What We Must Do Now to Help Trump Stay Alive Until November

It was tried once, and — Praise God — it failed … 

For anyone who ever said they wanted to see a miracle before coming into a relationship with our all-powerful Lord … what occurred on July 13th in Pennsylvania should fit the bill.

But, for the rest of us who immediately saw the undeniable hand of God at work in the events surrounding the attempted assassination of our President. This question remains is … what’s next?

Alex Jones is predicting that the deep state’s desperation is presently at such peak levels that he virtually guarantees more attempts to take President Trump out are sure to occur between now and November 5th.

Other sources for this proposition may also exist for those who may not find Mr. Jones to be their cup of tea.

For example, take Victoria Nuland. Only two days prior to Trump’s arrival in Pennsylvania, this infamous deep-state operative appeared in a video in which she seemed to be confidently predicting that Trump would not be our next President

In connection with her speculation that Vladimir Putin might quite possibly have expectations that Trump will be America’s next President, she said the following:

“I don’t think Donald Trump is going to be President, so if that’s what Putin’s betting on, he’s going to get an unhappy surprise, I think.” 

Leaving the rest of us to ask, what does she know that we don’t? 

The most probable answer is … probably quite a bit

Remember, Ms. Nuland is the only recently retired Biden Administration Under Secretary of State. Some repute her unstated duties to have been to make color revolutions and foreign assassinations come to pass whenever and wherever some of her deep-state compatriots within our federal government thought it might be in America’s best interests. 

Like many on the dark side seem inclined to do, is she predicting in advance the evil she already knows will soon be forthcoming?

Perhaps. 

One might recall that coupled with her retirement earlier this year; she gave a speech in which — with a considerable smirk on her face — she predicted only days before the terrorist attack on Crocus City Hall in Moscow, that such terror attacks — asymmetric warfare — would be happening in Russia that would ensure that “Putin would face some ‘nasty surprises’ … this year.” 

Predicated upon that alone, her apparent certainty that Trump will not be our next President should be an alarm, if not chilling, to us!

But then, add to this the additional fact that it was her husband, Robert Kagan, who late last year posted an infamous editorial in The Washington Post titled: A Trump Dictatorship is Increasingly Inevitable. We Should Stop Pretendingin which he seemed to not too subtly — albeit circuitously — suggest that America would be better off if President Trump — like Caesar — were to be assassinated. 

This should be enough to leave the rest of us fully committed to doing two things immediately:

  1. Pray daily for the continued safety of President Trump and his entire family; and

  2. Do everything in our power to find out exactly who it was that informed the amateur assassin in advance that the roof from which he ultimately shot the President would be neither covered nor secured by the Secret Service while Trump spoke out in the open only 164 yards away. 

We should avoid assuming that his decision to climb up on that particular roof with a rifle in hand at the exact time Trump was to speak was simply the fortuitous act of a 20-year-old amateur would-be assassin operating on his own.

Someone — knowing this kid wanted to take a shot at the President — had to have helped him in advance by giving the him the guidance and information he needed to try to pull it off without obstruction from a location that not only made the assassination possible but that was known in advance by somebody that it would not be covered or secured by the Secret Service or local law enforcement.

And, even more importantly, this logical conclusion should lead one next to an even more frightening likelihood: whoever that accomplice was, he or she almost certainly had to have been someone operating within Trump’s security apparatus.

If that person is not identified and interrogated quickly, we may never know who actually initiated and orchestrated last Saturday’s assassination attempt. Whereas, if they are identified, it is they who might be able to put us on the trail of others who were involved, which, in turn, could very well lead us back to the involvement of people like Victoria Nuland … or Merrick Garland … or Christopher Wray … or even Dr. Jill and her stepson Hunter, or perhaps even her husband.

However, if that information is not forthcoming, Alex Jones could very well be proven correct about another attempt on Trump’s life soon taking place. If not stopped now, they — whoever they may be — will, for reasons of their own that motivated their first attempt, only be likely to try again … 

Of course, some might reasonably assume Trump is already aware of this. But if so, he must also know he can’t put a stop to this treasonous conspiracy without our help. 

There is another fact of which Trump most likely is also certain: if the efforts to uncover the identity of Matthew Crook’s accomplice before it’s too late are left in the hands of the current DOJ and FBI, the longevity of Trump’s future life-span will most certainly remain, at the very best, a crap-shoot, if for no other reason than were recently pointed out by Joy Pullman in her poignant editorial titled: Any Assassination Investigation That Includes Merrick Garland Or Chris Wray Is A Coverup.

Tragically, the same is true if Trump is made to wait for the results of such an investigation that might be undertaken by yet another time-consuming — and ultimately feckless — Congressional committee. 

His only real hope for real answers to be obtained within the time frame he needs them will have to be left to God … and to the rest of us — i.e., the We the People for whom President Trump is continuing to risk his life. 

All of which brings us to the only question remaining.

Does there exist among Trump’s army of supporters across this once-free nation any who have the skill sets, energy, and willingness to help Trump identify the would-be assassin’s accomplice and then pursue the trail of issues that are sure to follow in order to ultimately discover precisely who it was that initiated the plan to have shots fired at the head of a former and future President on July 13th?

Here’s to praying that it will come to pass … for a friend.
