Have you ever worked on writing something but the subject keeps changing so fast you never get around to hitting the send/publish button? It’s been nonstop revision/addition/revision/addition for 2 weeks now and every day brings a new and pleasant surprise as another narrative is absolutely destroyed. I’ve already had to change the title from a 1 week review to 2 weeks, just trying to keep up.
I started these thoughts shortly after the election. It’s a daily reflection of the amazement I’ve felt since then at how completely out of touch some continue to be regarding the results. To me, the only surprise was the degree of success so what follows is an interpretation from my side of sanity.
In all of this, I’ve credited actual authors in most places but am also certain that I
missed some here and there that you can nail me with a future plagiarism charge if I ever decide to run for office – and happen to be on the wrong side of the party in power. 😉
Beyond the total sweeping victories, the wonderment continues with the new administration continually remaining several moves ahead of the panic stricken democrats – as the fallout rains down through the first weeks of the new term.
It seems the resistance car ran off the road, hit a tree and is lying upside down in a ditch with its wheels spinning. However, they STILL think they are right by refusing to own their previous actions and remain entrenched on their thrones, jamming the pedal by issuing more insults.
All they can do is continue wailing about a perceived threat or insult resulting from Trumps common sense approach to matters. A recent outrage was his reply to a reporter asking him if he was going to visit the helicopter/jet collision site on the river. Beyond the fact that it is a river and there is nothing to visit, I’ll let a local fireman/first responder down here translate for these poor lost souls who think virtue signaling still matters more than effective leadership.
What wasn’t said but is understood by anyone who thinks clearly is what gain would there be to visit the river now during rescue/recovery? The security alone for a presidential “photo op” (along with the gaggle of press hoping he messes up with an obscure Nazi gesture) would be hugely disruptive to those on the ground (or in the water) during their haste to recover bodies and gather evidence. I wouldn’t be surprised if those responders will some time in the future be invited to a white house dinner to show the nations appreciation but for now, LET THEM DO THEIR DAMN JOBS!
As I’ve previously stated I’m not a rabid Trump fan. That hasn’t kept me from acquiring the MAGA extremist label – several times now for sharing a difference of opinion and refusing to bend the knee.
My offenses? Daring to suggest that Hunters laptop was real, wasn’t Russian disinformation and the 51 intelligence agents should be charged for greatly impacting a presidential election, for saying Biden’s obvious decline into the depths of dementia was endangering this country, for stating that COVID vaccines were killing otherwise healthy people and did NOT stop the spread of COVID but instead increased it, for saying the J6 incident was at the very least helped along by implanted FBI or other bad actors, for claiming Harris was an illegitimate candidate that never received a single primary vote.
You get the picture. I could go on but there is no point. They STILL unbelievably claim that their statements “happen to be rooted in facts”, if you can believe it.
Instead, we are now getting a tsunami of releases proving otherwise.
In truth, I can’t stand listening to Trump but have the wherewithal to recognize he was exactly what we needed to blow up and dismantle the deep state strangle hold on our government officials. That revelation is now being proven each and every day. Even with that, his accomplishments in these first weeks in office have been stunning and has gone well beyond what I believed was possible.
It started out with a boom and the booms just got louder as the week(s) progressed. You could immediately tell that this time, his administration was ready and had the right people in place to make it happen – unlike previously when he tried to “get along” with them. Those that opposed were swiftly dealt with, and/or replaced with others that actually follow the laws already in place.
What a difference having an (actual) ACTIVE president taking charge and wearing everyone else out – as opposed to hiding out on the beach nearly half the time ignoring all of harm he has inflicted on this nation.
THE ELECTION HAD CONSEQUENCES
Before we delve into those accomplishments, let’s review the election or more specifically, a critique of those who are unable to fathom how they lost to a racist Nazi felon.
I really expected some introspection in these post-election days.
Just a little bit of “how could I have been so wrong?” would be appropriate right about now. You would think realizing that things were NOT as you imagined them while inside your echo chamber would trigger such a response. Especially after predicting a blue wave because everyone you knew was in agreement and the media confirmed it at every turn.
“The Democrats didn’t simply wake up to a red wave on election night. They saw it coming, months, if not years before the polls closed. The warning signs were blaring, yet their responses were constrained by internal contradictions and were a massive miscalculation of their own base’s discontent with what transpired the past few years”.
Read full critique.
So obviously, things haven’t gone as expected.
However, if everything goes the way I expect (Harris wins, Trump claims victory, small skirmishes of violence break out but are quickly squashed), then I will happily resume cordial interactions with any MAGA-supporting acquaintances or family, with that lovely “told you so” hanging in the air.
That hasn’t set well with the defeated AT ALL as they dust off the trusty and always reliable “Nazi” accusations for the umpteenth time.
Besides being a label affixed to EVERY Republican candidate dating back the 60s with Barry Goldwater’s campaign, this is a topic that the Babylon Bee was making fun of 7 months ago!
It also turned out to be the democrats big, breaking 11th hour October Surprise! Demonstrating they’ve learned absolutely nothing from those failed campaigns, they are now trying it YET AGAIN! So, expect Trumps approval to soar even higher, just as other time they’ve tried to jam this fairy tale down everyone’s throats with little to NO buy in from an ever increasingly skeptical public.
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
It will be difficult to compile everything as each day brings new surprises but there are some major immediate wins:
- Immediate border security re-established (per existing laws) with resumption of the border wall construction.
“Border Patrol recorded just 582 illegal crossings at the border yesterday,… the numbers have been falling off a cliff since Trump took office.”
Biden’s gaslight excuse? “I’ve done all I can do. Just give me the power. Give me the border patrol. Give me the people. The judges. Give me the people who can stop this and make it work right.” - Capture and rapid expulsion/deportation of criminal illegal immigrants.
- After denying the plight of over 300,000 children “lost” at the border, with excuses that they simply “misplaced” them, more than 80,000 have already been located and saved from further abuses or trafficking in the sex trade.
- Rather than deny the illegal criminal gang activity taking over apartment complexes in multiple cities, he promptly and efficiently allowed for the capture of a majority of their members and immediately deported them.
- The especially dangerous criminals (that no one wants back) to now be housed at GITMO in a facility long since designed for that purpose but never used.
- Swift, decisive and effective actions towards those opposing those efforts.
- Revoking of security clearances for all of the spooks who tried to insinuate that the Hunter laptop story was Russian misinformation – in order to severely impact the highly contested 2020 presidential election.
- After months of neglect, visited 2 major disaster zones – reassuring victims that help has finally arrived after FEMA failures and Biden couldn’t be bothered to interrupt his time at the beach to make such a call.
- In California, issued immediate EO’s and lobbied local officials to necessitate clean up as well as releasing immense reserves of water – previously wasted/diverted out to the sea. This idea was laughed at by the superior elitist’s when he mentioned it months ago and it’s already done.
- First day orders to alleviate energy issues – restoring American dominance in the energy field, with lower costs for domestic consumers, as well as additional leverage on the world stage in implementing policy.
- Multiple investigations being launched – all demanded by his supporters to uncover the shady deals of the past administration. THE TRUTH WILL FINALLY EMERGE! Those receiving the blanket pardons will all be required/mandated to testify. Being pardoned for their crimes, they cannot take the 5th and will be required to testify truthfully or will be subject to perjury or obstruction charges (that the pardons don’t cover) if they don’t.
- Protections returned for legitimate female participants in women sports, with nearly unanimous support from all sides.
- Protections returned for women in public restrooms and locker rooms.
- After months of alarm bells on how disastrous Trumps tariff policies would be for this nation, we see multiple capitulations from those countries being called out to do their fair share. So far, Panama, Mexico and now Canada have realized Trump isn’t fooling around. So despite the alarms we heard predicted would happen, instead we see what true leadership looks like.
Despite constant disruption and delay, cabinet nominees ARE being approved. All (IMO) are immense upgrades from those holding those positions previously. One such example is this common sense message from the new Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, about ending the DEI failures in the military:
“one of the dumbest phrases in military history is ‘our diversity is our strength,’” Hegseth said. “Our diversity is not our strength. Our unity and our shared purpose is our strength.” – and DEI initiatives work against that unity and purpose by artificially putting unqualified people in roles based solely on their skin color or sexual orientation, rather than merit and excellence.
That’s a lot to be excited (or alarmed) about, depending on your level of comprehension but they haven’t even touched on the health/food/pharma issues yet that are sure to make more heads explode.
RESPONSE/ULTIMATUM
Through all that, the response from those soundly defeated has been about what you’d expect at this point. The voters failed – they didn’t. The new tact now suddenly seems to be for the TDS-afflicted to confront their non-TDS family and acquaintances with the threat of cutting them off if they fail to bend the knee. We’ve experienced it, heard from others going through it, and have seen multiple comments about it very recently. As those stories are conveyed, they all follow the same script, with the same shame and condemnation that by voting for the evil orange man, we’ve all knowingly and willingly voted in a known Nazi who will lock them all up until they can be lined up in front of a wall.
The surprising thing I am seeing is that in nearly every case, the issuer of such demands is soundly rejected, with the recipient of the threats stating “if that is the way they want it, so be it”. The reaction to that rejection appears to be surprise – as they typically use the tactic to get their way and at this point, it no longer works.
If it wasn’t so tragically destroying families and relationships, I’d say it’s comical to witness. About the only hope for these misguided souls is that the revelations emerging in the coming months may open their eyes to the many lies they’ve swallowed that set them down that long path to the irrelevance and ridicule they are experiencing now. Time will tell.
PROJECTION/PREDICTIONS
There are SO many of these that completely flamed out so I’ll limit it to the most glaring – even if those who predicted them refuse to own them now. First, let’s establish some context from a comment left here about the under handed Harris “nomination” without a single primary vote cast for her:
“Candidate no one wanted or voted for? She literally has more support and endorsements (in less than a week) than any other candidate has ever had–ever. Your gullibility in believing lies you’re fed is absolutely astounding. I talk to other Democrats all the time and let me assure you, everyone I’ve talked to in the last week is absolutely unified, energized and thrilled that we finally have a candidate that can beat Trump by an even wider margin. They are grateful to Biden for putting his country ahead of his own ambitions and thankful that the Democratic Party realizes how important this moment is and is unifying behind one candidate.“
Resulting in:
- Republican Electoral College victory.
- Republican sweep of every swing state.
- Republican popular vote victory.
- Republican Senate victory.
- Republican House of Representatives victory.
- Numerous down-ballot Republican victories.
- INCREASED support for Trump from the following demographics:
- Asians
- Blacks
- Hispanics
- Whites
- Males
- Females
- Ages 18-29
- Ages 30-44
- Ages 45-64
- White college educated men
- White non-college educated men AND women
- Harris gains?
- College educated women
- Ages 65+
But, that’s not a mandate we are learning. because he only got 30% of ALL eligible voters – like dismal turnouts for elections here is a new thing.
They’re obsessing over facts and figures to marginalize Trump’s 2024 win while missing the point: They lost. Trying to take figures that illustrate where Democrats fell short to invent a moral victory narrative is why this party has run amok. There’s no accountability; they think they’re still right. They lost that privilege when Trump swept all the swing states and no matter how you do the math, the result is the same: Trump wins, and Harris loses.
In the meantime, we’ve learned that Republican favorability and affiliation is now at an all time high, while the same numbers for Democrats is an all time low. Seems, there’s not as much unity as previously thought so some recalibration is in order.
For the rest, let’s just refer back to their projections of what Trump would do if elected. They almost sound like conspiracies, don’t they?
“you continue to zero in on the most random points to make your case and it’s
truly embarrassing how easy it is to poke holes in your many vast conspiracies”
- Arrest and jail all his opponents – including locking up contentious media.
- Suspend the constitution and the Bill of Rights.
- Suspend all elections and implement a dictatorship.
- Cancel Social Security and Medicare.
- End ALL abortions and outlaw all birth control.
- Pretty much anything listed on the Project2025 platform that was decidedly NOT Trumps platform.
Exposing the lefts intentions is now like shooting fish in a barrel, as the receipts flow in from their past interactions – like this one justifying 4 years of hiding the man supposedly in charge from being exposed, with clear signs of rapidly advancing dementia shockingly revealed at each appearance.
We really don’t care if Biden’s memory is slipping, because we know that he is ultimately a competent leader who is supported by a competent VP and cabinet. Biden could be in a wheelchair using a speech device ala Stephen Hawking, and he would still have my vote. He could be replaced by a potted plant and the plant would have my vote… The fact that you don’t get it, that you don’t understand what a grave danger Trump is to our country does make you a MAGA extremist, so you’d better get used to the label. Anyone who still supports a second Trump term after seeing what he did during the first one and in the years afterward IS a MAGA extremist cult member. End of story.
The writer above is fond of “end of story“, “full stop” types of declarations, to be sure we all know of their superior standing as the final word on any matter, but yet seems to be unable to comprehend what really occurred that always seems to contradict those opinions.
It’s really just more of the same going forward where they’ll still need to resurrect and repeat their already debunked conspiracies to make their point because there is nothing legitimate left for them to stand on. The fact that many of their stances are the polar opposite of what they stated before is of little concern to them because the “threat to democracy” demands it.
- He mocked the handicapped (but mocking those with vocal cord damage, Asperger’s and now Autistic software engineers is perfectly ok).
- He called Nazi’s fine people – while their supporters protest by calling for the elimination of Israel and extermination of the Jews.
- Inject bleach (was never said) – while thousands prematurely die from vaccine effects.
- Bloodbath/Firing Squad/Ending elections/Suckers and Losers etc. etc. etc. In endless cases, once the story is fully disclosed, they just look silly and lose more credibility.
- Presidents can’t use pre-emptive pardons to shield from liability – unless of course WE need to.
- Believe all women – unless they are named Tara or Ashley.
The end result is ever increasing disgust with their “platform” as more and more awaken to the reality of what that platform was and actually DID to this nation. The fact that they refuse to see this only reinforces the argument that they only engage amongst themselves and look down and ridicule anyone who questions their ideology, no matter how valid.
From the critique of voters above:
“elites increasingly talk only to each other and come to believe that because there is consensus among them that that consensus is shared broadly…”
It seems that practice continues as they look over the smoldering ruins of their former “empire”, in trying to formulate a winning strategy going forward.
So, how is that been working out for you all so far? Not good?
Perhaps it’s a hint of that lovely “I told you so” hanging in the air.
