YOU SAID IT: Understand why Trump won

Soon the dust will settle and America will get back on its feet.
Although I am not a Donald Trump fan, I understand why he was re-elected, and it’s something the progressives are unable to comprehend.
Almost every democratic country has been pushed to the limits by woke, DEI lefties who have been allowed to flourish too long while taking from those who work every day to feed their social justice warrior beliefs.
Our bloated levels of governments at all levels, along with academia that promotes “critical thinking,” are going to hit a brick wall and crash and burn.
It is time, well overdue, to put the silent majority back in control.

NOT SO SAFE AND SECURE
Chrystia Freeland recently says Canada’s borders are “safe and secure.” Safe and secure for whom? Certainly not for Canadians.

Our southern border with the United States is a sieve through which illegal migrants have been pouring to suck up all the social benefits they can get. And they get them all.
Our Arctic archipelago has become a tactical sailing exercise for Russian ships and nobody knows what else.
Our east and west coasts have been dumping grounds for more “asylum seekers” grabbing all the goodies they can. All paid for by complacent Canadian taxpayers and their governments that fail to take defensive actions because, hey, Canada’s borders are “safe and secure,” according to Freeland, our very own The Price Is Right gameshow host.
Oh, Canada, our home for not much longer.

HOW MUCH SMILING CAN I TAKE?
Since the results of the U.S. election were projected late on that Tuesday night, I have suffered from a serious inner and sometimes outer smile. I hope to have this condition under control within a few weeks.
Please, Mr. Prime Minister, don’t call an early election in Canada as I am fearful that the results might cause my condition to become permanent!
