This is what leadership looks like.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

So far, IMHO Trump is doing a phenomenal job.

I think a lot due to him not just trying to win the job, but preparing extensively in restoring America.

It's called patriotism, a refreshing change,

Why some would not see that is hard to understand.

I think Trump's wheels have been turning for the past 4 years and knows what needs to be done, and yes he is concentrating extensively on MAGA.

I really questioned whether he really learned anything from the first go around.

So far it looks like he has. I hope his momentum continues. We'll see how much of this lasts or gets reversed when the empire strikes back, and it will. Hopefully they are following the processes by the letter of the law so that there is no standing to reverse it. We'll see.

The worst case is he gets rid of a bunch of federal employees and then 6 months from now they get reinstated by the courts with back pay - all for doing nothing.

Grenell snuck a horse's head in Maduro's bed while he slept.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Well, that'd be six months they weren't making the country FUBAR. Still a win.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
