President Donald Trump held a townhall event with Laura Ingraham, a woman who feels remarkably self-important given her irrelevance. Within the interview President Trump extended the allotted time to give the audience some direct, honest and pragmatic answers to questions in a way that only Trump can give.
Well worth watching this extended segment to remind ourselves exactly why President Trump is a very unique person in this time of our nation’s history. WATCH:
.
This is the core reason why Donald J Trump is a transformative figure in American politics. The MAGA movement that he has inspired with a brutally honest assessment of the challenges, and a keenly pragmatic approach toward the optimal solutions, is exactly why CTH has supported President Donald Trump since 2015.
Trump is the man we need.
There has never been a moment in his tenure within the universe of politics, when I have felt regret for my advocacy or support. I simply see this guy as the most inspired and favored presentation of a leader in our time. It is remarkable.
Amen.
He is our only hope.
He is not our only hope. We are. And the God on whom our founders placed their trust and the God on whose principles we founded our government.
We just don’t know it.
PDJT is an awesome man. He needs us. He has and continues to awaken us and open our eyes.
He has exposed many and drawn out many RINOs and pretenders, wolves in Sheeps clothing, and blatant covert enemies.
We must awaken and activate more.
Frankly, its sad that President Trump is SO remarkeable.
It shouldn’t be remarkeable that a man has worked in business his whole life, and yet the most thorough investigations of every aspect of his businesses, and his personal dealings with others, can find NOTHING, so his enemies HAVE to make sh*t up.
It SHOULDN’T be remarkeable,..but it is.
It shouldn’t be remarkeable that we have a politician who honestly states what he intends to do if elected,…and then does.
It SHOULDN’T be remarkable,…but it is.
I completely agree.
Truth vs Lies
Pro-American vs Anti-American
Good vs Evil
President Trump and his Make America Great Again movement represent Good, Truth and Pro-American ideals.
Those against him represent Evil, Lies and Anti-American ideals.
He is simply a Good, Truthful Pro-American in a den of Evil, Lying Anti-American vipers.
To us, he is just normal. Compared to them he is remarkable. And that is remarkable!
We don’t deserve him…The fact that the man is still standing tall after 8 years of relentless assault, harassment & persecution is quite remarkable.
I can’t think of another human being, past or present, that would have stayed in the fight, let alone been as successful.
I fell sorry for all of the otherwise decent people who were indoctrinated to hate the man and go thru life mentally crippled by T.D.S.
I used to wonder how people could become so deranged as to drag their children into a Guyanese jungle to drink poison and turn on their neighbors and friends. Then came 2016 and I witnessed the transformation right before my eyes.
Up is down and down is up. Sobering.
If he had chosen not to run we’d be having to support (or close) DeSantis right now, a truly depressing thought.
Joe Biden is remarkable, too, in a bizzaro flipped and folded universe.
So very true Dutchman!!!
As always, you nail it. thank you!
Ultra-MAGA! The only way…
The people attracted to politics are by and large grifters. They enjoy spending Other People’s Money with No Accountability. Those are the good ones. The others are Communists.
“92% of the people that became President were Politicians, 8% were Generals.” And then God created President Trump.
Many years ago, a wildly popular Donald Trump was asked by an interviewer if he ever plans to run for President of the United States. His sincere reply: “Only if I have to.”
Trump didn’t need to step into the political arena for the fame, and he certainly doesn’t need the money. Decades after that interview, the billionaire developer stepped out of his comfort zone. Donald John Trump entered this fight to save the free world, because he HAD to.
God bless this man. And God bless the USA.
Yes, and compare the Trump family businesses to the Biden family enterprise.
Fabrication is prosecuted.
Selling out the country for foreign money and influence is rewarded.
No evidence = punishment
Glaring evidence = ignored
Trump runs his business. Biden represents his syndicate.
Well said!!
As Dave Ramsey always say: Just show up to work and work, that’s all it takes to be a “rock star”.
Satan is a crafty foe. Pray for President Trump.
Retired Magistrate here: This was the way it was supposed to be and the way it started out. However, it didn’t take long for the love of money to obliterate any moral foundation for those running for office. It was never our founders intent for elected officials to make a career out of their position; the intent was to do a good job for your term and then go home.
Oh, how far we have fallen.
Remarkable post. Thanks dutchman.
Trump is a ‘people’ person. He is able to ‘connect’, naturally….it is truly a gift. The man walks the walk…He is ‘authentic’ as a person can be…
Plus he talks with people, average people…even way back…he was always known for his concern for his employees on the construction sites, along with the many generosities he has been known for.
He as been known to work time in his hotels…in the kitchen, as a bell boy, maid, delivered room service, did some dog walking…ludicrous but the message was that he was not too important to find out how hard his employees work…and do the jobs they do. The dog walking touched me deeply–walking a guest’s dog….
Yup, Sundance….and Trump is also ….draining the swamp.
“The tough guy from Queens”….
…who’s got my support…gets the job done…under budget and ahead of schedule.
He even cleaned toilets.
Plenty of “toilets” in 2025….
The entire NYC identifies as that right now!
Including the plastic baggie!
Great interview for a variety of reasons.
Observation on a couple of quips:
“… 17 times in DC..”
On Biden – “… he doesn’t know how that he’s alive…”
Just sayin
I saw a clip yesterday, from a Q & A with the audience afterward and they asked a guy who was supposedly turned off before by his tone what he tho’t afterwards, and he gushed about how charming President Trump was.
Ask any Trump hating person why they feel that way, and 90% can’t give you an answer.
I suspect it’s envy for many. Most of the Trump hating women I have seen also appear physically unattractive to me. It’s why they ignore Melania, because deep down, they know they wouldn’t get so much as a glance from him.
liberal women are mostly back biting bitches
Amjean,that is so true…and ugly as well, inside and out.
At one stage in my life I studied indirect violence perpetrated by women against other women, usually through men. I saw very little correlation between it and party affiliation, although in my experience R women were somewhat more inclined. Funny that some became D when it suited them in workplaces as we aged.
My aunt is one of those; she’s never heard a Trump speech without some talking head telling her what to think about it and what she should think about President Trump, and she follows along, spouting what “they” said about President Trump as though they are her own thoughts.
At 90, she’s been thoroughly brainwashed by the Tel-LIE-vision (CNN, MSNBC, etc.) because that what she sits and watches every day for most of the day.
My mama died 2 years ago and she went to her grave extolling the virtues of Donald Trump. She went to Trump events with me in her wheelchair! Don’t proclaim that all old white ladies hate Trump.
They damned well better not flip her vote in 2024 to Biden. She will definitely turn over in her grave!
I love you, Mama.♥️
I love you, Donald Trump!
P.S. we live in California!
♥️🇺🇲🦁👑🇺🇲♥️
Oh there are some smart people left in California. I fear we are becoming fewer by the day. My condolences about your mother. Sounds like a very wise lady and good Mother.
My adopted (step) daughter wouldn’t vote for him because he was too much like her father, whom she apparently hated. Daddy issues!
They feel that way because they have been gaslit to feel that way- hence, they don’t know why. The can’t answer because they have been programmed. They respond without any thought or consideration as to why. So when asked why- they don’t know, it causes a computation error in their head because it’s not a complete thought for them; instead, it’s a programmed response with a programmed answer, i.e., mean tweets.
I read that 89% of Trump “news” is negative. Bombarded with negative news one begins to believe it.
Was talking yesterday with another Trump supporter who was complaining about him saying the same things over and over.
I pointed out that, just like the MSM bombards people with negative news, President Trump has to hammer his audience with positive news, in quick and simple terms, many times to make it stick.
And he has a lot of new people joining the MAGA movement, who haven’t heard this before.
See: CNN and MSNBC and probably more. 24/7
It worked for Her Gerbils.
It’s really nowhere near that simple. My mother is a screeching liberal. She was a tall (5’9″), slender, natural blonde model-y type with a brilliant mind. Also a Roman Catholic, though.
The idea that Trump is some perfect human or that all his detractors are merely ‘jealous’ is just absurd and it discredits MAGA, particularly when it tries to impute such motives in women. The right, and Trump, do not lack for their own share of issues with women.
I’d lay off that meme. It is kryptonite and radioactive.
And embryos are NOT ‘people.’
A living human sperm meets a living human egg. Fertilization creates a unique living human being.
An embryo is a unique living human being that has begun to grow.
Everybody, every ‘people’ in your usage, began as such. That starts the arc of our lives.
It is a very dangerous game to put artificial boundaries on what makes a living human being into ‘people’ who have rights, especially the right to life.
We now have euthanasia to kill the old, and extreme abortionists to kill the young even after birth. And those who would murder us in mass in-between while saying they will build back better.
The future is scary when we disregard the value of each and every unique human being.
And every time we place such a boundary it gets twisted to evil. For instance, they have already twisted the “you have to be born” requirement into “it is not a clone if it isn’t born”, thus allowing them to grow and use clones for parts and other abuses.
Your last sentence. Helps me understand
Should consider including an “IMHO” before you,…express your opinion.
WHAT, pretell ARE embryos, if not ‘people’?
Are they just clumps of human cells,…like a wart?
No, because a wart can NEVER grow to become a”people”, but an embryo CAN.
Kill a pregnant woman, and you can be convicted of a double homicide, kill a woman with a wart,…not so much.
Basic medical training teaches that wheneveryou are treatinga pregnant woman, you have TWO patients.
Woman with a wart,…not so much.
So, both LEGALLY and medically, an embryo is recognised and codified as being something more than a wart, or clump of cells, its a LIFE (hence the 2nd murder charge) and a person (hence the second patient).
Zzzzzz….
They can’t give you an answer because they have been hypnotized. They can articulate no reason for their severe hatred due to the fact that their minds have been taken over. It is terrifying to watch. What could they be hypnotized to DO?
Isn’t that part of what the clot shot does to those vaccinated? Changes the way their mind works, to a degree? Scary.
That’s kind of a chicken and egg question. All the people I know who got the original clot shot, and then continued to get every one offered since, were brainwashed and TDS types before the CCCP bioweapon ever was heard of.
So which came first – the emotional weakness that accepts the brainwashing, or the poison-jab that continually makes your mind and body weaker from there on out, thus more susceptible to more brainwashing?
I’m just so thankful I don’t have either!
I agree about the envy. The Dems I knew as a kid growing up were hateful and cynical as children. Their parents were working class who had a lot of animosity toward “the rich.”
“The rich” being anyone who earned or had more than they did.
Heard a long time ago that among the working class, “rich” is thought of as anyone making $15-$20K more per year than you do.
Just like “old” is anyone 15 years older than you; it works at ANY age.
If your 5, 15, or 70.
That same brainwashing we just talked about may be related to the envy of money. It’s kind of a dead end, coz you can’t necessarily acquire money by wishing for it. And our currently sick culture is constantly trying to train people to do just that!
I don’t envy people money.
I do envy skills (specifically musical) that I wish I had- and all that does is make me enjoy myself trying endlessly to improve my instruments…
But the best part is, no matter how well I perform, there will always be someone better to emulate, as well as someone less experienced who will be happy to be encouraged and helped. All good.
That hall is packed to the gills.
I don’t have the nerve to watch fox anymore. Ryan and his mouthpieces make me sick. Pathetic people run that schiff show.
Sundance qualifies for hazard-duty pay…
CUT THE CORD
ok. lol
Done, years ago. No regrets.
15 years ago, Bob.
One of my favorite testimonials
MLK, Jesus and Trump
https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8EdXKQe/
No tiktok for me. Ever.
That’s a great link!! Thanks for sharing.
What a man!
The world is blessed to have him.
I honestly believe if he were gaoled millions in your nation would rise in his defence.
Look at the audience these folks in attendance respect, admire and a significant number may love the man.
Cheers!
Would the countries in NATO defend us should we be attacked by another country?
I doubt it.
It’s not their problem and they don’t have the ability to do so.
I have never felt, not even once, another country defend us in my entire, more than half a century, of life. Not one defended us from COVID lockdowns, or any other calamity.
I am in my seventies and haven’t seen it either.
Although I read that France assisted us in our war
with the British. And if I recall correctly, I also
read that Russia assisted as well with either the
first or second go around with the British.
Something about using their ships to block our
harbor against the British. Perhaps someone
else can either verify or correct if that statement
is incorrect.
Regardless, we have assisted other countries
for centuries. In fact, as we note now, our
government uses war as their personal piggy bank.
To add to your excellent post, during our Civil War, we could have had the British after our country for a third time. Both the French and the Japanese (amazingly) told the British to stand down, in the Atlantic and the Pacific respectively.
During the Civil War, France bought from the CSA it’s future (next year’s) cotton crop,… and this act created what we now know and have as the Futures Markets.
Some NATO countries worked with us during the Iraq War (and Japan did, too), especially is support stuff–yes, some were physically in Iraq. I know this from someone who served two rotations there and was in a position to know.
they worked with us overseas because they were supposed to
as partners in NATO
“NATO” is hardly what it means. “NATO” had ZERO business in Iraq, especially seeing as the “US” were the aggressors.
We are currently under attack and not a single country in this world is opposing it. I don’t necessarily blame them. If they were to openly come to our aid, the FJB administration would attack them.
All of the EU is under attack too. Like our rotten leaders, their rotten leaders want it that way.
You will also find them using NGOs to facilitate the attack. Just like here.
And you will find their rotten leaders rewarding the attackers with all sorts of support. Bankrupting their states and people. Just like here.
Their attack has been going on since their rotten leaders got together with our rotten leaders to destroy Libya.
That is probably a good marker for the uniting of the Yellow into unity. Just another Obama transformation. Before that, the EU respected itself too much to unite with America.
Of course we have been inundated ever since Teddy Kennedy spearheaded New immigration laws.
I think you may be describing what sundance calls the Yellow Zone(?).
And isn’t it also what Putin called the Golden Billion?
Perhaps more correctly called The Clueless Remnant of Western Civilization?
(I am probably misunderstanding the terms – if so I hope someone elucidates…)
I too, will never regret supporting Donald Trump. May God continue to bless and protect this most transformative figure in our time.
Certainly agree. Nikki’s line-du-jour is “We don’t elect kings here.” And we don’t elect saints, either (Ronald Reagan comes closest), but we must elect someone with the fortitude to defend the United States and its historic culture that has brought so much good to the world.
Speaking of which, we are watching the dilution of that culture with the massive, unassimilated influx of people brought up and imprinted with a different sense of community—witness the lands from which they come. I traveled the world in my business career and saw first hand behind the tourist post card scenes how the mass of people really lived. Made me glad I had a welcoming home to return to.
And we don’t elect someone who isn’t eligible to be President either.
Great point!
I think George Washington came the closest to sainthood. Don Surber wrote a great review of his accomplishments and life in a recent article.
President Trump has survived multiple legal attacks – miraculously. And Washington survived multiple physical attacks, also miraculously.
The birth of this nation was not a cosmic accident.
And neither will be its rebirth…
I saw Biden on the news this morning and noticed his face looking very puffy. It looked like the ‘moon face’ you can get from taking prednisone.
He’s no doubt on a blender full of pharmaceuticals. His presidential physician has to be the most dishonest ever.
His presidential doctor is a Voodoo Witch Doctor that keeps the living dead’s lips moving and pen hand signing executive orders.
That’s why Zero lives just down the block….
You can be your … he never got the *jab* – would have keeled over by now for sure! 🙂
Even the mask can’t hide that.
Prednisone is probably the only thing keeps Joe Blow breathing.
Amen!
Joe Biden is Bizarro Trump.
If you know your circa 1960 Superman, you’ll understand.
Me get it! I mean, me don’t get it!
Those were my favorite Supes stories.
My other favorite was when they called one A Completely Imaginary Story.
(Uh…weren’t they all?)
Three words: Common Sense Patriotism. That’s him, that’s why he is loved. That plus he tells the truth! You never have to guess why or wonder if. Wow — that really is a big deal these days, unfortunately!
But why does he endorse establishment RINOs like Dr. Oz in PA and Sheehey in MN, and others? What is the cause? When he does this and ignores the America First candidate, it gets me to thinking about the fact that he’s still pushing the “vaccine”. After Covid I have to question if maybe even the people in charge have gotten to him too.
Two different things: pushing the vaccine and making it mandatory via government fiat. He can push the vaccine all he wants; that’s his choice. As long as he doesn’t use the government to force or coerce people into injecting it, I’m fine with his stance because I can still make my own decisions.
That’s America, that’s freedom. MAGA.
Because being human he was manipulated by people he thought cared about America.
Won’t be so easy next time around.
Excellent reply
When there is no candidate with a chance of winning other than a RINO, President Trump is pragmatic enough to prefer any Republican instead of a left-wing Democrat who will vote with Democrats on everything.
In PA, there was (I think her name was Kathy Bartlett) running against Oz. There were obvious problems with her candidacy that were visible and President Trump possibly knew and suspected more than we could see. So, MAGA stayed home. Though I don’t really blame them for not liking some of his views, the result was that a Democrat won. How is having another Democrat in the Senate better?
You also forget the hysteria over Covid that was pushed endless by the media with daily figures prominently on the news screen 24/7. President Trump is not a doctor or a scientist with understanding of mRNA technology. He was trying to help the best and going to hardest that he could to try to get a solution. It’s nice having 100% hindsight, but the fact is that if anyone else had been president, he would not have dealt with the overwhelming situation as conscientiously as PDJT did, respecting the rights of states and individuals.
I think that is the best assessment I have read so far that explains some of PDJT’s handling of covid and reflects some of my own thoughts.
I do feel a bit of trepidation at the fact that he did not pivot more when the reports of the dangers of the vax were becoming widespread. IMO, his best response would have been that he never ordered nor expected for the pharma companies as well as the FDA, NIH and CDC to so completely fail and abrogate their mission of safety to the public.
Keep in mind that by the time the poison-jab was widely known for what it was, he was out of office and fighting for his legal “life.” He no longer had any authority to do more than he has.
He continues to declare that after election he will remove funding from any institution that mandates either jabs or masks.
I am happy enough with that. I expect he knows the full truth but has too many other plates spinning in the air to tackle it at this time. Plates like potential nuclear war and alien invasion.
He is doing what a good physician should. First Do No (More) Harm.
Actually, I would rather have Democrats than RINOs. I would rather be stabbed from the front than from the back. And they both definitely have their knives out.
If the Uniparty could function as a single party rule, of just Democrats, they would,…
Truth is, the RINOS are an ESSENTIAL protection fir the Dems, which is why we see the Dems jump to protect the RINOS, whenever they are threatened.
Hence, I too will refuse to vote for a RINO, and if that means a Dem gets in, so be it.
They create the false illusion of choice of voting for the Uniparty-R or Uniparty-D candidate, so that either way Uniparty wins,…and WE LOSE.
Knowing what we know now, does anyone REALLY think WEwould have been better off, if either McStain or Romney had won?
Because he understands how the system works.
The State R party, as a sort of franchisee of the RNC, detirmines by a variety of means, who wins elections.
They direct big $”donations” from the RNC, and the Senate and House Campaign committees (controlled by McConnell and McCarthy) as well as big donor PACS, they also have put in place the County Recorders and Election board members (RINO in “red” painted states, D in blue) that count the ballots.
In 2022, 97% of PDJT’s endorsed candidates, who HAD support, won.
3%, who ran as true MAGA Candidates, lost.
Because the State R parties worked to insure they would lose, in a concerted National anti-MAGA campaign.
Majewski, DePerno, Mastrianno, Masters, Walker, and many down ticket candidates that staked their campaign on running AS MAGA.
ALL lost. Don’t blame “Trump” blame all of us who refuse to heed the call of the Trump endorsed precinctstrategy, suit up and get involved in the battle to wrest control of the State R parties away from the Rinos, and instead cry and blame “Trump”.
What kind of message does it send for the Resident to use a social media app that is banned from all federal devices? How dumb can you be?
I agree. And yet almost no one points that out. TT is banned on federal devices, but Biden runs a campaign on it. Doh!
Cuz he’s got to reach the brainwashed youth vote- the 18-24 somethings who can’t disconnect themselves from Tik Tok. YOu know, the people the CCP knows more about than those individuals know about themselves.
“……….but Biden runs a campaign on it. Doh!”
Since it’s on TT, does he start each sound byte with “and now, a message from our sponsor”?
That would be Pfizer.
We know what the silent f stands for.
They just want to rub our noses in the “we do what we want” …just try to stop them. There is no shame, pride, honor or ethics with them, and they know they can and WILL get away with whatever they are doing because the RINO side of the UniParty is right there with them.
#obamagate
What a great time I have watching and listening to President Trump. There’s nobody like him! HE WANTS TO RESTORE OUR COUNTRY. Let’s do everything we can to help him make that happen. MAGA 2024 and beyond!!
Excellent posting by Sundance.
PDJT is a PATRIOT as is Sundance for pointing it out.
Great Interview…..President Trump
Your Game is on and The American People are seeing it
Rally at Madison Square Garden would be epic
Great venue, but pretty small. Think BIG. Citi Field in Queens (Trump’s hometown) and Yankee Stadium in the Bronx.
Liberal heads will explode. What FUN.
President Trump acts as a litmus test for each persons politics and intent.
Citizens respond in either a pro American or anti-American way to him just as litmus paper reveals a compound to be either base or acidic. People cannot seem to help themselves in their response. The response is deeper than politics and breaks through the media false portrayal when people are exposed to him directly.
The corrupt politicians and socialists see their shortcomings in the reflection and the focus he brings to any topic.
God bless and protect this man.
“a woman who feels remarkably self-important given her irrelevance. “
Every single day, in every interaction with government, social, businesses, I run head-on into people like her.
They make six figures, hold some empty position yet have been handed an inordinate level of responsibility. Yet are absent of even the most basic critical thinking, reason, moral judgement and conscience.
May Trump bring a bringing a wrecking ball to the empty headed parasites, elites and political class, all the own and all they control.
We who can build, work, and create wealth have no use for them
“If not Trump then who?”
Answer: “No one!”
“This framework was popularized by academic Joseph Campbell’s mythology book The Hero with a Thousand Faces. Here are the original three stages of the hero’s journey as coined by Campbell:
Sound familiar.
Imagine you’re a world renowned multi-billionaire, beautiful wife and family, living the dream. You’re only requirement of your time is what want it to be. Then one day you decide to make a change, not turning the running of your company over to your very able kids, because you’re ready to golf your life away.
But, then you have a Eureka moment, “I know, I’ll run for President!” …sound of needle scratching across a record and full stop, the heavens open up and breathlessly ask, “Huh, do what!” Then in an incredulous chorus asked; “Why?!”
“Well, because I want to Make America Great Again!”
The heavens now fully roused fire back, “As opposed to what?” the celestial beings follow with a qualifier; “We thought the USA had succumbed to evil. What makes you think you can change that?”
Our hero answers: “I’ve had a front row seat to all manner of evil. I know where the bones are buried. I simply want what I’ve worked for, for fifty years to be available to all Americans without regard to color or creed, and I love my country”.
In an echo of conversation with the heavenly body, the crux of the conversation; “Who is this boy scout”? Then asked; “You do realize when you go to war with demons that a target will be on you and your family into perpetuity and if you lose they won’t stop until they kill you and your family.”
Then this noble man responds: “If not me then who, if not now, then when?” After a contemplative short pause; “As you know I’m a flawed man. I’ve made mistakes and I recovered from these mistakes to become stronger. In my journey I understand now that none of my success would be possible without the USA and the providence of God”.
The Celestial Hosts now roused with the courage and righteousness of this man that even the great horn of Gabriel blew in celebration and a booming voice: “So let it be so!”
“And the rest as they say is history”.
☝️☝️☝️
Yes, Joseph Campbell’s analysis of heroic myths rings true because heroic myths are based upon the reality of human behavior!
The brave person must first resolve that s/he has the bravery, persistence, confidence, introspection, and creativity needed for the quest.
Persistence is the first key: it may be unconsciously instinctive to be brave one time, but can you be brave again and again and again? Persistence, because Evil is persistent, Evil never dies, and the brave person must stay brave throughout the quest.
And the hero or heroine, who must go on a quest will have doubts, will be opposed, will be defeated, but the quest must continue, and Confidence becomes important after those doubts, after those defeats, so that success is attained.
Confidence depends upon the quality of introspection, of self-examination, so that the gears of the personality are working together, for if the gear of bravery falters, so does everything else. But that gear is linked inextricably to all the others.
And to rise from the dust after a defeat, to return from exile after a defeat, the heroic person must be Creative, must have the ability to learn why the defeat occurred, and to fashion new ideas to find a new path toward success.
I have left out the most important quality of the hero/heroine for the end: Love. The heroic person loves other people, loves them so much that s/he will sacrifice everything, will forfeit his/her own life for the sake of the quest, for the sake of a duty which must be done.
It has not been sufficiently appreciated that, every time President TRUMP appears in public, he is literally putting his life on the line. We Conservatives perhaps realize it, but dislike thinking about it. Yet it is the truth.
And so, “The Myth of the Hero” is no myth, a term often misused to mean unreality: in fact, heroes and heroines indeed follow a pattern based upon real people who have been heroic, especially over a long period of time.
And so, we still have years to go in order to Make America Great Again: wrecking something can take a fraction of a second these days. Building or re-building needs much more time!
Because there is a last thing necessary for the quest of the hero to be successful: support of friends and believers in the quest!
WE are that support and must remain supportive and must have all those qualities listed above in our own daily quests!
Ulysses/Odysseus had his sailors, Joan of Arc had an army, and Jesus had his disciples and believers.
We have President TRUMP and obviously his quest is doomed without us!
No doubt.
We the People are imperative for the success for either good or evil. The illusion, or as Sundance says, the “pretending” of a false majority is slipping away with these frauds/demons, the proverbial curtain has been pulled back and the great and powerful wizard is again exposed as a fraud.
With everyday that passes the reality of this dire place these demons want to take us as a nation and a world is becoming apparent and in my opinion will usher in; “The Return Act: the Hero returns in triumph.” and the Great Awakening.
God be will us in this perilous journey!
President Trump, tried and true!
The term”hero” like much of our language, has become do distorted,…”Sports hero” for instance.
What, did that Quarterback making a million $/year rescue someone from a burning building?
To clarify we have all seen news stories of the “HEROIC” dog, that woke and so saved the family, whose house had caught fire while they were sleeping.
Mind you, I LOVE dogs, but I always look, and never find a crucial detail in such stories; did the house have a ‘doggie door’?
If it did, if the dog COULD have saved himself at any time, but stayedand risked its life to wake the family, well then it is indeed a hero.
If not, it was simply scting out of self interest; wake my masters so they can let me out and I don’t burn up.
As you point out, PDJT IS being heroic, as he IS risking everything, and doesn’t HAVE to.
He has a gilded “doggie door” he COULD use.
The Power of Myth was Joseph Campbell’s companion book to his PBS interview broadcast in 1988.
There was this most ‘powerful’ image on June 16, 2015 when he descended the golden escalator at Trump Tower…slipping the bounds of Myth and into the real world.
“…and strode down along the pinnacles of Olympos, angered in his heart, carrying across his shoulders the bow and the hooded quiver.”
Homer, Iliad 1. 43 ff
WOW!! What a great read Stan H! thank you, thank you!!
Undecided voters support Trump after town hall: He had ‘strength’
My Success will be my Revenge is the slogan he needs to put all over the place.
MY SUCCESS IS MY REVENGE. Spot on.
I’d rephrase it to “TRUMP – America’s Success is My Revenge” but otherwise agree.
I’m sorry, the lady proclaiming he won’t be able to do it everywhere (deport illegals) because NY and California won’t let them. I’m so sick and tired of this defeatist thinking.
Well, then, easy. You file charges of treason on every single person who interferes in the deportation of illegal aliens. And then arrest them. It’s called the law if it’s the Governor, too bad, so sad because they are not, as the liberals have been saying over and over: above the law. No one is above the law.
There is always some little defeatist in any group and she is basically one and most likely an undercover KAREN. All they ever say is I or We CAN’T do something.
Well I hate tell her , CAN’T died when my father was born.
He was the red pill I and millions of Americans needed very badly. Praise God for him!
President Trump is a righteous and straightforward honest man. He is a MAN. He is exactly what this country needs to survive.
In case no one has noticed, politicians are what has caused this mess in our country.
I am sorry for what might offend some people but, lawyer politicians are exactly what has destroyed the judicial branch and legislature. The Executive branch of our government needs the MAN, Donald J Trump to rip out the cancer killing this country.
Politicians want money and power. President Trump wants a beautiful country back that is the United States of America.
Politicians want nothing more than Bank of America.
This is why we need a true King. The fools keep claiming Trump will be a dictator… if only.
We need the intelligence and the backbone of President Trump and a slew of warriors who are not afraid to do the fighting. Have no doubt there will be fighting from these communists when President Trump is sworn in.
I’ve been watching the speakers at CPAC while reading here. There was just a gentleman from the Heritage Foundation who delved very effectively into the question of WHY the blob hates PDJT.
He addressed the dictator nonsense thus: None of The Powers That (Should Not) Be actually fear PDJT will be a dictator.
What they fear is that what he does in office will (again) work.
As a child, Donald J. Trump attended Marble Collegiate Church with his parents, Fred and Mary, whose Pastor & author was Norman Vincent Peale — best known for popularizing the concept of “positive thinking,” especially through his best-selling book “The Power of Positive Thinking.”
Donald and his two sisters, Maryanne and Elizabeth, were married there. Trump has repeatedly praised Peale and cited him as a formative influence.
Scott Adams, creator of Dilbert (and via whom I first learned this), said that Peale’s writing influenced him to achieve success as well.
It was one of his best interviews yet.
“There has never been a moment in his tenure within the universe of politics, when I have felt regret for my advocacy or support. I simply see this guy as the most inspired and favored presentation of a leader in our time. It is remarkable.”

Totally true
‘Exclusive — Leaked Confidential Leftist Document Details Plot to Pressure Republicans into Protecting Biden’s Radical Green Energy Agenda’
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2024/02/21/exclusive-leaked-confidential-leftist-document-details-plot-to-pressure-republicans-into-protecting-bidens-radical-green-energy-agenda/
This agenda calls for influencing 10% of the GOP in DC to support Biden’s IRA. Considering the electeds we have now they should have no problem doing so.
The left has endless funding for its campaigns. We are drowned out in the media but hopefully their efforts will die on the vine. Truth cuts thru their chatter.
Suppose you totally OWN a mainstream media,…that increasingly nobody listens to or believes,…
Do you have any influence?
Nice!
What if they gave a news show and nobody tuned in?
God Bless Donald Trump 🙏
I include this man in my prayers every morning.
Praise the Lord!
Two Very Powerful Pictures at the end of Your Article , Sundance 🇺🇲
Thank you, Sundance.
I wholeheartedly agree with you! I am with President Trump 100%. The harder the Democrats and RINOs fight to force him out, the stronger my stance becomes.
I think there is something in the American psyche that knows the truth when we hear it, and we want it plain, unvarnished and frank. We get that with President Trump.
We believe in Truth, Justice and the American Way and right now as I see it, the communists, leftist marxists and political hyena’s have ravaged our government, destroyed our social structure and they are intent on the destruction of US as a people.
I’m mad as hell, and President Trump is my leader!
Right on!

100% of people who don’t understand banking, business, negotiating, or the world in general are sure Trump committed fraud.
100% of people who understand banking, business, negotiating, and the world in general saw “business as usual” and no fraud.
If they say otherwise, they are lying. And somewhat obviously.
I don’t know a thing about business and I don’t see him committing fraud.
Well – Scott improves all the time but he has a looong way to go still in understanding…
Amen.
God is our greatest Hope, through Jesus.
God is working through Mr. Trump and for that I am grateful for.
Praying that more follow in his footsteps; once his duty has been done.
Perfect words Sundance, thank you so much! I am excited to watch this interview as many were talking about how fabulous it was.
President Trump calls it like it is.
Comments in the very first sentence about Laura Ingraham are uncalled for and wrong….and then you go on to talk about what a great job President Trump did, answering important questions asked by Laura Ingraham. It’s not only Democrats who make foolish insults!!!
Bless your heart
That’s Sundance’s opinion. If it bothers you that much, go read somewhere else!
(I don’t get these people who show up to complain about what the site owner writes. Do you, Ronbet, show up at someone’s house and complain about the decor or the food being served?)
Pathetic!
Sunlight is the best disinfectant. Sundance pours buckets of it here daily and the attempted usurpers cannot stand it.
Keep shining sunlight on them. It will keep the blood suckers away, and light a path for others.
No, too busy squatting to crap in the punchbowl.
Is that you, Laura?
Laura talked plenty smack about PDJT after Jan 6. That’s my beef with her.
He ignores it and is gentlemanly towards her. That’s who he is.
I don’t have to like her and I don’t. That’s who I am.
(By the way I did, once, back in the days when I had not yet tumbled to RINO fraud. As sundance says – you can’t unsee it, once you have.)
I have been a fan of Mr. Trump being POTUS since the early 80’s . At the time nothing made sense to me about how the US was shipping good paying manufacturing jobs overseas and to Mexico, how billions of dollars were being spent on foreign wars / foreign aid and how our country was going in debt.
Then I happen to be flipping through channels on the TV, I ended up tuning into the Larry King show and here was this guy making total sense about everything, saying things no one else would say, very much unlike the double talk and lies coming out of DC. I thought to myself before it was even brought up by Larry King that this is the right man for the job, this is the guy we need in the WH.
Now here we are 40 years later and Trump is still right about everything.
Thanks for that blast from the past! He was right then, and is right now.
YW
AND, yea, Trump has my vote….again this time!!!!
Sense of humor? “I’ll smile when we complete the task.”
Laura will go to her next wine and cheese soire and be told what a deep inciteful question that was.
And then Pelosi will pat her on the back for a job well done. And McCarthy, McConnell, Graham, Turner, and Thune will follow suit. Ingrahm will smile and say to herself- I made it.
That was a grand and subtle troll by the Master. She was asking him to perform a trick for him. He turned the tables on her.
I suspect the plan might have been to play the tape back with cronies and have some wined-up fun pretending he isn’t actually funny. He can be utterly hilarious – but on his own terms, not hers…
President Trump is the beacon of light for a path forward for America. I do believe in divine intervention. Trump has been gifted to us to win back the Republic. It is up to us to fight like hell to assist him in winning for freedom’s sake!
God bless, Donald Trump.
God bless, Sundance.
God bless America!
God bless freedom loving patriots everywhere!
🙏♥️🇺🇲🦁👑🇺🇲♥️🙏
Trump’s honesty is what terrifies the left. They cannot afford people learning what is really going on in our government.
I’ve often wondered too why Ingraham is being pushed on us like this. Much like Megyn Kelly was. Since it does not feel organic, like the whole Megyn Kelly thing didn’t feel organic, I suspect Ingraham’s fall will be just as spectacular.
FYI….I went to the Jan 6th event [ended up being the most surreal day of my life]. At the beginning of the day, as the crowd gathered and grew, and Trump gave his speech, I never felt more patriotic in my life. Everyone there that day, who were all like-minded, simply wanted the election process to be truly investigated. Unfortunately, we are still waiting for it to occur. All that changed when I walked up to the Capitol building – I stood there for 30 minutes trying to make sense of everything that I was seeing….Long story short – Based on everything I witnessed that day – The ONLY thing that makes any sense – The breach of our Capitol building was Simply “ALLOWED” to happen! There were 2 distinct different protests that day. Protest #1 – At the front of the Capitol – Police were actively confronting & much more aggressive towards the crowd [Most all that video has been released – They only released video that supported their preconceived FALSE narrative of that day]…..FYI- I stayed far away from protest #1 – I didn’t realize what happened in that area until I saw the video on TV the next day. I witnessed protest #2 at the side & back of the Capitol building – Police standing down…At the side & back of the building – ALLOWING people to walk up a ramp onto the balcony area – the same balcony that people were climbing the walls out front – and at the back of the Capitol – police were letting people into the building [I thought about going in – but I had no idea what I would do once inside – probably would have walked around took pictures and left – just like most of those who did go in that day ] …..They need to release ALL of the video from the area I was in that day – Their preconcieved FALSE narritive would fall apart if they would release ALL the video from that day. The Truth of that day is Slowly coming to the light of day….That day will haunt me the rest of my life….Almost wish I never went – I now realize how corrupt our government and media have become!
I know what you mean about feeling patriotic. DH and I rode a bus from southwest Florida to DC to attend a Tea Party event at the Capitol in August or September 2010. It was a wonderful feeling to be surrounded by thousands who loved America like we do.
I was there for a very large one – Capitol police told us 1.5 million – it was on September 12, 2009. I remember meeting Byron York…
It was exactly as people now describe the good part of Jan 6 before the actual insurrectionists (feebies and assorted provacateurs) started Biden’s coup. In 2009 there was great feeling, wonderful people everywhere, loads of fellowship (as sundance likes to call it)…
…and afterwards not a speck of trash that wasn’t picked up properly.
This was well worth the watch. I do not watch fox. I will watch clips. I have nothing but disdain for most of the talk heads on fox. Top of that list is sean hannity, then laura ingraham. I have disliked her since the Tea Party…both ann coulter fit your description (a woman/women who feels remarkably self-important given her/their irrelevance.) There are more.
Trump is a very unique man, person. Such people are few and far between throughout history. Thank you for posting the clip. I may never have watched it. Blessings
He is all that you say SD. Yet if he doesn’t have the House and maybe the Senate on his side, to be majority Repub/Maga, he will be hog tied and unable to do anything and probably impeached immediately with the Senate voting to oust him which is why the VP pick is so very importantt. It will be a repeat of the last few weeks of his first term. The emphasis now has to be getting him the help he will need to make changes. The enemy is already into plan C, D, and E preparing to block him from any governing at all if he should win. The big cheats will be in the other elections, not the Presidential one.
I don’t think Trump can be hog tied. He will still have the military to “encourage “ things to go the “right” way. Especially during a continuing national emergency.
Cjzak: “The enemy is already into plan C, D, and E preparing to block him from any governing at all if he should win. The big cheats will be in the other elections, not the Presidential one.”
The Democrats have already said out loud that it is the Congress — not the courts or the state governments or even the voters — which has ultimate power to decide who is or is not qualified to be president.
They have said openly their plan is to regain control of the House of Representatives and not certify the 2024 presidential election in January 2025 if Donald Trump is the winner. And so the big steal will be happening in all races for all offices, just like in Arizona in 2022.
To certify an election, you have to show that there was no fraud. (Not just “feel like” or “believe” there was none.) It is not possible to show there was no fraud, since we have machines you aren’t allowed to see the code for, mail-in ballots that have no chain of custody, and reporting bottlenecked through one private company (Edison https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/11/draft-breaking-exclusive-election-night-2020-edison-reporting-system-reported-bizarre-county-results-compared-state-results/).
Unless we get transparent elections this year, it would be perfectly justifiable not to certify them. BUT WHAT ABOUT EVERYONE ELSE IN GOVERNMENT WHO GOT “ELECTED” THROUGH A SYSTEM THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CERTIFY? If they refuse to certify, they admit their own elections were uncertifiable and they are illegitimately in Congress.
Actually, your comment contains at least one factual error, which appears to have been copied verbatim from the gateway pundit story.
Was true AT ONE TIME, but is NOT true, any longer.
“,…since we have machines you aren’t allowed to see the code for,..”
NOT TRUE, any more since a Court case “broke the seals”. The Az audit was NOT able to examine the machine logs, called”slogs” however by 2022, a public interest group in az WAS able to sue and get access to the slogs, which they turned over to Kari Lakes experts to examine.
Its miles of code, but every thing done with the machines is recorded in its slogs, and they can’t be erased.
They HAD a legal roadblock they succesfully used, for 30+ years, to prevent access (“proprietary info”) but in 2020, that was eliminated.
Hence, if they “flip” or add votes in the machines, we WILL be able to prove it, so like 2000 mules, these methods (the Dominion algorythm, a.k.a. “drop and roll”have been retired, and won’t be used in 2024.
Glad to hear it – I was generalizing from Colorado, where Tina Peters DID prove (see Mesa Report 3 https://causeofamerica.org/Documents/Custom/f364aeeb-b1d5-4f93-88d3-ab968d39b6b2) they changed votes by making a backup of the machines (as was her job to do!) before Dominion came in and deleted things, so our SOS Her Majesty Jena Griswold made sure nobody would ever get that close to machines again.
In Colorado the clerks, much less taxpayers, are really cut off from knowing anything about the machines. Clerks literally do not have the right to check up on integrity of the elections they are legally required to ensure.
Arizona and Colorado both have good reason to claim to be the capitol of election fraud, unfortunately!
So, the Dems and their Republicant allies will be guilty of insurrection, as they attempt to block the certification of electors, and probably disrupting a government proceedure, snd can all be thrown into the DC Gulag!
Theres a goose/gander thing, comes to mind.
