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.
