Looking Back on Trump Rewriting the Book
I first posted this in December 2017 near the end of Trump’s first year as president. What I said then is still true today. If it wasn’t so true it would be funny, but prominent people “in the know” seem to think that telling President Donald J. Trump he can’t do something is going to make him change his mind. It only fuels his motivation and makes him that much more determined to push on thru.
Before he decided to run for president, the name Trump was well known in New York City, Atlantic City and all the way down to Florida for his real estate deals. There were some deals that fell through and cost him a tremendous amount of money, but didn’t stop him. He just found other ways to push thru with his philosophy to never give up.
President Trump is a wild card and that scares those lifetime career politicians. Trump is brash, outspoken and very unconventional. Trump is the quaint essential un-politician who is an author of several books, but since 2015 Trump has been rewriting the political book of “You Can’t Do That”!
Presidents have used various media to get their messages out and Trump grasped social media in a way that others could not. Roosevelt used the radio for his fire side chats talking friend to friend. Reagan used television a media that he knew. Obama used late night talk shows and thought of himself a star. Trump used Twitter giving those on the left and their media lackey’s a huge hissy fit. When technology changes, so has Trump’s use of it. Twitter banned Trump while he was the sitting president and Elon Musk bought Twitter, cleaned it up, rebranded it as “X” and Trump has been tweeting ever since.
Donald Trump speaks what’s on his mind, not necessarily as a casual off the cuff remark, but after giving it much thought. Trump tells it like it is and because it’s spontaneous and unpredictable it may come across as crude or “not very presidential”, yet the media is all over it like flies on……….honey.
So why is it that prominent world leaders know exactly what Trump means, yet so many (or so few liberal) Americans can grasp it?
I find it refreshing that a successful businessman can do what he does best – look at government like a business, bring in fresh, experienced and highly successful men and women to evaluate the situation and bring about much needed changes that are much like a clock maker, fine tuning a Swiss watch. Changes aimed at bringing back American pride; pride in manufacturing; pride in working toward the American dream. Having pride in the accomplishments of the people who make up the American workers, through hard work, dedication to service and helping others is something to be sought.
Being so proud of yourself that you resent what you don’t have and the only outlet is to lash out at symbols of freedom and use all your energy to tear down anything that you feel is “oppressive” or representative of something evil in the past. How oppressive is that? Turn your energies into something positive.
Our government has become so huge like a machine that gobbles up people, spits out rules, regulations and laws aimed to enslave society as a whole and has gone unchecked for way to long.
It’s time for someone to say “check mate”, “Stop”, “There has to be a better way”.
President Donald J. Trump has said that he is not the savior of America or of the world. Unlike his predecessor who sought the office of President for various reasons and said all the good things they would do once elected, but did he really make things better? Trump knows the savior of the world, Jesus who is the Christ, and when following the leading of the Holy Spirit of God things will get better for America AND for the world.
It has been a long time since one man so determined to bring about real change in government with an open and aggressive agenda to return to the strategy he began in 2017 to fix what is wrong in America.
A major part of Trump’s agenda has been to “Drain the Swamp” in D.C. What began as a campaign slogan caused rumblings coming out of Washington that is the sound of the swamp creatures afraid as their power is being taken away.
Donald Trump didn’t seek the presidency for power or prestige, he had all that. Nor did he take on the job of president for money, he had more than enough. He didn’t do it so he could fly around in Air Force One, not when he had Trump One with golden faucets and all the elegance of HIS own choosing.
President Trump didn’t seek the presidency so he could be ridiculed over every word he says. In business his employees were totally committed to making sure he was happy and satisfied on everything he saw, felt or touched. As far as worldly riches, Trump had more than enough.
What a far cry for the man who had everything money, power, prestige, a family whom he loves and who loves him, why would he take on the job of president?
Deep down inside like many of us when we see something wrong and think to ourselves “Somebody outta do something!” and we forget that we are somebody and we can do something. Donald Trump said I WILL do something. I will run for president because America needs me and I will win.
Everybody laughed at him.
They said it couldn’t be done. Even when the community organizer said “He will never be president”.
Everybody laughed.
If I know one thing about Donald J. Trump (whom I’ve never met), when you tell him it can’t be done, he will prove you wrong. I don’t know of anything that Trump has ever done in his life that he has not done to win.
Failure is not an option with Donald Trump. Quitting is for losers and Trump is not a loser.
President Donald J. Trump is for America winning again on the world stage. Trump is an entertainer and he doesn’t put himself into a situation where he plans to lose.
Love him or hate him, Trump is for you – winning again.
Trump is a President who believes in taking care of America First – secure our borders (finish that wall); rebuild our military (prepare for war, live in peace); Talk Straight (say what your mean) and Mean What You Say; hold your loved ones close and your enemies closer.
Draining the swamp is first and foremost on Trump’s mind during his second term and that scares the daylights out of those swamp creatures.
In the days to come after January 20th America will experience changes like never before. Good changes, positive changes and changes that will secure FREEDOM for all American’s.
Stay focused – keep the goal in sight and above all “Run the race to win”.
In everything you do, do as unto the Lord. Do it to please God above, not man below. If you live to please man you aren’t living at all. – RTM
