The Pre-Trump World

Was it normal, or abnormal?

One off the polling practices I find annoying is the “right track, wrong track” question, because it can be very misleading in its implications. It doesn’t provide any information as to what the respondent thinks what “track” we should be on. I have never in my adult life felt that the country was on the “right track,” and if polled I would always say it was wrong. And of course, if I said that whenn Republicans were in power, Democrats would infer that it meant that I wanted them to win, which would be stupid, because what I wanted continually was a more libertarian, constitutional government.

Anyway, I have to confess that, despite my dislike of Trump, I do feel, for the first time, that with all the regulatory rollback, and constitutionalist judicial appointees, we’re at least, finally, on the right track. But we still have along way to go down the rails. My fear is that if the Democrats get back in power, we’ll be off the rails entirely.

  1. It seems the Bushes, and Bill Clinton, and Obama, are not going to be regarded as Great Presidents, and it seems Trump has that in the bag already.

  2. “My fear is that if the Democrats get back in power, we’ll be off the rails entirely.”

    Well at least the pawl of the rachet was lifted and the rachet rotated back a few notches.

    People have need have no fear of been sent away in box cars. We will need to get rid of rails because they are just a tool of the white patriarchy to rape the environment with their long firm railways that transport coal and oil to destroy the planet. No one will be riding the train to the camps, they will walk.
