What happened to America? Charles Pearlman claims that it all began in America. “that election night in November 2016. That’s when the National Nightmare began.”
In his book “2020 to Save America,”Pearlman, a professional in the financial sector, is familiar in virology, psychology, and politics. He calls it what he sees, using strong language, while highlighting all the weaknesses of the current administration in the same way as one might at a cocktail.
The book is divided into eight sections that include a psychiatric analysis and a review of President Trump’s mental health. It outlines Pearlman’s views on the failures of both the Republican administrations as well as the past four years. He cites the role of social media in spreading misinformation and cites Breitbart News Network as well as the President’s impulsive tweets. The distrust that has resulted is a result. “At this point, I wouldn’t believe a word out of his mouth if he went and had his tongue notarized,”Pearlman.
Pearlman’s book, however, is more than a description of the problems in the United States. Pearlman said that he had a set of clear ideas to help address the problems facing this country as a result its current leadership. He says, “The only hope for our battered nation is education … You can’t make an informed decision when you are ill-informed.”
As an example, “true believer in science and research,”Pearlman’s greatest concerns relate to the environment and the COVID-19 pandemic. The epilogue to 2020 to Save America focuses a lot on Pearlman’s views about the steps needed for solving these problems. “Joe Biden is going to be a busy man,”He says he agrees, but points out that lasting and effective change will require the cooperation of all the country.
Among jabs like “Liar-in-Chief,” “Distracter-in-Chief” “Playboy-in-Chief”Pearlman, among other things, appeals to the patriotic love and responsibility of fellow Americans. “From the day I first said the Pledge of Allegiance, I have been ready to stand up for America. When it comes to our rights as Americans, I accept my responsibility to be vigilant and I refuse to compromise. I wouldn’t give an inch. I love my country. I support your rights. I support the rights of all Americans.”He says that his love is what keeps him fighting.
Although Pearlman’s depiction of the United States looks grim, he believes that there is still hope. “So many people have become inspired to work to move back toward putting our country back together again. Americans love their country because there really is something here worthy of their commitment. We are free to live the lives we choose as long as we don’t interfere with the rights of others.
“America is a beautiful land with stunning natural landscapes, amazing cities and breathtaking scenery. The people are friendly and well-known for their Yankee ingenuity. We will all work together to win. We can get the pieces back together and start again.” Purchase at https://amzn.to/2FOzc4A.
