“As long as you are going to be thinking anyway, think big.â€
―Donald Trump

Mind if I grin a moment?
I can’t help but get my giggle on when I’m reminded that Donald Trump won the election.
Except for the man himself, who would have believed it?
That’s not to say his victory was easy-peasy.
Getting shot may have actually been one of his smaller trials.
Up front, allow me to insert a note of personal thanks to the Democrat Party.
President Trump owes much of his triumph to these modern-day Pharisees and their propensity to confuse advocacy for ethics; enabling for love; lying for virtue; spending for achieving; bureaucracy for governance; anger for maturity; violation for immigration; habit for creativity; and men for women.
Most importantly, gratitude is merited for their most epic character reveal — the way they (meaning the left, the mainstream media, Hollywood, the misguided, and the manipulated) hid the catastrophically impaired state of the supreme leader of the free world.
This last one will go down as one of the most-astounding acts of fraud in our nation’s history.
For a moment, think about the gravity of this grand conspiracy.
Done?
Well, now let’s talk some about how the man himself – aided by his often-conflicted supporters – made the win happen.
For starters, he didn’t give up.
Though a normal mortal like you or I would have crumbled under the constant legal, financial and personal pressures, Trump pressed forward and prevailed.
Next time you do like me and twist and shout about his immaturity, impulsivity, self-absorption, and vanity, remember that a normal person could not remotely have achieved what he has. Plowing through the unfathomable obstacles of a corrupted/toxic American political system was superhero stuff.
Truth also be known; Trump has benefitted from embarrassing himself.
His behavior during his first term of service, and immediately thereafter, was a low-water mark that hyper-armed his enemies.
One gets the impression he’s not up for a negative redo.
This time around he’s hit the ground running. Of equal importance, he’s running toward what he promised — reducing our government, border violations, crime, deep-state corruptions, waste, foreign entanglements, unfair trade realities, political lawfare and woke silliness such as DEI, men in women’s sports, abandoning the rule-of-law, and a culture that can’t get by without getting high.
May one suggest that Trump also benefits from testicular fortitude?
Pleasing others, praise and popularity matter to him like they do to everyone else, but not near so much as most assume. Who else do you know more willing to offend, disappoint, trigger or incite those with whom he disagrees?
To our growing detriment, the “American People†— a nauseatingly overused term at best – expects to be pandered to.
We depend on our politicians to tell us what we want to hear; make us feel like we want to feel; and promise us what we want to get.
What that does is make sure we get the kinds of sociopathic politicians we’re earning — and that should scare the diddly out of all of us.
“What’s in it for me,†does not a nation make.
This time Trump gave us a chance to start thinking of something besides ourselves – something important – like saving America from the culture-vultures busily picking our nation apart.
It remains to be seen how things will land during Trump’s term of service.
He’s inherited a mess – a bigger mess than most people know.
A publication put out by the Philadelphia Church of God called the “Philadelphia Triumph,†has been speaking to the subject at hand since Trump lost to Biden in 2020.
From day one it’s been their take that Trump would return, prevail over his phalanx of enemies and be re-elected.
From day one.
Uniquely, the Philadelphia Triumph folks grounded their predictions on an overlooked source — Biblical prophecy.
It’s been their contention that the Bible tells us that at a point in time a leader would emerge to rescue America from itself.
It’s worth noting that this same publication indicates that Trump will only take us so far before the hammer comes down on our wickedness.
Is it true? No one knows, for that same Bible tells us that predicting the end times is a not within our powers.
Predicting the approach of the end times may be, as the prophesies of the Bible are there for a reason.
If these good folks are right, God had a hand in the triumphs of Donald Trump.
His amazing accomplishment in getting to this point makes a strong argument for divine intervention.
That intervention does not mean he can single-handedly alter the course of an America that has traded in its moral compass.
It would be my suggestion that Trump’s triumph doesn’t mean we’ve earned him — or a presumed pass on a difficult destiny.
As for all the predictable chatter from the Democrat party, the left-minded and our corrupted media, what else might we expect?
As you listen and observe, imagine walking in on a surgeon in the middle of the blood and gore of a heart-bypass procedure.
Would you hysterically exclaim, “He’s killing the patient†or calmly note you sometimes have to make a mess to fix a mess?
Trump is attempting a multi-bypass surgery on a very sick patient.
