What is gaslighting?
The term "gaslighting" derives from the 1944 film "Gaslight." In the film the antagonist is regularly dimming the gaslights in his home, and when his wife asks why the lights are dim, he tells her that they are not dim. He is telling this lie, along with many others, in an attempt to convince his wife that she is crazy.
That is what the democrats are doing in America - they are dimming the lights, all the while telling us that the lights are not dim.
Stand-up for your rights! Parent your kids and teach them. Defend yourself and your family. Have faith and take your family to church. Save America!

How to maximize your stay at President Trump's Albemarle Estate at Trump Winery.
Trump Hotels are amazing! We have been to several of them - Las Vegas, New York, Miami, etc. But the best is The Albemarle Estate at Trump Winery. The reason that it is the best is that it is the most exclusive. The beautiful Georgian style mansion is 25,000 square feet and surrounded by hundreds of acres of beautiful countryside and vineyards, but it is super exclusive! The have only 6 guest rooms in the main house, 4 guest rooms in the pool house and then the cabin. The staff is top shelf and service is for what Trump Hotels are known!
Check it out the estate at this link:
https://www.trumpwinery.com/our-hotel/
Make reservations at this link: https://www.trumphotels.com/albemarle-estate
Join the Trump Card® Privileges Program at this link: https://trumpcard.trumphotels.com/trump-card/join/
When you join the program, you will get periodic emails about a variety of promotions throughout the year. A couple times a year they will offer gift cards at a 20% discount. So if you buy a $2,000 gift card, it only costs you $1,600.
Then, watch for when they have sales on bookings. Several times a year they will offer discounts on reservations of 10%, 15% or 20%, so you could end up vacationing at the Albemarle Estate at a 40% discount!
This will work at any Trump Hotel property, but Albemarle is the most exclusive! It is a great way for average folks to enjoy some of the finer things at a great price!

How to replace the torque strut mount on a 2016 Toyota Sienna Minivan.
My 2016 Toyota Sienna Minivan was making some odd vibrations that were getting worse over time. They were especially bad when I would accelerate quickly, or when the engine would idle down quickly. I assumed that the transmission was going bad. When I popped the hood to check the transmission fluid, I noticed that the rubber on the torque strut mount had deteriorated badly. I ordered a new one for $38.00 and paid $10 for FedEX. It got here 2 days later and it took me 30 minutes to install. This repair eliminated the vibrations and my van is running like a top!

How to field dress a deer.
VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED - the video contains images that may be disturbing to some people.
Deer hunting is the most effective manner of managing the deer herd. Overpopulation of deer result in increased car-deer accidents, and disease and starvation in the herd. Harvesting deer during the hunt provides you with organic, lean, antibiotic-free meat. However, once the deer is harvested, you must field dress it quickly so that the meat cools and is free of contaminants so that it can be further processed at home or by a butcher. Watch this video to learn how to field dress your deer.
