MORBNOTE ; Yeah , I know … I need new headers !!! … But this is well worth a read heading into 2022 …

As a tumultuous 2021 draws to a close, it is interesting to note how the controversies and crises that have defined the political landscape in the United States have further deepened the partisan divide.

The governmental response to the COVID-19 pandemic has become a largely Left-Right issue, with constant fear-mongering and governmental mandates on vaccines, testing, and masks pushed largely by Democratic government officials and supported—sheeplike—by Democratic constituencies. Republican officials who mostly resisted the over-hyped hysteria and draconian measures were roundly vilified, but have ultimately been vindicated in their approach of balancing common-sense measures to stem the worst effects of COVID-19 with policies designed to protect the economic, social, and mental wellbeing of their constituents.

The Biden Administration’s disastrous policies toward such issues as illegal immigration, the Afghanistan withdrawal, U.S. energy independence, and the economy have led to a massive loss of support from Republicans and independents, but most polls indicate that upwards of three-quarters of Democrats still approve or strongly approve of Biden’s job performance. A critical problem for Democrats, however, is that elections cannot be won on the basis of these loyal Democratic voters alone.

Although Biden entered office with a Democratic majority in both houses of Congress, it was the thinnest of majorities. And while Democrats and the media continue to make much of the 81 million votes Biden is said to have received in the 2020 election, the continuing controversies about electoral integrity undermine any supposed mandate the Democrats try to claim for their radical agenda.

Not since the election of 1860 has there been such an unbridgeable divide manifested in the election of the president. Many others have cataloged the extraordinary measures undertaken to prevent Donald Trump from being elected, remaining as, or being reelected as president; there is no need to revisit those measures here. Trump, in many ways, is the face of, but certainly not fully the cause of, the deep partisan schism in this country. Those who most vociferously opposed his presidency have proven themselves willing to stop at nothing to remove him from power, because they clearly see their own power and prestige threatened by Trump and what he represents.
