For Donald Trump, our 45th and 47th president, his forthcoming administration, and in-coming conservatives at the state and local level, despite all of the miles and hours that they have logged, there is no time for a breather. From past history, present rumblings, and early indicators, President Trump and GOP elected officials will be facing extreme resistance from now through January… and beyond.

Multiple Negative Forces at Play

Patsies, puppets, or easily programmed individuals could be summoned to attempt another assassination, and one Iranian plot has already been foiled. Democrat politicians including delusional types such as Rep. Jamie Raskin will initiate whatever they can to impede Donald Trump's second ascension to the White House. 

At every opportunity CNN and MSNBC panel members are stepping the vicious labeling of Trump and company as Nazis, racists, homophobes, etc. Rank and file Democrats brainwashed for years and, in many cases, decades buy into all this and have already formed their resistance groups, even though Trump's policies will benefit them just like everyone else in the nation. 

While most of America seeks to compose itself following a most contentious election season, antisocial, anti-democratic, Antifa types are gearing up for violence in scores of our major cities as inauguration day approaches, all lavishly funded by belligerent billionaires who believe that they have the supreme right to interfere in the affairs of state, domestically and abroad, as do entrenched, deep swamp bureaucrats who must quickly be removed from office.

The mainstream press will continue to extract phrases coming from Donald Trump, twist them 180 degrees and then to fabricate hoaxes, lies, and false narratives. Each person that Trump selects for his cabinet, White House staff, and administration will potentially face slander and libel. Elon Musk and RFK Jr. are prime targets.

The Rule of Law Must Prevail

When the Biden administration was installed four years ago, the Leftists couldn’t hide what they felt should happen. AOC, among others, said that Trump supporters needed to go to re-education camps. Others claimed that Republicans had committed a variety of crimes such as questioning the election itself – a 1st Amendment right. 

To his great merit, Donald Trump has said he has no desire to get even with those who have sought to incarcerate him, fine him, impede his candidacy, trample on his privacy, and demean his character 24/7, 365, for nine years. 

To uphold the rule of law, however, and to quash the double standard in America, his administration must proceed in indicting, prosecuting, and hopefully incarcerating those who committed major crimes, including treason, against the U.S. The DOJ and the FBI need to be the focal points. Merrick Garland, Christopher Wray, and their henchmen must be held accountable.

A Legal Baseline is Imperative

We have to revisit Hillary Clinton and the 31,830 subpoenaed emails that she deleted, for which she never spent one minute of remorse or in federal prison. We need to examine the activities of Alejandro Mayorkas and company who are perpetrating the greatest border invasion our country has ever endured.

Donald Trump is magnanimous but he must send the not-okay sign to Leftist treachery. A legal baseline must be re-established now, if only to stave off future treachery.

Meanwhile, Trump will immediately strengthen our border and our immigration policies. He will end the war between Ukraine and Russia, decrease the hostilities in the Middle East, issue Iran an ultimatum which they will not shirk, and shore up American interests elsewhere around the globe. 

Relative Peace and Certain Prosperity

He will bring home legions of our military forces, reinvigorate the American energy supply industry, and eventually abolish the Department of Education. In particular, he will quash the teaching of critical race theory to our children, expose those who indoctrinate our youngest Americans, keep biological men out of women's sports, and so much more. 

The Left will resist all of the above. The press will lie about what's occurring and continue to label him in ludicrous ways. Trump and his administration, however, will prevail. Even those among us who are not in the political arena, can lend support: influencing our friends, writing letters to the editor, correcting those who have made gross exaggerations, and vigorously calling out those who have intentionally mis-characterized our leaders.

So, let us take a deep breath and recognize that there is much more work to be done.

Forever Vigilant

The Left’s predisposition for massive disruption isn't going to end soon. Hence, we must be vigilant, maintain an even keel, and recognize that every little bit that we can do for the Trump Administration is for the ultimate good. 

The great news is, we have the capability and we are up for the tasks.
