Donald Trump and Elon Musk have something in common….
“It must be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to plan, more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to manage than a new system. For the initiator has the enmity of all who would profit by the preservation of the old institution and merely lukewarm defenders in those who gain by the new ones.”
For Elon Musk it is the organization of Twitter with 7,500 employees dedicated to ensuring he would never succeed in his takeover effort. From the board of directors to the data engineers who build the controlling algorithms, to the third-party service providers who manage the data demand, there are likely only a handful of people within the entire corporation who would welcome the type of change Elon Musk represents.
As a result of the scale of opposition, any organizational takeover would ultimately deliver a company filled with sleeper cells and activist agents who consider it their personal and ideological mission to destroy the social media platform rather than accept change. The purchase effort was doomed from the outset, considering Musk represented something akin to Rand Paul being nominated to lead the World Bank or Federal Reserve. Some stuff just isn’t possible.
We The People attempted the Musk route when we sent President Donald Trump into Washington DC. However, instead of one institution with 7,500 people, it was dozens of institutions housing hundreds of thousands of entrenched ideologues. Most MAGA voters did not realize it at the time because grade school civics was never updated with our post-9/11 political outcome.
Imagine what the 7,500 Twitter folks would do as employees within an institution they abhorred overnight. What scale of effort would be exhausted to kill baby Elon Hitler for the greater social good? You don’t have to go too far in your imagination, because that’s exactly how Washington DC reacted to Trump’s arrival.
From day one to day one-thousand-four-hundred-sixty-one, no opposition was too much opposition by anyone, in every institution and every branch – including both wings of the UniParty congress, upper and lower chambers.
The threat that Trump represented needed to be managed, attacked and ultimately removed. There were/are trillions at stake, and keep in mind, DC is the epicenter of the global financial universe. As a result, the financial foot-soldiers of almost every western nation were aligned to assist the DC system in removing the threat.
Sometimes I laugh at the hindsight of people who say Donald Trump had terrible judgement in his appointments. I snicker because these are the same people who said General James “Mad Dog” Mattis was the greatest military leader since George Washington. How did that role as defense secretary work out?
No wait, Trump could have done a better job against the 74,000 people in the United States Dept of State, extending like metastatic cancer around the globe from their primary origination point in foggy bottom DC.
Oh, I’m sure the Ron DeSantis advocates have a plan for that, just as assuredly as they can jump to the typeset to instruct Musk how to modify the personnel outlooks of the social media network. Something that involves the multi-billion global media corporations folding up shop to shift their ideological compass headings, right?
Maybe free cookies will help the kids who work 3 hours a week, smile as they adjust to a 40-hour expectation.
I’m told that Donald Trump also planned badly to take over the 90,000 employees and $8.7 billion payroll at the U.S. Dept of Justice. Trump should have listened to the advice of the esteemed and well-regarded senior Senator from deep red Alabama, Mr. Jeff Sessions, who was also praised effusively by the same conservative crowd who praised the Mad Dog. If only Trump had installed a great stalwart for conservative principles like Sessions. Alas, we lost the opp… wait, huh, no.. wait,.. I mean, what?
Former UN official Ric Grenell was awesome as the “acting” Director of National Intelligence. If only President Trump had nominated Grenell from the outset, instead of that insufferable DC insider from the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, Dan Coats, things would have been so much better.
With an ODNI confirmation from the same senate intelligence group that was trying to block Trump from ever reaching Washington DC, things would have been awesome. Hey, why is that “Acting” word always in front of Grenell anyway? Oh, wait, the “Republican” committee members wouldn’t what?
Alas, if Trump had only done a better job of hiring the 2,400 people who work for the White House, he would have avoided all of those horrible stealth terror cells who were in place to facilitate his removal. Surely it wouldn’t have taken him that long to go through the candidate pool and interview everyone willing to live within a 100-mile radius of the epicenter of morality and truthfulness known as Washington DC.
And boy did President Trump ever screw up with his 400+ staff National Security Council, who report to the National Security Advisor and come from every executive agency, including intelligence, to deliver wholesome and practical advice to the oval office holder they hated.
I’m sure Musk has a better plan to manage the Silicon Valley coders who design the algorithms at the Twitter. I mean, Musk and Ron DeSantis being all smarter than Trump would have a plan for stuff, right?
Speaking of “intelligence”, what was candidate Donald Trump thinking when he selected former Indiana Governor Mike Pence as his vice-presidential running mate? I mean everyone in the republican sphere of conservative politics hated Mike Pence in 2015 and 2016, knowing his conservative bona fides were a mask just waiting to drop and create havoc for the America-First agenda. I mean it’s not like everyone didn’t know Mr. Pence surrounded himself with liars, fabricators and political club staff who hated the Tea Party base. We all knew that in 2015 and 2016, right?
If only Donald Trump had hired the right kind of people within his administration, then the multinational global corporate media would not have needed to treat him like he was the walking personification of the antichrist. A few people here, and a few different people there, and everything would have gone swimmingly.
Many people know -to a demonstrable certainty- that Ron DeSantis has, right now, a list of about 200,000 people ready to move themselves directly into Washington DC and finally change the system for the better. I am certain this list exists because all the right crowd in conservative media tell me they are sure of it.
These betters are the people who would know such things because they knew Senator Ted Cruz was the reformist lightbringer in 2015. The word is that DeSantis uniquely carries the power to replace every corrupt republican member of the House and Senate simply by raising his chin a certain way when the sunlight glistens upon him.
It was the Fourth Quarter of 2019…..
….despite two years of doomsayer predictions from Wall Street’s professional punditry, saying Trump tariffs on China would create massive inflation…. It wasn’t happening!
Overall year-over-year inflation was hovering around 1.7 percent [Table-A BLS]; that was our inflation rate. The rate in late 2019 was firmed up with less month-over-month fluctuation, and the rate remained consistent. [See Below]
A couple of important points. First, unleashing the energy sector to drive down overall costs to consumers and industry outputs was a key part of President Trump’s America-First MAGAnomic initiative. Lower energy prices help the worker economy, middle class and average American more than any other sector.
Which brings us to the second important point. Notice how food price had very low year-over-year inflation, 0.5 percent. That is a combination of two key issues: low energy costs, and the fracturing of Big Ag hold on the farm production and the export dynamic:
(BLS) […] The index for food at home declined for the third month in a row, falling 0.2 percent. The index for meats, poultry, fish, and eggs decreased 0.7 percent in August as the index for eggs fell 2.6 percent. The index for fruits and vegetables, which rose in July, fell 0.5 percent in August; the index for fresh fruits declined 1.4 percent, but the index for fresh vegetables rose 0.4 percent. The index for cereals and bakery products fell 0.3 percent in August after rising 0.3 percent in July. (link)
For the previous twenty years food prices had been increasingly controlled by Big Ag, and not by normal supply and demand. The commodity market became a ‘controlled market’. U.S. food outputs (farm production) was controlled and exported to keep the U.S. consumer paying optimal prices.
President Trump’s trade reset was disrupting this process. As farm products were less exported the cost of the food in our supermarket became reconnected to a ‘more normal’ supply and demand cycle. Food prices dropped and our pantry costs were lowered.
The Commerce Dept. then announced that retail sales climbed by 0.4 percent in August 2019, twice as high as the 0.2 percent analysts had predicted. The result highlighted retail sales strength of more than 4 percent year-over-year. These excellent results came on the heels of blowout data in July, when households boosted purchases of cars and clothing.
The better-than-expected number stemmed largely from a 1.8 percent jump in spending vehicles. Online sales, meanwhile, also continued to climb, rising 1.6 percent. That’s similar to July, 2019, when Amazon held its two-day, blowout Prime Day sale. (link)
Despite the efforts to remove and impeach President Trump, it did not look like middle-class America was overly concerned about the noise coming from the pundits. Likely that’s because blue-collar wages were higher, Main Street inflation was lower, and overall consumer confidence was strong. Yes, MAGAnomics was working.
Additionally, remember all those MSM hours and newspaper column inches where the professional financial pundits were claiming Trump’s tariffs were going to cause massive increases in prices of consumer goods?
Well, exactly the opposite happened [BLS report] Import prices were continuing to drop:
This was a really interesting dynamic that no-one in the professional punditry would dare explain.
Donald Trump’s tariffs were targeted to specific sectors of imported products. [Steel, Aluminum, and a host of smaller sectors etc.] However, when the EU and China respond by devaluing their currency, that approach hit all products imported, not just the tariff goods.
Because the EU and China were driving up the value of the dollar, everything we were importing became cheaper. Not just imports from Europe and China, but actually imports from everywhere. All imports were entering the U.S. at substantially lower prices.
This meant when we imported products, we were also importing deflation.
This price result is exactly the opposite of what the economic experts and Wall Street pundits predicted back in 2017 and 2018 when they were pushing the rapid price increase narrative.
Because all the export dependent economies were reacting with such urgency to retain their access to the U.S. market, aggregate import prices were actually lower than they were when the Trump tariffs began:
[…] Prices for imports from China edged down 0.1 percent in August following decreases of 0.2 percent in both July and June. Import prices from China have not advanced on a monthly basis since ticking up 0.1 percent in May 2018. The price index for imports from China fell 1.6 percent for the year ended in August.
[…] Import prices from the European Union fell 0.2 percent in August and 0.3 percent over the past 12 months.
* “We The People attempted the Musk route when we sent President Donald Trump into Washington DC. However, instead of one institution with 7,500 people, it was dozens of institutions housing hundreds of thousands of entrenched ideologues. “
Let’s make that many dozens, possibly hundreds of institutions (both governmental and indepedent) housing milions of entrenched ideologues.
Right now, President Trump is live:
https://rumble.com/v1dd7jx-live-now-president-donald-j-trump-on-stage-at-sas-2022powered-by-turning-po.html
Federal government too big to fail while failing miserably.
I really think he could leverage the MAGA brand as Speaker of the House for the next two years, strangling bureaucrats by cutting funds, plus investigations of everything. He could still campaign for President in the 24 election. No more continuing resolutions, unless they came with a 25% cut. Audit the IC. Continue the January 6 committee with real attempts to expose everything.
AGAIN…..BAD idea….not only did HE say he is NOT interested…..WHERE does he get the time for a 2024 campaign?
Unless you have someone else who could do it better, the continuing damage may be irreversible. His work as Speaker would be a major part of the campaign. Would you be satisfied with McCarthy doing the job? As to his saying he isn’t interested, one of the reasons I voted for him is that he is flexible. If he wants the job, he wouldn’t say so now, at least not publicly.
you can see my MANY comments on McCarthy posted here over the years….I have intimate knowledge of his effectiveness as a legislator as he was MY representative for a number of years when I lived in CA…….I deal in REALITY and what can and should be done……wishes and fairy tales I leave to the Left…..once again, and it was said now twice on just responses to THIS post….PDJT has said HE is NOT interested…….to do so would REMOVE him from an effective 2024 POTUS campaign…….although SotH sets the voting agenda in the House, the Uniparty has already demonstrated the measures they are willing to support with votes on the floor
something to REMEMBER…..unless you want PDJT operating naked again starting in 2025 he needs time for HIS campaign AND to support like-minded House and Senate candidates….AGAIN ….WHERE does he get the time?
The only reason for it would be if Biden/Harris were successfully impeached so that Trump would become president.
I guess the Democrats are hoping to sufficiently cheat to mitigate losses in 2022 midterms.
Should they massively fail, the best strategy for the uniparty is to have underlings immediately admit election fraud in 2020 and have Trump reinstated into office before Jan 2023. If he serves more than 2 years, he can’t run in 2024.
unless you removed the ENTIRE line of succession at one time or PROPERLY declared the 2020 STEAL as a fraudulent election (will not happen) PDJT’s ONLY way back into 1600 Pennsylvania Ave is by an overwhelming choice of the electorate in a general election…..it SHOULD have been done in the Nov 2020 – Jan 2021 Timeframe but Roberts’ SCOTUS is populated by a majority of cowards
The way I see it is that under devolution, Martial Law needs to be declared at some point since the military knows that the election was stolen with the help of foreign entities. The military then fixes this mess by arresting those that they suspect committed treason and hold military tribunals. They can prove Trump actually won the election. Nuremberg action is absolutely necessary to ensure that this never again happens or at least, for many generations. After the steal is fixed and the perps punished, Trump can then take the office he was elected to.
I forgot one point. He takes office after 1/20/2023. It will take a long time for tribunals considering the number who committed the dirty deed. Only then can he run again in 2024.
Newt Gingrich?
Geezus.
Newt is totally establishment feeding off the government trow. Remember his embarrassingly getting caught at it using history as his excuse when getting caught?
Have heard rumors that Sarah Palin will put her name in the hat for Speaker if she wins her race in November…can’t imagine that she would actually get the gavel if she ran, considering how many RINOs are in the House, but it would certainly liven things up if she got the votes!
Sarah Palin would be a great Speaker of the House; so we need to make sure when we vote this year we put in as many MAGA House candidates into office as possible!
I think MTG has paid her dues for speaker.
Agreed – and there’s no way Sarah becomes Speaker of the House.
Xiden sat in the basement and ran, just saying. LOL.
Wouldn’t that give piglosi a stroke!
You could pay down the national debt if her handling over the gavel was pay per view.
I think she already had her stroke, Trump could finish her off !!!!!
If only!!!
She’s looking more and more like she already had one. Plastic skin doesn’t look very good on her.
I guess it really doesn’t matter what you think or fantasise, as he has already made it clear he has no interest in going that route.
Practically speaking, it is the House membership that votes for Speaker.
Technically, the “majority party” selects by behind closed doors, who they select.
And then, as a courtesy the minority party agrees to vote for that selection, so they can say it is unanimous.
There is no way the Democrats controlling the Republican caucus like McCarthy and Scalise, would EVER agree to voting PDJT as Speaker, and NO way the Declared Democrsts controlling the Democrat caucus, would vote for PDJT.
Frankly, the whole idea is somebodies wet dream fantasy, and I reccomend you ignore anything said, by whoever suggested it to you.
The backroom negotiations have already begun. Who is endorsing any conservative who wants to be elected? Who does every Republican candidate go to see to get an endorsement? Who is the best negotiator in the country? Can 4 years in the White House two and a half years from now do more to fix things than controlling the spending starting right away? Can you drain the swamp with executive orders? Or can you downsize by cutting off the money? How bad can Mcconnel, McCarthy and Obama make it in two more years?
We ain’t seen nothing yet.
What makes you believe he would get the votes in the House to make him Speaker? No way … the RINO’s would freeze him out.
You think the current congress are going to vote for PDJT for speaker? Not a chance. It’s called the UNIparty for a reason.
All of Congress stopped Trumps recess appointments.
Truth hurts sometimes…..but only for the ones who never believe in it.
SD- This is one of your best if not THE best opins.
God Bless you, me and the USA!
This very much needed to be said (especially the first half of this, before the economic analysis).
Sundance just knocked it out of the park and smashed a car window in the 50th row.
I hope Zerohedge picks this one up for a wider audience.
And Cernovich for one can go suck a lemon for his opposing take on this fairly key point.
yes, I agree, I am so glad I checked back in to see this latest post, I will sleep better tonight !!!
Current economic conditions is the direct result of us voting for Trump. Our punishment is this administration doing everything to collapse our disposable income.
They punished us with labels like “white supremacists” and domestic terrorists”, they imprisoned wrongly many who were legally protesting the wrongs, they forced on us vaccine mandates and now they are punishing us with energy mandates. They are going to try with all of their might to make us take their medicine. We better not let them.
Let’s punish them in November!!!!
By walking THEM into the Potomac.
They call us “white supremacists” while their policies are driving particularly the poor and non-white citizens into increasingly desperate straits. WHO are the racists and supremacists again??? Trump pulled EVERYBODY up, while fighting impeachment hoaxes, double agents and (my bet) numerous assassination attempts! He knew it would be an insane 4 years and put himself and his loved ones through it FOR US!! I pray he comes back to the WH, but if he doesn’t we’ll still have lived in the Time of Trump.
Exactly! And, to refer to another recent posting — no bugs!!
Let them sow the wind.
I will not be deterred.
..”And now they’ll reap the whirlwind!”
Yes, the whirlwind, the reckoning — is coming!
Do you really think it would be any different minus Trump?
Yes, he would have vetoed all these liberal Bills, no Ukraine problem, no Taiwan Problems!!!!
There is The 16 Year Plan To Destroy America. The first 8 years were 0bama and the next 8 were to be Hillary. PDJT set it back FAR MORE than the 4 years of his admin. One used to be able to find the meme graphic for this all over the internet but there’s an obvious reason why it’s being hidden. It’s at this link and if you save the jpg you can blow it up for easier reading.
https://gametheorypolitics.locals.com/post/127913/you-decide-the-16-year-plan-to-destroy-america-hussien-8
One problem with your link,and it is this,
“Q’s – QAnon”
Trump stalled them. We would be 4 years further down their road to serfdom. At least Trump woke up America, and proved through his policies that DC is the boot on the neck of America.
^^^This^^^
He and the handful of people he could trust set them back years.. And for anyone who doubts that, look how crazy he’s made them now!
Have you familiarized yourself at all with the WEF — NWO objectives?
The global satanist cabal don’t give a rat’s ass who voted for Trump.
The goal is not about punishment— it is about total annihilation. They could care less what you think or believe.
Regardless, they want you dead.
Their purpose has always been to eradicate global populations.
Yes, this has been a long time coming. GHW Bush signed us onto UN’s Agenda 21 New/One World Order in 1992.
Sundance- pure perfection.
So sorry I posted this on wrong thread. Realized too late to delete.
It’s about the TN House health subcommittee saying that the vaccines do not prevent Covid ….
It is a respiratory disease.
Great overview of the challenge.
Assuming we have a MAGA House and Senate, plus PDJT, it would seem that firing the deep state and moving its functions and budgets to the States would be the only peaceful way forward.
But without a sufficient level of election integrity and MAGA voters even this long shot can’t happen.
Even just sending them all home with pay but no responsibilities would help.
The amount of damage they do to the productive economy is many fold their pay.
Then stand up a much smaller group of MAGA only DOJ etc.
While Trump’s chances of reforming DC stood at less than zero, it’s hard to place Musk’s odds of reforming Twitter quite as bad. For Musk to have even stood a chance putting a dent in Twitter, he would have had to had his own loyalists embedded throughout the company 18 months before he ever even showed up. Maybe he did. Hostile takeovers have a specific playbook. The leftist hacks who think they stand really tall within the takeover target are drilled out the first day. All of their access is cutoff and somewhere around 30% of existing employees need canned day one before they have time to do any damage. Loyalist by that point already had a company preservation plan in place. If Musk didn’t embed loyalists well over a year ago, he would have never succeeded.
‘IF’ we win the Senate, Mitch has gotta go! It may not be much, but at least it’s a new coat of paint.
Yes, he needs to go — however, he’ll still have an iron fist, and we’ll still have a bunch of quisling uniparty members, so I’m hoping he’s sick of it all and just folds his tent. But, I’m not deluding myself that that will/can happen.
Amen.
I am sick to death of all these people acting like it was possible to find and get hired or confirmed and security cleared on top of that thousands of people who actually wanted to change DC.
Add to that, if 90 percent of the worker bees in the federal agencies are partisan Democrats with a few Bush-loving Republicans, what in the world could he have done.
They will undermine him at every turn without having to be told.
Schedule F.
Do it.
Not to mention, sadly for the human beings and their families on an individual level, in DC there is probably 95 percent compliance with the mandates. Probably 80 percent got a third or even a 4th jab, true believers all.
Which means as VAIDS sets in, over the next year to five years, the morbidity and mortality rate of the SES class might make the Great Plague (1/3 of Europe) look like a cake walk in the DC suburbs.
It is terrible to sit on the sidelines and see the iceberg begin to hit, almost completely helpless to stop it, when so many friends, family, and acquaintances are on the ship – almost all of them deaf to the shouts warning them to get in a lifeboat.
Don’t forget there’s a large population of illegals and poor blacks in DC and some of the inner suburbs and working class whites and blacks in the outer suburbs that didn’t take them.
The white/Asian residents of DC and the inner suburbs and more affluent suburbs could be decimated or worse though. I hear contractor compliance was above 90% at all the biggies. Then there’s the white tech workers who all bought into the plandemic.
There are so many crazy people in the DC metro – they still where masks and rush their kids to get jabbed.
Mass formation is a lot like The Hotel California. You can check out anytime but you can never leave.
Yes, knowing all the while there is not a single thing we could do or say to change them – they are cast in stone.
I can tell you from years of experience, 80% of the security clearances in the government are not needed.
Well yes, but they require them for Whitehouse staff and they have politicized that process bigtime.
And they really don’t seem to do much good. It is all kinda a joke.
Security clearances may not always be needed for security purposes, but they can be valuable for fiscal ones. Hire someone to do a trivial government job (yeah, I know, I repeat myself) at $200,000 a year and they snap their suspenders and think they’re oh so important. Same job, same person, at $100,000 a year and now you have a potentially disgruntled employee ’cause they’re not making the big bucks. Same person, same job, but this time make sure a top level secret squirrel security clearance is a mandatory job requirement and you can have that very same person snapping their suspenders thinking they’re oh so special and important, and you can do that paying them $75,000 per year.
And 80% of those aren’t deserved.
He should have fired, or demoted as many people as he could. Look, Biden is doing it. He’s removing all remaining MAGA people. Why couldn’t Trump do it. Biden is purging, so could have Trump!!!
The only thing Biden is doing is pudding shots downstairs in the rec room. It’s Biden’s handlers that are doing the hiring, firing, promotions and demotions. And they’re doing it with substantially greater influence in DC politics than Trump could ever have hoped for.
The difference is the media stands behind Biden 100% and was at war with Trump. The media is in control
No, I doubt it. They would have Lawfared him into taking them back.
Biden is drooling and pooping his depends.
His satanic globalist handlers are removing MAGA people because they have the power to do so.
Again, a president is not a god.
Stop thinking that any branch of our government has power. The power is held by the Satanic Global Cult (the UN, WHO, WEF, etc.) who have existed covertly — now overtly— for a long time using various titles and affiliations.
They are outed now.
Their stated goal is to destroy the people of the world.
Due to the fact I am a member of the world population— I hope we win.
“There is only one Great MAGA King”
Yes, absolutely the one and only! As lyrics from George Strait point out…
Baby, write this down, take a little note
To remind you in case you didn’t know
I am glad to see SD express the truth of the matter here with so many shallow thinkers insufferably attacking PDJT for his “bad selections” when PRC Mitch held the levers of control about who got approved through the nomination process……..many either ignore or forget that not one instance of a US Senate recess occurred in PDJT’s 4-year term to allow recess appointments to bypass this de facto choice in who were placed in the executive department at the management level by the legislative branch……..pro forma session for 4 years gave Cocaine Mitch and his criminal cohorts all the control they needed to impact PDJT’s agenda
attacking PDJT for his “bad selections”
No one wanted to work for PDJT because anyone with half a brain knew the swamp/deep state would do everything possible to destroy them.
Because of that his choices were extremely limited.
NOTE that they were absolutely right and that PDJT is two years out of office and they’re still attempting to destroy anyone who actually worked FOR him.
And NOTE that they AREN’T going after Barr, Sessions, or Pence who worked AGAINST him.
Exactly, general Flynn for example, among many others.
A MAGA Congress is a critical addition to PDJT second term.
Navarro, Bannon and many others.
And a free election is critical to a MAGA Congress.
Trump could be living the life of luxury his wealth affords. Instead, at his age Trump endures and fights to save this Country for us Americans. It is why I have no patience for those who sit on their rosy ass and complain about Trump. We are an affluent Country of too many losers (“woe is me”).
I had my issues with PDJT in Jun 2015 when he first announced thinking it was another of the many stunts he had pulled over the years…..after watching for about a month I realized he had had a “Road to Damascus” moment……..looking over the landscape he realized America was in serious trouble…….looking at his family and legacy he was concerned for the future for his children and grandchildren…….I am not sure if he had his moment of salvation before his declaration or as I think one of the many meetings he took with religious leaders where he saw even with his imperfection true Christianity will celebrate your new relationship with a Loving God and help you to grow in your fellowship……I do believe PDJT is saved and it is a wonderful example of how God is able to take the flawed and use them to great effect for His Purposes
Only people with rifles and employing them will save this country.
It is why I believe in the military being the ultimate solution. They are the people with rifles. Space Force was not formed by Trump for the purpose of chasing flying-saucers around the moon.
Except so many currentilitaty regard DC elites as their bosses. Heard out of the mouth of a family member who is a marine. I doubt they even care to know the constitution. Just filling orders is what the vast majority do these days. Compliant is how the elites like them.
Hear, hear!
Astute political observers know that Mitch, with his no recess policy, is the epicenter of antimaga. We mustn’t forget, who held the House, Senate and Whitehouse in 2017? Hmmm.
Chris “Cannoli Poisoning” Christie pushed Wray and Lord knows what other bad ideas.
VP Traitor was also pushing a lot of the bad choices behind the scenes….unknown if PDJT took them as wise counsel at the time or knew they were the best he could get through Cocaine Mitch at the time
You can say what you will about Vice President Mike Pence. I believe it was he who made President Donald J. Trump knowledgeable concerning the Sanctity of Life.
Our President is now an outstanding advocate of Life. May God bless both of them.
And THAT is why I say they are ALL corrupt.
Beautiful summary of why I’m Trump or Bust.
Indeed. We aren’t ready to start over with DeSantis … relearning the obstacles to reform. MY President’s been there and done that. His second term will be the culmination of MAGA!
Bazinga! You tell ’em Sundance!
Raise your hand if you ” Identify ” with @JackPosobiec new tweet just now – ( nice pants )
Normie , stuck in the Matrix -Vs.- Free Thinker
You might have to post a link. Not sure what this is about.
Keep saying it, Loud and Proud, Sundance!
(I know you will).
There is only ONE,.
.and he is now building a base of tried and true, battlehardened MAGA people, so that by the time he is putting together his transition team, he will not be forced to choose career political appointees committed to the swamp.
Instead he will have an army, just as committed to dismantling the swamp, as he is.
Excellent!
For the past 15 yrs., we have operated a handful of restaurants that are franchised. So, we have seen prices that were super stable for many years.
In the past 30 days, the cost of chicken breast (uncooked/unbreaded) has doubled.
Other items have also had drastic increases.
Even if we increase menu prices by a small percentage, our customers
would never understand if we doubled our prices.
What’s more, our increases would negatively affect the employees. Folks are not prone to leaving a larger tip after they have paid an exorbitant price for a simple grilled chicken dinner.
Our employees would get less work when our sales drop, too.
Something has got to give.
” CARBON sacrifice ” – to the Gaia world order
Like vaccines, carbon sacrifice should be voluntary, not mandatory. I love the smell of carbon in the morning.
Grill bugs instead!
I hear you. The Chick-fil-a we go to on weekends has incrementally increased their prices from 2020. Probably half again as high. They’ve been trying desperately to hire people for months – the advertised wage on their sign has started at $14 and is now $17. (They also require you be full jabbed in order to be hired, too, I checked on the website, so that might be part of it.)
But. Yes. I hear you. The local farm had signs up saying that diesel had doubled in price of 2020, to explain their price hikes. We’ll keep buying from there as long as we can afford it, anyway.
I don’t care what Chick-Fil pays. The required “Jab” kills the deal and they can go pound sand.
Yes obviously. Although it does give rise to some interesting speculation about the decreasing workforce and the constant complaints of “no one wants to work!”
We drove up to our daughter’s house about three hours from hear last week (NC). Usually, we see semi-trucks up and down that Interstate. We saw a few, but mostly panel-type trucks making short trips. That tells me alot about the price of diesel.
I said from the outset of the Trump “drain the swamp” effort that the swamp was the lichen, fungus and algae (aka government functionaries). Good luck trying to drain that.
Of course, draining the swamp would be a difficult task. I mean who didn’t think so? It is why Trump knew his army had to be MAGA people. What do you think all these rallies are about? It is all about MAGA patriots. Trump is not running for office. Trump is running to save America and needs the MAGA “army” to defeat the “Bad Guys”. Ask yourself, “Is the MAGA army bigger or smaller today than a couple months ago?
Agent Orange?
You are correct, although laughing at readers for our opinions that partly came from you. I seem to remember you being a big supporter of Jeff Sessions as well, but maybe I am just not remembering correctly.
I am curious if you think if Trump can get back in the White House if it will do any good. I personally don’t think they will ever let him back in, no matter what they have to do.
Trump’s a fighter and I admire him for that and he did some amazing things while president – unfortunately they have been undone tenfold.
Maybe he can help start the new America when the dust settles.
It really comes down to whether they let us put him back in. We voted him in by a landslide. They stole him from us for 4 years.
Directly hit the nail on the head. Well said.
Trump is the great MAGA King.
Know how I know?
As much as I have always liked and respected DeSantis….he was in Congress once. Remember? He never sponsored any maga/AF type bills when he was there. He has grown a lot as Governor, for sure, in the right direction.
And, He may be on board with most of it now. However, none of it came from him.
It is all from the mind, courage, and connection to the people by Trump.
A lot can happen between now and 2024, but if Trump wants the nomination it is likely going to be his.
DeSantis is a “Deep State” diversion to wedge between Trumps MAGA. Who does anyone know more experienced and competent than Trump to be President of the United States? Name one?
This 👆👆
DeSantis resume is pure deepstate sleeper (no different than a John Kerry, Cotton, etc.):
“He graduated from Yale University and Harvard Law School. DeSantis joined the United States Navy in 2004, where he was promoted to lieutenant before serving as an advisor to SEAL Team One and being deployed to Iraq in 2007.”
so did he not actually go through the full real seal boot camp training and ojt?
Nope – not a SEAL he was their lawyer:
“In 2007, DeSantis reported to the Naval Special Warfare Command Group in Coronado, California, where he was assigned to SEAL Team One and deployed to Iraq with the troop surge as the Legal Advisor to the SEAL Commander, Special Operations Task Force-West in Fallujah.”
Yale and Harvard degrees should be an automatic disqualifier for any political office, down to the dog catcher.
Lord knows we’ve had enough of them already in office, past and present.
Nor “real Yalie.”
He went on a baseball scholarship.
I worry that Desantis if text book controlled opposition. He’s been green lit to do the things he’s doing. Which is why he hasn’t been charged with any fake crimes like the feds would normally do.
I remember exactly what you do. Guy was a politician when PDJT was in office. Didn’t do much by way of MAGA. Sure he stuck his neck out on a few things, and he could have been letting the dust settle. I just don’t know. But I do know pdjt puts together a hell of economic team and he sure lives America and tries to defend our borders. Right know Desantis could just be taking his marching orders from bushies for all we know. A la Ted Cruz. If everyone remembers, he was supposed to be Teflon.
The first half of the article is a massive smack-down on stupid republicans!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bravo!
Trump is a one-in-a-lifetime figure, just like Reagan was.
If you think you can plug-n-play DeSantis in place of Trump, well, then you are stupid.
Did Bannon ever apologize for being the White House leaker? Fat prick.
Steven Bannon was only in the White House about 6 months.
He exited in August 2017.Sorry ari, but he was/is a good guy.
I really don’t like those stupid earlobe plugs.
Bannon was redeployed, imho.
The dust up was kayfabe.
If Bannon wasn’t on the same team as Navarro and Stone – and effective at his role – he would not have been indicted and convicted in a J6 show trial.
Sometimes the best way to judge who is authentic is by who gets persecuted (Assange, Flynn). Not a 1 to 1 match, but a fairly good indicator.
Personnel is Policy. The USGovt is a giant machine with 2 million sentient parts. Taking control of that morass is a big job.
It was staff/Personnel undermining Trump that blunted his efforts.
This time around, Trump won’t be trusting or naive. He needs a Plan to fire all the DOJ attys first, give every SES an Orders Briefing with objectives and fire them if they don’t achieve them in 30 days. He can reassign recalcitrant people to Nome Alaska effective immediately. He can implement “Transfer of Function” for USDA to Iowa, DoEd to Wyoming, DoE to Oak Ridge TN, etc, as deemed most cost effective, during which some 50% will quit rather than move, simplifying the problem.
Firing the head of OPM, every Officer above O5 who isn’t onboard, is a good start. Appoint “Acting” heads of agencies and departments on 120 day rotating schedules till hell freezes over or he gets who he wants.
Sure it is wasteful, but so is what is happening now. At least thin the herd. And take total control.
It is past time to clean the Augean Stables. Hercules did it, and so can Trump.
Boy did that ever need to be said! Makes what he accomplished even more miraculous.
We and the rest of the world were granted a merciful reprieve from the Masters Of The Universe™.
Now the time for choosing is at hand. I choose a dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery.
Yes, it is amazing to me how quickly some of his supporters forget the horrific atmosphere that Trump was working in starting the day he rode down the escalator, including from his OWN Party! Yet, he STILL managed to fight the Swamp and make many, many major accomplishments.
Sundance’s target after this article…..
“There is only one Great MAGA King.”
Absolutely Sundance! Great Article and I wholeheartedly agree!!!!
Excellent, excellent article.
Or as Popeye the Sailor said, “It is always more difficult to sail upstream with the wind against you than to sail downstream with the wind behind your back”.
President Trump just began speaking right now!
I’m voting Trump. That’s it.
It must be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to plan, more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to manage than a new system. For the initiator has the enmity of all who would profit by the preservation of the old institution, and merely lukewarm defenders in those who gain by the new ones.”
——————————
Someone needs to ask why are the World Economic Forum (WEF) leaders taking this all too calmly, If things like elections were on the up and up they should be in a state of terror. Think about it, more than anyone else in their own country they must realize that losing this next election will likely mean their own death based on what has been done, too their own citizens.
They must have been promised no repercussions for them. How could they have made this promise and make them believe it. Has the next election in the U.S. been FIXED, already! How could they have accomplished, this so soon?

Please come back for more updates on this story.
Hat tip Brian Lupo

Replace * with :
Going to be VERY interesting in a week to see how close the “test” numbers were to the actual results…bet they are scrambling right about now to reprogram the computers so that the “final” tally will be a lot closer and thus more “believable”!
Unreal.
Wow! Just a bigger version of Fox News calling AZ for Biden while Trump was winning! This is why I hate the Republican Party with much white hot hate these days!
I get pissed off too about the “cabinet pick” bullshit. DT wasn’t getting anyone thru that gauntlet without consent from the Swamp. Trump’s biggest weakness was his faith in humanity. He thought if he did a good job and the World (yes the World) was winning that people in power would drop their preconceived notions and come together. It’s a worthy endeavor but a mistake nonetheless.
A man who professes goodness in all things will come to ruin among so many who are not good.
And btw that includes Pompeo. Perhaps the only ones that made it were Grenell, Ratliff, and Mulvaney.
Ratcliff was a weak and ineffective loser.
Mulvaney has been trashing Trump since he left – he’s a rat
have to disagree in part. can the BAD appointments he DID make be explained away by the resistance to him from within – barr, wray, esper, milley, etc? if they were the result of bad counsel, wasn’t it the team that he assembled that provided that counsel? recognizing there is a monumental task ahead should not prevent acknowledging the unforced errors of the past. when he comes up with a headscratcher like oz for pennsylvania, one wonders, are the faults that led to those errors being addressed? trump was and is good for the USA, but the task is so daunting, it will need the very top of his game, and of those that comprise the inner circle.
You totally missed the point.
enlighten me
That would be a waste of time, as you really do not want to be
enlightened.
sticks and stones is what you’ve got?
Thank you, Sundance!! I’ve been trying to make the same points in a less articulate and indepth way! I scream at my computer screen everytime I hear or see someone (Cernovich, Schlichter, eg) faulting President Trump for his cabinet and personnel choices. I cannot imagine what it was like for him! But the majority of us are still behind him, and we will fight on even harder than before. I was heartened to see the young people at TPSAS select him as the 2024 candidate in their poll!
Cernovich, Schlichter, et. al. either are dishonest or willfully ignorant of how DC works. It could legitimately be either for Cernovich. I’m pretty sure Schlichter knows and is spinning a narrative – he wasn’t always pro-Trump and works for the Con Inc. Town Hall.
I honestly believe that most Americans are completely clueless about how DC works – if they knew we’d have had people descending on DC from all over the country demanding change.
DC is completely corrupt and soulless from the mail clerk at USDA or any other fed agency up to the President. Socialize in DC and you will find that people are concerned with what people do and who they know because everyone is either a network opportunity or a means to affirm your own status and politics.
I know someone who created a non-profit so their teenage kids could put their work for it on their college applications and pad their resumes.
I know someone who changed his church and denomination and drove 25 miles every Sunday because a particular church was good for his career advancement because important politically connected people went there.
Right after January 6, employees (way more than one) at my large contractor employer, asked if the company was going to get clearances pulled and fire any staff that may have voted for Trump as they were a danger to other staff and the country. They felt perfectly comfortable expressing this to our senior management and no one questioned the sentiment.
All trump was ever going to do was open eyes.
He did that in spades…
Sadly, as has been said before, we ain’t voting our way out of this mess.
I agree and that is why I expect eventual military intervention.
Sundance,
Your sarcasm dripping with verbal venom regarding POTUS Trump’s failure to perform against the Swamp is a breath of fresh air and a validation of the almost insurmountable effort to destroy the SWAMP. But DESTROY WE MUST and no one has the ability to do that better than King MAGA with the support of the millions of the ULTRA MAGA supporters.
Finally your reminder of the realities of Main Street vs. Wall Street is an important economic reality none of us can ever afford to ignore.
You have educated me over the years and have given me hope…..
God Bless You SUNDANCE!
Someone has been triggered.
Bravo sir. You have outdone yourself again.
Thank you for again reminding us that Truth Has No Agenda.
before: we just want to be left alone
after: we are going to have to get involved so we can be left alone.
revolution, stage 3 (awareness) crosses over to stage 4 (transfer of power).
we will do it politically, the culturally, then in the media, then in the courts.
we WILL RESTORE this nation’s government and central state.
failure is not an option.
the revolution continues.
don’t blink, you will miss the show.
God Bless Amercia
PDJT is the undisputed MAGA king, and assuming he runs in 2024 there are no other candidates that matter.
But Team MAGA needs a bench. Who else can be trusted? No one can live up to Trump, but is there no one else on the national scene whose basic instincts are MAGA?
You don’t have to be never Trump to be looking to 2028 and beyond. I wouldn’t rule out a deep state assassination if PDJT starts looking like he’s winning. We gotta know who else is on the team, even if they’re benchwarmers right now.
As far as I am concerned DeSantis is next on the bench after him, not sure.
…There is only one Great MAGA King.
Boy, Howdy! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Economically trump did well, I get your point . For the record , I was glad he fired ,Sessions,mad dog, and especially Bolton . They never should have been hired .
But what about operation warp speed Sundance ?
And the magna crowd has booed him at rallys promoting it .
He definitely did a lot of beneficial things for this country .
Thank YOU, Sundance! Unfortunately, we’ll see a number of folks skip right over what you succinctly laid out & commence with their usual BS.
Thank you!
Lovely article about PDJT!
My ears blow smoke, anytime someone says anything against this man!
Sadly, I have to admit that in 2016 Mike Pence had me completely fooled. I thought he was the epitome of a true and Christian conservative. Embarrassed now to even mention it.
He always gave off the phony vibes of a televangelist to me. The “It’s my great honor and privilege” thing he always droned and frankly the awful faces his wife used to make at the Trump family members whenever she was in the same room as them – she loathed them and didn’t even try to hide it.
I feel like this article is troll bait.
Trump wasn’t effective. If he gets another at-bat, he better have a plan for exactly this.
The President doesn’t answer to his staff, period.
He didn’t understand Sovereign power.
If he can’t wield that power effectively in 2.0, then there is no positive outcome.
It’s possible he isn’t the man for the job, but he’s still the leader we have and I still support him.
As long as he has a plan.
Also, FJB!
Yeah, you “still support him.” You just oooooooze support.
You have to realize that he was playing the long game, the same way the Enemy did for over 70 years and at least 3 generations. The harm done was NEVER fixable in 4 years.
President Trump laid out the basic solution in his 2016 speeches: Return power to the people.
How effective would it have been to return power to a sleeping populace that had zero understanding, really, of how an open air prison in a totalitarian state has been erected bit by bit to enslave us all, using gaslighting and deliberate trauma to move us down the path like cattle herded to the slaughterhouse using blind turns so we could not perceive the destination? A wage slave mindset populace that had no real insight into the true loyalties and real goals of the psychopaths at and behind the World Economic Forum, and absolutely no insight into all of the psyop “nudge” manipulations to which we have been subjected?
I am reminded of Thomas Jefferson’s take on freeing the slave population of the South: You could not just presto chango free a traumatized illiterate class of people who had been taught a slave mentality and expect those people to magically turn into middle class citizens. You had to transition the group from a slave experience and a slave mindset or you would find your country with a permanent subclass for generations (he wasn’t wrong)
President Trump’s role was to stall the WEF timeline, panic the Enemy, shine a light on all the monsters so we could see them clearly, and (he said it himself) simply survive. So that We the People could wake up and so that heros could rise, and so that we could once again become a people morally fit to wield power.
He did do all of that.
This is the long haul now. Fixing the current state of affairs is the work of decades. Buckle up, and buckle in. It is about to get extremely bumpy, and after that we are all of us going to need to gird up our loins and be prepared to do the hard work of restoring faith, family, and economic and political freedoms.
One of the flaws of Americans and especially of this modern age is the desire to “return to normal” and the expectations of instant gratification getting there.
Been there, done that. Lesson learned. “Done in 30” – expected 30 days, got 30 months.
Done in 4 years? Ain’t gonna happen.
It is going to be the work of a lifetime.
Gosh, with backhanded support like yours I am confident Trump will sleep better at night.
Great article and reminds me again why I come to read what you have to say. Trump has learned and won’t make the mistakes again
agree….The Great MAGA must reign again and use his trademark phrase for the first time….”You’re fired”
Sundance, the critical disdain for Governor DeSantis is disturbing. If you consider him not ready, so be it to your opinion. I believe he stands a better chance to be elected, and can govern if he became President.
However, the picture you paint is less about what DeSantis can’t do, than it is a broad pronouncement on the impossible task to change this lost and broken system. I get some of your hall pass for President Trump, who granted was the absolute disrupter of a corrupted and continuous system that is destroying our nation. But that system ran total interference, disrupting and impeding DJT’s efforts, then ultimately cheating him out of reelection.
What makes us think anyone is capable of changing this overwhelming power structure? How does President Trump, if elected in 24, do it differently and without even more massive resistance?
It will take an overwhelming surge of real MAGA candidates to massively change this evil system. So many that the Congress and Senate can never lose a vote; so many that leadership is changed at every level; so many that the RINO rats either resign or resign themselves to supporting the cause.
I wish I could see that happening…but I don’t. Only a massive shake up could create that, such as a massive reveal of how the government has betrayed everyone coupled with a civil uprising. The nation might not survive it.
So I choose to retain a small amount of hope, while living my best life (per your previous recommendation). The Matrix seems too strong to break, but perhaps there are one or two who can lead a final charge against it. DeSantis and Trump appear to be our only real options.
Sounds to me like SD just described a government no one in the WH can do much about. Trump or Desantis.
Please reread this and tell us all what you meant,trying to convey, I believe you did not fully comprehend the point of what Sundance was saying,
“Sundance, the critical disdain for Governor DeSantis is disturbing. If you consider him not ready, so be it to your opinion. I believe he stands a better chance to be elected, and can govern if he became President.
However, the picture you paint is less about what DeSantis can’t do, than it is a broad pronouncement on the impossible task to change this lost and broken system.

But that system ran total interference, disrupting and impeding DJT’s efforts, then ultimately cheating him out of reelection.”
DanQ agree that Sundance was posting to the enormity of this massive system, where it is today, and how much MORE difficult it would be to actually change. Hence my points about the requirement to have EXTREME MAJORITIES OF MAGA in both houses along with a MAGA President. The odds of that, even now given the extremes of the leftist cabal, are long.
Trump alone will have an even harder time making changes than the last time. All the knives are out for him, no hiding the blackjacks on either side of the aisle. As a result I predict he will be tried and convicted on charges before he can run for the presidency. The sham committee is setting it up now. All timed for maximum effect. And the RINOS approve.
I read this particular column and cringe as I too felt that Trump had a bad BS meter in many of his appointments. I admit that it’s impossible to hire so many people so fast and assure they have very little guile. I do think he will use the massive landslide he will get in 2024 to roll many of the RINO persuasion to get on board. That is if we can get free and fair elections from the work of Jovan H Pulitzer and Patrick Byrne and Mike Lindell.
