Years ago, while I was seriously dating a wonderful woman I had met at the church we both attended, I was having lunch with a friend who knew us both.  

He asked me, “How’s it going?” 

Attempting to be honest and transparent, I responded, “She’s great, but she does have some flaws.” 

That was when my friend came back at me with the unexpected.  

“Then you must dump her immediately. You owe it to yourself to move on and keep looking until you find that special someone who is perfect like yourself.” 

Now, there was some wisdom from an older man that as a younger man I couldn’t muster the fortitude to loathe. 

In fact, that is the same advice that comes to mind when I encounter those who attempt to hold to what they maintain is a higher moral ground—i.e. virtue signaling—by refusing, for now over six years, to look beyond the imperfections of President Trump, and at least simply acknowledge the host of ways by which he was able to accomplish good things for America while in office. 

This is not a reference to members of the progressive left who would maintain their hatred of Trump even if he was “scientifically” proven to be the second incarnation of their Buddha’s oh-so-wise daddy.  

Rather, it is regarding self-proclaimed conservatives—and particularly many professed Christians—who have continually maintained their disdain for this President, notwithstanding his accomplishment of things like: twice enabling this country to experience a booming economy; controlling inflation; securing our borders; lowering our taxes; rebuilding our military; maintaining functional supply chains; providing us energy independence; and, keeping our gas prices reasonable. And that’s before we even get to the return of many manufacturing jobs that previous administrations had allowed to be exported abroad.  

These are just a few of the ways that immediately come to mind by which President Trump enabled so many people in this country to once again be proud to be an American.  

But, looking forward, even these accomplishments are likely to pale in comparison to the unforetold miraculous events that are likely to continue coming our way for years to come due to his successful appointment of conservative judges, not only throughout jurisdictions across America, but especially those three vacancies he filled on the United States Supreme Court. 

A case in point: that Court’s miraculous decision last week to finally overturn Roe v. Wade at the federal level.  

Before the 45th President came the scene, it is doubtful anybody in this country on either side of the aisle could have reasonably expected that to ever happen.
