Four Things Trump Could Do To Win Back My Support
Scott Morefield

Posted: Jul 19, 2021 12:01 AM

My column week before last was quite critical of former President Donald Trump’s role in the creation and propagation of Covidstan. It was, in my opinion, tough but fair, notwithstanding the barrage of (expected) criticism it received from a majority of commenters. I don’t care. For all the good he did - and he did do a LOT of good - there’s a part of me that will never forgive him for the part he played in the madness of the past year and a half as well as the insanity that’s still doubtless to come thanks to the noxious, liberty-killing precedents we set.

Even as he continues to boast about how vaccines and blocking visitors from China early-on somehow ‘saved’ us from “1917 Spanish flu numbers,” or something (insert eyeroll here), the former president continues to undermine everything Team Reality has stood for from the beginning of this ridiculous charade. This was no Spanish flu. Not even close, and sorry, I’m not about to pretend we dodged some sort of massive bullet just to prop up Donald Trump’s overly inflated ego.

Hence, as of now, I will not be supporting the former president to win another GOP presidential nomination, and I have solid reason to believe there are plenty of others who won’t as well, for similar reasons. And before you go there, this is not a NeverTrump ‘muh principles’ and ‘but but but, mean tweets!’ argument, but rather an acknowledgement of the extraordinary damage those who implemented, gave credence to, and enforced useless COVID restrictions have done to our country and the entire world.

I conclude this writer while presenting an argument of why he would support Trump, it is really a summary of why he will not. 

Frankly, as a once avid Trump supporter, I resent the utter lie that he fulfilled his promises.  The most important promises, he failed miserably.  And while his rhetoric gave forth a promise, that promise was largely tied to enhancing jobs for Americans.  He promised the end of the H1-b Visa Program DAY ONE.  Months into his presidency, he sat with the tech billionaire oligarchs, and he INCREASED H1-B Visa recipients.  Huge betrayal.  And if anyone of substance in the Republican Party had run against him, I would have voted for that individual.  And last but not least, his promise to build the wall just did not happen.  Now, that was not entirely his fault, for his swamp dwelling Republicans did not really support him. 

The H1-b Visa Program end would help white collar, and the wall would help blue collar workers.  And yes, all the other things he did in fact contributed to that end, but the meat and potatoes went wanting.  I doubt Ron DeSantis will run against Trump.  He will bide his time for 2028. 

And if Trump is the general election candidate, I will vote for him, but I think there is a large element of our society that are just worn out from him, which makes him vulnerable.  Look, we have a man dead from the neck up, who virtually did not campaign and did not verbalize what his intentions were, and he got elected.  And last but not least, Trump, who fires everyone for the slightest of reason kept Dr Fauci around to lead folks blindly.  Fauci should be drawn and quartered for the death of millions in the world that made the mistake of listening to the putz!

I'm afraid without ending electronic voting it just does not matter who the Republicans put up.  The Democommies have proven they can cheat and get away with it, just like Putin has been doing for twenty years in Russia.

“Trump did a ‘lot of good’ but I won’t be voting for him again.” Got it.

Yeah.  A concrete support of a President should not be so unbalanced that it can be easily toppled.

I'm sure Trump can do without the support of lunkheads like Scot Morefield.

If the Lincoln lunkheads cannot see what they have wrought over the past six months, no amount of Trump "concessions" will change their minds.  Average Americans numbering in the tens of millions will be storming the polling places with pitchforks to vote GOP in November 2022 and November 2024, whether these moderates concede the accomplishments of the Trump administration or not.  Frankly, these folks have done more damage to America than all the left wing looters and woke spenders put together.  The "moderate" Republicans were the enablers of this nonsense.  The border, CRT, defund police, inflation -- all of it -- is on them.

Sure none of us got everything we wanted. Yes there were several major initiatives left incompleted. But is it so difficult to look at Trumps record in relation to the last half dozen administrations? In that light it was pretty damn good.

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Not true.  Only 51 percent of the people are doing the opposite of what common sense tells them. The rest of us are standing by, incredulous at the absurdity of it all.
