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 20^th 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

Trump Derangement Syndrome 2.0

I remember when the party of “Democracy” went into a full-fledged TDS hissy fit, tissues were in high demand and I believe subsequently led to the toilet paper shortages we saw during the covid lockdown period. Women in particular were hysterical; men not so much (unless they self-identified as other than men).

Who would have guessed that even the thought of another Trump presidency would trigger TDS 2.0? This time women again are being hysterical as they self-isolate themselves with no sex and no babies with men. To show their commitment and to seal the deal women are shaving their heads.

As we approach the holidays it is politically okay to unassociated with family members and/or friends who voted for Trump. Don’t ask, oh well!

The biggest takeaway I see in this behavior comes in something I read online (not on FB either) that after the inauguration of 2021, there was “an agreement” between Biden and Harris whereby it would be a joint Biden-Harris Administration. I’m pretty sure that isn’t what voters voted for.

But since the office of the Vice President is a CABINET POSITION dedicated exclusively to carrying forth the agenda of the elected President, going where told and saying what to say, this should have been an easy task – no pain, no gain. Well that didn’t happen, now did it?

So the article I was reading indicated that there must have been tension from the beginning between the President and the Vice President, since there was tension between the staff of both offices. It seems that the VP Chief of Staff eclipsed the President’s Chief of Staff and that may never have been made public or even resolved.

Remember when President Biden began suffering mental lapses and seemed to be mentally absent much of the time in public? After the presidential debate with Trump, Democratic leadership and Biden’s former colleagues in both the House and Senate exerted pressure for him to terminate his bid for re-election for the good of the party and throw his support behind VP Kamala Harris. That must have been a hard pill to swallow at first. Biden readjusted his attitude going forward and did just that.

After the failed presidential campaign by VP Harris (Kamala) you’d think the pressure was off and Biden could focus on the duty at hand – being President. Not so fast. It seems that a “former” VP staffer had the audacity to suggest that Biden step aside and pass the torch to VP Harris – as a reward? After all Biden’s legacy is that he is the only one to beat Donald Trump. Harris should have a legacy of being the first woman president right? Wrong!

This selfish attitude is one of the reasons the election ended the way it did. Another reason is the fake candidate pushed upon Democratic voters. (AOC was right)! A candidate and a campaign without substance is a failing one from the start.

But the Democracy Party isn’t finished. As President Trump puts forth his nominees for the various cabinet positions TDS 2.0 requires the “ladies” (I use the term loosely) of The View, the hosts of CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, NPR and CSPAN (all I can think of at the moment) are losing it over President Trump’s picks. They are going into full panic mode and that alone tells me that the Trump B-2 is dead center over the target. (Just remember Objects in this mirror are closer than they appear.)

I don’t mean to sound cynical or as if I don’t care. I do care, really!

Like you I’m not a Trump mind reader and I don’t understand his methodology but his intent is very clear – DRAIN THE SWAMP IN DC, and now we can see that the swamp rats are squirming and they see the writing on the wall – NO MORE BUSINESS AS USUAL.

I have long felt that our government is too corrupt, bloated and has out of control spending with lots and lots of pork waste. I’m hopeful that Trump-style change can affect the needed changes – for the sake of our children and grandchildren.

I would love to see Trump move many downsized government agencies out of Washington, D.C. and relocate them into the interior of the nation where they could become more effective.

Don’t forget that Trump’s mandate was to be God’s Sword against the Spirit of Political Correctness and to restrain evil attacking the nation. – RTM

My Way

Every day we see commercials and advertisements telling us to – get paid when we say; law firms will get us the money we deserve; food additives, medications and supplements will make us feel younger, have more hair, slim-out those ugly wrinkles and on and on.

Frank Sinatra’s song “I did it my way” put that spark of forgetting the rules or in some cases common sense doing things his way got the end result he desired.

It may have worked for Frank, or maybe it was just words on the pages of a song?   

Clint Eastwood’s television persona used “My way or the highway” to get his point across.

The bible tells us that God’s way is the narrow way, the only way is through the Son, Jesus Christ to the Father who is in heaven, yet we constantly want to believe that it doesn’t apply to us. In fact if we had our way nothing would apply to us, just to everyone else around us.

A little food for thought, If it were not for Jesus Christ, we would get exactly what we deserve…..death, spiritually and for eternity (longer than time). So the next time you ask, no demand what you deserve……think about that!

Salvation is a gift from God that no man may boast and that my friend is called Grace that only God can supply. Thank God for HIS Grace!

If you don’t know God, you can’t even begin to imagine what God’s grace is. Believe God is, trust that what God says is, and ask for God’s grace to fill your heart and give you peace.

God say’s his ways are higher than man’s ways. Certainly my way is not God’s way, but it’s a struggle that I have every day – make me like you Lord, make me like you! – RTM

A Byproduct of Freedom

If you believe the political hype about “Safeguarding Democracy” you must know and understand that without Freedom democracy is simply an organized government controlling the lives of its people.

The United States of America is not a democracy.

The United States of America is a Constitutional-Republic, in fact the only one in the world. It has been declared in our Declaration of Independence that All men are created equal and endowed by our creator (God – not government) with certain inalienable rights – LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.

The Constitution of the United States is the Rule of Law to be upheld, defended and obeyed by all who come to our land by birth or by choice.

What Americans have endured over the past 4 years is an overpowering government trying to force democracy down the throats of Americans with mandated executive orders and government regulations that not only prohibit Americans from living out their American Dream, but requiring Americans to adhere to the constricts of those government regulations under penalty of fines and imprisonment. Unrestricted that is democracy in a nutshell.

Government is by the people, from the people and for the people. It is WE THE PEOPLE who have the final say in how we are to be governed. It is the responsibility of government to provide a safe and secure land where we can prosper, grow and raise our families.

We must all understand that when government intrudes into the lives of its people, there can be no equal justice or opportunity simply because we are individuals with differing wants, desires and needs. It is up to us to strive to achieve OUR goals with hard work and perseverance. – RTM

Failed Leadership A Review of the Joe Biden presidency

When President Biden assumed the office of the presidency he listed as his Biden-Harris Administration Immediate Priorities that he will deliver bold action and immediate relief for American families as the country grapples with converging crises. This will include actions to control the COVID-19 pandemic, provide economic relief, tackle climate change, and advance racial equity and civil rights, as well as immediate actions to reform our immigration system and restore America’s standing in the world. 

With 68 days left of Joe Biden’s presidency you be the judge of how he lived up to his promises?

Did Joe Biden deliver bold action and immediate relief for American families as the country grappled with converging crises of COVID-19, economic relief, climate change, racial equality and civil rights, reforming our immigration system and restoring America’s standing in the world?

Are we better off now than we were 4 years ago?

The election of 2020 was questionable at best. The ballot harvesting, extended counting, legal challenges and the issue of January 6^th were just a tip of the iceberg. It seems that voters didn’t vote for a president, but for a joint Biden-Harris administration, so that means that Americans must hold both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris jointly accountable for every detail of the presidency, right?

Isn’t the office of the Vice President a cabinet position under the President? Does the Vice President not serve at the pleasure of the President? It is her duty to put forth the agenda of the President, not her own agenda?

Kamala Harris said that she was in almost every meeting of importance with Joe Biden. Yet when asked during her campaign why she didn’t implement changes that she felt needed to be made she replied “I’m not the president” or “I’m not Joe Biden and I’m not Donald Trump” When pressed for additional information about whether there is anything she would do differently than Joe Biden, her reply was “Nothing comes to mind”.

The media has gone so far as to say that Donald Trump made Kamala Harris look worse than Hillary Clinton [in 2016]. I beg to differ. Kamala Harris is solely responsible for the way she looked.

What I gather from reading various articles, watching televised appearances and doing my own evaluation is that while Joe Biden failed to take an active leadership role in his own administration it has led to a breakdown of trust and increased contempt by his own party that rivals the contempt of Donald Trump expressed by Democratic Party surrogates and both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

The Democratic Party rule over the American people has gotten out of control to the point that any form of respect has been replaced with widespread contempt of normalcy or common sense.

American voters are not stupid! They want to be treated as if they matter, and they do. In fact the Constitution says so and the Declaration of Independence makes it clear that an out of control government can be replaced.

Politicians can and should be replaced when they stop being public servants. Joe Biden’s lengthy career in Congress, the office of the Vice Presidency and as President of the United States is a perfect example of someone who may have gone into politics for the right reasons, but his quest for power would not allow him to simply step aside at the height of his “game”.

What I feel led to his downfall and ineffectiveness is related directly to the DNC leadership and Joe Biden’s presidential handlers and his immediate family. They should have not pressed for him to run for president and/or reelection. I call that elder abuse and yes it is a crime! – RTM

Organized Democratic Resistance 2.0

There is still an underlying “Safeguarding Democracy” resistance movement within the Democratic Party when it comes to President-Elect Trump’s second term as President. What American’s may not realize is that the organization stems from and is fueled by “The Democratic Governors Association” composed of the governors of 32 Democratic lead states as well as Progressive Congressional Democrats.

They justify themselves in resisting the GOP agenda which according to them endangers their autonomy as governors of independent states concerned for the welfare of their state, it’s citizens, their residents and their democracy (paraphrasing a recent phrase of the Massachusetts governor).  These sentiments are parroted almost word for word by Democratic governors of Blue States.

Might I remind anyone who is in doubt that public safety of American citizens is the responsibility of government (federal and states).

I find it unconscionable for the Department Of Justice or agencies of the federal government to interfere with federal, state, county or city law enforcement agencies during the enforcement of US law.

What I also find unacceptable are elected or appointed government officials who routinely ignore the enforcement US law or who go after US citizens engaged in protecting themselves, their families or others at home or in public places when being assaulted by criminals.

It seems to me that organizations such as The Democratic Governors Association or the Progressive Democratic Party or any other organization who incite resistance, looting, rioting or assault on individuals and government leaders should be cited under conspiracy statutes, sedition or other applicable federal laws where prosecution and imprisonment is an applicable punitive action.

More Democratic Nonsense?

As we celebrate Veteran’s Day 2024 the Democratic Party is focused not on paying tribute to our nation’s veterans, but are locked in a game of “Whack-A-Dem” over why Kamala lost the election.

I kid you not!

It was bad enough that the democratic think tank brains dug Biden and Harris out of last place in the 2020 democratic debates to make them the winning team to beat Trump, and when poised to do it again Biden was yanked to the curb and hastily replaced by Kamala as the new face of the democratic party to wage a losing war against Trump in 2024. Pelosi recently said that Biden should have dropped out of the race for reelection sooner.

There are Harris staffers expressing the absurd, “Biden resign so that Harris can be crowned President”. This late in the game it only goes to show how radically selfish and demented they have become with no respect within their own party.

There is a process whereby VP Kamala Harris could argue that Joe Biden is unable to perform his duties as president, get it verified by a number of cabinet secretaries and she would become the first ever Black East Indian female “TEMPORARY” President in American history.

Has anybody thought of that? It was tried by then House Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Schumer when they tried to get VP Pence to enact the 25^th Amendment on his boss President Trump but Pence didn’t buy into it.

With all the outlandish, dastardly things to come out of the minds of democrats it wouldn’t surprise me to hear from the Oval Office President Joe Biden borrow a Trump line and say to Vice President Kamala Harris. “YOU’RE FIRED” and finish out his term without a Vice President like Nixon did without Agnew.

It’s clear that the Democratic Party has not only abandoned the working men and women of our nation, but they have abandoned their own “HEAD” of the Democratic Party – Fiery Joe Biden, #46^th President of the United States while he sits in the Oval Office. – RTM

The Act of Conspiracy

Over the past 8 years there were so many conspiracies after the Trump 2017 inauguration that continued even until today like talk that Trump conspired with Russia to first rig the 2017 election, the 2020 election and again to influence the 2024 election. In fact so loud was the commotion that nobody paid attention to the number of elected members of congress who have actually conspired to prevent Trump from executing the office of the Presidency or being elected for another term.  

I decided to find out for myself the definition of conspiracy and according to The American Heritage Dictionary:

conspiracy /kən-spîr′ə-sē/

noun

1. An agreement to perform together an illegal, wrongful, or subversive act.
2. A group of conspirators.
3. An agreement between two or more persons to commit a crime or accomplish a legal purpose through illegal action.

The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition • More at Wordnik

Then looking back at how members of congress (House & Senate) came out with the same talking points that urged resistance from all levels of our society to death threats to Trump, his family, cabinet secretaries and now his MAGA supporters I find that much of what we’ve seen, heard or experienced may in fact be criminal in nature?

Not wanting to waste government resources or taxpayer funds I would invite the Speaker of the House to convene a real “special investigation” to ferret out criminal activity within the Congress, the Media and all federal and state government’s agencies to determine whether legal action occurred and whether termination/prosecution may be warranted?

Another area of concern is when a state or federal appointed/elected official decides to run for the office of the Presidency/Vice Presidency that in order to demonstrate commitment to the public and to themselves for the campaign season, they resign their elected office when they sign their intent to run. This could change the tenor of campaigning by weeding out those who are simply running without any hope/desire of winning.

America needs a real attitude-adjustment when it comes to politics. – RTM

They just don’t get it

Is it any surprise that the “ladies” of The View feel the way they’ve been told to feel? One of panel member asked, “Why they voted for him [Trump]…and his divisive party instead of for the party of inclusion [that routinely dismisses voters and anyone who disagrees with their point of view] by the people, for the people and of the people”.

Let me clear up something right now. That is exactly why the results of the Presidential Election turned out the way they did…….votes by the people, of the people and for the people, everyone regardless of political or cultural bias.

To paraphrase in part what President Biden said about Trump and MEGA republicans….”they say what they mean and mean what they say”. This is a start contrast to Vice President Kamala Harris ditching direct questions, waving her arms and using that huge cackling smile to say absolutely nothing of substance.

If you have watched even one of the more than 250 Trump rallies you will recall that inclusion is a bed rock of the rally’s Make America Great Again theme. American’s of any or no political party have repeatedly been encouraged to join the MAGA movement and the results of the election show that a great many have done so, at the expense of the ruling Democratic Party.

Nobody wants to hear some “holier than thou” left leaning talking head scold us because we chose to reject the narrative being pushed upon us. When Democrats talk about Trump and MAGA being a threat to our democracy, what they are really saying is that threat is to THEIR POWER over the citizens of our Constitutional-Republic.

Patriotic Americans do not care about a Democracy that is doomed to failure, as we have seen in any number of third-world, developing nations across the globe where the “ruling class” headed by a dictator control the very lives of their subjects.

The United States of America is a nation of laws as stated in the US Constitution and the Bill of Rights where dictatorship is not found or entertained. Our nation stands for FREEDOM, where everyone is created equal by our creator without class, wealth or a proverbial “silver spoon” in their mouth. – RTM

Did God Really Call Trump His Wrecking Ball?

It is a fact that God cannot lie. The bible tells us that at times God can be swayed by the fervent prays of righteous men and women.

In the fall of 2015 New York Real Estate Tycoon Donald J. Trump confided to Pastor Paula White (Tampa, Florida) that he felt that God wanted him to run for President. Although it wasn’t an easy decision Trump accepted.

God’s ways are not man’s ways, however because God IS, everything HE says is 100% true.

It happened that in September 2015 Pentecostal Kim Clement had been scheduled to a meeting at Trump Tower where he intended to deliver “a message from God” about Trump. Clement suffered a stroke and was unable to make it to the meeting.

It turned out that another Pentecostal Lance Wallnau was asked to come to the meeting after it was made known that Wallnau had also received “a word from the Lord” that was to come to Clement came instead to Wallnau and he was told to speak it to and over Donald J. Trump.

You may be saying “this is nonsense” but as I said earlier God never ever lies.

The words: “Donald Trump is a wrecking ball to the spirit of political correctness” came to Wallnau more than once. Then Pastor Darrell Scott (Cleveland, Ohio) invited Lance Wallnau to this September meeting of black religious leaders and Donald Trump at Trump Tower. Before the trip Wallnau heard the Lord say, this second time, God spoke right to my ear, and said, ‘The next President of the United States will be the forty-fifth president, and he will be an Isaiah 45 president.’ I didn’t even know who Isaiah 45 was talking about, so I opened it up—the Bible, and it says, ‘Thus says the Lord to Cyrus whom I’ve anointed.’ Right then I knew that Donald Trump corresponds to the Cyrus character in the Bible. And that he—the wrecking ball—would be the forty-fifth president.” Wallnau read further into the chapter: “And I will build for Israel my people’s sake” and “Though you have not known me.” – The Faith of Donald J. Trump

How could this be?

God has used and does use anybody he pleases, even non-believers in what we call “common grace” to restrain evil. Saving grace is what gets a Christian saved.

Without the grace of God the world must pay the penalty for sin – death!

Lance Wallnau, “I told Trump that the reason God’s hand was on him was because of the grace of God—to restrain evil. And that he would be the forty-fifth president of the United States. And when it was over, Mr. Trump knew that I had prophesied over him.”

It is always hard to believe that God would choose a sinner like Donald Trump to become president, but that is how God operates, using the most unlikely to do the impossible. God used David (the youngest of Jesse’s sons) to be king and God sent HIS son Jesus as a baby born in a manger to die for the sin of the world (The lion and the lamb). Man looks at the outward appearance while God looks at the heart. Many are called and few are chosen.

A sure sign that Trump was chosen by God is the sheer number of attacks levied against Trump from the time he came down that escalator in 2015. Although the attacks were many and severe Trump did not deviate from what God had called him to do. Come against the spirit of political correctness and restrain evil.

Many people expected Trump then to serve 8 consecutive years in office before fading away into obscurity or returning back to his real estate empire.

I look at it this way. God called Trump at this time and for a specific purpose. Until that purpose has been fulfilled there is nothing on, over or under the earth that can stop what God has begun?

People say they don’t like Trump because of his language, his tweets, his mannerisms or any number of other excuses they can drum up. I will say that Donald Trump is not a “Billy Graham” type, nor does he pretend to be. God gave us a fighter. A man determined and able to win for the American people at any cost and when America wins the world as a whole wins, not because it’s Trump, but because God is in it.

Sadly a great many Christians did not vote in 2016 or 2020 because of their personal bias against Trump so God gave America what they wanted and for the past 4 years it has been demonstrably clear that there is one last hope for our nation for God to finish his plan for America using Donald Trump. However don’t forget that nothing surprises God. In fact nothing happens unless God lets it happen. There are no “accidents” with God.

There are but 2 days before the Presidential Election of 2024 and Irregardless of political party affiliation it is the DUTY OF EVERY AMERICAN CITIZEN TO VOTE! There should only be one standard – which candidate more closely adheres to the biblical principles outlined in the Bible? Do YOUR principles follow biblical guidelines? Do not lie cheat steal kill covet or disrespect parents (elders) or disobey God’s laws?

We have but one standard “Love God, Love Everyone as we love ourselves”.  – RTM
