Barring wildly blatant election chicanery, Trump will be the next POTUS. Given certain assumptions, he will improve the American condition. Let us even assume he vastly improves our overall circumstance in ways may of us would not have expected.
It's not enough.
Without a fundamental sea change in the way Americans think and choose to act as political creatures, anything Trump accomplishes will ultimately count for naught because the next Democrat or other fellow traveler of the left to gain the seat will do asd Biden has: he will undo it to whatever degree pleases him or his handlers.
We don't need leaders nearly as much as we need to become the guardians of our own freedoms and all the rights that follow therefrom. We need to understand freedom properly, decide that it is what we want, and then adopt an posture of absolute and grim intolerance of even the most seemingly trivial and innocuous violation of a man's rights. We must be willing to impose upon the guilty, draconian punishments not just as the price they exact upon themselves in consequence for their felonious actions, but as a stark reminder to all comers what awaits those who take up the mantle of the Public Trust and then betray.
America's salvation cannot come from Trump, but only from us.
