I am finishing up my 79^th orbit of the sun. In my most recent 25 or so trips around the sun, I have come to realize some things that seem to be missed by too many people. Instant gratification is an illusion pushed by liars who are trying to control people. Yes, that would be the socialist left and their toadies in the mainstream media. As an example, the left’s latest mantra “affordability” and why isn’t Trump making the economy better faster?

The affordability issue is an easy one to answer. Affordability is a major problem only in cities and states controlled by socialist Democrats who for decades have been pushing the false narrative of “cost effective and efficient green energy.” Renewable green energy has proven to be neither cost effective nor efficient. Affordability has been crushed in these blue state jurisdictions because the population had the actual cost of failed green energy inflicted on them whether they wanted it or not. Those who live in these socialist run blue states are victims of nearly 100 years of fearmongering lies by people who only wanted to control them. It worked for a while, but you can never ever fool reality. In 2025, the green energy piper now has to be paid.

The question about why President Trump, in only 11 months in office hasn’t fixed the American economy is a little more complicated but has always occurred when there is a political party change in the White House. The policies and regulations of an outgoing administration is like a highspeed train or a super-carrier speeding through the ocean. It takes time and distance to turn those things around. My observations suggest that it sometimes takes up to two years for an administration to undo what the previous administration has done in regard to the nation’s economy.

I have now, twice, seen a record-breaking violation of my previous noted observations. In 2021, the Biden/Harris/Obama/autopen administration managed to destroy the best economy America had ever seen in about six months. Had the Biden cabal done nothing, Biden would have gone down as a very good President. Instead, the socialist Biden cabal undid everything Trump had done in his first administration, and now Biden’s legacy is the worst President in history, which did make Jimmy Carter happy before he died.

The second time that the general rule has been broken is what President Donald Trump 2.0 has done so far to fix what the socialist Joe Biden’s cabal broke. President Trump has a while before he gets the runaway train stopped and turned around, but what he has done to Make America Great Again, Safe Again, and Healthy Again is mind boggling. No President in history, including Franklin Roosevelt in his 12 plus years, has accomplished major impacts economically in such a short period of time. Even with World War II, there has never been an influx of trillions of dollars’ worth of new investments in America, not to mention stopping the foreign invasion of America perpetrated by the socialist Democrats.

As television’s Kung Fu’s Shaolin monk, Kwai Chang Caine, was often advised during his training, “Patience, Grasshopper.” Like Caine, we American patriots and every citizen must be patient while President Trump works his magic. Instant gratification is not reality, no matter what lies Democrat spew. However, to keep things in perspective, look at all the positive changes the Trump administration has already made to make life better for all Americans, even those who hate him.

Today (12/12/2025) I see that gas prices are down another six pennies. Late last week I saw that egg prices were down below $2.50 per dozen. Now that fuel costs are down, this reduces the cost of transportation for food, and food prices are slipping down across the board, in red states. By the first anniversary of Trump’s second inauguration, things will be even better than they are today, and fuel and food prices will, no doubt, be even lower than today.

However, patriot ladies and gentlemen, if President Trump is to maximize his efforts in the next three years, he will need more than just our patience. Every one of us needs to be active players to get good honest people elected to Congress in the 2026 mid-term elections. Many of the Congressional swamp creatures, both Democrat and Republican, are choosing not to continue their corrupt-criminal swamp activities. No doubt many, if not most of those retiring, fear the continued uncovering of corruption inside the Washington Beltway criminal enterprise known as Congress. It is my deepest desire to see accountability for corruption dispensed massively in the next few years.

It is important to remember that President Trump has far more information than you and I, and even the talking heads of the fake news media. Patience Grasshopper and watch Trump magic happen again, before your very eyes.
