Not only did this newcomer speak bluntly, eschewing politically correct tap-dancing around issues, but he spoke forcefully about the venal nature of politics and those who use it for personal aggrandizement. He didn’t use lofty rhetoric and eloquent phrases like his predecessor. Instead, he spoke in a language rarely heard in a country weaned on Pied Piper-style oratory. He merely told the truth in plain words that would resonate with the proletariat, the people who made this country the envy of the world. The voters were thrilled to finally have a leader who uses common sense, rather than a wet finger in the air before making decisions.
However, those who have been entrenched in their private little fiefdoms in the nation’s capital began to wonder how they were going to deal with this brilliant maverick who had captured the imagination of millions of Americans who had given up on government.
Democrats hate him with a ferocious intensity that comes from seeing their plans for party dominance collapse under the weight of this new spirit of patriotism. Republicans hate him for beating all their veteran politicians and for proving how ineffective they’ve been at improving the lives of their constituents. After all, if neither party can win with the customary bromides, spewing from the mouths of the usual suspects, they must have lost touch with the people who once lapped up their verbal vacuity, believing that it was the only pabulum on the shelf. Why would voters reject prominent names like Jeb Bush, Lindsey Graham, John Kasich, et al., political veterans all, in favor of a neophyte?
Those questions continue to haunt the inhabitants of that sewer on the Potomac. They don’t appreciate being forced out of the darkness, where greedy deals are made and concern for the people gets thrown under the grinding wheels of political expediency. These are not exactly profiles in courage. With rare exceptions, these are people who arrived at the “shining city upon a hill” with the intention of making a career, and if that meant going along to get along, it was fine with them. They weren’t about to step out of their comfort zones by addressing controversial topics that might make them unpopular during the next plebiscite.
Hence, when an intrepid leader emerges and abandons caution in favor of keeping his campaign promises, he’s treated like an anomaly. The fact that he’s fighting for the principles voters elected him to fight for is lost on those who got elected with one thought in mind: to feather their own nests.
President Trump is reminiscent of the Founding Fathers – the type of statesmen who surmounts incredible odds to build the greatest country in the world. Now, after many years of being led by a man who apologized for our country, we have a leader working indefatigably to make America great again!
And like the Founding Fathers...put his life, family, reputation and business on the line...accompanied by threats, ridicule and lies from an entrenched opposition.
This may have been posted already, however I find it relevant here.
READ the memo on globalism and Islamic infiltration that led McMaster to fire its author from NSC
AUGUST 11, 2017 11:01 AM BY ROBERT SPENCER
NSC staffer Rich Higgins wrote the memo below. When he read it, National Security Advisor H. R. McMaster fired him. McMaster should be questioned about this. Did he think he memo was false? Is he part of those trying to subvert Trump’s pro-American agenda? Certainly his many statements denying the Islamic character of Islamic terrorism would suggest so. McMaster must be fired if Trump is going to have any chance of pursuing his agenda.
POTUS & POLITICAL WARFARE
May 2017
BACKGROUND. The Trump administration is suffering under withering information campaigns designed to first undermine, then de legitimize and ultimately remove the President. Possibly confusing these attacks with an elevated interplay of otherwise normal D.C. partisan infighting and adversarial media relations, the White House response to these campaigns reflects a political advocacy mindset that it is intensely reactive, severely under-inclusive and dangerously inadequate to the threat. If action is not taken to re-scope and respond to these hostile campaigns very soon, the administration risks implosion and subsequent early departure from the White House.
This is not politics as usual but rather political warfare at an unprecedented level that is openly engaged in the direct targeting of a seated president through manipulation of the news cycle. It must be recognized on its own terms so that immediate action can be taken. At its core, these campaigns run on multiple lines of effort, serve as the non-violent line of effort of a wider movement, and execute political warfare agendas that reflect cultural Marxist outcomes. The campaigns operate through narratives.

Long read but well worth it.
Like the a founders, Trump ascended to the Presidency on the basis of his life accomplishments. Most politicians nowadays have few accomplishments outside government. They grew up in the swamp, Trump grew up draining swamps.
Remember rust never sleeps...... these cretans will never stop and it seems that every now and them we get someone like trump and Reagan who will clean up their decades of destruction only to find them back in the seat and destroying what they have accomplished. Lets not ever go to sleep again
