I have written and deleted a thousand words, repeatedly, in an effort to encapsulate what this moment means to me, and perhaps to others. However, when you boil the essence of the thing down to its important part, you are left with a question: Which American politician loves this country more than Donald John Trump?
The honest answer is ‘no one’.
There’s not a force of man or nature as strong in its devotion to a mission, as Donald Trump is to this nation. That’s the core, the heart, the genuine essence of the thing, that separates President Trump from all others. Within that love of country, is a strength of determination that is almost uncanny to witness; and from that love of country an authenticity emanates that is impossible to duplicate.
Donald J Trump is, quite simply, unapologetically American – and tens of millions just love him for it.
Tonight, with his family by his side, President Donald Trump announced his intention to seek the GOP nomination in 2024 and run for President of the United States.
.
Yes, I don’t give a flying flip what any detractor of this nation might try to say, Donald Trump is exactly what we need.
Many people are exhausted from the battle to save this republic. Many people are frustrated and despondent from the scale of the effort it takes to push back against the metastatic corruption that has infected our entire body politic. Even more people are sick and tired of having to constantly look behind the duplicitous motives and conniving schemes of the professional political class who falsely claim to represent our interests. For all of those people Trump kneels and says, ‘get on my back and rest for a moment’.
We don’t have to question his intentions; we do not have to doubt his motives; we do not have to worry about his goal with the America-First agenda. We know when Trump succeeds, our lives and the lives of our family improves. Period.
Now, contrast that feeling of deep assurance and Main Street economic stability against the reality of a current, conniving, self-interested Wall Street political class as the reference, and ask yourself what is that feeling of assurance worth? It’s priceless.
You see, back in 2015 when Donald Trump first announced his intention to run for the presidency the following year, the assembly on these pages had spent years fighting against the corrupt republican political establishment while most just strolled by oblivious to it. We assembled as The Last Refuge, and we immediately spotted the possibility Donald J Trump represented.
One of the first 2015 responses about Trump I shared to a friend who didn’t follow politics closely but was essentially and ally in outlook, was that Donald Trump could show up to the first GOP debate in 5″ heels and a Carmen Miranda hat and start dancing on Jeb Bush’s podium, and Trump would earn my vote.
I felt that way because I could see the cancerous rot that was destroying the working class and simultaneously infecting the Republican party.
Severe measures would be needed to counteract this Machiavellian political construct in DC that was only getting worse. We needed a major disruption and Donald Trump was ideal for that role.
As I look at the 2024 landscape, what I see different is what I see better. Just about everyone now sees the level of corruption that exists in the apparatus of government, thanks to President Trump’s first term in office.
Additionally, President Trump purged the conniving DeceptiCons, the duplicitous Republicans who existed to maintain the UniParty, by forcing the GOPe liars to expose themselves in his opposition. No longer is a conversation needed to convince people that most politicians are part of one DC UniParty apparatus. Two wings of the same corrupt vulture feeding on the carcass of our republic. Everyone can see that now, thanks to Donald Trump.
Despite their refusal to accept reality, the Bush, Cheney, McConnell, McCain, Romney Republican Party is gone. Donald Trump destroyed it. The Republican Party will never again be the Bush-Romney Republican Party. Donald Trump opened the door, and the working-class has moved in to take control. The Republican party is not going back to the Bush/Romney outlook, regardless of how much Mitch McConnell tries to scheme its return.
We need a Big Ugly wrecking ball to unseat the corrupt power structures that Trump alone made visible. There is no other person in this era of our nation’s history with the capacity to do that. Only Donald J Trump has the energy and fortitude to carry out this fight.
President Trump is the people’s response to The Great Reset by saying, “like hell you will.”
I would not miss this opportunity for anything.
I’m all in.

While I am all in as well, I just don’t see how this ends in our favor.
See AZ.
Does not mean we don’t try.

@KariLake
is now just .6 and 17k votes behind Hobbs, with 98.5% reporting. If she gets to .5, then a recount occurs
There is a story told throughout the U. S. Marines about the Chosin Reservoir in Korea and a Marine Corps Colonel Chesty Puller.
The Marines were outnumbered and struggling with the intense cold and lack of supplies.
When asked by headquarters to provide a situational report, Colonel Puller replied; “The enemy is on our right and on our left. They are in front of us and to our rear. They can’t get away this time.”
Attitude is the biggest part in the coming fight.
Don’t let the bastards get you down.
My father was a member of the Chosin Few. He was put in for the Navy Cross and Puller himself denied it. My fathers commanding officer went toe to toe with Puller arguing that if he didn’t have decency to reward his men for their commitment to him, the least he could do was offer a full retirement.
I have three Purple Hearts and a Silver Star that were awarded to my father. I loved , respected, and will honor him till the day I die. He was the hero I measure all others against.
As much as it pains me to say this, it’s a blessing he is gone now. This is just too much. I apologize for being off topic…..The mention of Puller always brings up emotions for me.
And when I get to Heaven, Saint Peter I will tell, “Another Marine reporting sir! I served my time in hell.”
I thank you for you Dad’s service to his/our great nation.
Always a leatherneck.
Dear God,
I love marines, one in particular. They give their all with strength, honor and integrity They deserve to be held in your loving arms forever.
Many thanks to all of you who served.
Understand. We need to have both sides of any story to make an informed decision. You’re father is my hero too.
Your father and my father are my heros too – he was a Marine from 1940 to 1946 – Guadacanal, Solomon Islands, Tarawa . . . . .
wow————-I served the CORPS from fall of 1951—–to fall of 1959
Never heard a bad word about “CHESTY PULLER” . He is apart of MARINE CORPS HISTORY.
But I never was in the 1st division!
So true. “Attitude is the biggest part in the coming fight.” We all must match President Trump’s love of country, and we all must pray diligently without ceasing.
AMEN! And no one knows this better than President TRUMP, who studied at the hands of Norman Vincent Peale.
There is a book discussing Peale’s philosophy and Trump. “Dark Star Rising: Magick and Power in the Age of Trump” by Gary Lachman. It also discusses chaos theory. Trump is a Gemini, he was born for chaos. It is not a heart-gladdening message. —I don’t see how Trump is going to change anything still working in a corrupt system, and a totally corrupt government. How will he get elected if the election fraud is not addressed?
The question we all need to be asking is “What am I going to do to help address it?”
President Trump called this Our Campaign for a reason. We can’t just sit by and hope others fix it.
My friend and I became election judges for the last election and will be so again in 2024. I’m joining a group looking to clean up the voter roles precinct by precinct like what worked to short circuit the Dem’s efforts in Wisconsin.
These things will only add up to a few hours a week over the next two years, but will make a real difference in reducing the Dem’s ability to cheat in my area.
Is the freedom of yourself and your family and loved ones worth an hour or two a week of your time?
“…people are tired of having to constantly look behind the duplicitous motives and conniving schemes of the professional political class, and for those people Trump kneels and says, ‘get on my back and rest for a moment’…”
Love DJT also but how does he win without AZ and Pennsylvania just for starters. Republicans need to go for ballots as well as Democrats. We will end up with 600 million ballots out of a country of 300 million.
NO more ballot harvesting. It must stop, otherwise, all future elections will by tainted. Look at the Hew Hampshire race for Maggie Hassen. Their was a small communituy of about 907 people, yet they turned out 0ver 1,000 votes. This happened many times in the 2020 race in Michigan and Pennsylvania. You cannot have more votes than eleigible voters, PERIOD.
If people do some digging, maybe the lightbulb will finally come on.
OR we jump in and do all the legal ballot harvesting we can. That is another way to go and there is nothing to stop us.
It’s not over yet…
As long as mail
-in ballots and drop boxes are seemingly permanent fixtures in key battleground states, our chances are slim to none.
As I understand it, most of these state election changes were never passed by state legislatures, but rather by executive orders, making none of it legal.
Are there any active lawsuits against these states? Didn’t the Supreme Traitors rule that these illegal emergency election changes were valid?
When you look back at world history, do you see any examples were highly corrupt regimes have been toppled? Did you learn about the Civil Rights Movement in our own recent past?
Why would you need to feel hopeless when Trump got more legitimate votes than any candidate in American History…?
I’ve seen many bad regimes toppled.
I can’t recall one that voted it’s way out.
Gandhi had the majority on his side + managed to defeat a colonial empire by forcing them to expose the treachery of their position.
All the states need to get rid of mail in voting!
Made in China voting machines must be destroyed!
Remember Todd Beamer: “Let’s roll!”
Give it your all.
There’s a full court press underway to separate President Trump from his supporters and the usual suspects are all on the same page.
“It’s time to move on from Trump” and on and on.
Rush warned us about that.
The reality is, there is nobody else but Trump to lead this country out of the rubble.
Even DeSantis is weak by comparison.
MAGA
My wish is that DJT tones down his theatrics a couple of notches. I am behind him and believe he was the best POTUS since Reagan, but he needs to appeal to a wider range of the populace and that starts, I believe, with being more factual than facetious. Do what the Dems do; tell people what they want to hear and then do almost the polar opposite once in office. It will be difficult based on his history, but it is doable.
Trump said last night, wait till the next two years. You think its bad now, you have not seen anything. 71% of the country thinks we are going in the wrong direction. In 2024 it will be 85%, only the hard core progressives will be on board with the ruin. Trump will get over 100 million votes. He might even get 125 million.
That comment was my key takeaway.
We’re in for a bumpy 2 years.
How many of us will even be left to vote after two more years of what the evil regime has in store for us.
I have to disagree with you about Trump’s “rhetoric”.
Trump was elected the first time bc he was willing to come out and say the things that everyday Americans have suspected for years. He had the voice of the American people.
In 2020, the election was stolen – plain & simple.
The worst thing Trump can do at this point is to lose touch with #WeThePeople and make this campaign about his grudge. He needs to strike “I”, “my”, & “me” from his vocabulary and get back in touch with us.
#WeThePeople are pissed off at the Uniparty and our corrupt election system. It’s time for us to get involved in our local Electoral Boards and push for paper ballots and smaller precincts, then plan to staff those precincts on election day 2024.
I agree, well stated. Our
Some Americans eyes were opened after the 2020 steal, however, for two years, nothing happend to change things and we got the same results in 2022. We have to get back to true elections, where the steal can be avoided. As Sundance said, they are sending ballots to anyone they can find, then harvesting the votes. If that can’t be rectified, 2024 will be like ’20 and ’22.
The RINO’s in charge do not care, so they are not about to do anything to help Trump. Look at the 22 races, they intentionally sent no help to Trump candidates. It is a swamp.
So we need to get in there and harvest all the legal ballots we can for our side.
I became a Trump supporter, not because of his tweets but because of one press conference.
There was a group of former generals that were casting their support behind Trump. The press wouldn’t cover it. Trump called a press conference to talk about Obama’s birth certificate. For the majority of the press conference Trump had the generals come out and speak, at the very end of the conference Trump spoke about the birth certificate “Yeah, I believe it’s real”.
His canniness played the press, he ended the birther attacks and allowed his generals to get some press time. He kicked the lefty presses ass that day and earned my support.
He received more votes than any presidential candidate in history. And you think he needs to appeal to more people? A
The reason Trump beat Hillary in 2016, he exceeded the expected algorithm getting 60+ million votes. They expwcted him to get 40+ million. In 2020, he got over 75 million votes, but they (uniparty), had a contingency plan of paper votes showing up to be counted for weeks after election night to make up the differences.
It is not a coincidence the 5 main swing states all stopped counting votes at the same time on election night in 2020. They all stopped counting when the state of Florida was called for Trump around 11pm.
I love Trumps theatrics!
it keeps his enemies distracted and provides daily entertainment to the American people.
Would you rather have some one “presidential” such as the likes of George Bush?
We go to war with the army we have. We need to let Trump be Trump.
some say PDJT is “over the top” or “hyperbolic”…..generally, those people prefer the lies of the DS and modern left to soothe their sensibilities rather than the cold hard truth……it has taken us DECADES of complacency and neglect to get to this point so the task ahead is not an easy one but if the concept of a nation that has its people as the ruling power is a noble one then it is worth the effort……..PDJT can tend to exaggerate some of the circumstances of a situation to further highlight it to those in deep slumber but I would rather that than a sharp slap across their face to wake them up
we just witnessed not only the continuing election manipulation of the DS but many of our fellow citizens are indeed still in a trance as to the truth of the situation this once great country finds itself in….drastic times often call for drastic measures
DeSantis is on the other team.
Look at his doners, most of them are Never Trumpers, and people who oppose the Populist votes.
Trump was genuine, as he wasn’t be holden to lobbyists or donors. He was for the American people.
… move on from Trump… Only the *sheeple* pay attention to such nonsense! DJT 2024 #MAGA.
Oh yea, FJB and his evil crew!!!
“It’s time to move on from Trump”
… I hear many people say this… it’s working to an extent.
Then it’s up to us to counter them. Sheeple are discouraged by and weary of the ENEmedia gaslighting, which now goes into overdrive.
Not everyone has the backbone of a true Patriot.
We can give piggy back rides with the best of them!
GIDDY YAP!
Then it is your job to fix them introduce them to hard core reality
I don’t want some slick talker. I can not tolerate politicians. A president who loves my country and all the people and did not sell their soul is truly unbelievable. Save our Republic
I want to be all in. I need to be all in. This fight is going to be even worse then the first time. Friends and family I no longer have a relationship with as a result of my pushing for this man.
I think it’s best if I disengage for awhile. This is going to be the big ugly on steroids and I need to ensure my batteries are recharged for this fight.
I lost 2 sisters over this man! I still stand with him! With God, all things are possible!!! We need our Deity back our life! DJT is our vehicle to obtain that result. That breath of fresh air is sooooo refreshing!
I’ll be there when it matters. A promise to my fellow Americans and my country.
I’ve taken Sundance’s advice. I’ve been “living my best life” and sharing my blessings with others.
Thankfully, they don’t stir the pot around me. When people find a sanctuary from all the outside drama, they’re usually so relieved that they hop off the crazy train and melt right into it.
My home is open to friends, family and the occasional straggler. Since the plandemic, I’ve added a sick bay. No one has ever been turned away, not even my brother who went into hiding for 18 months, and now wears two masks whenever he ventures out.
My point is, people gravitate toward those who provide rest for the weary. The ENEmedia does anything BUT that. I don’t listen to any of it, and they yearn to be calmer, like me.
If talk turns political, I will fondly recount my days as an early Trump supporter, and how exciting it is to find a true American Patriot who is willing to take those slings and arrows for us. I can’t contain my joy and gratitude for that man!
Teach by example. Listen. Offer advice only when asked, and we will win over many converts in the grueling months ahead.
Life will get worse for all of us before it gets better. The ENEmedia will only push us farther toward that abyss.
🙏🏻 🙏🏻
My hoplessly liberal sister once told me she would NEVER vote for Trump.
Now, she admits the 2020 election was stolen and that Trump was/is treated unfairly.
Truth is like a light. Some will only see when they open their eyes.
Don’t give up.
Really, what choice do we have??
“I felt that way because I could see the cancerous rot that was destroying the working class and simultaneously infecting the Republican party.”
Same here Sundance and why I will never again vote for a GOPe candidate…you must be America First and not ashamed to say it.
No more ‘kicking the can down the road’ and voting for the party candidate, just to give the corrupt power cabal another seat at the table.
#I’mAllIn
It doesn’t work like that. Donald Trump will need a republican house and senate.
Yeah I here ya Rinos who cares. Well rinos weren’t able to politically survive removing Trump from office with impeachment if the democrats had had both houses Trump would not have survived 30 days.
I am tired of the abuse and the shell game too but I will not be a tool of Trump’s demise.
I tire of fighting this same fight but it has to be done.
Spend your GOPe hatred on the primary that is the only place you can effect the change you want not voting for an R is a vote for the Democrat.
Let’s put it this way my most hated R at this point is a toss up between Mitch and Mittens. I would vote the Mitch Mittens ticket before i would vote the Biden Harris ticket.
We are about to see what a real political, cultural, and societal battle looks like. Count me in for this fight.
Trump/Lake ’24.
Emerald Robinson weighs in….
“My rule of thumb is simple: if you’re a Trump-aligned Republican and your election results were not released within 24 hours of Election Day, then you’re toast.
The entire point of “slow-rolling” vote-counting is that it gives the cheaters the necessary time to count how many ballots they need to beat the Republican candidate and then to manufacture those ballots — or to disappear the necessary number of GOP ballots by “abjudication.”
Didn’t the GOP learn any of these lessons from the 2020 election? Of course not.”
(because the GOP didn’t want a free and fair election.)

THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS!!!!!
Another great woman- Dr. Naomi Wolf- also nails it in this article.
Her point is- most of what we are seeing is an illusion when it comes to elections.
“This is the eve after a broken election, as broken machines count broken vote tallies, and as broken media “calls” outcomes.
Everyone in legacy media is waiting “for AP to call the outcome,” which is sadly hilarious, given that AP has a Memorandum of Understanding that it won’t disclose fully to our Congress, with the news agency Xinhua, the CCP’s chief propaganda arm.
Treasonous media call a treasonous election process. [https://blog.ap.org/announcements/ap-response-to-questions-about-recent-xinhua-meeting]

God and the devil, Good and evil, Trump and the Left. Trump will bring what is good and true to this country, the Democrats have brought corruption, evil and lies.
I was a cold war warrior in the 82nd Airborne with Ronny Reagan as Commander in Chief. We studied Russian language, enemy armor, aircraft playing cards and how to dig a defensive position because our mission was to fly to the Fulda Gap and jump; dig in and try to slow down the Russian horde as it advanced into Europe. Reagan collapsed the USSR economy with a Psyop called Star Wars. Life was good. Then Slick Willy took over and cut the military budget. As a platoon sergeant in the 82nd, the DODs force projection asset, the tip of the spear, my M16 was unusable because we had no replacement parts and I had to give up mine to Joe, the real shooters. Thanks Bill. I could go on about that son of a bitch and his wife but no. I retire six months before 9-11 and look around and the enemy was already here. I’ve been broken hearted until the Donald walked down that staircase. And watching peaceful protests in the Capitol on J6 I was jumping up and down fist pumping. And the sneaky bastards turned it around. Ok Sundance, thanks for the perspective. Love all you patriots out there. How do I donate.
Thank you for your service Steve.
Thank you for your *service*. GrandSIL in 82nd, and we are so fortunate only 1 hr away to Ft Bragg! They just blessed me with a Great Grandson – Life is good!! DJT 2024 # MAGA!
You should post more often. You have very inspiring outlooks . Thank You.
Thank you brother J6 was awesome. History will remember it differently then how it is being portrayed today.
Thank you, Steve. You have already donated so much but if you are questioning how to donate to CTH, upper right hand corner donate button.
We absolutely need PDJT to be a wrecking ball, to break The Swamp. Then De Santis can have his 8 years to clean up and rebuild.
But: We The People also need to push for an Article V Convention of States. The Federal government needs to be de-funded and cut back to its Constitutionally-mandated scope and size.
I’d love to revisit the DeSantis question in 8 years or so.
I like what he’s done in Florida, but his sketchy donors and complete silence during the Trump raid leave me thinking that he is another duplicitous, scheming snake, just better disguised this time
So you want to destroy the swamp allowing Ron Griffin Desantis to rebuilt it in his image?
“Meet the new boss….same as the old boss”
Name one thing Desantis has done to promote America First?
I fought very hard to get a COS passed in my state. At this point in time, it’s too late. It will take another 7-10 years MINIMUM. Far better to throw our efforts into digging up the fraud in our own precincts – it’s there. A COS will be an excellent blueprint by which to rebuild.
And apparently you’ve not been reading Sundance’s articles about DeSantis. The RNC Club already has their claws sunk in deep. In 2019, he hired “Eric Voting Systems,” a Soros-owned company.
Richard Barris said DeSantis has already lied about his RNC “affiliations” once – and Barris LIKES DeSantis.
What you’re seeing is not what you’ll get with DeSantis. Please review Sundance’s articles.
You do not have to sign in to read all this – just click “read anyway.”

DeSantis ran headlong into that low energy Jeb! (Please clap) Big Club that we ain’t ever gonna be in. Globalists didn’t funnel 200 million into Ronbo’s campaign to make America great again, that’s for sure.
We’ll need someone else for 2028.
FIGHTING FOR YOUR COUNTRY, WHAT’S IT REALLY MEAN?
https://www.americanheritage.com/battle-athens#6
Since the Civil War, political offices in McMinn County had gone to the Republicans, but in the 1930s Tennessee began to fall under the control of Democratic bosses. To the west, in Shelby County, E.H. Crump, the Memphis mayor who had been ousted during his term for failing to enforce Prohibition, fathered what would become the state’s most powerful political machine.
Crump eventually controlled most of Tennessee along with the governor’s office and a United States senator. In eastern Tennessee local and regional machines developed, which, lacking the sophistication and power of a Crump, relied on intimidation and violence to control their constituents.
At last the veterans chose to use the most basic right of the democracy for which they had gone to war: the right to vote. In the early months of 1946 they decided in secret meetings to field a slate of their own candidates for the August elections. In May they formed a nonpartisan political party.
August 1, 1946: Election Day found voters lined up early in the largest turnout in local history. Joining them were some three hundred of Sheriff Mansfield’s special deputies. Trouble began early. At 9:30 A.M. Walter Ellis, a legally appointed GI representative at the first precinct in the courthouse, was arrested and jailed for protesting irregularities.
Bill White, who had fought in the Pacific while still in his teens and come home an ex-sergeant, had gotten angrier as the day wore on. At two in the afternoon he had harangued the group of veterans in the Essankay, saying:
“You call yourselves GIs—you go over there and fight for three and four years—you come back and you let a bunch of draft dodgers who stayed here where it was safe, and you were making it safe for them, push you around. … If you people don’t stop this, and NOW IS THE TIME AND PLACE, you people wouldn’t make a pimple on a fighting GI’s ass. Go and get the guns…”
In the early evening White went to get the guns himself. He sent two GIs to get a truck and, with a few other veterans, perhaps a dozen, he headed for the National Guard armory. There, he said in a 1969 interview, he “broke down the armory doors and took all the rifles, two Thompson sub-machine guns, and all the ammunition we could carry, loaded it up in the two-ton truck and went back to GI headquarters and passed out seventy high-powered rifles and two bandoleers of ammunition with each one.”
By 9:00 P.M. Paul Cantrell, Pat Mansfield, State Rep. George Woods, who was also a member of the election commission, and about fifty deputies were locked inside the jail and going through the ballot boxes. The presence of Mansfield and Woods meant that a majority of the election commission was on hand, so the tallies could be CERTIFIED AND VALIDATED ON THE SPOT. More deputies were still barricaded in the courthouse, but along the streets none were to be seen. If the Cantrell forces had been a bit more wary, they might have spotted some shadows slipping up the embankment directly across the street from the jail.
Moments later the night exploded in automatic weapons fire punctuated by shotgun blasts. “I fired the first shot,” White claimed, “then everybody started shooting from our side.” A deputy ran for the jail. “I shot him; he wheeled and fell inside of the jail.” Bullets ricocheted up and down White Street. “I shot a second man; his leg flew out from under him, and he crawled under a car.” The veterans bombarded the jail for hours, but Cantrell and his accomplices, secure behind the red-brick walls, refused to surrender.
At 2:48 A.M. the first dynamite was tossed toward the jail; it landed under Boe Dunn’s cruiser, and the explosion flipped the vehicle over on its top, leaving its wheels spinning. Three more bundles of dynamite were thrown almost simultaneously; one landed on the jail porch roof, another under Mansfield’s car, and the third struck the jail wall. The explosions rattled windows throughout the town; leaves fell from the trees, debris scattered for blocks, and the jailhouse porch jumped off its foundation.
The deputies barricaded in the courthouse a block away rushed onto the balcony, eager to surrender. The jail’s defenders staggered from their ruined stronghold and handed the ballot boxes over to the veteran
On August 11, 1946, the five GIs elected to office in McMinn announced that they would return to the county all fees in excess of five thousand dollars. Elsewhere in Tennessee, E. H. Crump and his machine were finally on the way out, with the election of Gov. Gordon Browning and a young United States senator, Estes Kefauver.
That is the style but would not work nationwide. We need another plan….that is all I am saying.
Wow I was aware of this but the version I heard was sanitized thanks for reposting
I waited my whole life to vote for someone that was not a professional politician. I voted for Trump twice and will again in 2024. Drain The Swamp.
Me too. I remember that night after Clinton was beat and Trump walked onto the stage, President Elect of the United States.
I sat in front of my computer screen and pumped my fists in the air and then I cried. I had not cried in 50 years, but that night was different because I knew that the main evil was beat down for now and that this country had a chance. At that moment, I had no idea of the forces that were gathering to move against him. Now I’m wide awake with my head on a swivel and my situational awareness dial turned up all the way to max. I’m ready to give the swamp another historic beat down.
Mistake or not I voted Perot for the reason you state!
Now that you mention it, I believe I voted for Perot also! If everybody that said they voted for Ross Perot had actually voted for him, he would have been president.
What creates the most fear in those who seek to control, is when ordinary people in the face of seemingly overwhelming odds, do extraordinary things.
Be righteous and be courageous. It’s contagious.
If you need additional examples of that strategy in action, and the good it creates in this life, consider the apostles Paul and Matthew.
What does it matter if the voter fraud yet again is not dealt with?
I don’t see it being fixed because the people that have the power to change it are still in power and the only way to change it is to vote those people out of power which won’t happen because they make the rules that would take them out of power. Blatent Example,Katie HobbS overseeing her own election
It’s so frustrating and disheartening.
So all the speeches and rallies and talking will still come down to election night and if the rules aren’t followed or changed where they need to be changed and if the republican govenors are still against Trump, and why wouldn’t they be?, then where is the hope?
I wan’t to hope but to hope would mean paper ballots and i.d.’s period.
It’s so frustrating and disheartening
Katie Hobbs OFFENDS my sense of fairness.
President Trump alluded to the fact that we will experience a lot of pain in the next two years. Americans have no idea what we are in for. It is from that inflection point that we will address the fraudulent elections before 2024.
War, poverty, hunger and death have historically prompted the grazing sheeple to look up and take notice. And so.. they finally will..
I have tried three times in as many years to try to get a response from True the Vote to further engage with them, have taken their online training, but have never ever heard from them about getting involved at my State level to engage with like-minded folks to clean up rolls, work on removing the machines, and coordinating for overseeing balloting, tabulation and certification. Has anyone had better luck getting involved with them? Anyone know the secret sauce to get a response from them?
Todd21 – Unfortunately, no, devastating is this.

Apparently Gregg Philips is an FBI informant – I had been hearing this from more than 3 sources – George Webb has the receipt. The Testimony of he and Catherine. Both of whom say he is an FBI informant.
What appears to have happened is Catherine – who seems innocent in all this and a warrior – has been co-opted. It seems both a money making scheme and some kind of psyops.
Major Jeffrey Prather – who was DIA, DEA, worked informants and has huge experience – did not detect the deception and spoke at the Pit. So if he didn’t – and he is now saying it appears that Gregg is indeed an informant – there is no way regular folks like us could tell.
SO from this moment on – We must trust NO ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Until they are thoroughly vetted.
Sorry to have to share this. It is one more nail in our coffin if we don’t wake up to the enormous fraud that is all around us.
So CAUTION CAUTION CAUTION.
Great. More rot… rot, rot, rot…. Trust is such an elusive critter. Nevertheless, I think I’m going to try to organize like-minded folks to try to make a dent in our local election machine use. I haven’t seen any evidence in our results of issues (I’m in a bright red state), but like the eye of Sauron, it’s just a matter of time.
Organizing folks is a great first step!
Trouble is…..WHO IS TELLING THE TRUTH AND WHO ISN’T.
Are you sure this is fact or smear tactic to discredit the remarkable work of Engelbrecht & Phillips. Yes, there are rumors Phillips is an FBI informant and Phillips has flat out denied it. Both worked with the FBI thinking the FBI could be trusted with case against Konnech. Todd21 casts a big net for aid. I have gotten assistance from True the Vote.
Agreed. I should have stated earlier that I am planning to do a lot more reading before I condemn Greg. He’s done too much critical work over the years for me to think he’s an informant… but I’m open to the facts.
THAT’S MY QUESTION! Here in red Oklahoma, the fraud is rampant – amongst Republicans!
So difficult to find the people digging for evidence. We were doing that at our local state GOP office – until that leadership was stolen by fraud. 😡
I have more leads to follow – but looking is exhausting & tiresome.
It will be a little while for me to catch my third wind, grateful the holidays are soon.
I think the path forward is together with like-minded friends and trusted associates. Vet well, as they say. Good job so far for you-you’ve earned a holiday rest before doubling down in 2023!
I’d be very interested in hearing more as I too reside in Oklahoma. I know Lankford and Mullin are bought and paid for…
President Trump has always been a fighter. As a business man he experience great highs and lows in his business. Bankruptcy didn’t stop him. Historically, before he got into politics, the media called him the comeback kid. He’d take the hit, then start rebuilding again. Now, not all people have that tenacity. During the oil boom of the 80’s I saw men who once were living high on the hog, lose everything and turn to drink. One friend’s husband lost it all, then sat in his home office and drank himself to death. The wife had no business experience. In order to pay the bills and keep the creditors away, she got her real estate license and starting selling real estate. Every single sale she thanked God for. There will be some like Sundance who will be like Trump and brush the dust off and push ahead. There will be others in the MAGA movement who will be like my friend’s husband. Maybe they won’t turn to drink, but they will disengage. The choice is ours. Either way the next decade will not be a cake walk. “It is what it is”. Whining, bitching, and cursing each other won’t change a thing. How you define yourself is up to you. We are facing a fork in the road. What ever you decide is your choice. Just don’t harass me if I chose the other road. You go your way, I’ll go mine.
As a recovered battered conservative I’m glad he’s running again. I’m not happy that he’s running as a Republican. He should have created the America First Party to gut the UniParty. Will I vote for him? Sure, but my vote won’t count in corrupt Michigan.
This is awesome. By announcing his run this early to me serves several purposes.
First: It acts as an insurance plan, much harder to arrest/indict a candidate for President. This doesn’t mean the swamp rats won’t try…we’ll see.
Second: He will force the fake news to cover him, and this will further expose the enemy MSM as swamp rat devotee’s. This should finish the destruction of these frauds/news actors.
Third: This does not preclude any investigations into voter fraud, 16,18,20,22. He never conceded. And how overt the swamp rats have become in their thievery, see 2022. Also, if this goes the way of say Brazil, we have a real leader.
Fourth: Any gelding Repuke’ contender will now flail against the tungsten steel spine that is our Great American President Donald J Trump and this includes Ron DeSantis. Note: Anyone thinking about this will prove without a shadow of a doubt, that they are a dummy aka cannon fodder.
Fifth: This will also take care of any question about who the leader of the party is and our VSGDJT will essentially run as an incumbent. I especially love this aspect, whether the swamp rats like it or not we have our Republican candidate and this will force the party to MAGA. Shout out to the Old Crow McConnell, suck on it.
Sixth: The uniparty will link up like never before, much easier to defeat an enemy out in the open. Look for utter lunacy.
I could go on, this is a good thing. A swamp rat nightmare…cool.
Ultra-MAGA!
Beautifully said. Thank you.
I hope President Trump and his entire family see what you have written.
It would be such an encouragement to them!
And this comments section – so many wonderful comments here, pro Trump and pro America and pro freedom. Perfect.
Sundance hits the essence of President Trump. He is an American who wants to help keep America the way our Founders intended. I’m all in and will support him to the bitter end if needed, but hoping for a better end.
If Trump is on the ballot in 2024, I WILL vote for him.
That being said, I don’t think he will be on the GOP ballot. The Swamp has invested way too much time and effort opposing him to let him on the ballot. And in case you haven’t been paying attention for the last 6 years, the Swamp will ruin anyone who tries to help him.
People will day I am a defeatist or have no faith. I am a realist. From all the conservatives I interact with, Trump won’t have enough support to win the Primary, even if he is free to run. I expect him to be charged with a (no pun intended) trumped up charge and convicted so that he cannot run.
Like Sundance says, there are trillions at stake. They will not take any chances.
It will be interesting to see who the “conservatives” pick to challenge Trump. Pence has too much baggage from 2020. They might go DeSantis in order to lure away some MAGA people. Either way, we live in some interesting times. One thing for sure Biden will not be running. He think he is, but then he can’t put on a jacket. Dementia will get him in the end. Bet Newsome will be the pick.
After reading this post, it has become absolutely crystal clear that the truth will win out during our lifetime, that covid was deliberately released, to destroy Donald Trump, crush us and mandate mail in voting.
All that collateral damage, they heartlessly still keep pretending didn’t happen, did and GOD ALMIGHTY, WILL BE THIER JUDGE.
God can’t put them all in prison. And civilized society cannot function until something is done with these people.
I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw on TV an ad pushing the vax for pregnant women. “It’s safe!” Lord, have mercy.
Amen! Thank you, Sundance. Thank you Donald J. Trump. Thank You, God. I haven’t felt this good in 2 years. Oh, it’s wonderful to have hope again!
EXCELLENT!!..SD… the one line I would like to highlight is Trump is American, my feeling is all those forces that have been fighting him are NOT American…I’m not talking about citizen ship I mean philosophy and belief in the concept of our founding fathers …also Trump is the only one to do the job..as he has already demonstrated..
🇺🇸💪😀👍
I love, LOVE Trump, but, without a violent, American “French Revolution” he will NEVAR be president again.
Republican and Democrat Bi-Coastal Elites will NEVAR let Trump be president again. It’s too rigged and will only be fixed by way of bloody constraint.
The most consequential president in our lifetimes, he increased the wages of the middle class, to a certain extent returned at least some power to the ballot box, revealed just how evil Washington D.C. (The Radix Malorum) really is (The Deep State is real and now everyone knows it.), how sclerotic and bloated the Federal Government is and most importantly, a behind the curtain look, at the nefarious, Fascist relationship between the swamp snakes in D.C. and the 6 major media companies (The MSM), Big Tech and our corrupt “Captains of Industry” on Wall Street and how our “Intelligence Agencies” make sure we serfs don’t get out of control.
If the serfs become too restive, then bring in millions of people to suppress the wages and power of existing Americans and look right into the camera and tell them “The border is under control”. Replace Democrats, Republicans and Independents with cheap labor, chaos and maintain the status quo. 78% of Americans want the border under control. Mitch McConnell’s approval rate is 7% (Think of it!) He WILL remain in power.
If you think Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer care about Democrats and Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy care about Republicans then you, are still reeling from the horrors of the Jussie Smollette attack. We like a fan boys, cheering for our home team in a game with a predetermined outcome that is designed to euchre us out of cash at the gate and strip us of any dignity as the so called “election” comes closer.
Now go get your booster shot and be sure to put out cookies for Santa.
Guess I’m on the naughty list—-all my comments are “Awaiting for approval”.
I thought this was a “free speech” platform, lol!
Hey Sundance, instead of removing my posts, why don’t you RESPOND to them with a rebuttal.
That’s called honest DEBATE where I come from!
The moderators posted in comments yesterday they are dealing with an unusual issue, working to resolve.
They are working as fast as they can. God bless the admins.
You can’t pray to God for a hole, you’ve got to dig it. But on the lighter, hopeful side, the Great Awakening comes from God and more and more of his children are awakening to the fact that the hole is needed. Let’s just say the hole is in the bottom of the swamp, there, does that make sense. DJT is the steam shovel and needs our help. Let’s pour on the coals…
Martin Armstrong has remarked in a few interviews that he has met with many world leaders over the years. He met with PDJT at Mar-a-Lago.
Armstrong said what was unique and different about President Trump was that he expressed his deep concern about having to send so many letters to families informing them of the death of their sons and daughters in the military.
Armstrong said no other world leader had ever expressed such a concern. It really speaks volumes, doesn’t it?
Thank you Sundance 🇺🇸 President Trump
(Q)
We needed a major disruption and Donald Trump was ideal for that role.
As I look at the 2024 landscape what I see different is what I see better. Just about everyone now sees the level of corruption that exists in the apparatus of government, thanks to President Trump’s first term in office.
(EQ)
I believed Trump would win as soon as he became the front runner because I knew the people were ready for Drain the Swamp. That they had grown tired of being lied to by Washington.
But I said, Trump is only 1 man + a POTUS can be obstructed. The key to his success would be 1. Keeping enough GOP Senators in line to prevent them from removing him from office for jaywalking. Yes, I believed back then the corruption was bone deep. 2. Trump had to become a Movement…. He had to develop coattails.
He accomplished both of those.
I wish he’d of at least given a full attempt to Drain the Swamp his 1st term. Exposed the crimes. Maybe it was better to wait until they rigged the 2020 Election so more people would understand how horrible things really are. It’s debatable + it’s also history.
What we need now is to get as many of the almost 80 million people who voted for Trump to get energized about putting our collective talents + resources together to —— do everything we can to Resist + Coerce the powers working to destroy our civilization by a Great Reset…. Drain or paralyze the Swamp. And so on…
The facts are – we haven’t really tried much beyond standard Electioneering.
Enough was done to get the vote out + try to hold the people running the election accountable. But the game was rigged + we didn’t overcome it – yet.
— Now, it is absolutely mandatory that we greatly expand the scope of our effort.
In short, the Left has gone insane. They have terrible ideas that do not work. They have increasingly lost members who have woken up to how backward + evil their leadership is.
But – raise your hand if you think they are ineffective….
You are wrong…
The Left knows how to use coercion/pressure to get what they want or close to it.
We should never for lynch mobs to burn city streets + attack isolated women or people in wheelchairs like we’ve seen the Leftist Shock Troops do.
But we should recognize + learn from the knowledge that – the Left is far better at using their people than we are…. We count on our elected officials in DC too much even though we know many of them are fake/traitors.
— 80 million Trump Voters means we have a very deep well of talent, experience, $$$ + more…..
We just haven’t seen it tapped effectively beyond Election time.
That must change starting yesterday…
Trump’s best speech
full of passion and right on point:
https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefings-statements/remarks-president-trump-south-dakotas-2020-mount-rushmore-fireworks-celebration-keystone-south-dakota/
We love you PT45 🙂 Let’s roll!
Every election cycle the ‘inclusive’ GOP invited us all in knowing we’d never show up… Trump comes along and says, “okay, can I bring a few of my friends?” Once we showed up we were treated like homeless squatters…no more… it’s time to hand out eviction notices…
This column is why The Conservative Treehouse is the first thing I open every morning. You said it all perfectly. Thank you.
Trump 2024.
“THE GREAT RESCUE”
DJT is the only option in 2024.
But without denouncing the jabs, he is simply the lesser of two evils.
Ditto.
But someone’s gotta get Trump the message: You’re the leader, but your personnel appointments are huge.
You MUST choose your personnel wisely–your personal staff, your cabinet, your VP, all the appointed positions in all the executive branch offices.
You must have standards and vet ALL administration personnel to those standards.
You must ensure that Jared Kushner has no role or input in your administration. He can come over for Christmas dinner, but is forbidden to have any input on any policy issue.
Personnel is what hobbled your first administration. Let personnel be what makes your next soar.
MAGA.
Staffing has always been an enormous challenge. There are about 4,000 appointed directly by the president, and roughly 1,200 of those require confirmation by the Senate. It’s impossible to vet that many people thoroughly and still get other things done. Then getting them through the Senate swamp is yet another challenge. Sometimes it’s easy to believe the system has been engineered for failure.
Yes, it’s difficult. But hiring the right people is the key to success. In fact, it’s the only way to succeed.
It’s not impossible at all. Just need to put the right resources on the issue. Recruiting and vetting should be number one priority.
Case studies of personnel selection failures in Trump administration #1:
Pence
Every single Attorney General
Fauci
Brix
CIA Directors: Pompeo, Gina Haspell
Secretary of State: Pompeo
Every single Secretary of Defense
Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff, Milley
Jared Kushner
And on, and on….
The enemy is the Deep State–the Deep State is entrenched bureaucrats in the Executive Branch. Some are civil servants who continue from administration to administration. The political (Presidential) appointees are key. Regardless, they all serve at the pleasure of the President.
They are The Swamp.
Trump had it right–he needed to Drain the Swamp. But he did not.
Success of his next administration will hinge on this.
Again, difficult, but crucial.
Not being hobbled by continuous investigations that controlled who he could appoint will help that.
It’s on! What a man!
People feeling battle fatigue or similar discouragement – please understand – we have no choice…
I want to be wrong but I’ve been saying that since Dec 2019…
The Great Reset is real. Only those in deep denial don’t see that.
They aim to dramatically alter all our lives.
Our numbers will grow as time moves forward + more people are pressed into a position from which denial is increasingly impossible.
The more we organize + build networks + get in the habit of pooling our talents + resources now, the more useful we can be as more people wake up to reality…
Surrender is not an option.
The Social Engineering Mega $$$ that has corrupted our institutions is not going to let us mind our own business + just live our local lives…
The New Normal for all of us is Drag Queen Story Hours for the neighborhood children including our own + “vaccines” with God only knows what’s in them shot into the arms of our children before they can participate in society…
You must fight that anyway you can…
80 million people who reject that voted for Trump in 2020.
We are not alone.
We are not powerless.
We can’t afford to sit this out….
He’s got my vote. I’ll drop off my ballot at a drop box every week from now until Nov 5, 2024.
True the Vote has a (new) initiative to partner with country sheriffs across the country, in order to educate them on election law and what they can/should do to help facilitate free and fair elections, support poll workers who have issues, investigate chain of custody issues (like late night print shop runs) etc. This grassroots effort needs our support, so if you are on terms with your county sheriff office, that might be one place to help coordinate if you are a poll worker. Introduce them to TTV and this new initiative.
God Bless Trump for the attempt and I give him all the credit in the 🌎
But nothing less then a march on Rome will stop this and I hope he isn’t just delaying the inevitable.
Our rulers will do anything to stop him. I think they have already proven that. We only have the right to elect whoever they will allow us to elect. 2016 will not be repeated.
How different would life be in China today if this man had been cloned 80 million times?
…If 80 million voters had had his back + followed his lead instead of going home to wait it out…..
https://youtu.be/qq8zFLIftGk
(Keep in mind – this happened AFTER troops had already slaughter hundreds or thousands of protesters.)
This is what made me a Trump supporter:
Character matters.
All in! Beautifully written and I read it three times!
It struck me, stopped me, made me almost gasp….
when President Trump noted needing
“friendship & prayers”
and that
this “ is dangerous”
at the end of his speech last night.
—————————-
Dear God,
Guide and keep safe President Donald J Trump.
Amen

WE ARE THE GREATEST MOVEMENT IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD!!! WE ARE ONE!!! AND WE WILL WIN!!!
I agree with two things Vox Day mentions, Trump pushed injections, and there are MAGA people in a federal gulag because Trump could have pardoned them and didn’t. Another of my favorite bloggers said Trump’s term was around 50-50 success and failure. I know one man can’t do it all. But….And it would be the height of stupidity to think Trump does not have backers with an agenda. Who backs Trump? https://voxday.net/2022/11/16/meme-of-the-week-006/
This man walked alone into the swamp, filled with the lowest, filthiest. soulless evil on earth so that we might have the chance to save our country. All the elephants we sent in there to fight with him, turned on him.
How can “50/50” even begin to describe what he accomplished.
Just go ahead and call me “The Height of Stupidity” then. If you think DJT has any agenda but his own MAGA objectives then maybe you should check your sources.
President Trump was not able to pardon the J6’ers because he was no longer President. He HAS been financially supporting them, however and has spoken about the travesty at his rallies. He has said he will pardon them all as soon as he is back in office.
President Trump never pushed the clotshots – he said it was your choice whether to take it or not.
If you have to ask about backers with an agenda then you don’t know President Trump – he cannot be bought.
President Trump pushed getting the shots developed and approved. He always said getting them is up to you.
Better go find yourself a better source of information. Your ‘favorite’ bloggers are feeding you bad information.
You need to do a lot more research
And a refreshing feature is Ivanka won’t be in a new administration nor will Jared.
Hello Treepers – I have a serious question here…let me start by saying I support our VSGPDJT 150% – Do you think he should come out and VEHEMENTLY tell the world he renounces the covid shots and admits he was grossly misled by the jackals that were pushed on him and come out and admit the evidence is there to warrant stopping ALL these covid shots ?
Maybe also throw in there he will initiate overturning laws and allow people to mass sue these Pharm companies.
Get in front of this before they can pin all the deaths on him….discuss please as I think he should….but what do I know – I just love the man and he needs to be our leader in 24
No. He should not “renounce the covid shot”………….he should behemently repeat his policy that the COVID shot was never supposed to be “mandatory”.
but he championed it due to the bad info he had foisted on him..he was caught between a rock and a hard place and was cornered…
And why would someone as smart as DJT listen to bad info from the little SMURF FAUCI, BIRX the BOOB, and Matthew Pottinger!!
DJT has to issue a mea culpa and take responsibility!!
BS you are aptly named.
BS
LOL
Agreed..
Donald Trump thought that he would be given good, proper and correct advice by health care experts in their own field. He never thought they would lie cheat and steal to make a buck.
Truly, he and the rest of most thinking Americans…never expected such duplicity.
And libs shutting down honest discussion, honest inquiry, regarding risks etc…it was a “because we said so”
Donald Trump needs to make those responsible for the delusions of adequacy, be accountable, more so.
Presidents are not experts in everything. They have experts to help them make good decisions, or they should…the Gnome and 30 Pence along with scarf lady need to be held accountable. The Gnome and the Scarf…supposedly the best in their respective professions?
Hindsight is 20/20. Early on he shut down flights from China. He called it what it was, the China Flu and blamed China. Early on in the pandemic there was public panic. To do nothing at that point and to say don’t worry about it would have been political suicide. He allowed governors to make the decisions for their states. He supported existing drugs like Ivermectin. He put a committee together,, not knowing Pence was a traitor. He thought they were giving him the science and not politics. He opined that he didn’t want to see the cure be worse than the disease and encourged governors not to lock down their states. Trump never supported mandatory vaccines. Every political leader supported the jab including Ron DeSantis.
The governors and mayors are the one who killed people and locked down their states and cities. IMO, that is where most of the blame lies. They are the ones that played politics and the some of the worst of the worst just got re-elected. Not sure what that says but it is not good.
The people who need to pay a heavy price are the WHO, CDC, Pfizer, Moderna, China, Fauci and all who funded and developed the virus when it was illegal to do so. Crimes against humanity were committed. I do not believe Trump committed a crime.
The guilty criminal monsters
are being,
and will continue to be exposed.
Pence was in charge of the Scamdemic Response, or lack thereof.
Scarf lady has WRITTEN A BOOK in which she admits she knew the Vax was bollocks but pushed it anyway. So there’s that.
As we have seen Americans demanded a solution and Trump produced, that’s all of the answer that will make sense.
Americans didn’t care and still don’t if it was effective, the panic was real the shot was not. I’d say put water in a needle and give it out as a better solution then whatever was in that shot.
The lady who promised to give the American public … “granular” data … and instead gave us cooked books and rubbish statistics … and outright propaganda
No, deliberate lies to mislead the public into making decisions that may not have been right for them, their bodies and their overall health.
Malpractice? Malfeasance?
Yes, admitted in a public forum, no less.
Agreed.. President Trump never insisted or even spoke about forcing this vax on us. I’m glad he’s back .,win, lose or draw he’ll pull the curtain back even more and hopefully more people will realize the federal government and all its agency’s and bureaucrats (hired.appointed or elected ) are not our friends on any level..
I’m for Trump!
Exactly, and he can use that in every speech he gives saying he now has better information + thinks we need to investigate what happened + prosecute the people who broke the law + deceived us all when they knew the truth already…
No, at this moment I think the focus should be on organizing We the People to solve the election integrity problem. We need to fix Pa, Ga, Michigan and the rest of the cheating states.
Agreed, peace!!
“Vacinnes” don’t steal elections..
People DO!
This^^^^^ I read about a Wisconsin group that threw sand into the gears (like Sundance says) and it worked. I want to be on that team for PA.
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2022/11/how_wisconsin_streetfighters_disrupted_a_democrat_ballotgathering_system.html
Just read the article … excellent short synopsis about the hijacking of our voting system.
But they lost the governor race and win the senate by a very small margin. ??? there has to be more than just cleaning voter rolls. How about non-citizens voting? How about the machines?
Yep a small group of patriotic techies .
A Little background info here from Wisconsin. It’s not just the techies. This is a unique state with unique laws and a streak of populism which dates back to (and precedes) fighting Bob LaFollette. He didn’t come from nowhere.
1) WI has unique state laws that make life insurance available at reasonable cost to any resident. Run by the state, like the old mutual associations. Non-profit – quietly protects working people like farmers and foresters and military – many a widow(er) and orphoan has benefited and the insurance lobbyists have consistently gotten nowhere in abolishing;
2) When the welfare reform thing came along, rural communities took the block grant money and leapt at the chance to get welfare moms off of dependency. Local groups formed to help every single mother. No childcare ? Arrangements were found at the local level. No ride to work ? Volunteers were found. No healthcare — BadgerCare is the state solution. Also free local clinics staffed by volunteer docs, staff and translators with insurance and supplies donated (quietly) by big providers. Decent, generous BadgerCare covers working people up to moderate means decently. Quietly kept under the radar out of fear that half of northern IL would cross the border for the great benefits. Lots of local people were determined to solve local dependency problems at the local level — and did. Did wonders for balancing the books too.
3) WI has fantastic consumer protection laws and other little nuggets tucked into the WI code reflecting the very folksy, decent, hard-working people at its roots.
Like that Norwegian immigrant, Hans Heg, who worked his tail off, made something of himself, then volunteered to go fight in the Civil War for the right of other people to have the same chance — only to have his statue torn down by people who never risked their lives for anything.
Where else do you find a hotly contested election for State Supreme Court that makes Wall St Journal headlines ?
4) The liberal urban/conservative rural divide is different in WI because there is not a single massive urban area with power to dominate the state, like Detroit/MI, Chicago/IL, or Minneapolis/MN.
Too many people out ice-fishing, hunting and watching Packer Games to really build a Radical Left or Radical Right. And the animal-loving organic family farmers see first hand the dangers of Big Ag and Big Govt working together against them. This state runs on practical realistic solutions to specific problems and the work ethic to Git-R-Done.
Wow, did not know that about WI. Lucky you don’t have a big blue city that votes or ballots the state into crazy stuff. WA resident
But, y’all have Madison.
And you can keep it.
Exactly. If the cheating and ballot harvesting don’t get fixed, he could get 350 million votes and the Dems will get 350,000,001! He has to win Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, Michigan, Georgia, in order to win the electoral college, or a great many of them. They’ll never let that happen, as it stands now. EVER!
Pro tip: I wouldn’t wait for Ron DeSantis to change PA’s corrupt voting system … or MI … or GA …
Exactly
Agreed whole heartedly.
Last night sounded like that is what he is going to do. He said WE ALL have to be involved.
Covid shots are a symptom of the problem. He needs to focus on the root problem — our country is being run by an evil cabal of global corporate neo-fascists, and our “elected representatives” are happily raping our country while our “intelligence community” is trying to start WWIII while simultaneously acting as the enforcement arm of the above to suppress and oppress any and all opposition.
The Covid shots were not a mistake, Trump took them on his Physician’s advise and always said people should do what they think is best. The problem is the Medical community and how they marched lockstep with the government on treatment of this disease. Government said no Ivermectin and most of the Medical community said the same.
Trump’s major flaw during Covid was shutting the country down. He failed on this in a major way giving in to Fauci, Pence and too many others.
Never forget that Trump pushed Hydroxychloroquine.
trump didn’t shut down the country, individual states did that to themselves.
He was the President of the United States and he went along with this so your memory is faulty. Two weeks was all it was suppose to be though.
stop lying
He declared a National emergency. That is not a lie and the states would not have had the funding to shut down without it. You are the liar.
Still common sense deficient.
Be negative on another tree.
Go find a cherry blossom tree in DC .
What are you, a cult follower? Does Trump have faults at all in your eyes? It’s people like you that feeds the Trump is a cult crap we hear all the time.
He has lots of them, however, only he and Reagan got this country up and running so I overlook them. You know, for the hood of the country. If you actually want to complain about faults, let us do Biden now. Let us start with his constant lying and let us not pretend it is because he is old, he has done it all his life. How about when he threatens constituents who don’t agree with him, some with insults and some with violence. Also let us not forget the corruption which is so blatant, my cat could prosecute it. The people who vote for him are truly the cultists or the brain dead.
Well good, I agree but lets us at least admit he has faults so we can have a conversation without getting attacked at the mere mention of his mistakes like you just did to me.
Don’t preach to the choir about Biden. Everyone knows this.
You have never been in the same room with common sense. You are just a stirrer.
At the time he called a national emergency, with the knowledge that was available at the time, any leader, republican, democrat, independent woud have done the declared an emergency.
We should be blaming Biden for maintaining a national emergency that is obviously for political purposes only.
Well no not just anyone would shut the whole country down, and everyone agrees about blaming Biden for continuing this crap.
You are lacking common sense — armchair quarterback!
For telling the truth. No wonder people call Trump followers a cult.
I’m the biggest Trump supporter in the world but he has faults and one of them was declaring a National emergency that shut the country down.
A brief pause until we had more information about the virus made sense. No way Trump supported long shutdowns the Democrats implemented.
I agree but once you declare a National Emergency, then Congress starts doling out the funds to the states and that is exactly what they did.
Why did it extend beyond two weeks? The Democrats were going to milk it for all they could and did. By then there was no stopping it. The only mistake was declaring a National Emergency.
Biden just extended the covid state of emergency. Move on. Nobody except the rabid Left cares about Covid. The economy and the country devolving into fascism is far more important.
I suppose you haven’t noticed that FAKE President Bidinh … STILL … has America in a declared STATE OF EMERGENCY because – COVID. How about you focus on THAT?!
He left it to the states to decide based on their conditions.
Not possible without declaring a National Emergency. The states would not have had the funding to shut anything down.
Forget “states.” Think “individual employers.” My employer chose to “shut down” weeks after all the other companies in our one office building did. Vividly remember walking to the metro bus stop, wondering how long I’d be working remotely.
Again, my employer shut down the office, not Inslee and certainly not PT.
I agree, they marched lockstep with the government.
You are right. Governor Laura Kelly of Kansas shut it down on March 30, stating that rural hospital emergeny rooms would not be able to handle covid patients.
She immediately closed down all the SCHOOLS.
By then Trump had already declared a National Emergency. Check the timeline.
This was the ONLY way a state could afford to shut down so they did.
Newsome, Whitmer, Prtizker, Cuomo…please add as you see fit.
“The Covid shots were not a mistake”
Hell yeah they were. mRNA was NOT tested, not safe, and much, much less effective than touted by Fauci – who Trump kept on stage AFTER knowing he was involved with the Wuhan lab.
Trump owes the world an explanation – and an apology – or he is unfit to lead again.
Well I disagree. The Medical community and the FDA is to blame but not Trump.
and about his continued support for Fauci – after knowing his compromise by financially supporting research at the joint PLA/commercial lab in Wuhan??? Research considered too dangerous to do in the US?
Stop kidding yourself. This is a BIG showstopper he has to navigate early.
He doesn’t have to navigate because the blame was with Fauci, the FDA and the medical community.
How do we know this? Because Trump pushed for treatments like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin.
The government Medical bureaucracy had to stop the treatments so as to have the Emergency Authorization for the vaccine because if you have therapeutics that work then you can’t have Emergency authorization for a vaccine.
What a gaffe!
The shut down became International protocol … the entire charade was fabricated by Fauxci and teams of “expert” immunologists with computer models predicting 100’s of millions of deaths. If Trump had resisted the shutdown … he’d probably have been impeached AGAIN for “trying to murder the American people”. Many of you Treepers have very short memories and forget the daily stories about how many Americans Trump had murdered by his various COVID decisions. The entire COVID pandemic was constructed for the sole purpose of destroying Trump. It didn’t. Because Trump navigated it as no leftist predicted. Trump outwitted and outplayed the leftist cabal.
He did not have to play into their hands by declaring a National emergency. That is what enabled the states to shut down. Otherwise they wouldn’t have had the funds to do so.
Trump’s flaw (and at same time, perhaps greatest virtue) is his inability to communicate in nuanced sentences. His explanation for his Covid choices would have to be carefully crafted and carefully delivered and I do not think he will ever do so.
Someone else should probably write and deliver that message for him. It is not that complicated: basically, he is a well-meaning, good-intentioned genius, but someone born in the 1940’s who harbors a certain respect for medical and health professionals that, as we have learned during Covid, is pretty much completely unwarranted.
Back in the day, a doctor, pretty much any doctor, was a respected professional who provided unbiased, thoughtful and caring service. Now, we can not assume anything of the sort.
Well his greatest flaw was the people he surrounded himself with like Pence because he never should have declared a National emergency which is was enabled these shutdowns.
Leave him alone.
Let him be Trump and love him for who he is.
God made him in the image of who he wants him to be and it’s not our job to think we can outdo God.
we all suspect it and some evidence supports it,
however, other evidence shows the shot is ok.
A can of worms. He should focus on the unnecessary lockdowns
for months/years. We know that was bogus.
Exactly.
He can’t! Do you ever see a democrat back up or apologize? You go forward.
Being Covid is man made, Denying the shot effectiveness would make crooks inject more covid into society. Imagine being a president that says the shot doesn’t work and they infect people on a larger scale. Trump didn’t make the vaccine mandatory. Good enough for me.
There are people who are already saying they won’t vote for him for pushing the shots. I don’t think he ever really pushed very hard and he was definitely against mandates but in a world gone insane for something to protect them from what the media was telling them was akin to the Black Plague, with the upcoming election, and with the media blaming him for “all the deaths,” I think he had to at least point out that it was his administration than knocked down barriers to get us what they were telling him and us, which was a vaccine that was 95% effective against disease and safe. I can only imagine his frustration at having such an impressive record and a humming economy only to have it all overshadowed and wrecked by this pandemic.
The media was hailing the vaccine as the saving grace to get us out of the mess we were in and Joe Biden was poised to take credit for it as he stepped into office because they held out even telling us they were ready until after the election. President Trump wasn’t going to let them forget that it was his Operation Warp Speed that was responsible for getting them to market so quickly. Evidence is only beginning to trickle out now that these shots may be the cause behind the sudden adult deaths and excess deaths on the rise. No matter how much any of the “man on the street” or various doctors and researchers on youtube are convinced they are the cause until it can be proven that it is a fact and not just a correlation, any public leader can’t just go around making scientific claims. They can point out the correlation. They can fund “warp speed” research that will get to the bottom of it but to make definite claims and renounce the shot would be taking a risk of both further research not getting done because Pharma will try to bury it and also the media touting the claim about how dangerous he would be if elected for making scientific claims that has not yet been fully researched or proven. He has to walk a fine on this one as far as public messaging, IMHO.
For what its worth, Trump got jabbed. So at the end of the day, if others got the shot, he did too.
No.
Bad idea. These evil demons will flip the switch in a heartbeat I can see the headlines now.
“New CDC Study Shows Trump led Covid task force rushed vaccines, mislead the public”
Oh great. The first comment I read covers both arguments that anti-Trump concern trolls from many camps have been using for months whenever an article is focused on PDJT. They have NOTHING else.
The man is squeaky clean. I knew I’d wake up today and read the BS they spew, which will only increase as of his announcement. I guess we can’t get away from it. No rest for the weary. Even here it’s the first subject in the comments of the first article I read today the first morning of his candidacy. TRUMP 2024! MAGA-A!
AND…here we are all arguing our own points, some with links.
Not only free advertising…I love this man Trump!
He has half of America doing his research and posting links!
Keep up the good works, America!
He should remind people how we have dealt with prior pandemics. Read “The Great Barrington Declaration” and learn what great epidemiologists, researchers, and physicians from around the world recommend.
You raise a very good question. A very hot button type as the libs are still all in on ‘stab and jab clot shots’.
No, I personally think he should leave it to the individual as to what preventatives they feel will work best for them. Make it an individual choice and get government out of health care. Especially this clot shot type of health care. That said…
And remember that Bribem extended the scamdemic until next May…
He needs to have a skillfully put together verbal response to meet the challenge, that is for sure. Ol’ JB (IL) will have plenty to say when the time is right for him in Chicago oh I mean Illinois…JB wants it mandatory for school.
That said, here in Chicagoland, they are ramping up the hysteria for covid, flu and RSV. Lions and tigers and bears oh my, the numbers are rising….We got a trifecta coming.
Yes, he should come out against the fake vaccines + call for studies + investigations. He should parley that into investigating the lockdowns + much related to the launch of the Great Reset these last 2 years.
Why do so many who understand the need to Drain the Swamp —-
—- want to let them off the hook for hitting us with a bioweapon so they could inject a 2nd bioweapon into our children – just because it might make our hero look bad….???
Trump can maintain his dignity + his standing + criticize what has happened the past 2 years…
The rise of medical tyranny + the launch of the Great Reset with a biomedical assault worldwide is the most important thing we’ve witnessed since WW2…
….but we want to give DC a pass because we’re afraid it will weaken Trump’s appeal or think it is an attack on him….
It’s not right…
Big No. President Trump has said, repeated Covid shot “not mandatory”.
There are people with research data to do all of that. People who suffered deaths of family members. Hospitals, big Pharma pushing and administering shots; firing staff – businesses firing stuff etal. Requires meticulous documentation, irrefutable evidence. Time will take care of all that – expect ‘to-be-expected’ attacks when the time comes around. Many lawsuits in various forms have already been started by individuals, politicians, doctors and families.
Promise an investigation/prosecution of Fauci and other CDC/FDA carpetbaggers and leave it at that. Fauci played a huge part in deceiving HIM! Let the courts take it from here!
Oh here we go with the COVID vaccine police. lol
You’re in a small group obsessing about this crap. It’s not important any more. And Trump never mandated the vaccine. Stop acting as though he did.
He needs to be our leader now.
Did he mention ‘white’ people in his speech…you know, his major support? Or the political prisoners?
It was a declaration speech. What you are suggesting is that he give the media fodder to distract away from this simple fact. This is not a wise suggestion, and neither was the “denounce covid shot” suggestion. He is playing it smart here… and that is a promising sign.
Just stop it. Nothing you post will stop us from supporting President Trump.
I recall Trump picked up a record minority votes in 2020. Nice try.
Res —give it a res(t)!
Dear Ad REM,
it sure would be nice to have a block button to obvious wind up merchants could disappear. Like is too short to have your morning coffee ruined by their ilk.
