And Now for a Painful 2024 Decision That Republicans Will Celebrate for a Generation

With the Georgia U.S. Senate race finally decided, it now will be time for true conservatives to begin appraising honestly and realistically what must be done in 2024 to make America great again.
There can be no question whatsoever but that the Trump MAGA agenda is the one and only agenda that must be pursued. None of this Jeb! stuff. No mass amnesties for illegal immigrants. No compromises or hesitations to reopening American energy sources to full-speed drilling and hydraulic fracturing ahead. Building the Keystone XL pipeline and many more oil and gas pipelines. No more draining the National Petroleum Reserve. No slackening on the war on crime. No mealy-mouthing about Antifa and the Black Lives Matter corruption and corporate-extortion racket. No acceptance of racial preferences. No reparations. Education based on traditional family values and excluding teaching homosexuality, lesbianism, gender-change surgery, abortion on demand in the last trimester, and other sex-crazed concepts to kids. No wokeism or liberated critical studies in the military or anywhere else. An airtight southern border. The appointment of real, true conservative judges and justices, not the Souter–Blackmun liberals selected by too many Republicans who preceded Trump. An honest capitalist economy, not fed by funny money doled out in the trillions to politically favored leftist recipients. Lower taxes. Reducing government regulations and even reversing many of them.
Donald Trump reimagined and heroically actualized an honest, brave, bold conservative agenda that decades of Republican presidents and failed GOP candidates promised, but none delivered. He made promises, and he kept them. And fast. None of the “Read My Lips” betrayals. In barely his first month in office, Trump earned all but a place on Mount Rushmore as he:
Started the process for approving the Keystone and Dakota Access pipelines
Revoked U.S. support for the Obama–Kerry Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), requiring that new deals be bilateral, not multilateral
Demanded that all politically appointed U.S. ambassadors resign at once
Signed an executive order making federal agencies interpret Obamacare regulations in the most flexible, consumer-friendly, and broad way possible, setting the stage for repeal
Ordered a moratorium on new federal regulation
Decided to meet British Prime Minister Theresa May to deepen trade bonds with the U.K. in the wake of Brexit
Ordered the Commerce Department to formulate “made in America” rules for all steel used in pipeline construction
Ordered a streamlined and expedited process for approval of infrastructure projects
Ordered an end to U.S. aid to any international agency that promotes or provides abortion services
Froze grant-giving by the federal EPA
Began the process of building the Wall
Launched an effort to cut off funds to “sanctuary cities”
Restricted immigration from countries associated with exporting terrorism
Froze non-military government hiring
Brought jobs and corporations back to America or inspired them to remain (Carrier, General Motors, Ford, Boeing, etc.)
And the list went on. He brought about a remarkable pro-growth economy. Unemployment reached its lowest-ever numbers for most minority groups, and all Americans benefited from the burst of new jobs. Wages increased faster and higher than inflation. Retirement funds burst with growth. Terror leaders abroad were eliminated, but America avoided engaging in any new military adventures; he kept us out of war. He named rock-solid conservative judges and justices. He truly started making America great again.
As 2024 already beckons — turning the White House, taking back the Senate, increasing the GOP House majority — the Trump MAGA agenda points the way. There can be no other way.
