Trump the "Don"

 “The Don is often surrounded by a close circle of trusted advisors and family members, managing alliances, rivalries, and the complex dynamics of the criminal underworld. It's a position of immense power, but one that also carries significant risks due to potential betrayal, rival conflicts, or law enforcement pressures. The title signifies the highest position of authority within the organization, with the Don overseeing all operations, making critical decisions, and maintaining order within the group.” 

MS Copilot

I voted for the Don.

But I gotta tell ya, his actions remind me of the Italian variety.

How so?

Well, for starters, the legal actions by the other “mob” previously in power, exerting “law enforcement pressures” on him.

His actions of figuratively “offing” thousands among “mob” rivals in government (as he did in business)who he feels will continue to betray his operation.

His honed skill at deal making which often involves bluster,  threats and intimidation.  His statements involving Panama, Canada and Greenland come to mind.

His laser focus on his “family” the United States, above any other nation which many consider to be in opposition to a “moral position”.

The most notorious example is his treatment of Ukraine. The analogy is the shop owner (Ukraine) who is in a financially (militarily) tough spot. He needs a loan (protection). The Don suggests sharing his (Ukraine's) profits in exchange for a very high interest loan (protection). The Don knows that this is ultimately “a deal he can’t (is in no position t0) refuse.

To throw in another analogy from nature: Ukraine is a wounded animal. There are sheep (European nations) all around him that are trying to help, but are afraid and out-muscled.  There are two hyaenas (Russia, the antagonist) and the United States, both after Ukraine for what it can offer, albeit for different reasons. The Don, in this case, is the second hyaena, who is after the spoils of Ukraine, the wounded animal. The wounded animal has little choice.

The  Don is disliked by many within his family (the United States) for what they see as the immorality of his tactics, his “style” his “tone”. The others, who support him, understand all his efforts, despite the perceived amorality and blustery style, are all being done for the good of the “family”, the United States. He promises to make everyone "rich" again.

This is the way nations survive. This is the way it is, the way it will be, and many will agree, the way it has been throughout history.

To those upset and opposed to our new President...

There is much crying and gnashing of teeth with the inauguration and long overdue actions of our newest President.

Apparently these opposers have other preferences:

* Misplaced compassion, longing for continued open borders.

* Little or no concern about the criminals entering the US, and the pouring in of deadly addictive substances, violent gangs, and human trafficking.

* Desire to ignore or embrace the mental illness of those with gender dysphoria when science and millennia of human experience tells us there are only two genders.

* Preference for rewarding less competent individuals based on color, gender, or mental confusion rather than competence or skills.

* Preference for the US to remain dependent on other nations for manufacturing, energy, and national defense rather than making our nation self-reliant and strong.

There are forces already aligning against the common sense actions of President Trump carrying out the wishes of the US electorate.  Litigation by leftists and upset special interests are already in the works.

The lack of common sense by the opposers is astounding and confounding.  Once again I can only attribute these anomalies to unseen spiritual forces hell-bent on destroying the good that this nation attempts to preserve.

Was Kate Smith a Nazi?

Of course she wasn’t.  But the left today would likely label her one due to her penchant for singing “God Bless America”.  Afterall, singing that song today might get you labelled not a “patriot”, but a far right fascist Nazi, or just as evil, a "religious zealot".

Patriotism today will get you monitored by the FBI, and possibly relegated to a “no fly list” like Tulsi Gabbard was.

Come now Trump as one of the “Three Tenors” singing “God Bless America.” 

https://x.com/margommartin/status/1856880252615610474

Times they are a changin’.  At one point in 1979 Smith was accused of being a racist for having several old songs in her repertoire about “darkies and “pickaninnies” in spite of the fact that being born in 1907, those words were as commonly used then as “people of color” is used today.  She was neither a "Nazi" nor a "racist.

Until the last several decades patriotism was considered “good”.  Singing “God Bless America” a worthy tribute to our nation.  But now I wonder if the left will slander Trump and Musk for singing that song out of a fabricated fear that they may be far right Nazi’s.  The left believes its fascist to love your country.

Trump Victory Best for Nation - but what to really expect...

 Trump won, and that is great for our nation . Great because he and his team will be best at:

* Securing our border in spite of the lies and fake promises made by the dems.

* Deporting as many of the criminals among the millions of illegals invited into our nation by the Kamala/Obama/Soros administration as possible.

* Reviving our energy production which Biden castrated.

* Reinvigorating our domestic production which will raise wages and reduce inflation.

* Doing a much better job at negotiating trade and peace than the war lobby would like to do.

But there will be major impediments to this mission.

Do not expect the Kamalas, Obamas, Soros’s, Antifas, and other socialists and communists to play dead.  Expect a variety of tactics over the coming months, some overt, most covert.

Overt disruption will be perpetrated by orchestrated street thugs and their gangs and tag-alongs reigning havoc via protests, civil unrest, and riots in many of our largest and bluest cities (where law enforcement has been neutered by leftist politics).

Covert disruption will be in the form of persistent lawfare, media disinformation and slander, and administrative stonewalling and sabotage by the swamp which remains deep and wide.

Plus, the general propensity of the government-dependent special interest groups - welfare recipients, unions, illegals and the growing cadre of government workers themselves - to always want government to give them more with less work.  These groups will make easy subversive recruits, making the tasks ahead much more challenging.

In short, don’t expect miracles.  Expect havoc which the perpetrators will blame on the Trump administration. And the guilty verdict will be declared by the complicit media.

Overview of the World’s Bastards

 I often write to identify and synthesize the things that are bothering me about what is going on in the world.  Since it is impossible for me to do much about these situations, at least writing about them helps me understand the world’s predicament.

I’ll start with Islam.

Islam:  A 6th century political ideology self identified as a “religion” – the wild asses of the Old Testament.  Islam dominates the Middle East with its doctrines of conquest, militarism, intolerance of any other belief, political, or cultural system, especially Judaism.  It is best known for Jihad, violence, and deception.  Atrocities that are committed in the Middle East are almost always attributed to generic entities such as “men” committed this, or “Iran” committed that, or Hamas, ISIS, Al Qaeda or Hezbollah did this or that.  Such identification seldom mentions “Muslims” or people practicing their Islamic faith -  despite the fact that Islam motivates each if these entities and is behind most of these atrocities.

United Nations (UN):  The UN was created to assure peace and avoid war.  It has become a corrupt institution - a money sucking, inefficient, ineffective bureaucracy controlled primarily by Islamic nations.  In the Middle East it has proven itself to be in bed with those who continue to carry out atrocities against Israel and more moderate Islamic entities because they are not Islamic enough.

Leftists: I define “leftists” as those who favor larger government, more government control through more regulation, higher taxes, less personal responsibility, and less free speech.  Socialism and Communism are forms of leftism.  Humans have a propensity for wanting others to do for them what they can and should do for themselves.  Leftists play into this tendency to gain power.  Leftism is an evil that destroys the human will and productivity.

Mainstream media:  I define the mainstream media as the large corporate communications entities, including ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, large urban newspapers and large social media outlets such as Facebook Google and MSN, and news outlets such as AP and Reuters. The mainstream media promotes leftism and controversy for profit. It is dominated by journalism students of the revolting ‘60’s hippie generation who never appreciated the history and successes of this nation.

Corporate America:  Most large corporations, such at Amazon, other large retailers, and others genuflect to perverse and perverted cultural trends.  They are amoral organizations that will pander to any evil that they believe will add to their bottom line.  Fortunately several of these attempts have backfired – Bud Lite, Harley Davidson, and John Deere come to mind.

Democrats:  Joe Biden (basically useless at this point, but still a tool), Kamala Harris, Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, the Clintons, and the great majority of the Democrat establishment pander to the “gimme more” segment of our population, which is large and growing.  I consider them to be pure evil based upon their destructive open borders, their disregard of law and order, their refusal to promote or even allow the production of domestic energy, their disregard for the first and second amendments, their endless, excessive government spending, their politicized criminal justice system, and their inconsistent, untrustworthy foreign policies.

Lazy, uninformed voters:  This one bothers me the most.  How nearly half of the electorate still want to vote for the word salad queen who trades in emotion and lacks substance is beyond me.  That desire is based on rampant ignorance of what is going on in the world and in our nation.  They are willing to be lazy sheep lured into dependence on government.  They are happy as clams as long as they are being fed bullshit.

Those who believe they have the power of God:  “Follow the Science!”  This has been the mantra of the COVID gods.  “Government knows best” is close behind.  “Trust our leaders” is next.  The Centers for Disease Control, the FBI, CIA and Secret Service have lost the faith of a lot of people over the last decade or so.  These are all federal government entities that people have trusted to do their thinking for them.  These agencies long for influence and control.  That is why they exist.  To a large extent they wish to replace not only human freedoms, but also replace faith in the power of God.

So that’s it on my end.  Bastards all.  I probably have a few more bothersome things lurking in the recesses of my mind and I’m quite sure you can think of more.

Big Kamala Golf Cart Parade in The Villages, FL

 This report is from the “Old Female Republicans Can be Both Ignorant and Sexist” Department.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/kamala-harris-rally-draws-hundreds-of-golf-carts-in-conservative-florida-community-the-villages/ar-BB1qMn6p

A friend in The Villages reported to us this afternoon that there was a gigantic pro-Kamala golf cart parade comprised exclusively of women.  She expressed concern that this female parade of support for a leftist female candidate indicates, in her view at least, that the democrat ticket has a better than even chance of prevailing.  While I don’t share her same level of concern, the event does raise eyebrows.

Given that the demographics of The Villages is almost entirely over the age of 60 (which tends to be conservative) and over 80% Republican, observing such female stupidity could indeed portend an insanely sexist outcome to the Presidential election.

I knew a conservative black man in the runup to the first Obama election who said he will vote for liberal Obama just because he wanted to see a black in office.  It is likely that the same pea-brained thinking may apply to the female vote for Cackles. 

Identity politics is like watching a slow motion train wreck.  We observe the racist or sexist momentum of the movement, but we know there is little we can do to prevent the inevitable disaster.

The Dems screwed themselves…

 Two weeks ago I predicted that Biden would suspend his race by the end of the week.  I missed it by a week.

The even better news are these realities:

• Biden’s delays in getting out of the race wasted precious days for the Dems.
• Dem campaign funds can only go toward Harris with Biden out. They have to re-acquire funding in only three short months before early elections.
• Harris, aka Cackles, polls worse than Biden in many polls. And many Dem leaders do not want her on the ballot.  
• There is likely to be a contentious floor fight at the Dem convention in Chicago.
• Chicago is sure to serve up massive demonstrations and potential riots and destruction by fringe leftist pro-Hamas Islamists – friends of many Dems.
• The Mainstream Media were complicit in the Biden coverup and demonstrated that they have ZERO credibility.
•  And here is the biggy:  The entire Whitehouse support staff, including the top level cabinet members, were aware of Biden’s decline more than a year ago, not to mention the last few months – and they continued to lie and deceive, defend and support the Biden presidency.  How can Kamela or ANY Whitehouse Biden defender escape the fact that they covered up for a demented President who was supposed to be running the country.

Given that last point, I would LOVE to be on the Trump staff that helps uncover, expose, and highlight that Democrat subterfuge.  It would be an easy job.  Every potential Dem candidate is complicit and vulnerable.   But they are likely to plead ignorance which then demonstrates how out if touch, and therefore unfit to be President, they are.

Final thoughts:  Is Biden fit to even serve out his current term – or is he a clear and present danger to our nation if he remains President? 

I look forward to watching this Dem cluster fiasco unfold in the coming weeks.

One of the most inspirational speeches of our lifetimes…

Here is the link to Trumps entire speech given at the conclusion of the 2024 Republican National Convention:

https://www.cbsnews.com/video/trump-delivers-2024-republican-national-convention-speech-1/

From my perspective, Trump gave a heartfelt, sincere, inspirational, thankful, and hopeful talk that was the absolute opposite of the lies, hostility, and failed policies of the anti-American Biden administration.

Yet the CBS commentary after the tremendous and inspirational speech was shamelessly dismissive, snarky and mean spirited. CBS commentary reflects everything evil about the left in this nation. The MSM are a bane to America. Shameful!  They just can’t help themselves, just like most left leaning idiots in media and those propping up the Deep State.

Check out CBS’s dismissive rant just after the 1:38 mark in the link below:

https://duckduckgo.com/?q=trump+speech+cbs+video&t=vivaldi&iax=videos&ia=videos&iai=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Dhxx1nBTbn4s

Failure to prevent assassination attempt: Planned or Incompetence?

 There are too many screaming coincidences in the attempted Trump assassination to believe it was planned and carried out solely by a screwed up 20-year old.

First is the the vitriol demonstrated by the Democrats and know-nothings in this country.  Remember the severed Trump head held up by the hair by brainless Trump-hating Kathy Griffin, representing most of Hollywood?

Throughout the past several years the aptly named mental illness of TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome) has been applied to half the population that goes insane in their Trump hatred for reasons they can’t express, other than the snowflakes believe he is “insensitive” or “mean spirited.”

Then we had the never-ending failed series of concocted impeachment attempts and endless litigation that is more correctly known as “lawfare.”  These are also falling apart.

Most recently the media and Democrat campaign has been painting Trump a “threat to democracy” or a “dangerous Hitleresque Nazi.” Last week (July 8th) Biden proclaimed: ‘We’re Done Talking About the Debate, it’s Time to Put Trump in a Bullseye’.   https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2024/07/13/report-biden-told-donors-it-was-time-to-put-trump-in-the-bullseye/

Trump-hating Jonathan Karl of far left ABC News (typical of most mainstream media talking heads) had the audacity to accuse Republicans of politicizing the attempted assassination while  he totally ignored all the irrational Democrat hate expressed before, and especially Biden urging his supporters "to put Trump in a bullseye."  Jonathan Karl: Go to hell!

Amidst that backdrop we have the dramatic lapses of  the Biden-run Secret Service that enabled the assassination attempt.

Why was the security zone only extended to the fence line?  Why didn’t it include the buildings within 130 yards with a direct line of sight to the podium? Even an unpracticed shooter with an AR can shoot within a few inches of a target at that range.

Several bystanders informed police and Secret Service minutes before the shooting that there was a man climbing on top of the building with a rifle.  Those advanced warnings were ignored. Why?

Why did it take 45 seconds for the Secret Service sharpshooters to take down the shooter after shots were fired?

Other reports, which the Biden administration is denying, are that repeated requests for additional Secret Service protection have repeatedly been denied. 

Like the Kennedy assassination:  Let them shoot.  Then kill the assassin to cover up for whoever instigated the event.

Was the Secret Service security lapse due to incompetence or was it a purposeful lapse planned from on high?

The Biden administration and main stream media are complicit on so many levels.

Final thoughts:

What would have been the outcome in this nation if the assassination was successful?  What level of civil unrest would have resulted?  What sort of Constitutional crisis would have been created?

Many who keep track of these events believe these attempts to eliminate Trump are not over.

We don’t know who is running this country!

 

Who?  Some say Soros.  Some say Obama.  Some say a corporate cabal.  We don’t really know who is running this country.  We know it isn’t Biden.  He’s just the propped up, empty shell. That was confirmed beyond all doubt on June 27, 2024.

We know the deep state is rife with pro-Palestinians and other Islamists.  We know it’s heavily endowed with Communists.  McCarthy was right in the ‘50’s.  He’d be even more right today.

Who the electorate supposedly “elected”, Biden, is a mere decoy - a puppet.  The Biden voters were duped.

The Biden voter, aka, [mostly] Trump Haters, have been foisting their own fraud on the rest of the nation.  They are defending the lying cabal that is accusing Trump of lying.  Today’s New York Times editorial that calls for Biden to exit the race, is just one example of the many continuing lies and liars against Trump. 

So, who is leading our nation?  Who is pulling the strings?

We are in one precarious pernicious position.

Is a trial by a "jury of our peers" really guaranteed? Or was the concept "bastardized" by the legal profession?

 I was curious.  President Trump was said to have a jury of his "peers." Many believe that guarantee is in the US Constitution.

https://www.usconstitution.net › constnot-html

Things That Are Not In the U.S. Constitution - The U.S. Constitution ...

Jury of Peers. People often say "I have a right to have my case heard by a jury of my peers!" when there is no such right in the Constitution. The Constitution does take up the issue of juries, however. It is the nature of the jury which is not in the Constitution. In Article 3, Section 2,

Nope.  It is there only by inference, primarily in the Sixth Amendment.

Sixth Amendment:

In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence.

Do you see the word "peer" mentioned?  And worse yet, the "legal" definition is a LOT broader (i.e. "bastardized") compared to the common definition:

Legal definition:  

Definition of "jury of one's peers"

The constitutional right that ensures criminal defendants are tried by an impartial group from the same geographical jurisdiction, consisting of a broad representation of the population, irrespective of their race, national origin, and gender.   https://dictionary.justia.com/jury-of-ones-peers

Common definition:

peer /pîr/

noun

1. A person who has equal standing with another or others, as in rank, class, or age.

   "children who are easily influenced by their peers."  American Heritage Dictionary

 ___________________

one that is of equal standing with another : EQUAL

The band mates welcomed the new member as a peer.

especially : one belonging to the same societal group especially based on age, grade, or status

teenagers spending time with their peers    Webster's Dictionary

So there you have it. The mythical protection of a "jury of your peers."  Good luck surviving a jury trial if you are an elderly conservative Christian Caucasian in a county comprised of young atheist or Muslim indigent illegal immigrant liberals.

Not ONE of Trump's jurors were in any manner an equal with regard to rank, class, age, or socio-economic status, intelligence or any other measure. Trump didn't have a chance in hell of a fair trial by his "jury of his peers."  There was not one real peer there.

One Small Step for Leftists - One Giant Leap Toward Civil War

The Democrats, other leftists and Trump haters scored a victory with the conviction of Trump based on bad evidence, lying witnesses, a jaded legal system, and unethical instructions to the jury by a Judge who publicly vowed to "get Trump."

Yes, this will be appealed.  But it is almost certain that any appeal will not be heard until AFTER the election.  And the appeals will STILL occur in the legally corrupt state of New York.

So, what happens in the meantime, before the election?

What can we expect from Trump supporters?  What can we expect from those who were on the fence and independents?  What can we expect from people who are painfully aware many of our current leaders appear to be purposely destroying our nation?

What is so troubling to me is the legal system that convicted Trump on May 30, 2024, is not limited to New York City.  Many Pollyanna's will excuse this travesty by claiming it is just a New York thing - New York - the Trump hating bastion of the nation. Unfortunately, this is NOT just a New York thing.

This corruption of the legal system is a nationwide thing - occurring in every big city across the continent.  Flash shop lifting mobs are let out before sunset.  Multiple DUI drivers driving with revoked licenses are released.  A woman who stole a police car and ran over a police officer was found "not guilty." 

https://people.com/woman-stole-police-car-ran-over-officer-while-naked-acquitted-insanity-defense-8656104

This disregard for civility and disregard for justice by our legal system has become commonplace.  Criminals caught in the act of violent crimes are released the next day.  Tens of thousands of illegal aliens who are not vetted, with the majority being military aged men, are relocated to small and medium sized towns across the nation in the middle of the night by our Federal Government. They are ordered to report in -  maybe ten years. Who are they?  How many are ISIS and other similarly motivated Islamic sympathizers, MS-13, and other criminals. Most likely, the majority.

The lack of justice promoted by Soros-funded legal systems across the nation is bad enough.   Trump's conviction is a stark reminder that evil has become "good", and good has become "evil."

How much more turmoil with today's legal travesty create across the nation?  While the Pollyannas suggest that a fair and just legal system will prevail, I disagree.  We have instead taken a giant leap toward civil war.
