The New and Improved Trump Terrifies the Democrats

During his impressive victory speech following his historic Super Tuesday showing, former President Donald J. Trump made two points of critical importance, while demonstrating a tactic which surely struck fear into the hearts of Democratic leaders and liberal pundits across our nation.

The first of the two critical points being that our nation is under invasion.  Quite possibly the greatest invasion in the history of our world.  An invasion sanctioned and facilitated first, by President Joe Biden and now, by those around him who seemingly control his every action and reaction.

An invasion, as former President Trump said Tuesday night, which could in reality be as many as 15 million people.  A number that is the equivalent of the entire population of multiple nations around the world flooding across our open borders over the course of the last three years.    

To be sure, most are simply people looking for a better life.  But a sovereign nation without clearly defined and guarded borders will soon cease to be sovereign or a nation.  Those who want to enter the United States in search of a better life for themselves and their children must do so legally.  If not, they will help to bring about the destruction of the “dream” they chased when they fled their own countries. 

While most of that upwards of 15 million people may be “good,” hundreds of thousands are most certainly not.  Many come from criminal or terrorist organizations.

How do Biden and his enablers sleep at night knowing that thanks entirely to their actions, tens of thousands of young Americans are being killed every year by a drug manufactured in China and transported across our southern border?  How will they sleep at night if one of the many terrorist cells they willingly allowed into our nation kills thousands of innocent Americans in a flash of the unthinkable?

At the height of his remarks last night, former President Trump made a simple statement which rings true to tens of millions of Americans.  That being: “If we lose this election, we lose our country.” 

The former president was not exaggerating in the least.  While Biden may now be feeble, cognitively challenged, and corrupt, a case can still be made that he does not “hate” his country.  The same cannot be said for many from the radical and woke far left who seek to take over the Democratic Party.  They truly “hate” our nation.

Many are activists and anarchists who literally want to see America burn and crumble before their eyes.  It is they who will sweep into power should Biden – or his replacement – win in November.  It is they who will ensure the destruction of our nation.

As former President Trump raised those critically important points, he did so in a calm, reasoned, empathetic, unifying, and statesman-like manner.  He spoke in a cadence and a way guaranteed to transcend the barriers and divisions created by team Biden and the far-left activists and anarchists over the last number of years.  He deliberately spoke...to be heard. 

And that decision by the former president – speaking off the top of his head with no teleprompter – terrifies the Biden White House, the Democratic leadership, the liberal pundits, and the far-left activists.  It terrifies them because they know that voice will not only reach tens of millions of committed Trump supporters, but tens of millions of Americans from every walk of life let down or disenfranchised by the failed policies of the Democratic Party and the Biden White House.

They know that if former President Trump articulates the many successes he had in his first administration while outlining how he hopes to build upon them in his second in that calm and statesman-like manner, that he will win in a landslide.

Former President Trump learned a lot during his four years in the White House and quite possibly more during the last three years.  Lessons which can save a nation.
