Some people think that “some people” never have a problem. All people on some level have troubles. An old preacher friend of mine from Florida use to say “Glenn, on every level, there is a new devil.” This is true. The poor have troubles. The rich have troubles. The famous have troubles. People in obscurity have troubles. Today, 2020 in almost every inch of the United States and with…

Four years ago, I was honored to share why I was supporting then-candidate Donald J. Trump on the stage of the 2016 Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio. My Dad, a U.S. Army veteran and small business owner, was proudly in attendance. Speaking before those at the convention and on television, I described my family’s history as small business owners.

Dear Editor, We are unceasingly deluged with descriptions and images of cities being destroyed piecemeal by organized crowds of sanctioned and protected thugs who, completely unopposed, riot, loot, burn and destroy the property and businesses of hard-working, productive, taxpaying citizens. As outrageous as that is, the same closely directed mobs are defacing and destroying public buildings, blocking highways and tearing down monuments. These cowardly wannabe warriors are bravely attacking innocent, inoffensive and frail elderly people on the streets. If these sorts of activities were being committed against our citizens and our country by uniformed foreign troops, it would rightly be…

In 1861 another president, Abe Lincoln, was hated by the democrats as much as Trump is hated by the modern democrat. They used much the same methods then as now. President Lincoln said it best of Trump’s election and the subsequent attempts by the democratic party to destroy modern America. “Teaching men that what they cannot take by an election, neither can they take it by a war – teaching all the folly of being the beginners of a war.” His statement delivered…
