Remember Why You Liked Trump In the First Place?

While others have become prominent in our political culture after him, no one is quite like Trump and to think otherwise is ludicrous.

By Lauren Farrell

It’s been an interesting week of watching people on the Right scrambling to sling mud at anything or anyone to which or whom it will stick. Perhaps the most interesting of all is “who” the blame has fallen to. Namely, Donald Trump.

Most people do not understand the kind of true sacrifice Trump made when he decided to run for office—even though he surely didn’t have to. The hatred and other persecutions, the sorts that come with such public sacrifices, have the potential of ruining not only one’s own life but that of one’s family. Most people don’t know anything about what that’s like. Nevertheless, Trump chose to make those sacrifices to expose the unabashed corruption at every level of American politics.

Before Trump pulled back the curtain we only saw shadows and projections of what was actually happening there. We got only rare glimpses of what really goes on behind the scenes. We knew things weren’t on the up and up, but little did we know how deep the swamp really was. At that time, the Republican Party was lifeless and without any sense of direction. No one should forget that Trump resuscitated a dying party. He gave it a future. He gave it hope.

He was the people’s champion among those who felt left behind by the establishment on both sides. He put American politics under a microscope like no other president ever has.

I think that is why the last week has been so inconceivable. People who once supported Trump saying that his era is over, that Trumpism is dead, and casting him aside for the next shiny object. I have to ask these people one very important question: Why is Ron DeSantis, a candidate who is similar to Trump in many ways, now viewed favorably by the anti-Trump crowd on both sides? It leaves me with an uneasy feeling and doesn’t sit well with me.

This does not seem like a coincidence. It seems like an intentional move on behalf of the establishment elites. Indeed, you can be sure of that. Trump stands for everything these people find abhorrent and he can’t be controlled or bought like the majority of those in D.C.. During his four years in office, he showed what our country could be with no new wars, significantly reduced illegal immigration, tax cuts and deregulation, bringing companies back to America, and building a stronger military.

It is undeniable that Trump brought an authentic and unique agenda to the table and showed himself to be different from anything the Republican Party has ever had. While others have become prominent in our political culture after him, no one is quite like Trump and to think otherwise is ludicrous.

Without Trump at the helm for the last two years, the RINOs have regained much of the momentum they lost and they, like the Democrats, cannot stand the thought of another four years under Trump. Backing away from Trump now is ill considered. Make some of your own observations about these strange occurrences and remember why you liked Trump in the beginning.

Remember, the same people who were attacking him years ago are the ones still attacking him now, only today they are using a well-liked candidate (who owes a great deal to Trump) against him, causing a divide and duping everyone in the process. Consider who that really benefits. That says a lot to me.

Last Updated on November 19, 2022 The Washington Examiner is calling on America First Arizonan, Kari Lake, to turn on President Trump and accept election fraud in the wake of her Governor’s race “loss” to infamous Arizona election boss Katie Hobbs. Shockingly, Hobbs, as Arizona’s Secretary of State, was allowed to run her own election.

“Kari Lake can be a conservative superstar if she dumps Trump,” The Washington Examiner claimed in a headline, citing the talking points of a strategist aligned with the open-borders Chamber of Commerce, before claiming that election fraud doesn’t exist.

Lake, The Examiner’s piece claimed, should […]

Anyone care to discuss?

If you believe the elections are rigged, what makes you think anything would be different next time?
If you believe they're legit, then how does Trump possibly attract new voters to replace the ones he's hemorrhaging??

Discuss what? I never liked Trump in the first place. I always viewed him as some strange sort of narcissistic, bling-obsessed Dennis Hopper.

In Trump's mind it wasn't a sacrifice. It was an opportunity to feed his massive narcissism.

I believe the voting was rigged we need to stop electronic ballots and counters. We need to stop mail-in ballots. We need paper ballots, same day voting and counting.

Your response is too shallow. You never liked him so, therefore, he did nothing good for this country...uh huh, I get it. :rolleyes:

Your memory is too shallow. You want me to fill this thread with my objections to him, as I have done many other threads? Poison at Warp Speed? Conspiring with Pelosi to trash the Constitution? Laying the foundation for Bidenflation? We can do that.

I was responding to the thread title. His record is indeed a deeper matter. But I have hip waders, and a clothespin for my nose.
 
i think trumps likeability is a negative factor . of the states the dems won last i'm not seeing any i think would be fllipped upcoming. the fact that after a year and a half of third world runaway inflation the opposition party couldnt even get a senate majority seems very telling to me .

Ok, so you answered the first part of the question, but not the second.... What makes you think that those things will be fixed by the time of the 2024 election?

Never really cared for Trump in the first place. I was one of the never Trumpers on this forum posting evidence show how he was liberal and with the establishment the whole time. Plus his performance with the pandemic solidified my fears about him. He financed the vaccine, supported the lockdown, continued his support for NATO and the war with Russia.

The fact that he triggered stupid liberals who cant see that he is on their side is not good enough to back him for a second run.

He is too old and lastly, the stuff he said about Ron Paul during that one appearance at CPAC is the reason why I will NOT support him this round. The man is a horrible executive who suppported himself with swamp creatures, if he loves the country, he should retire and support a true America first candidate

I believe the cheating works best when the numbers are close. If we can get someone with popular support, we can overcome the cheating. Also, we need a team not filled with swamp creatures that would make a good case to the courts about the cheating. Rudy Gulliani is not it
 
I liked that the left hated him

Which is of course, is still as true as its ever been
