Did Trump Really Save America From Socialism?
American Spectator ^ | Steve Baldwin

Posted on 08/17/2018 4:17:20 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

Americans need to understand that the shocking refusal by a major political party to accept the results of the last election and the onslaught of verbal, legal, and physical assaults the Democrats have engendered, are not specific to Donald Trump. In other words, it is now clear plans were made by Obama to exploit federal power during his presidency to give the Democrats control of our nation — perpetually. It really didn’t matter if Trump was the GOP nominee or not. In other words, the chaos we are witnessing today would not have been much different had, for example, Ted Cruz won the presidency.

Sure, the issues and the phony narratives would be different but the intensity of the attacks would be the same and the illegal politicizing of Federal agencies would probably still have occurred. There is little doubt the Dems would have created phony narratives customized for whoever the nominee was, similar to how they customized the Russian collusion hoax for Trump. This is what the establishment Republicans and the Never-Trumpers don’t understand. Long before Trump’s candidacy, total war was declared on the GOP when the Obama administration strategically created the conditions to make its progressive revolution a permanent one. Or so they thought.

First, let’s dump the naivety. Obama has been fully in charge of both the pre- and post- election attacks on Trump. He is the leader of the resistance. The idea that his appointees at the FBI, DOJ, IRS, CIA, State Department, etc., would risk committing multiple felonies without direction from him or his henchman is simply not believable as many long-time political leaders and observers have stated.

Obama’s fingerprints can be found everywhere in the widening scandal.

They [the NeverTrumpers] are doing tremendous harm to the country.

I'm not sure whether they are doing harm to the country or just killing their own careers.

I hope you’re right, Rooster! Kristol is up to his neck in this criminal enterprise.

Joe Six Pack is SO on board the Trump Train, and he's not even trying to be deep, just real.

THAT is the manifestation of a guy you could have a beer with (if he drank) being in charge and having powerful people agree with him.

The Denocrat party is dead, (as I predicted in November 2016), and America is now struggling with the unification of her people.

In 1776, we read that only about a third of the population understood clearly and agreed with revolution.

Today, with the internet especially, more factual knowledge can be transmitted to more people in their underwear that will mobilize and not only support President Trump, but will network their thoughts and opinions to their family, friends and neighbors.

There are still some TV and video outlets that also transmit true information.

Couple all of that with what appears to be a slow returning to religious practice and The USA IS becoming great again.

“America is great because she is good. If America ceases to be good, America will cease to be great.”

He’s made a start, but it’s way too early to tell just how it’s all going to play out.

NEVER Cruz.He is NOT eligible as he is NOT a natural born citizen! Either obey the Constitution or throw it in the trash. ONE gross error (Obama) is ENOUGH!

“In the end, only the 2A will save us from tyranny.”

And Israel. If we lose the 2A and Israel loses a war in the ME, what we have left is a clear shot by the Islamists and Communists to split the world in two and gear up for the final battle of world domination, as both claim in their manifestos.

The folks that voted for him definitely have slowed the move towards socialism, but we've been moving that direction since FDR... now, it's only a matter of time.

I disagree that Obama was EVER in charge- he’s way too stupid. The puppet masters still include him because he is part of the resistance, but if all things pointed to him they would drop him like a ton of bricks.

They need to avoid that right now, at all costs, because it puts a lie to everything they’ve done and exposes it all- or else he’d be gone already.

There never would have been a President Cruz or anyone else from the GOP. None of them had the energy, the strategy or the courage to defeat Clinton. What Trump truly saved us from was a 2nd full blown Clinton kleptocracy.

“What you want is of no importance

What the president wants is what counts”

Disagree here. He was voted in because of what we chose to want him to do that he said he would do. And so far has.

Trump is the accumulation of everything all the politicians in Washington aren’t. He has no affiliations, no dependencies, cannot be intimidated, cannot be blackmailed, and really doesn’t give a $hit what the opposition does or says. He does what he and his staff thinks is needed, and so far, has been doing a job for us that hasn’t been paralleled by any president we have ever had. And all he’s really doing is just plain common sense, nothing more.

What I want is important, even if just to me. But I helped vote him in because of what he is willing to do.

If I modify a little phrase I heard years ago, it might match up, “It’s not what Trump will do for you, It’s what together we can do for mankind.”

A major article with some crucial points - such as:

“bama’s goal was to weaponize his agencies so as to create the conditions to make it impossible for any Republican to win the presidency again. The circumstantial evidence over the last ten years strongly suggests that Obama was determined to make the 2016 election the last real free election, meaning one in which legal citizens elected the president. Based on his actions during his presidency, it is difficult to not conclude otherwise.”

Give him a more conservative Congress in the midterm elections this year and a second term as President. That’s the only way to find out how much he can accomplish.

Sadly I’d say he has only given us a respite.

Most Millenials seem totally onboard with the idea. And a few more of us go to that great Tea Party in the Sky every day. Eventually we’ll reach a demographic tipping point and Socialism will be voted in.

By clamping down on immigration Trump is forcing the date forward a bit.

Some 40 million people get their incomes from government in various ways, and a very large portion of them are sure to vote. You won’t see big spending cuts where they are most needed during President Trump’s first term.
