Donald Trump's Secret Admirers
American Thinker ^ | December 2,2017 | Dan Truitt

Posted on 12/02/2017 10:15:12 AM PST by Hojczyk

It is indicative of how completely the left has taken over our major public organs and institutions, including the press, the entertainment industry, and Higher Ed, that many are embarrassed to admit to others the secret we carry around in our hearts like a treasure -- we absolutely love Donald Trump.

The other day I watched him lumber across the White House lawn, approaching the press, a hulking, scowling snapping turtle of a man. He was coming at the press from stage left, alternately looking away at something in the distance he evidently thought was of greater interest than the ink-stained wretches who snap at his heels like a pack of chihuahuas, then shifting gimlet eyes to his enemies in the Fourth Estate.

Watching Trump, I thought of the contrast between him and the svelte, smooth, athletically trim stride of the previous president, you know, the guy who just spent eight years doubling our national debt, setting the Middle East on fire, handcuffing our businesses with excessive regulations, siccing the IRS on his political opponents, and exacerbating racial tensions which had been relaxing on their own for decades and which culminated in his own election, forever putting the lie to the notion that America is an institutionally racist country.

I watched Trump, who walked like something out of Gorillas in the Mist, and I laughed. I laughed loudly, knowing that he was about to put the kabosh on some snooty, self-important journalist who is just as clueless as to how to handle the man as he was on that day in the summer of 2015 when he announced his run for president.

Man, this guy is fun.

I also love our President, and feel unsafe telling most people. I live in California, so .... Thank all of you Freepers for your wonderful supportive posts about President Trump. It means so much to know we are many.
I hope the President or his aides read this forum and know we are with him, love his policies, and his style, and his determination. MAGA

I think that he, or someone in his inner circle, does read our forum. I was reading something on FR recently with comments that were very much like what was being tweeted by PDJT. I hope he knows how much support he has from forums like ours which are made up of informed, patriotic Americans...as well as non-Americans who respect us.

Snapping turtles are fearsome creatures. They can break bones with their beaks. Their necks extend a relatively long ways, quickly. We have to work to keep the dog away from them because the stupid dog totally underestimates the turtle.

As to the Gorillas In the Mist reference, Trump is definitely a silverback.

The author nails our POTUS, IMO.

Yes, I do believe DJT loves this country. And yes, that is probably why they hate him.

I really hope he knows. I got a Twitter account just so I could up-vote him every morning and every evening. It’s just one vote, but it’s the only way I can think of to show support. I think the Left is continually trying to demoralize him — I doubt they can, but water can wear away even stone — so I want him to know that he is very much appreciated.

Geez and I thought only I had a secret “Love”. Yes, he is someone we can relate to...especially those of us who are very blunt and “calls it as we sees it”. I just love his hubris, brilliance, acumen and all that but I especially love that the people who have worked for him still think he is absolutely a fine man!! And it is wonderful that a “fine” man doesn’t have to be perfect.

MAGA and onward to Jerusalem!

That’s right. He’s not perfect, and that’s probably WHY I like him. He just is what he is.

>>>I know this article is meant to be complimentary, but do not describe him as a turtle.<<<

He’s a Ninja Turtle, and Batman.

I love the way he drives leftists absolutely bonkers. And they are so predictable in their outrage. Trump really seems to enjoy poking them with a stick.
