mccoy I’m not sure if you sense this or not. Quite frankly I do not see Donald Trump as a man with moral convictions. He has always been a person with no moral scruples. An opportunist at the very least and a person with no conscience or remorse at worst. How can that type of vibration lead to a promising outcome? Character is the guiding principle in decision making. For a people that no longer find good character important in the guidance of their actions the compass of their life leads them astray. As spiritual beings we are no longer progressing when we put luxury, extravagance, self aggrandizing and immediate pleasure principles above everything. And we have lost the sense of compassion and human empathy for others, seeking retribution for acts committed. These are certainly not the qualities that Jesus Christ emulated as an example for living.
This is what Paramahansa Yogananda meant when he talked about a country which has misplaced priorities. My personal karma is intertwined with such qualities. I am beginning to understand these complexities and personal karmic dynamics.
Steve, I wouldn't be too discouraged.
I'll give you a very simple outlook of how I see the situation presently.
With full power, comes full responsibility. Mr. Trump knows it well.
If he won't be able to carry out his promises, at least a good part of the main ones, he will have no excuses. He knows it well.
His ego will not allow him to stand failure. So he's going to do his best. Something good should come out of this mandate. Some of his plans are good for everyone, like global peace, domestic prosperity, lesser crime, lesser bureaucracy and so on.
This is maybe the last challenge Mr. Trump will have in his life. Hopefully, he won't botch it. But everything is possible.
