The Left Couldn't Defeat President Donald Trump
“However Much You Deny The Truth, The Truth Goes On Existing”
George Orwell
Why did President Donald Trump defeat the liberals and the left? He held on to the truth.
President Donald Trump has a strong character and courage. Two qualities that may not be understood by the liberals and the left. They tried to defeat him using their powerful positions in government and lies. It didn't work.
President Donald Trump survived two bogus impeachments. One when he was out of office. He survived two assassination attempts. They changed laws and came up with bogus legal concepts and lies to put him in the court room instead of campaigning. They conducted serious lawfare against him. He survived it all. President Donald Trump has been tested for his desire to be president so many times. Test he all passed.
The American people in big numbers saw the lies, the distortions, the delusional behavior of the democrats. They saw how they let a man with serious cognative issues remain in office and even attempt to run for a second term as president. It wasn't until he lost a debate and the world saw it that they decided to change things. Reality had crushed their delusions. Then they ran a very flawed candidate. Someone with no votes and was installed. A woman who couldn't hold a press conference. Someone who gave word salads when asked questions. A woman who couldn't articulate her positions clearly on any issue. The democrat delusional behavior was in full swing. They denied the average person couldn't relate to her on any level. Democrats couldn't see how she could lose. Reality had completely left them.
We as a nation will now go forward. Democrats and liberals need to find a way to deal with reality. They need to take time to understand the American people. They need to change.You’ve said it all, and I couldn’t agree more. Today, I feel a deep sense of relief. I have so much trust in this strong man to work tirelessly to fix everything that’s been broken. I’ve prayed for him, and I truly believe he’s a selfless individual, willing to serve out of love for this nation and loves people.
In his speech last night, he promised to work hard to bring people together. It’s definitely a tough task, but seeing how many Americans are voting for him gives me hope that more will be willing to unite. It was disappointing to see some networks fall back into their usual bashing today, but honestly, it’s easy to just hit the button and tune that out. I am not willing to deal with the negative crap any longer. I am keeping it positive.~ proof will be in the pudding ...

Amen brother, it is a VERY GREAT day for America.
Hi Mike, well stated. I keep thinking back to the "how" and the "why", and am reminded of lessons learned throughout my life:
Don't start anything that you can't finish.
Don't make promises, you can't keep.
Don't put off til tomorrow what can be done today.
Be consistent.
Stay grounded, and principled.....
We could be here all day, I had very wise Grandparents, and a Dad who still gives great advice!
Trump has proven himself time and again, and the people have seen that for themselves. I think the majority of us have had our fill of woke mainstream media and academia... and woke Dems!The Biden Admin started something they could not finish without American intervention directly and the onset of Nuclear war.
Any chances for an internal revolt or quick 'shock and awe' repulsion of Russia is long gone.
The Russians are now rounding up hundreds of American, UK and French "Mercenaries" within the occupied Russian territory, the North Korean Special Forces are being deployed to eviscerate them...
I have come face to face with North Korean Special Forces... the only thing on par with them are the most elite units we have, and even they do not match the psychotic nature of the North Koreans.
Listen to the experts:
Trump, the Economy & World War III: Col. Douglas Macgregor’s Shocking Predictions
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omnMNMyDGPoI understand where you're coming from, and I share the hope that the new administration will make progress toward resolving the war in Ukraine. I also think that Russia, facing immense pressure and significant losses, might find itself with little choice but to reconsider its stance. Putin is certainly not ignorant of the toll this conflict has taken, and it's likely that he feels the weight of miscalculations and setbacks.
It’s possible that Trump's diplomatic efforts, combined with strategic pressure, could push him toward a face-saving exit. If this is the case, there may be a window for de-escalation and peace that preserves Ukraine's sovereignty while bringing relief to countless people affected by the war. I hope this administration can seize that opportunity and help guide the situation to a peaceful resolution through talks, not bombs... Biden never considered trying to bring peace through negotiations. Trump will. I feel this war will be soon over.
Now Israel is a much different story, being a religious war, I see this as a much harder problem.The Middle East cannot be resolved until Ukraine is resolved...
Ukraine is but one part of a global war against Russia, Iran, North Korea at the least... throw in some minor conflicts ongoing in various African nations as well.
But primary to any of this is ending the conflict with Russia right on their border, mere hundreds of miles from Moscow.
Not one conflict will end until that is resolved... the fires of war will only spread to more nations, until it is resolved.I hope you are wrong. I feel we may have gotten a reprieve with Trump being elected. At best, I feel he will work hard. I agree we are at a very bad scary place that could turn bad.
Its hard to reverse course on full blown war...
I realize most Americans don't understand the reality that actually is...
They think Ukraine is fighting Russia and Israel is fighting Iran...
Those nations, however, and you can throw in North Korea as well, believe they are at war with America (and the UK, France, Isreal and Ukraine).
Their people believe they are at war with America... or more to their perspective, they feel America has declared war on THEM.
It is American rockets landing in Moscow and Tehran...
The Biden Administration walked us into WWIII...
And the Biden Administration is not out of the WH yet...
I watch what is happening with the Ukrainian war daily.
The russian army would have serious problems without the North Korean soldiers. russia doesn't have enough soldiers to defend the entire border. North Korean special units tried to take a Ukrainian important position and the did not succeed and most didn't make it back from the mission.
russia may ask for more than the initial 12,000 North Korean soldiers to hold their defense line.Well, if we can rely on Trump's promises, this war will be settled very quickly....
"That is a war that's dying to be settled. I will get it settled before I even become president," the Republican said during his debate with Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday.
If I win, when I'm president-elect and what I'll do is I'll speak to one, I'll speak to the other, I'll get them together."
https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/w … if-electedIt's interesting the difference between what the media in the United States says about the Ukrainian war and what Ukraine media says about it.
There is a Ukrainian podcaster I listen to now and then. He has relatives in russia. According to him, his relative said the russian media reported putin was upset that President Donald Trump was elected. putin and President Donald Trump recently had a phone conversation.
In the American media, President Donald Trump told putin to not escalate the war. According to russian media President Donald Trump told putin there will be serious consequences if putin escalates the war and it would be in his best interests to decrease the russian war efforts.
Well, this didn't upset the russian people as they are war weary. Many of them support an end to the war.
Since winning the election President Donald Trump has made more effort to ending the conflict that the biden administration for the past four years.
All Ukrainians hope an acceptable peace can be reached by President Donald Trump.It's interesting that The Kremlin has denied reports that the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, spoke to the US president-elect, Donald Trump, calling the media reports “pure fiction”.
It is completely untrue. It is pure fiction; it is simply false information,” the Kremlin spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, said when asked about the call. “There was no conversation.
How much land do you think Ukrainians will be forced to give up under a settlement?
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/202 … e-invasionWell, I think Trump is really the only dope but will be waiting for him to clarify.... But...
"We do not comment on private calls between President Trump and other world leaders," Trump communication’s director, Steven Cheung, said in a statement.".
It would seem that they would want to clarify quickly because the situation left as is, makes it look like one party is not being truthful.
The Fox article, claims an anonymous source...Exactly, and as I mentioned, now that Trump has maneuvered the media into spreading reports full of insinuations, he can step in and set the record straight. This strategy allows him to control the narrative. Why do I think it was leaked? Because now the ball is in Trump’s court, and there’s nothing he enjoys more than having the spotlight and everyone focused on his actions. Hey, could be wrong--- but I have witnessed his long-time rope a dope ploy. He may only want to have 15 minutes of media today --- I won't discuss the call, but we had a good constructive call. Jist to let the public at large know he is working on a promise. Hey, like I said he is a master at staying in the news, almost daily.
At any rate, Mike offered the account of what the media is reporting " According to russian media President Donald Trump told Putin there will be serious consequences if putin escalates the war and it would be in his best interests to decrease the russian war efforts."The Establishment will still fight him every step of the way...
They are have a 'secret ballot' vote to choose the Republican Majority Leader for Trump's coming term... you can be sure they will elect a Warhawk RINO that will undermine all of Trump's efforts... much like Ryan, McCain and others did during his first term.
The DOJ (FBI) will not go quietly into the night... there are unelected officials throughout DC that will have to be terminated and replaced if he wants any of his Agendas and Orders to be acted on... thousands who need to be thrown out of government for good.
But this time he has a team of people that can work to make it happen, if he so chooses... he can make change happen... time will tell."The Establishment will still fight him every step of the way..."
Trump is the establishment.No... Trump is the will of the People...
The Establishment recognizes this, that is why they hate him, that is why they did everything to destroy him...
Trump has collected around him the other people who tried to stand up to the establishment... Gabbard, Kennedy even Musk with his purchase of Twitter and the release of the Twitter Files.
Now we will see what those that defied the establishment can/will do.I see we have differing views of what the establishment is. Nothing wrong with that as I see it. You have yours and I have mine.
He is a billionaire. Now don't tell me billionaires aren't the establishment. He is a prominent politician no longer a novice and could be said earned his stripes and has a veteran status as a professional. At least in my book that is. Over half the nation that voted cast a vote from him. C'mon that speaks volumes he is the establishment. He is an old man. What says establishment more than that. And, most importantly he is the seat of our newly forming government. Please, don't tell me that isn't the establishment.He is a billionaire that was a traitor to the 'elites' and to the "establishment".
He was the one who stood on stage and ratted them out... Dave Chappelle summed it up it well enough:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWfQCDaAa6s
Yes he... and Musk are wealthy... but they aren't the ones trying to move forward to a future... unburdened by what has been.
We either have a nation, with borders, with a government that does the will of the People... or we do not... and under Biden we DID NOT...
The People did not want war with Russia, Iran and North Korea...
The People did not want millions of unchecked migrants flowing in...
The People did not want our government spending Trillions and causing 25% inflation over 4 years...
Now we will see if Trump and his team of rebels get in there and clean up the mess our government has been for so long...
We will see if our government will accept that... or if it is so powerful it can choose to undermine Trump and the voters that put him there... again...
Trump isn't the establishment. At least, the Democratic & many Republican establishmentarians in congress FAILED to acknowledge this. If Trump was the establishment, he wouldn't be so disrespected & persecuted by the political establishment. They HATE him.
Well, your entitled to your 'opinion', which I vehemently reject!!
"In sociology and in political science, the term The Establishment describes the dominant social group, the elite who control a polity, an organization, or an institution. In the praxis of wealth and power, the Establishment usually is a self-selecting, closed elite entrenched within specific institutions — hence, a relatively small social class can exercise all socio-political control.
In 1955, the journalist Henry Fairlie popularized the contemporary usage of the term The Establishment to denote the network of socially prominent and politically important people:
By the 'Establishment' I do not mean only the centres of official power — though they are certainly part of it — but rather the whole matrix of official and social relations within which power is exercised. The exercise of power in Britain (more specifically, in England) [Substitute any nation here] cannot be understood unless it is recognised that it is exercised socially.I know what establishment means, I have B.A. degrees in sociology & history. In context, Trump isn't considered the establishment in Washington D.C. political eyes. Look how he was treated by them. That is what I am saying.
Just an opinion that resonated today...
Yes. Trump and maga ARE the establishment now.
They’ve got the White House. The Senate. The Supreme Court. Quite possibly, the House, too. They’ve got the richest man in the world, Elon Musk, and other right-wing Silicon Valley and Wall Street billionaires ready to remake the federal government, including stripping regulations on the businesses they own and putting loyal acolytes in top positions of power. And they’ve got the country’s most prominent anti-vaxx zealot and science ignoramus Robert F. Kennedy Jr. ready to “make America healthy again.”
Musk triumphantly remarked to Trump supporters on X, parroting a popular QAnon catchphrase, “You are the media now.”
Yes, But it’s more than that: MAGA is the establishment now. They’ve got the keys to the country, it’s their ship to sail majestically on the open seas or run aground.
If you blamed Democrats for inflation, then you now get to see how Trumponomics will work in action. Sure, inflation is a global crisis created in large part by the Covid pandemic and the years it’s taken for supply chains to get back up to speed. And, yeah, the U.S. weathered the inflation storm better than most advanced economies, the Federal Reserve is cutting interest rates, and the country somehow managed to avoid a recession... but the vibes were bad. And that’s the main reason every governing party , left- or right-wing, that faced election in a developed country this year went down in defeat.
Trump, as is his wont, avoided many policy specifics on the campaign trail, but he did promise numerous tax cuts (which will pump yet more air into the balloon that is our national debt) and severe tariffs that economic experts say will exacerbate inflation, explode prices for everyday goods and lead to higher interest rates. His promised mass deportations would also bring about economic calamity, to say nothing of untold social unrest. But flipping the bird to experts is as much a part of the MAGA ethos as is its victim mentality. So enjoy the ride, MAGA. You are the economy now.
If you believe Trump kept us out of wars, despite his expansion of the global drone war, manic saber-rattling and undermining of U.S. alliances that contributed to global conflict, then now’s your chance to watch Trump fulfill his promise to “end all wars” around the world.
That could very well mean the weakening of NATO, the abandonments of Ukraine to Putin or Taiwan to China, and it could worsen a situation that the left-leaning Israeli news outlet Ha’aretz characterizes as “ethnic cleansing” in northern Gaza, or lead to the annexation of the West Bank, which Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir called for in the wake of Trump’s victory. I personally don’t think the world will look more “peaceful” if any of those came to pass, but MAGA’s got a mandate...you are America’s foreign policy now.
If you believe a second Trump administration will be less “divisive” than the Biden administration, X marks the spot. Musk bought Twitter in 2022 because he incorrectly believed conservative voices were being targeted and censored, even enlisting sympathetic journalists to spin this narrative through cherry-picked emails that they completely misunderstood into the infamous “Twitter Files.” And while Musk's renamed X has its siloed left-wing echo chambers, X regularly throttles Musk's critics and political opponents while boosting the reach of his MAGA allies. Though hemorrhaging money and users, Trump’s victory solidifies X as the MAGA movement’s echo chamber, larded with racism, misinformation and ponderous, essay-length posts from Trump-supporting civility cops. Blame the legacy news to your heart’s content...you are indeed the MAGA media now.
And if you’re committed to the idea that President Trump 2.0 will bring “freedom” back, for all his “free speech” bluster, Trump has always been hostile to free expression, threatening and enacting government action on his opponents, filing financially-crippling bogus lawsuits against news organizations and literally calling for his political opponents to be imprisoned. Think the left’s “wokeness” or “P.C. culture” represent censorious tyranny? Now you control the institutions... you’re the speech police now.
It is, of course, ironic that a right-wing populist movement so animated by its opposition to left-wing “snowflake culture” is itself a collective of self-avowed victims. But that contradiction is of little import now.
Trump won. He’s likely going to escape accountability for trying to steal the 2020 election and — allegedly — top secret national security documents. He’s purged the Republican Party of dissenters. He won an election that he was fully prepared to falsely claim was rigged if he lost. Irony’s dead.
It’s your country, now, MAGA. No more crybaby whining about the establishment. You’re in charge and the success or failure of Trump’s second administration will be yours to own. We’ll check back in on your progress in four years.
Actually I'll be checking in on progress daily lol.
https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-opi … rcna179183
It is expected that Dems, left media, and die-hard supporters will continue to fight him. One would think they would wake up and see he won't be shut down. It's all been thrown at him.
I understand your concerns, but I don’t necessarily agree with the idea that a "Warhawk RINO" will be elected to undermine Trump’s efforts. Several candidates in the Republican Party strongly align with Trump’s views and would work to support his agenda. For example, figures like Senator Josh Hawley, Representative Jim Jordan, and Governor Ron DeSantis have shown consistent support for Trump’s policies on immigration, trade, and restoring American strength. Even though there may be some pushback from certain factions, I believe there are solid leaders who will back Trump’s vision and continue to advance it. The leadership in the Republican Party, especially among the more conservative wing, understands the importance of uniting behind Trump to ensure that the country stays on the path of prosperity and strength that he initiated. He has a strong mandate. I think we will see a strong common sense person who is fully on board with Trump's MAGA agenda --- this is their shot, they better take it. One thing is in the back of my mind, last week posted on Truth he would like term limits on Congress.
I hope he takes decisive action to overhaul the FBI, DOJ, CIA, CDC, DHS, and various White House staff and beyond. You're right—only time will tell. I doubt many will get a second chance to prove their loyalty to advancing his agenda, the very mission the people elected him to fulfill. I am optimistic that we will succeed and usher in what he envisions as "a Golden Age."
I'm putting my money on the one who endured everything they threw at him and more. He has managed to bring the Democratic machine to its knees, leaving it badly wounded.
I've never witnessed such a victory, and I'm grateful to have been here to experience it. He now holds a rightful place in our history books, and who knows what more he might contribute in the future.
I'm sure that a lot of us would just prefer honesty and transparency up front rather than games.
Trump is one of the most transparent politicians I have ever seen. That is something many appreciate. He is so transparent it gets him in trouble... But when it comes to playing games with the media or for that matter Democrats he seems to like to say --- got you.
Thanks for sharing this—it’s difficult to find reliable updates about the war. I did read about the call between Trump and Putin. I’m praying for peace and hope Russia retreats without gaining any ground in Ukraine. It’s reassuring to see Trump taking swift action to initiate negotiations. I believe he can help bring an end to the conflict. The people of both nations have endured enough due to Putin’s aggression.
Why is Putin denying the call?
"A Kremlin spokesperson said the reports were "pure fiction", while Trump's team told the BBC that it would not comment on the president-elect's "private calls".
Who is not telling the truth here? Who's playing games?
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cy4g0vg8gdqo
Mike, This is out of an article on Fox "Trump reportedly took the call from Florida and advised Putin to not escalate the war in Ukraine. The president-elect also reminded Russia’s president about the amount of U.S. military in Europe, a person familiar with the call who spoke on anonymity told the publication.
I suspect that Trump might have leaked this information. If the Kremlin issues a denial, Trump would likely clarify the statement himself. He’s skilled at leveraging the media to his advantage, often creating a buzz to pave the way for sharing his perspective with the American public. I call his technique." rope a dope". It leaked for a reason.
Great post Mike, worth the read.
I think in some ways Harris was a GOOD candidate for them and the switch almost worked... how many people voted for her merely because she was a woman and POC... votes that Biden could not have picked up, not after the last 4 years.
I was wrong... based on women outvoting men by a large margin in this election (and in past elections)... based on Roe being reversed...
That is a testament to how bad things have been the last 4 years... from being told there is no inflation and the economy is good, when many cannot afford to pay the bills and feed the family.
To the insanity they pulled with trying to covertly drop millions of migrants into America, without the consent and acceptance by the people in those towns that were forced to take them in.
From foreign affairs to families being able to protect their children, the last 4 years have been a sh!t show like nothing I have seen in my lifetime... and they still almost pulled of the win... with a candidate that never ran in the primaries and was subbed in at the last minute."I was wrong"
That one statement has earned you quite a bit of respect from me.
I agree, the democrats ran a seriously flawed candidate. They brought everything on themselves. biden's cognitive decline was obvious to people around the world. He was an embarassment. The democrats stuck with him instead of taking care of him and they paid the price. harris was only VP because she was black and female. Those aren't good qualifications. Before being made the nominee for presidents she was one of the most disliked vp's in US history.
What are you most excited for, paying more for everything due to tariffs or RFK JR'S experimentation with our health? 0r maybe Herschel Walker setting up a missile defense system?
Good economy, secure borders and a president with a track record of seeking peace in the world. I also like getting men out of women's sports. That's just a few. The return to law and order is also inspiring.
There is no question President Donald Trump has a mandate given to him by the majority of Americans. He will win both the electoral vote and the popular vote. This hasn't happened for a Republican for over two decades.
The democrats need to ask why they were so out of touch with the American people. Will they learn that most Americans don't support their agenda. The DEI, the transgender putting males in female sports, the blatant racism against white people. Americans by the millions showed up and made a statement that this is unacceptable.
The main stream media has shown it no longer wields the power it once did. They distorted facts about President Donald Trump, they tried to make harris a competent candidate. None of it worked because the American people were able to see the truth of the situation.
Lets hope the petty name calling, the references to hitler and dictators goes away. It didn't work before, and it's not going to work now.
It's time for us to come together. We really have no other way to succeed going forward.Are you excited for him to "solve" the war in Ukraine? I also believe that's a day one promise. Or a he "will handle it very quickly promise". Many of your fellow Americans are anxious for Trump to cut off all support for Ukraine and likely hand the entire country to Russia.
This is a complicated topic.
1. President Donald Trump said he would get a peaceful resolution to the conflict. Ukrainians applaud this and hope he can make it happen.
2. There are many countries who are supporting Ukraine in their battle against russia. Troops from North Korea are now fighting for russia, many countries from the orient have increased their financial and military support for Ukraine. As one Ukraine commentator said, "No matter what happens our fight will never stop until we're free."
3. russia is running out of soldiers. Their losses are approaching 700,000 military personal. Their military has suffered such significant losses in personal and equipment they are unable to do much. If the United States were to remove support, others would increase theirs.
4. Most people I speak in the United States are simply ignorant of the situation in Ukraine. They don't understand the history, the reason for the conflict or what could happen if russia was to defeat Ukraine. Once these things are understood they are very supportive. Most people don't know that russia committed a genocide against the Ukrainian people known as "Holodomor." Once this is learned; the understanding begins.From the start, I prayed that our current president would step in and use the strength of the U.S. to stop the war before it began, especially as Russia built up troops for months leading up to the invasion. Now, we see the heartbreaking loss of life and the sheer destruction that has ravaged Ukraine.
At this point, I hope and pray that the new president has the ability to bring peace without Ukraine losing an inch of its sovereign land. I think most Americans see the importance of supporting Ukraine, but what we truly need is peace—a way out of this ongoing war that should never have happened in the first place.
It is time for Americans to unite regardless of ideology to work to make American dream be reality. However, this isn't reality(sad to day), the ideological divide will divide America further apart.
100000000% I completely agree that it’s time for Americans to come together, regardless of ideology, to work toward making the American dream a reality. Unity is essential for progress, especially in a country with so many different perspectives and backgrounds. When people from different sides find common ground, we strengthen our communities and the nation as a whole.
However, the reality, as you pointed out, is that the ideological divide we see today makes this difficult. Progress won’t come overnight, and it’s true that the path ahead is challenging, but recognizing the need for unity is a powerful first step. I am so hopeful once we see problems in the rear mirror, more might realize a change was needed. I feel something Trump said the other night might be profound. Don't quote -- He talked about the need to come together and said it would be hard. Then he said success may bring us together if nothing else worked.Why wasn't this kind of unity important or advanced after Biden won his election? I don't recall any appeals to unity or coming together from maga in the last 4 years. Really I've heard folks acting like Democrats were some sort of aberration, with different "mindsets" and ideologies that were abhorrent.
I could bring up a slew of posts with folks talking about how unity is a pipedream and they wouldn't even consider it as Democrats are just so alien to them.. but now, a call to unity? After everything that's been said LOLWell, Biden had an opportunity for unity with his immigration bill...unfortunately it was little but possibilities and how to get more immigrants to be citizens. Precious little about limiting anything at all; as that is the entire point to conservatives it wasn't much of a bid for compromise. Just a talking point where he could say conservatives did not cooperate (in the making of tens of millions of new citizens to go on welfare rolls.
I so agree with your view. Biden’s immigration bill, presented as a gesture for unity, fell short of true compromise, focusing heavily on expanding pathways to citizenship without sufficient measures for border security or enforcement. For conservatives who value a strong, lawful system, this was a clear red flag.
The bill's lack of border security provisions risked an increased influx of undocumented migrants, straining border patrols and local communities while creating potential security and humanitarian issues. Fast-tracking citizenship without thorough vetting threatened to overburden welfare systems, raising concerns of higher taxes, reduced resources for current citizens, and stressed public infrastructure. These challenges, left unaddressed, suggested long-term economic and social strain.
Moreover, the bill appeared politically motivated, possibly aimed at creating new voters who might support progressive policies. This fueled skepticism that it was more a political move than an effort at genuine unity. Without substantial enforcement measures, it seemed like a talking point rather than an honest attempt to bridge divides. One can only feel grateful that this bill did not pass. One only needed to take time to deeply dive into it to see if it would have done severe damage to the country.The bipartisan bill was not "Biden's". It was largely crafted by senator James Lankford... You also continue to characterize it incorrectly. It did not extensively expand pathways to citizenship. That was one of the big concessions made by Democrats.
And mast deportation on day one makes sense, the cost? The chaos? This is one of his promises I feel certain will not be realized in any meaningful manner.
Will his followers be disappointed when he breaks this promise as he did with building the wall and having Mexico pay for it?
He claimed yesterday that this Mass deportation effort has no price tag. Lol
How is he paying for this? Particularly in light of our national debt. Also the fact that his agenda fails to bring in significant revenue, so much so to the point that social security will run dry very quickly.
I am talking about Trump followers saying there should be unity and we should all come together now.... It's quite rich and laughable after their rhetoric the past 4 years.
It seems you don't read total context -- yes some, as myself felt we should work toward unity, but take a look at what follows those thoughts, the however.
In my view, there is no chance of unity because our values/ideologies are too far apart.Give peace a chance, as John Lennon advised.

" None of it worked because the American people were able to see the truth of the situation."
That’s why I was so confident he would win. I genuinely trust that most Americans will act with common sense. And everything you mentioned reinforced that belief! I held on to my faith in the people.
Will the democrats learn from this election?
Do democrats even realize what happened?
Do democrats understand they tried a man on two bogus impeachments as well as bogus lawfare activities and ALL of their efforts were ignored by the American people?
All the lawfare, the bogus impeachments, the name calling him such things as "Hitler," being a "Dictator," "An existential threat to America," having 96% negative press coverage by the main stream media, etc. etc.
The citizens of the United States took all of this fear mongering and saw through it. They knew the democrats simply weren't telling the truth and being honest. It was the TDS and democrat delusional condition that motivated them.
As a result of all their bogus claims a majority of Americans gave the democrat party the double-barreled middle finger and awarded President Donald Trump a landslide victory. He took over 300 electoral votes and will be the first president in 20 years to also take the popular vote.
It was a landslide - resounding defeat. It wasn't even close.
Do democrats understand they have to change? Are they are aware they have made some colossal political mistakes?
Do democrats realize they completely misjudged President Donald Trump in many ways?
Are they aware how out of touch they are with the majority of the American people?I believe he won with 50.7% of the vote. Trump leads the popular vote count with 73,517,201 votes to Harris' 69,204,767 votes as of Friday afternoon. We are a divided country.
You should acknowledge the huge demographic swings toward the Republican party that happened all over the country.
On the local level Republicans gained control of the Senate and are about to take control of Congress. This is known as an "election trifecta."
The only influence liberals have is in liberal areas and that's it.
Why did the democrats calls of "he's Hitler," "he's a fascist," "he'll be a dictator," all go ignored? Why was the lawfare conducted by the democrats mean nothing?
It's simple really.
The American people aren't stupid like democrats treat them. They can see the truth in the ocean of democrat lies. They knew the impeachments were bogus. They knew the lawfare was bogus. They knew the fear-mongering by the democrats was bogus.
They saw President Donald Trump's courage in facing some of the most difficult situations any politician in modern history has experienced. By his will and determination against all odds; he prevailed.
They saw him take an assassin's bullet and not be afraid. He had the courage to stand up with blood dripping down his face, raise his fist and yell, "fight, fight, fight."
He never quit, he never gave up on what he believed in no matter what happened.
President Donald Trumps journey to a second term as president was inspiring to many.
Truth and reality prevailed.We're talking about a win with 50% . Does that put the country in any different position then we were in 4 years ago in terms of unity? It's not exactly an overwhelming mandate.
Biden won with 51%. Why are we in a different place in terms of unity, temperature in the country now versus then?
If you exclude CA... with their NO ID required... which we SHOULD discard as millions of votes in CA can be, and probably are, fraudulent.
Exclude CA and the election wasn't close popular vote either... it was a ten million vote win for Trump, at least.
CA is like that annoying relative that you only see on Thanksgiving... who believes America is evil and needs a Communist revolution, who wants the government to censor information and take control of all corporations.The popular vote is still being tallied, but at this point. It’s clear that he has a mandate. He secured a large victory, particularly in the popular vote, along with a significant number of Electoral College votes. He ran on a very specific platform with well-defined proposals—and he won. This victory has earned him a mandate, and there’s every expectation that he will implement the policies he campaigned on. It’s unmistakable that the people have supported his agenda. In a democracy, Congress should respect this mandate and listen to the voices of the substantial majority. Hopefully, it’s looking promising. He has the Senate, coming close to gaining the House.
I suggest you seriously analyze the significant shifts in voting demographics. It the current trends continues, democrats are in serious trouble.
I believe it is time for some serious self-reflection by those in the democrat party.
It's official. President Donald Trump has gotten 312 electoral votes. The most of any Republican presidential candidate since 1988. Over three decades.
My two cents ----
Yes, the term establishment can cover a range of groups, not just political figures. While it often refers to the entrenched political power structure or long-standing institutions, it can also encompass different influential groups, such as the wealthy elite, big business, or cultural and media power players
At one of his rallies, he admitted, "I never thought of myself as a politician; I guess I am now, but I don't think so." He has undeniably become a powerful force of the people, giving a voice and hope to a broad majority. His influence and role in American politics have cemented him as a central figure in the mainstream. Yet, he remains that outsider championing the agenda that many Americans long for. I still see myself as an outsider. He bucks just about everything the Washington politicians dish up.
As he navigates this role, I hope he has the wind at his back and continues to fight for the ideals of MAGA. Millions look to him to press forward, staying true to the movement that has reshaped American politics and united countless Americans in a renewed vision for the country’s future. To borrow a phrase from Harris—"We are not going back."
It always baffles me how anyone could view Trump’s ideas as a step back to some past era. To me, they’ve always been about moving the country forward, breaking free from the status quo. His vision is about building up the nation, not tearing it down. It’s evident that he deeply loves America and aims to restore a sense of pride and greatness, drawing inspiration from times when the country was more confident and prosperous. But this isn’t about returning to the past; it’s about advancing into a future where those values and strengths can flourish once again.
I've gone on for too long... I'm just feeling very energized and excited.
