Beyond a Shadow of a Doubt

Beyond a Shadow of a Doubt

 

In this day and age there are things that easily trouble me. Daylight savings time – why cut off the top of a blanket and sew it to the bottom and call it longer, that sort of thing. Planned Parenthood worried about saving the lives of children through gun control – need I say more?

 

What really causes me concern is NOT whether or not anyone in the Trump campaign colluded with Russia or anyone trying to change the outcome of the 2016 election. Trump was like an unlikely family nag winning the Kentucky Derby (Sorry Gary Helberg). He came into the race with a huge disadvantage and did everything he could to convince people to vote for him and obtain enough Electoral College delegates to with the election. That’s why it’s called campaigning.

 

It is how George Soros a known foreign billionaire pours his money into vast resources that influence world economies and is suspected by many (me too) to be nothing more than an international and domestic terrorist, has assets in the United States and is wanted around the world, but is invited to sit with then President Barack Obama in the White House residence in 2016 just before the US election, but that is not called colluding with a foreign power? Oh no problem, colluding is not a crime right?

 

Why is George Soros not in prison? That’s what worries me!

 

If money talks and Soros has lots of it and a huge percentage of it comes from the treasury of the United States laundered through a variety of resources and agencies or dummy corporations and non-profits. Maybe the way to attack this kind of cancer is to change the laws? Or rather enforce existing laws such as RICO and others which say it is illegal to pour huge sums of money into political campaigns by private parties (individuals) and/or corporations.

 

It has been reported that George Soros is at least one of the powers behind the massive influx of immigrant invasions of the Unites States Southern Border with Mexico.

 

So why not follow the money? Is it because Soros is a foreign national? Does he pay US taxes on money he receives from the US government? It is conceivable that Soros has US legislators on his payroll?

 

In hindsight I have wondered how a black man from Hawaii was appointed to a state Senate seat in Illinois, elected to US Senator from Illinois and rose to become President of the United States in less than 10-15 years. After 8 years in the Senate and another 8 years in the Executive Office I believe the ultimate goal of Barack Hussain Obama has been the Secretary of the United Nations which is conveniently located in New York City, not far from the Obama Household Estate and within spitting distance of the White House. And how is it that his power radiates to today’s current events in Chicago?

 

That in my opinion is proof beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Soros – Obama connection needs immediate attention by the Trump Administration’s Department of Justice to restore confidence and trust throughout the American justice system.

The Crimeless Victim

Jussie Smollett

3-27-2019

 

The Crimeless Victim

 

Are you puzzled by the Jussie Smollett case that never went to trial? Let me back up a bit and refresh our collective memory. A young black man in Chicago reported a hate crime to Chicago police by stating that two white men wearing red MAGA hats attacked him beating him, slipped a thin rope noose around his neck, poured bleach on him while yelling racial and anti-gay slurs because he is gay and said he was in MAGA country (in Chicago?). That’s it in a nutshell.

 

During the investigation of this hate crime it was determined that Jussie Smollett had filed a fake claim against himself. Video evidence shows that this was a staged “crime” because the actor (Jussie Smollett) hired his two black friends to attack him wearing red MAGA hats. A host of charges were brought against him and he was released on $10,000 bond pending a hearing before a Chicago judge.

 

The reason for the entire charade was because the actor was dissatisfied over his salary. Rather than negotiate with his employer he staged this hate crime for the publicity. Well somebody has to pay the piper right? Headed to court with a host of 16 felony charges and case is closed right? Wrong.

 

Suddenly a plea deal is brokered by the Cook County Prosecutor Kimberly M. Foxx (remember her name for when she shows up in the Democratic circles) and at the urging of ex-Chief of Staff Tina Tchen for former First Lady Michelle Obama where charges are dropped, the $10,000 bond is forfeited to the city of Chicago.

 

The Prosecutor decided to drop all charges and seal the court records because “Jussie Smollett would have only gotten community service if convicted and he’s already doing community service!” That is what she said at a press conference. How convenient!

 

Even a former Obama insider and current Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel is outraged as is Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson. They are furious and rightly so as this is a clear case where prosecution is warranted but power and influence interfered with justice and puts a whole new spin on Chicago Politics don’t you think?

 

Yet Jussie Smollett’s lawyers claim he was the victim of the attack he in fact orchestrated against himself and has suffered enough already and his employers stand behind HIM in full support? Are they now going to give him a raise and pay his legal fees, or was that done as it has been reported by George Soros’s “contribution” to Ms. Fox’s yet to be declared political campaign treasure chest? I thought her campaign for AG was to clean up Chicago politics once and for all? Maybe it was just all for one?

 

It is no accident that the charges are dropped on the same day that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi had pre-arranged a meeting with former President Barack Obama and freshmen House Democrats giving them advice about getting their collective act together so they appear to remain human while advancing the Democratic agenda. Just think if President Trump scheduled a meeting to bring freshmen House members together, how many would have actually showed up? And besides, who seals court records after a no crime has occurred? There’s nothing fishy here just Chicago Politics with a Democratic twist. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Dismantling The Deep State Continues

3-26-2019

 

Dismantling The Deep State Continues

 

The completion of the Mueller Investigation dubbed “RUSSIAGATE” is not a reason to relax. Nor is it a time for overt celebration, America is in real crisis.  Entrenched members of the Deep State have been so brazen and complacently manufacturing one crisis after another for almost 3 years in their attempt to first prevent, and then attempt the removal of the President of the United States. Those actions in themselves are treasonous, yet the players saw themselves as being above the law and therefore invincible.

 

Armed with a vision for America, the determination and the experience to bring it to fruition and the mandate from above, President Donald Trump has accomplished impossible feats of statesmanship and leadership while battling the Deep State at home. Calling it like he sees it and pulling no punches he fearlessly and relentlessly labeled the Russian Collusion Delusion a “Witch Hunt” of unimaginable proportions.

 

Now vindicated by the AG’s summary of the Mueller Investigation it may now be time to begin going after real conspirators with foreign state actors and former US officials who conducted “Pay for Play” transactions while pocketing huge sums of money and at the expense of the national security of the United States.

 

There is a saying in the military and in government that even the appearance of misconduct will not be tolerated. Trading state secrets and national assets to foreign powers has never been condoned or openly accepted until the 8 years of the Obama Administration. It also makes me wonder about the 8 years of the Obama Senatorial terms? What nefarious dealings may have occurred during his tenure as a member of the Congressional Black Caucus which has become deeply ingrained within both Chambers of Congress? The political intrigue deep within the halls of Congress could make James Bond of 007 fame look like a choir boy as many of the deep state actors began surfacing and vocalizing their hatred of the sitting President of the United States – Donald J. Trump.

 

It is not the time for resting on our laurels. It is the time for a serious administration of government that leads to the safety and security of the citizens of the United States and conducting real investigations into the misdeeds of former officials within Barack Obama’s administration that have led to the deaths of thousands of individuals worldwide and to the massive influx of individuals with ties to terrorist ideology and organizations like the Muslim Brotherhood, ISIS and other terrorist sects. It is mind-boggling the extent of the deep state and I’m fearful that the surface has barely been scratched.

 

One thing to note when we humble ourselves before Almighty God, repent of our individual and collective sin against God and his commandments and we pray asking for Divine guidance and forgiveness it will not be man who brings deliverance. God has promised to walk through the valley of the shadow of death with us and it is God alone who will be our savior as a nation and as individuals submitting our will to His. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

 

God Bless President Donald J. Trump and God Bless the United States of America.

Take the 2020 Political Challenge

3-24-2019

 

Take the 2020 Political Challenge

 

Let me ask a serious question?

 

What political candidate do you feel has YOUR best interests at heart?

  1. A Democratic Party candidate with a platform on lower voting age to 16; stacking 2 more seats on the SCOTUS; abortions for anyone at any time before or after birth; eliminating the Electoral College; giving Social Security payments to illegal immigrants; more and higher taxes on corporations and individuals who are successful; legalizing prostitution between consenting adults; guaranteeing a free check, food, medical, education and housing to illegals and those who don’t WANT to work; taking away the right to own guns; allowing illegal immigrants to vote; doing away with the Constitution and opening up the border to ANYONE without question?
  2. A Republican/Independent candidate who will give voters a choice?
  3. The Republican Party candidate and current President of the United States with a platform of Making America Great Again and Draining the Swamp?

 

If you have trouble making up your mind prior to the 2020 election focus your eyes on Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea, Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar (Burma) and a handful of other countries caught in the death throes of Socialism, Democratic Socialism or Communism?

 

Out of all the nations of the world, name one that is similarly close to the Constitutional-Republic form of government of the United States of America?

 

Name one other nation where people come seeking a better way of life for themselves and their families?

 

Name any nation on earth where you are free to pursue your ambitions, endeavors and live as you please without pledging full faith and allegiance to that nation above all others?

 

Where on earth are you constitutionally free to speak your mind about the government or its leader without being thrown in prison, tortured or killed?

 

In case you named one I urge you to go there for a trial run (like you do with a sexual partner without committing first to marriage) and stay there for one full year. If at the end of one year you are not eager to return home rest assured you ARE what is wrong with this country. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Typical Democrats and Their Campaign Promises

3-23-2019

Typical Democrats and Their Campaign Promises

Is it me or does anyone else notice that because Donald Trump was able to do the impossible during the 2016 election becoming the first totally out of the blue (pun intended) non-politician to win the Presidency since maybe George Washington? It now is fashionable for Democrats to jump on the winning bandwagon style politics because it worked for Trump even though they said it couldn’t be done.

Already the 2020 campaign season is more like a cross between a box of mixed nuts and a bowl of fruit salad all rolled into one and it hasn’t really started yet. Here are some of the presidential hopefuls and their brazen ideas to capture the American vote and ascend to the White House.

Career politician and former VP Joe Biden is the party favorite (in his own mind). He says he’s the only one that can take down Donald Trump in 2020.

Then there’s former Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper who will suspend the death penalty when he’s elected.

Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) is an independent running on the Democratic ticket and promising to turn the nation into a Socialist state with him at the helm.

Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) promises to expand Social Security benefits to Illegal Immigrants because it’s their ‘right’.

Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) is in favor of legalizing prostitution because it’s between two consenting adults and they shouldn’t be punished for it. As a former CA prosecutor who has used sex to her further her own political career she should know. She also wants to eliminate the Electoral College so every vote counts.

Beto O’Rourke says it’s a woman’s decision to get an abortion at any time during her pregnancy and he’s vowed to tear down the despicable wall along our southern border.

Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) just wants to be president.

Other politicians want to lower the voting age to 16; allow illegal immigrants to vote; return the right to vote for convicted felons who are still IN PRISON; add two more seats on SCOTUS to offset the constitutional justices currently on the bench; tax the superrich 70% – 90%; give free money, food, housing, education, and medical even for those who don’t want to work; tax businesses more and punish those who tend to leave; remove guns from citizens, ban concealed gun carry permits, but leave criminals with their guns; euthanize seniors at 70 years of age; and require minority voters to vote Democrat; they are even scheming to prevent President Trump’s name to appear on the ballot in certain states (they haven’t heard of write in’s)?

Senator Mitt Romney (R-UT) may run as a Democrat as well because Trump isn’t fit to serve as President.

Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush says Republicans need a choice in 2020, but will he run as a Democrat too?

It’s clear that Congressional Democrats are all feeling their oats and in their own minds feel they can beat Donald Trump in 2020. With all the rumbling, mumbling and unorganized political posturing coming from the left and the right the one thing I haven’t heard coming out of their mouths is anything resembling common sense. The Democrats are like a man out on a limb, cutting the limb off between him and the tree trunk. The one thing that is sure to happen is the re-election of President Trump in 2020 and we’re almost to April of 2019. I wonder what hair-brained ideas will surface over the next? – I am the Real Truckmaster!

On the Special Counsel Mueller Investigation – Russian Collusion

3-22-2019

 

On the Special Counsel Mueller Investigation – Russian Collusion

 

You knew it was coming and I wouldn’t want to disappoint anybody at this point as the investigation has been going on for more than 2 years at a tremendous cost to US taxpayers. Today Special Counsel Robert Mueller turned over to Attorney General Barr his full and completed investigative report.

 

Although it may take several days before the report is made public I have it from a reliable and unnamed source that no collusion has been found between then Candidate Trump and any of his campaign staff. In fact it should be noted that even though none was found, the obvious question if collusion in itself is not even a crime, why bother in the first place?

 

The next questions may be what about the former campaign staff members who pleaded guilty of lying to the FBI, the DOJ and to the Vice President of the United States? They have been sentenced for offenses unrelated to the initial charge of Trump Campaign and Russian Operatives Colluding to impact the 2016 and prevent shoe-in Hillary Clinton from obtaining the golden key to the White House (she may still have her old one).

 

Will President Trump conduct a blanket pardon of those who worked closely with the President during the campaign and/or during the initial 100 days of his administration?

 

Another serious question is whether the US Attorney General or any other government or private agency or organization sue the AG’s office to reclaim funds spent in this reckless pursuit of a sitting President?

 

Finally will foxes in the wild sue Fox News for defaming foxes with their shameless turn away from reporting actual truth as it appears in the news?

 

The moral is that a hunt for witches without knowing where they hide turns into a big fat Nothing Burger, a prelude to the 2020 Presidential Campaign season’s carnival acts of the Democratic Party. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

You Don’t Know Jack about Trump

You Don’t Know Jack about Trump

 

Contrary to what you may have heard or have been led to believe Donald Trump comes from a hard working family who emigrated from Europe and settled in the neighborhood of Jamaica, Queens in New York City. Nothing was handed to him because of who his father was. His work ethic came from his father’s example and the inner drive that has determined his course in life.

 

“Remember this, nothing worth doing ever, ever, ever came easy. Following your convictions means you must be willing to face criticism from those who lack the same courage to do what is right. And they know what is right, but they don’t have the courage or the guts or the stamina to take it and to do it. It’s called the road less traveled.” – President Donald J. Trump

 

There have been a great many misconceptions, deliberate misquotes and outright lies about Donald Trump that are often repeated by politicians from each American political party and reinforced in the liberal main stream media and on the internet.

 

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.” – Joseph Goebels

 

By comparison how much media attention has been given to Barack Obama during his tenure as President?

 

Capping off 8 years of the Obama’s administration President Obama told a fundraiser in San Diego, California that there has not been a “major scandal” in his administration, according to a White House transcript of the October 23rd 2016 event shortly before the November presidential election.

 

Maybe he forgot or simply couldn’t bear owning up to his administration’s targeting of conservative groups by the IRS; the veteran’s excessive waiting time or lacking adequate health care at VA facilities; the administration’s lack of response to terrorist attack resulting in the 9/11/2012 Benghazi loss of 4 American lives (Including Ambassador Stevens); running guns to Mexican cartel that resulted in the death of a border patrol agent; the Hillary Clinton missing emails and mishandling of classified documents while Obama’s Secretary of State; drawdown of American military and others to include allowing the fake Russian Collusion Dossier to be used in an attempt to invalidate his successor in office President Donald Trump.

 

Referring to Representative Darrell Issa (R-CA) who was the former chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee that had conducted a number of investigations on the Obama Administration

 

“Here’s a guy who called my administration perhaps the most corrupt in history, despite the fact that actually, we have not had a major scandal in my administration,” Obama told Democratic donors.

 

From the very beginning there have been stories circulated about the playboy lifestyle, marriages and even about Donald Trump being a draft dodger whose rich father paid off a doctor to keep him out of military service during the Vietnam War Era. Granted Donald Trump was no choir boy but Fred Trump was no slouch either.

 

Donald Trump grew up in New York back in the late 1950s and as he began to get into mischief his father sent him to the New York Military Academy. During his 5 years at the academy Donald becoming involved in sports (baseball and boxing) and excelled with military discipline and training under the guidance of Colonel Dobias a hardened combat veteran of World War II.

 

Fred Trump worked hard and insisted that his son Donald learn the trade literally from the ground up. How many presidents or politicians can run a plumb-line? In fact he learned every facet of building, to include obtaining permits and contracting. In the construction field as in his everyday life “good enough” was never the standard, with Donald it was excellence. He learned from NYMA that winning was everything, it was the only thing!

 

It was many years before he formally took over the business from his father, but one thing Trump learned early on was branding. He learned from his father that any job worth doing was worth doing right the first time. Trump believed in being proud of what he built, so branding the Trump name was his way of declaring that not only was the project done right, but it was beyond being good, it was built with a standard of excellence.

 

Many people confuse Trumps branding with self-absorption or a huge ego. I’m sure his ego had a lot to do with it and it is his personality and within his character to keep others at a distance. Everything and everyone is calculated as to whether or not they are contributors to enhance the bottom line – Winning.

 

“It’s a very imperfect world, and you can’t always choose your friends. That’s life. But you can never fail to recognize your enemies.” – President Donald J. Trump

 

Donald Trump has been politically active his entire adult life. Not as a politician, but often as a political supporter of politicians who he likes or believes in their ability to deliver on their campaign promises. It would be interesting to see the names, dates and amounts of Donald Trump’s political contributions and their political party affiliations. Although conservative he has been a Democrat until recent years.

 

I can see how Donald Trump’s triumphant entry into the 2016 political campaign cycle was designed to make a statement like on other. It did. The grand elegance of Trump Tower, coming down the escalator with Melania Trump at his side caught the nation and the world of politics by storm. A storm it has been from day one. The media feeding frenzy has not let up one bit since that 2015 day at Trump Tower.

 

The sad thing about this is how the political community have closed ranks and made it their mission to stop Trump at any and all cost. Many of these same politicians were all too glad to receive those campaign contributions and have their pictures taken with the Rich and Famous Donald Trump, but now refuse to acknowledge that he is their president.

 

One thing that has not changed is President Donald J. Trump’s commitment to America.

 

“I would rather take a political risk in pursuit of peace, than to risk peace in pursuit of politics. As president I will always put what is best for America and what is best for the American people.” – President Donald J. Trump

 

The mood in America is beginning to change and just as the political elite prepare to go to battle for the 2020 Presidential Elections. Even so it’s a great time to be American and to give Almighty God thanks for this land that we love and for a President who is not apologetic when it comes to the free expression of worship to the creator God.

 

“America has always been the land of dreams because America is a nation of true believers. When the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth, they prayed. When the Founders wrote the Declaration of Independence, they invoked our creator four times, because in America we don’t worship government, we worship God. That is why our elected officials put their hands on the Bible and say “so help me God” as they take the oath of office. It is why our currency proudly declares “in God we trust.” And it’s why we proudly proclaim that we are one nation under God, every time we say the Pledge of Allegiance.” – President Donald J. Trump

 

I urge you to lay aside your pre-conceived ideas and notions of who, what or why Donald Trump is or aspires to be. Let Trump be Trump!

 

Trump is a man on a mission for truth, justice and the American way. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

On the Trump – McCain Controversy

3-21-2019

 

On The Trump – McCain Controversy

 

Yes I know you don’t want to hear it but I’m going to say it anyway and maybe again for some readers. While it’s true that John McCain served honorably in the US Navy during the Vietnam War and spent 5 years as a POW and in the Hanoi Hilton. That in itself doesn’t make him a war hero. It does make him a survivor. After his release from captivity and his return home he left the service and carried on with his private life. He divorced and married again. Many people have done that exact same thing.

 

However John McCain politics is another story entirely. As a Republican Senator from Arizona he was a man driven to succeed his way. He was short-tempered and at times an outright ogre, yet Shrek hadn’t been created yet. There was no shortage of political allies in the House and in the Senate, but an abundance of political enemies as well.

 

John McCain attempted on more than one occasion to ascend to the political high office of the US Presidency but failed. I’m sure that he was repulsed at the thought of a President Donald Trump who succeeded where he and others had failed miserably.

 

During the Trump presidency and up until McCain’s death it was no secret that John McCain publicly became a thorn in the side of the President, but siding with Democratic allies on voting down a number of bills aimed to further the Trump agenda even at the expense of the will of the American people. McCain criticized Trump repeatedly and on the eve of his death made a point to express his desire that Trump NOT give the eulogy. During the televised funeral the media made a point of criticizing President Trump for not attending, even though Vice President Mike Pence and the Second Lady were in attendance.

 

So every time the President is questioned about his opinion as it pertains to John McCain it has been made very clear that Trump is not a fan of McCain and never has been. With the recent revelations about McCain’s pandering of the fake Russia Dossier to the FBI, DOJ and/or the media those feelings against McCain are brought to the surface one more time.

 

Then another reporter asks the President about McCain as if they are going to get a different answer? A glowing report maybe? It’s not going to happen. It is not President Trump’s nature to be politically correct in his answers or his opinions on people he doesn’t like or respect. There are a number of people who come to mind and John McCain is one.

 

I find it hypocritical for all the political posturing by past presidential hopefuls and those hoping to cash in on the 2020 campaign cycle which is already upon us. Senator Mitt Romney (R-UT) says he’s all tore up about the President attacking his deceased friend John McCain. Where was Mitt when McCain was trashing President Trump on the floor of the Senate and in the media?

 

These are three Republican Presidential Candidates whom I had voted for in each of their quests for the presidency and I’m not sorry that I voted for President Donald J. Trump. I can’t say the same for McCain or Romney.

 

Everyone has an opinion about everything and I don’t see that President Trump expressing his opinion about McCain as an attack. It is simply one person’s opinion about another and at this point in time even a Republican President is entitled to expressing his opinion when asked, especially after finding out facts and circumstances that were expressly designed to bring about his downfall by an elected US Senator and the administration of the previous US President and his administration. – I am the Real Truckmaster!

2020 is for All the Marbles

 

Jeb said Republicans need a choice in 2020; Biden said he’s the one to beat Trump in 2020; Pelosi calls Trump a bully – while she herds her democratic colleagues and tag along RINOs in a voting frenzie against Trump; Schumer calls Trump unfit; Waters cries for Impeachment; and All the other Democratic hopefuls are going to lower the voting age, allow illegals to vote; stack the SCOTUS with extra seats; save us from global warming; give us the Green New Deal; Free education, medicare for all, free phones, free rent, free food and free money to those who just don’t want to work; plus tear down that stupid wall……… Many of them are congressional newbies or current politicians with years of experience doing nothing in the halls of Congress.

 

Free isn’t free no matter how it is packaged!

 

Ask the soldier spending his or her days in the sandbox?

Ask the mother, father, spouse, son or daughter who received the flag on behalf of the President of the United States and a grateful nation?

Ask the parents who buried their child murdered by an illegal alien?

Ask the parents of an aborted child AFTER birth?

 

So tell me what’s in it for America? 2020 is for All the Marbles! – I am the Real Truckmaster!

Using Every Tool in the Toolbox

Using Every Tool in the Toolbox

 

Have you ever visited the home of a home builder or a general contractor? What you find will amaze you. There could be saws, hammers and all sorts of tools for a host of specialties. Maybe even a bucket lift, a cement mixer or a sawzall. Builders are by nature creative. They have done it all and still have the tools to prove it. The really good ones have some of the really good tools too. They surround themselves with guys who can individually do a host of specialty skills like electrical, plumbing, painting and carpentry work. They know what it takes to bring the job up to code.

 

Leaders are a lot like builders. They too surround themselves with guys who know how to get things done. They know a job worth doing is done right the first time. Leaders just have a different toolbox to choose from. There are guys who are right for a certain phase in the creation or development of a specific job like a guy with a certain skill set. One person can size up a business, a department or a specific job and has a working knowledge of how to turn things around or tune it up. However it may take an entirely different person to take it to the next level. A good leader knows when to step up his game and bring in the right person and at the right time.

 

Isn’t it funny how people are always quick to criticize something they know absolutely nothing about? They are the ones who can tell you how things ought to be done, but have no experience in doing what they are telling you what they think you should do. Does that make sense?

 

Military leaders are another breed altogether. Their toolbox is full of knuckleheads, sometimes fresh out of basic or advanced training schools. They are the privates who are eager to please. They answer as they’ve been taught to say “”Yes Sergeant”, “No Sergeant”, or “I don’t know Sergeant”. Once they’ve been in the unit a while it becomes “Why me?” or “Can’t you get someone else?” and they get lax or lazy. It takes a good leader to come in and turn things around and get them re-focused and back on track.

 

The same thing is true with the President. A new president will come into office and disrupt things by bringing in new blood or in his case a new Administration. His transition team has worked closely with him to insure the right people go into the right jobs. Often it’s a combination of former military personnel going into positions dealing with the military or foreign affairs. Looking at things from the outside it may look like some of the people are simply rich people going into positions without any rhyme or reason. Yet everyone’s quick to give their assessment of the situation they have no experience with.

 

When there is a shakeup or a change in cabinet level leaders or in the White House staff the media goes crazy with all kinds of evaluations and public criticism as to why the change is being made. Personality clash with the President; disgruntled former insider tossed out in the cold without any reason; the President picked the wrong guy or gal for the job.

 

It never occurs to those naysayers that the President is just pulling another tool out of his vast toolbox. Sometimes you need a screwdriver and other times you need a sledgehammer. It’s been said that you can’t remake a first impression.

 

I can honestly say that I’ve never been President of the United States. I have however 20 years’ experience as a military leader. It is essential to come into a job knowing what the mission is for both the unit and your section. You must size up the situation, determine if you have the right men and women to get the job and the mission accomplished properly. Sometimes you have to adjust by rearranging or reassigning personnel to new or differing duties. Other times you remove people and bring in new ones. Never have had a previous section leader come back to criticize how you are handling the section. That’s why you don’t normally hear a former President criticize the current President over how his administration is leading the United States domestically or in foreign affairs.

 

I venture to say that if we as a people would keep our noses to the grindstone, focused on OUR best interests and doing what is best for ourselves and our families we wouldn’t be concerned as to whether or not our President is doing his job the way WE think it should be done. After all we have no dog in that fight, do we?

 

If we listen to all the political banter it usually comes from politicians sewing discord and discontent in an effort to gain enough votes so that they can go in and mess things up for all of us. Gone are the days when we can see our economy growing and on the world stage other nations are seeing strong leadership coming from the White House yet hear nothing but politicians telling us how messed up we are for backing such a leader as President Trump.

 

Let me leave you with this thought. This successful builder and entertainer has done in such a short time while putting up with the egocentrically challenged political left because this President has both a vision for America and the knowledge and experience to make it a reality.

 

As we approach the Presidential Election cycle for 2020 all the political bantering I hear coming from the left is simply talk with no substance. We have failed politicians who are currently in Congress and have been for some time without making a case for themselves that is backed up with any substance, yet they want us to believe that they have all the answers? Once a politician always a politician, kissing babies and making them cry by promising them the moon and what they have no intention of delivering.

 

I urge you to Vote for America! Don’t vote political party, we are better than that! – I am the Real Truckmaster!
