Greetings y'all. One thing I love about the Bible is Jesus' use of parables to tell a story about faith and the Kingdom of God. It is critical to convey a message in terms, metaphors, and relevant references that enable the audience to grasp the meaning clearly. As I reflect on the 2024 election cycle, which resulted in Republicans winning the Presidency and Senate and holding the House of Representatives majority, I pondered how I could simply convey a message of what happened. Perhaps our dear delusional and misguided fellow Americans who are still reeling from such a massive electoral defeat will read this missive and gain an understanding as to why they were rejected.

Our story will use a grocery store as the vehicle of exegesis. 

How many of you have been in a grocery store and heard those infamous words over the intercom? We all know that something has happened, and there is a call for a grocery store employee to see what has gone awry on the aisle and clean up the issue. Just like with accidents on the roadways, people always want to see what has happened—it is just part of our human nature. One thing is for sure. As with accidents, no one interferes with the person called to clean up the issue on the aisle.

Now, consider that this grocery store is in America, and a certain group was managing it. The problem with this grocery store is not just that there was a cleanup needed on aisle 7; there was a mess on every aisle. The aisles represent different aspects of our Nation...the economy, taxes, inflation, energy, national security, foreign policy, border security, domestic security, education, government intrusion, and overreach. All those aisles were messy, and the grocery store patrons saw these accidents. Yet, the management tried to focus on something else. The messes on those aisles precluded the customers from having access to purchase the products that they wanted. Furthermore, when the customers reported messes on all these aisles, they were told there was no mess.

To complicate things even more, the customers who attempted to clean up the mess were obstructed and called names by the grocery store management and employees. The grocery store management called government officials to restrain the customers from cleaning up. Therefore, the customers had no other recourse than to ensure the management and employees of the grocery store were fired and replaced. The new management recognized the messes on all the aisles, promised to clean them up, and hired employees who would respond to calls for "cleanup on aisle 7."

On top of that, due to the management's policies, many of the commodities in that grocery store had become unaffordable for the customers. So, not only did the consumers have to deal with a messy store that was horribly kept, but they also had to contend with exorbitant prices. The management operated under a mindset that they had a monopoly, and the customers had no other recourse but to continue to shop with them.

America fired the Democratic grocery store management because they were tired of the mess that had been created. They knew that the store could be run better, so they decided to return to the previous management.

For a good understanding of who the leftists and Marxists are, think of the Chicago Mayor's response to grocery stores closing down. He failed to understand that inner-city neighborhoods were becoming food deserts due to increased crime. His resolution was just to take over and have government-run grocery stores. Kamala Harris had a disturbing response to rising grocery prices, which elitist MSNBC host Joe Scarborough was unaware of (he thought butter was $3). Mika Brzezinski had to correct him that it was $7. Harris wanted to implement government price controls, which would only lead to scarcity on the grocery store shelves.

Democrats made a mess of America in every way. It is quite disturbing that they are angry and attacking those who reported that we needed a cleanup on aisle 7, all the aisles. Worse, they’ve gone into vicious attack mode on the people being called in to clean up. Instead, the former grocery store management should ask themselves why we were all fired.

None of us want to shop at a grocery store in disarray, where we cannot afford the commodities, and some are allowed to come right in and take whatever they want out of our shopping cart. I liken that to illegal immigrants. Oops, I am sorry, “newcomers.” This is why the Biden-Harris management team was sent packing, especially since we were told they had "no regrets" and could not think of anything to do differently in managing the grocery store. And who wants to be greeted at the store by an angry curmudgeon who calls you disparaging names?

Sure, there were some who liked the way the grocery store was run, but they didn't have a strong enough voice to prevent the firing. Truthfully, they will reap the benefits of a well-run grocery store—and they don't even have to patronize the meat section.

Steadfast and Loyal.
