states of power usurped from them by the federal government; etc.  Now, everyone may not agree with all of President Trump’s actions but the response to such disagreement should not be hand-wringing and then creating out of nothing narratives that show how every act is somehow grounds for impeachment. 

President Trump is getting things done, things that the American people elected him to do.  The hand-wringers, the talkers, the alchemists of the Left need to accept that fact.  This is a president they do not like, but he is not an illegal president.  He is a president who is taking action and getting things done for the people.  That is not a bad thing.  And those who don’t like what he is doing, instead of trying to create an illusionary case against him should try working with him and, if that is not possible, then simply work to get their candidate elected next time. 

Creating something from nothing is impossible and the efforts to do so are creating an obsession not just for the Democrat alchemists and their minions the news media, but for the country as well, and this is not healthy or wise.  We have a great country with great institutions; those who love this country will respect those institutions and the people’s representatives within those institutions and will work with them to make this country even greater than it already is.  They will not try to destroy it with hand-wringing scenarios created from nothing.
