Learn from the past. [View all]

I was told and raised with the notion of “learn from the past”. Which sounds easy enough, but than again it doesn’t always work out.

People make mistakes in their lives because it is human not to be perfect or always have the ability to be right.

I, myself, have made many mistakes in my life, like trusting others to do good is one of them. I know I’m not perfect nor I’m I alone.

One of the lessons people should learn from is the problem which we all are dealing with today. It’s Trump’s 2nd attempt to destroy our nation. His supporters never learned anything from Trump’s first attempt to destroy our nation’s future.

Was it not in plain sight what Trump was doing in his first term? If they were not paying attention, they didn’t care nor did they want give up their power?

Now, move forward to the main issue of today! A mess of a massive propaganda campaign by Trump shows that those who thought Trump was the best person for the job? Well, that lesson failed and yet, they still don’t have a clue of Trump or his minions are doing!

It the same as Trump’s first disaster, but it 1000% times worse! It shows that people did not learn from the past! Thus, they have no idea what they are doing to themselves.

Lessons are hard to face and they don’t always have good intentions. Yet, we are the ones who are being hurt by the consequences of Trump.

We have a great chance to teach these foolish people, a lesson that they never forget? It’s our duty and responsibility to learn from the past and give our future a better view going forward!
