There is a
fight between Good and Evil, God and Satan, Right and Wrong, Order and Chaos,
Absolute Morality and Relative Morality, Truth and Lie etc. These fight only
visible in the USA, other countries failed to Evil, Satan, chaos etc. already.
If America failed in this fight, the moral compass of the world will be
demagnetized. It will lead to total chaos of world order. It is a ripple
effect, which influenced many nations of the world. These ideologies and its
proponents are attacked as well as witch hunt nothing like anything. But truth
alone triumph always. Truth has some delay in action, but it will come. So we
need the courage to stand with the truth, it is difficult but it is right.
In the 2016
Presidential election in the United States has a historical turning point in
the history of America as well as all countries across this planet;
particularly people who preserve conservative values. American values,
popularly known as American Trinities such as Liberty, In God We Trust, and e
pluribus unum (out of many, one) are regained its previous position in American
life. Under Barak Obama, America was falling like free fall in term of morality
and values. Liberal leftism hides American values and promoted Atheism and
Chaos. Any country gives away from God-centred Morality and Family oriented
values, it will crash land in total chaos. Trump’s motto is ‘Make America Great
Again’.
Fight
against Trump is not a new phenomenon. It is a fight against Truth, Good, the
God, Right, Order, Absolute Morality etc. The impeachment of Donald Trump, the
45th president of the United States, occurred on December 18, 2019, when the
House of Representatives approved articles of impeachment on charges of abuse
of power and obstruction of Congress. Trump was acquitted on these two counts
of impeachment on February 5, 2020.
Background
Trump's
impeachment came after a formal House inquiry alleged that he had solicited
foreign interference in the 2020 U.S. presidential election to help his
re-election bid, and then obstructed the inquiry itself by telling his
administration officials to ignore subpoenas for documents and testimony. The
inquiry reported that Trump withheld military aid and an invitation to the
White House to Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky in order to influence
Ukraine to announce an investigation into one of Trump's political opponents,
Joe Biden.
The inquiry
stage of Trump's impeachment lasted from September to November 2019, in the
wake of an August 2019 whistleblower complaint alleging Trump's abuse of power.
In October, three congressional committees (Intelligence, Oversight, and
Foreign Affairs) deposed witnesses. In November, the House Intelligence
Committee held a number of public hearings in which witnesses testified
publicly; on December 3, the committee voted 13–9 along party lines to adopt a
final report. A set of impeachment hearings before the House Judiciary
Committee began on December 4; on December 13, it voted 23–17 along party lines
to recommend two articles of impeachment, for abuse of power and obstruction of
Congress. The committee released a lengthy report on the impeachment articles
on December 16. Two days later, the full House approved both articles in a
near-party-line vote, with all Republicans opposing along with three Democrats.
This made Trump the third U.S. president in history to be impeached and marked
the first fully partisan impeachment where a U.S. president was impeached
without support from the President's own party (though independent
representative Justin Amash, who voted in favor of impeachment on both
articles, had previously been a Republican until July 2019).
The
articles were submitted to the Senate on January 16, 2020, initiating the
trial. The trial saw no witnesses or documents being subpoenaed, as Republican
senators rejected attempts to introduce subpoenas on January 21 while arranging
for trial procedures, and then on January 31 after a debate. On February 5,
Trump was acquitted on both counts by the Senate as neither count received 67
votes to convict. On abuse of power, 48 senators voted for conviction, while 52
senators voted for acquittal. On obstruction of Congress, 47 senators voted for
conviction, while 53 senators voted to acquit. Republican Mitt Romney, the only
senator to break party lines, became the first U.S senator to vote to convict a
president of his own party in an impeachment trial, as he voted for conviction
on abuse of power.
Blessing in disguise
“The
acquittal liberated Donald Trump,” said Republican strategist Doug Heye. “It’s
one of the reasons I thought censure was a better maneuver for Democrats.”
Trump’s acquittal has turned over a new leaf for the president. Trump tweeted
“95% Approval Rating in the Republican Party, a Record! 53% overall (plus add 9
points?). Corrupt Democrat politicians have brought me to highest polling
numbers ever with the Impeachment Hoax. Thank you Nancy!”. This is how God
works in his way.
Meaningful
and Purposeful life, not a luxury and peace but war and fight. The fight is
necessary to protect values. Trump’s won is not just for him but for all
conservatives across the planet to keep moral values and principles.
Conservativism protects values and morals
Conservatism
is a political and social philosophy promoting traditional social institutions
in the context of culture and civilization. The central tenets of conservatism
include tradition, organic society, hierarchy, authority, and property rights.
Social conservatism is the belief that society is built upon a fragile network
of relationships which need to be upheld through duty, traditional values and
established institutions such in maintaining the status quo concerning social
issues such as family life, sexual relations, and patriotism. Social
issues—such as civil rights, the abolition of the death penalty, LGBT rights
and abortion—which members perceived as a threat to conservative values and
societal order, while opposing secularism and state atheism.
Conservatism
prefers God-centred morals and family-oriented values. It protects order in
society. The antidote to problems in life and the world is to come back to
values and morals, God and Family etc. Individual autonomy and financial
extravagance make people unsatisfied and unhappy in life. Life has meaning and
purpose. So be meaningful and purposeful.
