Country has lost its way

There was a time when America was great.

America led the world in industry. America’s military might was to be feared.

What happened? Do you wonder why a leader would weaken a nation so that no one would fear you or take you seriously?

We can not blame former President Barack Obama for all of America’s woes.

The weakening of this nation started before him, and he just helped it right along.

Can Donald Trump be the savior of our country? I doubt it. He may try to keep it afloat a little longer, but we are on a sinking ship.

Some might think I am a pessimist. I think you have to look at reality.

The main goal of society is to be politically correct. It does not matter if it is a lie because people like lies these days.

All the wasted spending and perks for the elite have bankrupted our country. America is a broken nation.

You threw away God, and you still expect to be blessed.

Abraham Lincoln once said “America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.”

If America would go back to teaching true history in our schools and children could learn about our founding fathers and what they stood for and sacrificed, perhaps we could be in a better place.

Instead children go to school to learn about what bathroom Johnny needs to use.
