The Game Plan
Sundance @TheLastRefuge2
“Trump will not find perfect solutions. He will find OPTIMAL solutions. We cannot ask for more.
Trump has stood by and watched Perfect murder Good for 8 years – maybe longer. He’s not gonna do it. He’s going to deliver the best outcome possible, and he’s not waiting for us to feel relaxed about it.
Best presidency ever! Just hang on. More winning is coming, but a lot of people are going to scream that it’s all over at EVERY turn.
The best way through this is to define viewpoints, not people, because people will shift as they change position and velocity in Trump gravity.
Bash the neocon, warmonger, and dopey globalist positions – not the people who are going to hold them one moment and come loose from them later.
Trump is Jupiter moving through the asteroid belt. He is going to pull people into his orbit.
A few will get slung off into space, but most will come along for the ride of their lives.
I am ON the Trump Train for good, even if I scream that I want off and can’t take it. In the end, I only want to scream “TOO MUCH WINNING!!!”

Here is the game plan that the forces against Trump will be using for the foreseeable future.
They will attempt to get you to make the perfect the enemy of the good.
Be it the freedom clowns and spending, the immigration hawks with H1B visas, the peace doves with timing, the cultural warriors with total bans of DEI/CRT, the neocons with war fighting, or the swamp dwellers with draining the swamp.
All of them will attempt to get you to believe on whatever issue is the issue of the day that it doesn’t go far enough or do enough. They will try to make you think that some sub issue of that issue is more important and should be handled first, that since the issue hasn’t been handled yet it won’t be, that we can’t do more than one thing, that so and so is a plant to stop the draining of the swamp, or that because it wasn’t 100% Trump lied. On every single issue, one or more groups will attempt this strategy.
You can’t allow them that power over you. If Trump secures the border and deports 2 million, don’t allow them to reduce that good by them saying well he didn’t deport 2.5 million, so he failed or lied.
You can’t allow them to use the perfect to void out the good in the coming months.
They will try. They already have with the CR and the H1b visa debates. It works, that is why they use it. You have to keep it in the front of your head on everything about to occur that half a loaf or hopefully in most cases 7/8ths a loaf is better than no loaf.
Do not allow them to gaslight you into thinking the good is the enemy of the perfect.
In the real world, most things are never perfect, but if we try real hard, we can get plenty of good accomplished in the coming 4 years.
Day 98 of the 2nd year of the 2nd term of this very stable genius. History is being made in the kingdoms of this world in the year of our Lord 2026.
The purpose and goals of President Trump are plainly visible by his actions and consistent: He is for the benefit first of the common PEOPLE of this country, then of the PEOPLE in the rest of the world. It is validating, even to our battered conservative skepticism.
The methods of his leadership are amazing. I still don’t get HOW he does it, or HOW he is able to get so much momentum going, but every day the momentum is growing. Everyone and every organization has their eyes opened every day — just by watching him. Even those who hate him, are biased against him, and want to see him gone — cannot ignore him. He lives rent free in their head, and they come around to seeing the universal principles by which he is operating. He hammers actions based on truth from one direction, then another, and they cannot mount an organized opposition against him.
President Trump is transparent in his words and actions. He is consistent in what he says, what he does, and what he asks/demands of others. His promises are bold and he keeps them like no other president has. He continues to make massive, nearly overnight changes, not only in our country, but in the world. It is amazing that he is able to accomplish so much when there are so many snakes in the grass. This second term, he is weeding them out faster and choosing like-minded servants who multiply his effectiveness. No U.S. president has ever faced so much organized resistance and treason than President Trump
He has chosen to use his intellect and every skill he has to do what is right. He has tremendous faith that he can make a difference in this world. He has a confidence and courage such that he doesn’t care what others think, yet a humility to know he has to do it with the help of like minded people. Those people are the “common” people, and he ridicules those who think they are not common. He does not show humility before men, but his actions show humility before God.
He believes people are basically good. He believes that God is real. He believes that healthy people are happy people, and they need to be able to create wealth freely for their labor, and have the freedom to spend their money on what is good for them.
He believes the United States, with its Constitutional Republic, is the best environment in the world to enable and give opportunity for people to be happy and prosperous.
He believes that we can be a light for the world, but we must demand that the rest of the world respect us and our right to Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.
He believes the enemy of our country are the stupid, greedy American people who have been selfishly taking advantage of this country; who betrayed the trust and obedience of its people; and who diverted the people’s wealth for their own selfish gain, at the expense of the principles of this country. He’s not going to allow that anymore. He is not afraid to call out our enemies.
He has cultivated and focused the family of MAGA. Identifying those people whose goodness, industriousness, trust, and obedience have been taken advantage of and abused. He has opened our eyes to this abuse, and to the rights of freedom and self determination that have been quietly stolen from us.
He has rekindled the same healthy distrust held by our founders of government and men with too much power. He has recultivated the desire to reclaim our freedoms and rights, and is empowering us with a hope and pathway to reclaim our spiritual and economic freedom.
He wants the US to be a light of hope on the hill for all people. He will negotiate win/win agreements with those nations and countries who respect us; who respect the principles and intent of our Constitution. If you do not respect us, however, we are not going to let you take advantage of our goodness, or share in our wealth at our expense. If you as a nation are treating your people badly, you are going to be treated less favorably by us, until you show that you value your people as much as we value ours. He believes that nations who treat their people well will also be good economic neighbors with us.
He is convincing those who are very wealthy (most of whom truly earned their money), that the best economic soil in which to build wealth is in a constitutional republic, which supports the ability of the common man to earn wealth in proportion to his efforts. The economic engine of the United States is the human spirit freed to enjoy the fruits of honest labor, and that engine has more natural and raw horsepower than any other governed economy.
The Trump Train seems to be remarkably aligned with universal principles of Truth, which reflect the will and design of our Creator, and are the best standard by which we should live. These same principles were what our country’s founders used to declare independence, and framed into the Constitution of this nation.
Our founders believed that a nation should preserve the right and freedom of an individual to seek, understand, and live by God’s principles. They believed that free individuals working together in humility would make a stronger nation than a government which dictates its will on the people. President Trump professes and seeks to lead and restore this nation back to these same principles.
These principles resonate deeply within all human beings, down to our DNA in every cell, in our spirits, and produce fruit that “miraculously” multiplies. Because we follow universal principles, we see the snowballing acceleration of momentum. Lord please bring your power and might in the daily working of this sacred Nation you gave us.

If they refuse? The DOJ will surge to DISSOLVE and DISMISS THE CASE! 🔥
“Put simply, your lawsuit puts the lives of the President, his family, and his staff at grave risk.”

JUST IN: In late February 2026, two weeks into the Iran war, Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan picked up a phone in Abu Dhabi and called Benjamin Netanyahu. Iran had fired 563 missiles and 2,256 drones at the United Arab Emirates, more than any other country in the region, more than Israel itself.
Emirati air defenses were saturated. MBZ asked for help. Netanyahu ordered the Israel Defense Forces to deliver a complete Iron Dome battery, dozens of interceptors, and several dozen IDF operators to UAE soil. The system was operating in Abu Dhabi within days. It intercepted dozens of Iranian missiles. Axios reported yesterday afternoon that it remains in country.
This is the first time in the seventy-seven year history of the State of Israel that the IDF has deployed an active combat air defense system to defend an Arab capital. It is the first time the Iron Dome has been used outside Israel or the United States since it became operational in 2011.
The Tamir interceptor, designed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems to protect Israeli population centers from rocket fire originating in Gaza and southern Lebanon, was built in 2007 to defend Sderot from Hamas Qassam rockets. It was deployed in 2026 to defend Abu Dhabi from Iranian Shahed drones and Fattah ballistic missiles. There is no precedent for this.

The market has spoken. The building’s value is now less than $1. Leftists destroy everything they touch.
Lone Star bought the $340M Goldman Sachs note & trust deed on the property for $139M. Lone Star initiated non-judicial foreclosure proceedings. At the trustee’s sale, no outside bidders appeared. Lone Star credit-bid its $139M, and received title to the building.
So, bottom line, the building is worth somewhere between $0 and $139M.
Congratulations to the Democrats for turning $320 million into less than nothing.
I wonder if this is the second half of of ‘first slowly, then all of a sudden.’
The clock begins when Nance isn’t on this side of the daisies. The gangsta moll has been an effective speaker for her party. And Speaker Johnson – at the very least – was able to move quickly on the Big Beautiful Bill and the Save Act (which is collecting dust because it can’t muster five senators to provide us plankton with a fairer voting system).

Link to U.S. Supreme Court to listen to the audio which is schedule to hear two arguments on Monday, at 10:00 a.m. east coast time:
https://www.supremecourt.gov/
the first case is Chatrie vs United States. Background, this is a Fourth Amendment question, the use of geo-fencing to obtain information from people’s cell phones, this particular case the govt wanted cell phone info within 150 meters of a bank robbery in Georgia. There are two questions as follows
“Whether the execution of the geofence warrant violated the Fourth Amendment” and
“Whether the exclusionary rule should apply to the evidence derived from the geofence warrant.”
The second case is Monsanto Co. vs Durnell. This is a case on the federal insecticide, fungicide and rodenticide act (“FIFRA”) seeking to hold Monsanto liable for not warning users that glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, causes cancer. The question before the court is
“Whether FIFRA preempts a state-law failure to warn claim where EPA has repeatedly concluded that the warning is not reqired and the warning cannot be added to a product without EPA approval.”
(got kicked off the site in the middle of posting the first one on tomorrow’s hearings at the court, but seems replying to initial comment doesn’t hijack the link to this site so may be posting the Tuesday and Wednesday hearing links as initial and then reply to the initial comment; one of these days will find the cause of this glitch.)

Watching President Trump’s two year run of “significant win, after significant win, after significant win” with no effective counterpunches from the globalist democrats / RINOs is not going unnoticed by Americans of all political stripes.
They are starting to get a real sense of a once-in-a-lifetime movement of the political tectonic plates under the continental USA. Americans love winners and hate losers. To quote General Patton: “Americans love a winner. Americans will not tolerate a loser. Americans despise cowards. Americans play to win all of the time.”
Four months into an administration’s second year normally starts bringing out the “lame-duck” prognosticators. Not so in 2026 …. in fact, President Trump is set to become the focus of America’s attention through 2028.
So, what is causing such a sea-change?
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!

Excerpt:
At 23, I’ve Already Seen 3 Assassination Attempts on My President
I turned 23 just weeks ago. In that short life, my entire political awakening has been pure chaos: lies, deceit, and demonic forces hell-bent on destroying the man who shook up Washington.
I’m angry.
Older folks talk about “political harmony.” I’ve never known it. I’ve hid being conservative in school to avoid being targeted. I watched Charlie get brutally executed in front of the world. I lived under Newsom’s COVID tyranny, the nonstop demagoguery, moral rot, and pure evil that wants people like me and you DEAD.

These losers are fed a diet of pure bullshit by the Democrat Left & are taught that to hate & kill their perceived enemies is somehow virtuous.
Just like Muslim children are taught to kill Jews
