The Air Force and Navy are also falling short.<\/p>\n<p>The WSJ offers various technical explanations as the source of the recruiting problems facing the U.S. military. But most troubling is the observation that, per surveys, &#8220;fewer than one in 10 youth are inclined to serve.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>It makes sense to expect that kids growing up in a country where they are taught that they live in an evil, unjust, racist nation will have diminishing enthusiasm to put on the uniform, no matter how much they are paid.<\/p>\n<p>A Gallup poll from June showed only 38% of our citizens saying they are &#8220;extremely proud&#8221; to be an American. This is the lowest since Gallup first did this survey in 2001, when 55% said they are &#8220;extremely proud.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On a similar note, a new Gallup survey shows trust in all branches of our federal government has cratered.<\/p>\n<p>The percentage expressing trust in our judicial branch stands at 47%; in our executive branch, 43%; and in the legislative branch, 38%.<\/p>\n<p>It is the first time all three branches of government fell below 50% in trust.<\/p>\n<p>Gallup notes that when it first did this survey in 1972, at least two-thirds expressed trust in each branch of the federal government.<\/p>\n<p>This is a leadership crisis.<\/p>\n<p>Former Democratic Party congresswoman and presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard drew attention with her announcement that she is pulling out of the Democratic Party.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview on Fox with former Republican congressman Trey Gowdy, Gabbard ticked off her complaints about the Democratic Party, including her concern that Democrats do not carry the banner for &#8220;individual liberties,&#8221; &#8220;limited government&#8221; and our &#8220;God-given rights enshrined in our Constitution.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Some have noted the precedent of Ronald Reagan leaving the Democratic Party.<\/p>\n<p>But Reagan left the Democrats and became a Republican.<\/p>\n<p>And Gabbard? She says she is now an independent.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s tough to fathom the genuineness of Gabbard&#8217;s disillusionment with her former party, given that she endorsed socialist Bernie Sanders for president in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Reagan articulated a clear vision of America, about limited government and individual freedom, and then fought to capture leadership in the Republican Party so the party would become the platform for these ideals.<\/p>\n<p>This option certainly is open to Gabbard. But, no thank you. She&#8217;s an independent.<\/p>\n<p>Americans are disillusioned because too many so-called leaders are playing games with them.<\/p>\n<p>We need leaders who understand and feel, at the deepest level, what our nation is about. A great definition of leadership\/heroism that I once read says that it is someone who embodies &#8220;by the cast of destiny, the virtue of their whole people in a great hour.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Inflation is a sure sign of a corrupt political culture. It begins with irresponsible government spending and printing of money.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside our corrupt political culture is the corruption of our society with the breakdown of marriage and family, and the disappearance of children.<\/p>\n<p>A free society is not about economic issues or social issues but both.<\/p>\n<p>In Reagan&#8217;s farewell address to the nation he said, &#8220;All great change in America begins at the dinner table.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He knew that in America, the family passes on the values of freedom.<\/p>\n<p>The press wants to focus the upcoming elections on individual races.<\/p>\n<p>This election must be about party. Republicans versus Democrats.<\/p>\n<p>Voters need to turn the country back to Republicans and pave the way for new, great American leaders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As November elections approach, the glaring and deeply troubling headline I see is Americans becoming increasingly alienated from their own country.There has never been a greater need for a new<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1697641,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[547],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1703806","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-bongino-report"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1703806","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1703806"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1703806\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1697641"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1703806"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1703806"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1703806"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
