...”We must have AT LEAST as much determination to recover our Free Constitutional Republic as they do to abolish it, us, and the U.S.”.....

I think Trump just made that quite clear that we do.

Trump, yes. But as an example to the rest of us, not a vicarious substitute.

WE THE PEOPLE must gab hold of the vision and goal of recovery of our Free Constitutional Republic with as much determination as the Left is determined to destroy it.

We cannot and should not vicariously rely on one man to do what WE THE PEOPLE MUST do.

Each of us must do our little bit to stand for constitutional freedom and live our lives accordingly. Trump will be gone in seven years. Only with the help of the Divine Providence of Almighty God will we win by doing what MUST be done to recover our blessed country.

Great speech.

Our biggest ‘win’ was picking Donald J Trump to be our President.

Twitter changed it’s rules and begins enforcing them today, December 18th. The rules mean that Trump can have his account twitter deleted for comments posted by others on his his account defined as “hate speech.”
I think he’s testing the networks willingness to convey content he deems “urgent information.” They won’t cover him so maybe he has to declare content “urgent” to communicate directly with the public.

The last time he had an urgent press release,the press showed up ( It was North Korean missile) and Trump force fed them proof that the Dems had refused to attend the day’s meeting on key budget issues. The dem positions at the table had placemarkers (names of those to attend) and there sat repubs only with Trump saying what a shame it was that Dems refuse to meet on such important matters. THEN Trump had a general say, “a few words” about the NK missile launch before wrapping up the meeting. And in so doing, he wrapped up the media - the public got to see what Trump wanted them to see (Dem non-participation).

This time I think the MSM will stay away. Which reminds me, many areas including mine (KA) had that television “Urgent message” drill a few months ago. I do think it will come down to him using that as the MSM refuses to cover “urgent announcements” or other direct communication from the president. Can you imagine how the MSM would have contorted every word and sentence he uttered if he hadn’t had Twitter all this time to speak to the public directly?

I also think his Twitter account will probably be suspended based on the “new rules” and that he will probably move over to new, conservative friendly “Gab” service instead. That website and direct access via the web - until the geeks figure out how to shut that down.
