The way that people are responding to the latest attempt to assassinate Donald Trump says a lot about where we are as a nation. There was a time when something like this would have been considered an attack on all of us. But today things are completely different. Many on the left are doing their best to downplay what just happened because it might help Trump get more votes. And just like last time, there are some that truly wish that he had been killed. They have worked themselves up into such a frenzy of hatred that they are actually hoping for the death of their political opponents.

Of course the same thing is true for some people on the right as well. There was so much hate for Joe Biden when he was the Democratic nominee, and now there seems to be even more hate for Kamala Harris. This is not the way to achieve anything.
We will never win by hating our enemies.
We win by loving our enemies and using the truth to persuade them to come over to our side.
If people perceive that you hate them, they will be extremely unlikely to listen to what you have to say.
But if people perceive that you love them, they will be much more likely to listen to what you have to say.
To love someone does not mean that you agree with them. Personally, I fundamentally disagree with almost everything that our politicians do, and I express my opinions very strongly.
But I am not against anyone. Ultimately, I want the best for everyone and for our society as a whole.
If we do not learn how to love one another, we simply aren’t going to make it as a society.

I have never seen so much hatred, and this is the most divided that our nation has been in my entire lifetime.
Where do you think that all of this hatred is going to get us?
Everyone can see that this election is going to end very badly.
If we stay on the path that we are on, it is just a matter of time before we see uncontrolled chaos in our streets.
Is that what you want?
I sure don’t.
One of the reasons why I write the way that I do is so that people will wake up and choose to change direction before it is too late.
Because right now America is on a road that only leads to disaster.
We are being fed a constant diet of hatred, and just look at what this has done to our society.
According to one recent survey, 41 percent of Americans are currently experiencing “peak stress”…
In a year marked by financial worries and political tension, a new survey has uncovered the staggering impact of stress on everyday Americans. The average person feels their head “spinning” from stress a whopping 156 times per year, translating to about three times a week.
This alarming statistic is just one of many eye-opening findings from a recent study conducted by Talker Research for Traditional Medicinals. The survey, which polled 2,000 adults, also found that 41% of respondents are currently experiencing their peak stress levels for the year.
That is almost half the country!
Another recent survey discovered that the percentage of Americans that have been clinically diagnosed with depression at some point in their lives is at the highest level ever…
