The intention here is crystal clear to those who do not pretend.  Robert F Kennedy Jr’s son, release a recording of a conversation between President Trump and RFK Jr.  The intent of the leak was to stop RFK Jr from forming an alliance of any interest with the Donald Trump.

The roots of the Kennedy clan tree are doing what the Kennedy clan does, regardless of what the RFK Jr branch of the tree wants to do; remember this.

According to most media reports, the conversation took place on Monday the first day of the RNC convention, prior to President Trump announcing JD Vance as his vice-presidential running mate.   Further reports indicate President Trump and RFK Jr also met in Milwaukee later on.

WASHINGTON – […] Trump spoke with Kennedy before he announced Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) as his running mate during Day 1 of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. In the leaked call, Trump could be heard on speakerphone saying he agrees with some of Kennedy’s stances on vaccines.

Trump could also be heard saying he would love for the long-shot candidate to “do something,” adding it would be “so good” for Kennedy. Trump also told him “we’re going to win,” according to the footage. (link)

You can see the video and hear the audio in this clip below, as shared by The Hill (prompted):

Apparently, this recorded conversation was leaked by the Kennedy clan after RFK JR and President Trump met in person.  A really low-brow and underhanded move by the people around RFK Jr.

POLITICO – Former President Donald Trump met this morning in Milwaukee with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to discuss the possibility of the independent candidate endorsing the Republican nominee, according to multiple people familiar with the huddle.

Asked about the meeting and a potential endorsement, Kennedy denied that he plans to drop out of the race. (more)

The intention of the leak is to ensure there is no national “coming together” between Donald Trump and Robert F Kennedy Jr.  Therein lies the core of what many people will pretend not to accept.  The tribalism of clans is generational and forms the root of their identity.

Journalist Salena Zito was in the stands on Saturday because she was pre-scheduled to interview President Trump on the return trip to Bedminster, NJ. Obviously that interview never took place. However, today on the flight to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, President Trump talked exclusively to Mrs. Zito, who writes for the Washington Examiner.

A reflective President Trump seemingly begins to absorb how fortunate he was to have the protection of God in a split second.

Salena Zito – Former President Donald Trump has completely rewritten his convention speech in light of the assassination attempt against him on Saturday and will call on Thursday for a new effort at national unity.

[…] “The speech I was going to give on Thursday was going to be a humdinger,” he said, “Had this not happened, this would’ve been one of the most incredible speeches” aimed mostly at the policies of President Joe Biden. “Honestly, it’s going to be a whole different speech now.”

[…] Trump said people all across the country from different walks of life and different political views have called him, and he noted that he was saved from death because he turned from the crowd to look at a screen showing data he was using in his speech.

“That reality is just setting in,” he said. “I rarely look away from the crowd. Had I not done that in that moment, well, we would not be talking today, would we?”

Many of us have attended MAGA rallies to hear President Trump and experience the patriotic unity of our assembly.  The tragedy that unfolded yesterday lends a person to say, “there but for the grace of God.”…

The deceased shooting victim has been identified as Corey Comperatore (50), a retired fire chief from Pennsylvania who died while shielding his daughters from the barrage of gunfire.  A GoFundMe has been authorized by President Trump [SEE HERE] to collect money for the Comperatore family and for the families of other victims wounded in the horrific attack.

( VIA MSM) – The victim killed at the rally, Corey Comperatore, died a hero while protecting his family, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro said at a news conference Sunday. The governor said Comperatore’s wife told him that Comperatore “dove on his family.”

First Lady Melania Trump releases a statement following the assassination attempt against the life of her husband, U.S. President Donald Trump.

“A monster who recognized my husband as an inhuman political machine attempted to ring out Donald’s passion – his laughter, ingenuity, love of music and inspiration,” Melania writes.  “This morning, ascend above the hate, the vitriol, and the simple-minded ideas that ignite violence,” she added.

In the immediate aftermath of being shot in the ear, ultimately not knowing his physical disposition at the time, and from deep within the core instinctive nature of President Donald John Trump, his first reaction was to raise a fist and shout, “FIGHT – FIGHT – FIGHT“!

…Deserve This!

.

Dear God, we come before You to seek Your protection.  Strengthen President Donald John Trump with the power of Your righteous might. Dress him in Your armor so that he can stand firm against the schemes of the evil that seeks his downfall. We know his struggle, like ours, is not simply against flesh and blood; but against evil manifest, against the powers that corrupt man, against the world forces of those who succumb to darkness, against spiritual forces of wickedness and malevolence. 

You are President Trump’s keeper, O Lord. You are the shade on his right hand. Protect him from all forms of evil and keep his soul safe. We beg Your might to guard his voice, his going out, his coming in and his steadfast determination to protect his flock.

Lord God, we thank You for Your outcome today, and humbly ask for Your angels to continue standing guard in his path.  We plead for Your perfect wing to continue forming the perfect shield.  From this moment and forever until the end of our capacity, we pray for Your protection. In Jesus’ name.

Amen.

I’m glad I waited before sharing the following analysis because I’m not as concerned today as I was when I originally read the Guardian article.   Yesterday, The Guardian reported that Donald Trump Jr would be introducing the VP nominee at the RNC convention.  According to them, that could indicate a strong likelihood of JD Vance as the nominee. That would be horrible.

However, what’s really happening is that Don Jr’s speech and intro is really just talking before the VP nominee makes his/her remarks.  The VP will be announced days before the convention itself; so, it’s a sequencing thing.  Maybe not JD Vance, and that’s a good thing.

There is, however, an unfortunate aspect to the articles predictions that is currently surfacing all over the media.

The top 3 finalists, according to a bazillion clickbait articles, are JD Vance, Marco Rubio and Doug Burgum.  I have tried to stay away from the VP discussion because, well, it’s basically a clickbait conversation.  Also, because if Donald Trump has not made up his mind months ago, then we are in more trouble than just the worry of a VP who might impede swamp draining.

If I have any accurate arrows of faith or pragmatic hope left in my quiver, then I am correct in thinking that Donald Trump made this decision a long time ago, and the Vice President nominee has long known exactly what the plan is.  If my “begin with the end in mind” thinking is incorrect; well, then we’re in bigger trouble than 99% of MAGA Americans can fathom.

Having said that, I hope none of the aforementioned names are accurate, because the very specific and current attributes we need for what is going to be a 15-year generational effort in our Constitutional Republic are not held by either Vance, Burgum or certainly not Rubio.

Every consideration of the VP selection MUST pass through the prism of knowing who the malevolent enemy we are facing truly is, the Intelligence Community, the Fourth Branch of Government.

Play this at the opening of the RNC convention!

“Now that Former President Trump is the Republican nominee for President in 2024, it’s time for Republicans, including those who doubt him or even can’t stand him, to get behind him. The times demand it.”

Presented with a certain amount of reserved, perhaps pragmatic & cautious optimism.

I have made no secret of my preferred candidate to run with President Trump as his vice-president nominee.  For a myriad of well thought out reasons, I have long held the hope that Dr. Ben Carson would be the running mate for President Donald Trump. {Background Here} Considering the ramifications, my thought process is not some random, esoteric thought, clickbait discussion or academic exercise.

Having been extremely deep in the political weeds, which some powerful and influential people have described as, “you’re nuts with your endeavors,” with a great deal of risk and with a tremendous about of fact-based reconnaissance into the nature of the ideological enemy – in combination with thousands of hours of private thought and prayer – I truly believe the #1 characteristic we need, in this exceptionally important moment in history, is a man (or woman) of incredible character, loyalty, virtue, and most importantly, unwavering faith.

This is not just a critical national election; we are in a spiritual battle against a very determined force of global malevolence, dare I even say visible evil.

That said, President Trump has indicated we will soon know the answer.
