America is suffering a pandemic of random mass shootings. This week saw an Iowa school attacked, which further depicts America’s spiritual and moral dilemma. What are we to do?

Absent a moral and spiritual awakening and repentance, the trend is likely to continue.

What do the political leaders propose? The most significant comment seems to come from Donald Trump, who said, “It is horrible, but we have to get over it.”

Excuse me, sir. “Get over it?” Really?

Did you say, “Get over it?” Yeah, you did. – smh

How insensitive, uncaring, callous can a person be? Get over it? Get over yourself, Donald!

You are thinking, “After all it is just ‘another school shooting.’

Let’s get over it, and refocus on me.”

Would he be telling Melania, “Get over it’’ if it was Baron’s school, or Baron himself bleeding or dead?

We hardly think so. But since the bullets did not murder anyone so close to home, just “Get over it.”

Awaken, America!

Awaken, independent Americans.

Pray tell, awaken, GOP.

This is not a man to elect as president, who dismisses the incident with “get over it.”

Such callous disregard belies a cold, darkened heart, unfeeling, uncaring about our concerns.

Turn away from him, and let your disgust for him be known.

Let conservative America find a candidate worthy of support:

One who has experienced our life, who shares our values and concerns, with ideas for how to address those concerns of:

National security at home and abroad.

Strengthening the economy:

• with a balanced budget

• with no deficit spending

• and reducing national debt,

• and securing the Social Security pension program.

By rebuilding our national infrastructure

• such as the aging, collapsing highway system

• and overloaded air traffic control system.

Trump has no ideas for these real issues. He has put nothing forward. He is stuck in the mire of worthless and illegitimate complaints from the 2020 election.

These issues should be the focus of the upcoming debates among forward thinking candidates.

Turn away from him once and for all. Do it now!

For the present, I choose Ambassador Haley. Other than DJT, who might you choose?
