Letter to the editor: When conservatives get 'woke'

What happens when conservatives get “woke”?

I believe the next four years will awaken conservatives, if they’re not already, and force them to stop sitting on their hands. For most, though, they prefer prayer to activism. Like a CIA false-flag op, unfounded accusations and hateful identity politics awakened and manipulated the left in the 2020 election. God allows a lot, so we can learn a lesson. He doesn’t fix it for us; that’s our job.

The next great Republican president will ensure that:

1. America is once again a nation governed by the rule of law and due process.

2. God is reinstituted in the federal language and institutions. There will be freedom of religion, not freedom from religion.

3. America comes first.

4. Patriotism is taught in school.

5. Merit will displace quotas.

6. Free speech is protected. Censorship will end. Those promoting cancel culture will be prosecuted for harassment and bullying.

7. The lie of identity politics is exposed.

8. The lives of the unborn are sanctified.

9. Family values are valued.

10. China’s hegemony is stopped.

11. Treason is prosecuted.

12. Regulations and taxes decrease.

13. The debt is addressed.

14. People, not the government, decide when to quarantine.

15. The economy booms.
