King Solomon, “Dark Sayings,” and Twelve GOP Senators? (Revised)

interested in understanding the “dark sayings,” in relation to twelve GOP Senators

The Chicago Tribune Perspective article titled, Republicans are finally standing up to Trump, reported a columnist opinion why twelve GOP Senators voted against President Trump’s National Emergency Declaration instead of doing something about a 33-year problem that the USA Congress obviously cannot comprehend.

The Purpose of This Post

To question five word definitions relating to the possible reasoning of the 12 GOP Senators who voted against President Trump and/or including the entire USA Congress.

The 12 GOP Senators?

Sen. Lamar Alexander (Tenn.)

Sen. Roy Blunt (Mo.)

Sen. Susan Collins (Maine)

Sen. Mike Lee (Utah)

Sen. Jerry Moran (Kan.)

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (Alaska)

Sen. Rand Paul (Ky.)

Sen. Rob Portman (Ohio)

Sen. Mitt Romney (Utah)

Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.)

Sen. Pat Toomey (Pa.)

Sen. Roger Wicker (Miss.)

Reality Definition

“the world or the state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an idealistic or notional idea of them.”

Idealism Definition

“the practice of forming or pursuing ideals, especially unrealistically.”

Denialism Definition

“In the psychology of human behavior, denialism is a person’s choice to deny reality, as a way to avoid a psychologically uncomfortable truth.”

Time Perception Definition

“is a field of study within psychology, cognitive linguistics^[1] and neuroscience that refers to the subjective experience, or sense, of time, which is measured by someone’s own perception of the duration of the indefinite and unfolding of events.”

Proverbs “Dark Sayings” Definition

“The first verses of Proverbs state that one purpose of this collection of wisdom is to help men understand the “dark sayings” of the wise. The Hebrew idiom dark sayings connote riddles or puzzles. The idea here is that the sayings of the wise are hidden or puzzling to those who are not wise.”

King Solomon

To understand a proverb, and the interpretation; the words of the wise, and their dark sayings. (Proverbs 1:6)

What’s My Point?

The Southern Border Problem was supposed to have been solved in 1986, 33 years ago, when President Ragin granted amnesty and promised to solve the problem by not allowing employers to employ any legal immigrants.

That obviously did not work based on the present estimates of there being in the USA anywhere from 11 to 40 million illegal immigrants wandering around the USA.

My point is that the above Senators may believe that President Trump is in violation of their IDEALISTIC principals of the Constitution, or are out of touch with REALITY that for 33 years the USA Congress.

Any Senator who is still in the dark about this 33-year-old befuddling riddle of illegal immigration would be considered a FOOL if they worked in a private business.

In My Opinion

I believe anyone can understand the political reality of the Democrats reasons for not wanting to solve the immigration problem which should be is apparent to anyone wise or even a fool. Their goal is to win the 2020 election without ever proposing a solution for illegal immigration.

While “dark sayings” pertain to both practical or spiritual wisdom, the above twelve Republican Senators who voted against the resolution may be out of touch with the reality, or suffering from denialism, or fools unable to comprehend that dark facts of a 33-year-old problem.

You Decide

After 33 years, and perhaps 40 million illegal immigrants, should any Senator still be in the dark and befuddled to understand there is an illegal immigration problem in the USA?

In reality, would your boss at your place of employment allow you to remain in the dark and ignore any problem for 33 years? Or would he yell BOO in your ear to wake you up?

Regards and good will blogging.
