OPINION:
For the past few days, I have watched the newly elected Democratic anarchists scream with glee, thinking they will turn our country into another Russia or China, where the people have no rights.
The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and their deceitful counterparts who hate American democracy conned the young gullible voters and the ignorant into believing that freebies are on the way. In reality, all these duped voters will get is more of what we got under President Biden: empty promises, anarchy, bloodshed and suffering.
Voters who thought they were fighting President Trump for letting them down with higher food and gas prices convinced themselves that they were poor, innocent victims. These self-absorbed narcissists turned against their country, not looking at the big picture and believing that Mr. Trump is the bad guy. The real bad guy is Mr. Biden and his incompetent administration, which left the country in shambles.

The Democrats chose to demonize Mr. Trump for attacking our sworn enemy, Iran. They insist he did not have to do it — but they do not care that the regime was mere weeks away from getting the components to build a nuclear bomb. That bomb would without question have been used to kill us if Mr. Trump had not acted.
People who complained that they were suffering financially under Mr. Trump failed to think about the mess he inherited. They also fail to recall that they did not do much complaining when Mr. Biden caused everyone to suffer.
Mr. Trump is the person who will get the country back on its feet. Democrats will not do it; they will instead be trying to remove and destroy 250 years of democracy.
As a combat wounded U.S. Marine Vietnam veteran on a 100% disability from my war wounds, I say that it is time for President Trump to end Iran. You cannot train a rattlesnake to make it a pet.
