‘The Art of Survival’: Winning as Americans

After the last election, I knew that people were scared and needed a voice through the darkness.  And I can write and talk even under the worst circumstances.  So, every day since that stolen election in 2020, where Biden was inserted to push out Trump with an obviously government-sponsored coup, I have written an article every day and filmed a video to go with them, and many millions of people have directly benefited.  If you have been paying attention, if you listen to a lot of talk radio on AM stations all over the country, podcasts, and cable news segments, it’s pretty normal for them to pluck ideas off my blog postings, which many influencers watch every day.  They need content, too.  I have been writing these blogs for many years, and I have put up an article every day, now for over 14 years, since 2010.  It was so successful that since about 2014, I just stopped doing personal interviews as a guest on radio and television; I just put my energy into being a content creator with my eye on providing a voice of reason to producers looking to fill airwaves with material that could help America get going again because the bad guys out there were playing for blood.  I thought about quitting the daily articles a few times during Trump’s first term.  But after he was removed from office, I doubled down to do everything I could in the background to keep the roots of our republic healthy because people, even the strongest people, have needed it.  But now that it’s coming to an end, now what?  I’m not sure, but I aim to do everything I can to help win this election, especially for Trump.  So, I have been reminiscing a lot lately and going back through all the Trump books I have read over the years, which inspired me to support Trump in the first place.  As I was watching Trump return to Butler, Pennsylvania, for a rally after the assassination attempt was applied to him there, I kept thinking of a much more little-known book of his called The Art of Survival, which is one of my favorites.  And I think many of you would enjoy it right now.  Because America is about to knock out its rivals, foreign and domestic, and a new day is dawning for us, it’s important that everyone understand what’s happening.

When The Art of the Deal happened, Trump was at the top of his industry, a very successful businessman, and he had crossed over to become one of the biggest celebrities in the world.  However, the wheels came off shortly after that book published in 1987.  After Reagan left office, the economy tanked.  I was so mad at George Bush Sr. as a 19-year-old kid that I began a crusade looking for a replacement, putting me in the Ross Perot house with his daughters on adventures that would fill several books themselves.  Along the way, I met people like Rob Portman, who I set up on a big town hall debate on WLW radio that helped him win his first congressional seat.  I did many other things to help, too, which could be an entire book of success similar to Trump’s writing about his life experiences.  But during this period, the wheels came off in life for many people.  Me included.  Trump lost his first wife, he lost several businesses, and he was looking like he was going to be bankrupt and broke for the rest of his life.  Later, in 1997, he wrote The Art of the Comeback, which I have said is the playbook for this second Trump term and an essential book that describes how he went from being many millions of dollars in debt, much poorer than a typical homeless person, and climbed back on top to become one of the world’s wealthiest people.  There was a book called The Art of Survival that was infinitely fascinating, and I saw that attitude fresh and again on the stage at that Butler Rally, and with the musical contributions of Christopher Macchio, which were just jaw-dropping fantastic.  Stunning!

Trump didn’t need to write another book or open a door to his personal life while everything was falling around him during this period.  But The Art of Survival is such a marvelous book about perseverance that even in his darkest hour, he wanted to help people pull themselves up when they were down and be better people.  It inspired me during that period to keep fighting, and fighting, and fighting, which I have always done in my life, too, including writing these articles every day, even when I don’t feel like it.  Because I see the hits I get on all this stuff, and hundreds of thousands of people per week consume my material daily.  And over a month, millions.  That’s a lot of people looking for a light in the dark.  And Trump always felt responsible for being that cheerful voice, even when it wasn’t good for him.  You can make some money with books, but not a lot.  So he didn’t write that Art of Survival for himself; he wrote it for people who look to him for leadership. 

Essentially, The Art of Survival is a lesson on why “The Eye of the Tiger” from Rocky III is an essential song for the American consciousness.  One of the prominent features in that book that was devastating for Trump was the fight of Mike Tyson losing to Buster Douglas.  It was devastating to Trump, who was getting into the business of promoting the young Tyson as he looked to be invincible.  And now he was a loser, and it hurt Trump.  I would say that out of everything that was happening badly to Trump during this period, Mike Tyson’s loss to Buster Douglas was the worst because of the psychology involved in winners becoming losers.  But Tyson would fight again and win most of his fights.  Trump would claw himself back from devastation and marry one of the most beautiful women in the world, and they would live a good life in a golden palace overlooking Central Park in New York.  Trump would become more successful than he achieved in the 80s under President Reagan.  As an older man who had seen the worst that the world could throw at him many times over by a powerful and corrupt government to keep him from running for president once again, he was there in Butler, Pennsylvania, as a champion of the world, and he was spiking the football in a much-deserved way.  That power of positive thinking caught the ear of the wealthiest person in the world, Elon Musk, who was excited and very boyish in his enthusiasm for supporting a second Trump term.  And I thought of that book.  If you can get a copy, you might want to read it because we live in an exciting moment in history, and I think you will find in The Art of Survival the critical ingredient for what comes next, and we will all enjoy it quite a lot.

6 Out of 10 Employers Want to Fire Their Gen Z Employees: If you want good productivity, you have to think out of the box

I wouldn’t just say I love foreign people from other places; I don’t think that tells the whole story.  I love people who like to work hard.  I work hard; I always have.  I love good work and people who want to do it.  I don’t care what their skin color is or their sex; if they like hard work, I will likely have something in common with them.  Even political differences aren’t so different if I feel the person I am talking to is a hard worker.  It just so happens that people from other places work harder than Americans.  And this isn’t something recent for me.  My kids are from the Gen Z generation, and I was so upset about their dating choices when they were teenagers that I encouraged them to date boys from places that still worked hard.  To me, it is reprehensible to be lazy.  I hate lazy people.  But I love hard-working, polite people, and that is how my oldest daughter managed to marry a young man from Canterberry, England.  Going to their house in Liberty Township these days is a real pleasure for me because I get to see the benefits of a couple of people who work hard together.  The results are obvious.  But to say the least, I understand what 6 out of 10 employers say when they indicate they would like to fire their Gen Z employees because they are too lazy and pretentious.  If we want to Make America Great Again, we must start by making Americans want to work again.  Because for many reasons, especially Gen Z, they have been poisoned as children into growing up and becoming problematic as employees.  And so much so that they threaten our current national security.

Not that all Gen Z types are wrong, but most of them are victims of a terrible public education system and college experience that was not academically inclined.  Most education produced in the United States these days has been infected with radical leftist politics.  That doesn’t mean that kids will all be corrupted.  If a kid comes from a good family, that might mitigate some of the impact.  But for children from broken homes or homes where the parents are just stupid, many of the kids from the Gen Z generation don’t have a chance.  I watched this problem start brewing while my kids were growing up.  Now, my wife and I were fantastic parents.  Kids always find something to complain about, but to a large degree, we kept the infection of social conformity from ruining their minds while they were growing up.  They turned out to be pretty good kids with sharp minds and intellect.  But it has been challenging for them to deal with other people from their generation who are just too lazy and pretentious to have a decent relationship.  It’s not just about dating and marrying different people but about having basic social interactions.  Gen Z, in my eyes, are the poor victims of a global menace rooted in globalism that intentionally poisoned American youth in detrimental ways to cripple our economic engine.  Like many things I have been pointing out going into 2025, every kind of attack that could be imagined upon the intellect of the average American youth has been let loose, and their poor, miserable lives show it for the sad tragedy that it is. 

My advice to the employers out there who are looking for labor for their enterprises is that you can find Gen Z employees who will do a good job.  But don’t just look in their direction.  I would say that many of the foreign immigrants who are legally trying to be a part of the American way of life will do a far better job than the kids coming out of American high schools and colleges these days.  It’s not about cheap labor that foreign employees have the most significant benefit.  If everyone is paid the same and fairly, the foreign employees, compared to the domestic ones, will far outperform expectations.  That is because foreign employees usually have a better family structure behind them, which leads to healthy living.  When people know family members love them, they tend to be less insecure in their relationships, even with co-workers.  So, when hiring new workers, one qualifying characteristic is family life.  If a potential employee can at least have a healthy family relationship, they are inclined to work well with a team of co-workers.  Gen Z in America were trained to grow up and be political weapons.  They were taught to be activists toward leftist, communist causes, like climate change, or to rally against toxic masculinity, and to toss young women into sexual deviancy to destroy their ability to raise proper American families.  I had several people this week ask me why I like to work with so many people from all over the world, and my reply to them was that they reminded me of the work ethic my grandparents had.  But I have very little personal respect for the slack-jawed losers of the subsequent generations, including the baby boomers from my parent’s generation.  The mess started with them.  But Gen Z is just ridiculous.

No wonder our federal government costs so much; they hire anybody with a pulse and turn them loose with high-cost burdens to do very little work.  And that trend is why so many employers are looking to dump their Gen Z employees wherever possible and replace them with automation.  I’ve worked with many Gen Z kids over the years, and out of every 100, I can usually get two or three of them to do good in the world.  The rest are just disasters.  It’s not like I haven’t tried, but if people don’t have the basics, a stable family life with parents and grandparents who have set them with a proper foundation of thought, the chances at success in life are scarce for anybody, especially Gen Z that has had just about everything placed against them from the start.  Bad families, horrible education, detrimental entertainment options, terrible diet, faulty philosophy, and confusing religious assumptions, everything about Gen Z has political radicalism in it, so to grow up to be helpful in anything is a far cry.  That doesn’t mean that we should stop trying with these kids.  I certainly do.  But 98 times out of 100, you will be disappointed by the results.  To cover what you need, we will have to look to people from other places where the foundations of family are much better.  When I travel to Japan, I am constantly reminded that success starts with the family structure.  They love their kids in Japan much better than in the United States or Europe.  And much of that comes from radical left politics that has sought in America to destroy the family structure for military reasons.  So, there is no quick fix to it.  Japan is largely successful because it raises children in somewhat healthy family structures.  And success follows those types of people accordingly.  But you can’t, as an employer, hire some slug from Gen Z and expect productivity to be good.  If you want good things to happen in your companies, you must hire good people; Gen Z doesn’t have them.  Maybe the next generation who grew up in the Trump years will be better.  But as of now, it’s not a surprise that so many employers are disappointed with the Gen Z generation and are trying to figure out how to get decent employees from them.  And to tell the truth, if you want good employees, you’ll have to think outside the box.  Because regarding Gen Z, what’s in the box is mostly garbage and frustration.

Slump Busters: Setting aggressive targets, and hitting them

It comes up a lot since the dumb and ridiculous Covid rules of employment, but Slump Busters are every bit as much of a thing now as they have always been.  People didn’t decide to loosen up their target acquisition consciously.  The human race still expects excellence even though the New World Order is clearly trying to make it easier for losers to succeed in the world at the expense of excellence and competency.  Setting low targets that are easy to hit has become the norm in the world regarding political expectations, and that trend has had disgusting consequences.  I have been talking about those observations for a while now, and they are most evident in drive-thru windows, which have become incredibly slow as Gen Z has become so much slower and cumbersome as they were taught during their education years by a society that has been infected by Marxist political movements to severely lower their expectations on what can be achieved in life.  People are still people and always will be, and it’s most evident in the sexual practices of a society what their true essence is regarding expectation.  And to that point, I have been talking about slump busters a lot lately.  I don’t participate in the slump-buster mentality and never have.  I set aggressive targets for myself in all aspects of my life, and I hit them.  Thinking like a shooter, I aim for the bottlecap at 100 yards.  Not the side of the barn, to make it easy to be successful.  Even though I have been married for many decades, almost 40 years, I remember the mating game well enough when I would go to a bar or nightclub with friends and watch the process unfold of slump busting, and it is precisely what we are seeing in our economy now, along the same lines, and it’s a disgusting reality that needs significant reform.

It’s not sexist to talk about this topic as it’s all-natural biology.  Women can pick any sex partner they’d like any time they want to.  All they have to do is let the male of their choice know they are interested, and men are designed always to be ready.  So these rules don’t apply to women as they are in the role of biology, the target that men must hit.  It’s up to the women to set aggressive targets and make things difficult for men.  And the more beautiful they are, the more motivated men are to attract the woman’s attention for the necessity of success.  When a wealthy man has an attractive young woman on their arm, they are communicating to the world that they are good at what they do and can attract a prime female to their bed.  So when going out to the meat market, I remember well enough how the game was played and still is.  People didn’t change; only the approach to politics by radical Marxist forces setting policy at the level of the United Nations to micromanage the way people interact with each other with new woke rules that are not applicable to the desires of all human beings.  When picking up women at a bar, the rules never change.  There are eight o’clock girls.  Then, some are still available at 2 in the morning.  And those are the slump busters.  If a woman is still available late at night, nobody wants her, and taking her home would be very easy and much less rewarding.  But if you are trying to knock the rust off social engagement with the reward of sexual conquest, then a slump buster may be the thing.  I would add that it’s a loser mentality to lower yourself to that level, but those lacking confidence in hitting a target may need to hit the broad side of a barn to make themselves feel better.

When you first get to a bar, if there are pretty girls there at all, because they don’t need to go to those places to get male attention, they can pick anybody off the rack at the grocery store.  But if they do end up at a bar or nightclub and are intent on finding a sexual partner for the short term, then they might be there at 8 PM, but they’ll be leaving with someone of their choosing by 9.  They don’t last long.  But the ugly people are still around late at night, and the most hideous of the ugly are all that’s left at 2 in the morning. Nobody will be bragging the next day that they ended up with a slump buster at the end of the night, just as nobody who thinks of themselves as a good shooter is bragging about hitting a barn from 100 yards.  Slump busters are confidence builders.  But for a person with a lot of confidence already, they would be disgusted in selling themselves short of a true victory in the realm of conquest.  Slump busters might satisfy the need to hit a target, but the quality of the effort isn’t worth sharing with the public.  I never liked the game, so I was married to my wife by the time I was 19.  I had seen enough very early in my life.

I met my wife while she was in the car with another guy.  I saw her at a traffic light and followed her boyfriend’s car to a parking lot, pulled up next to her side of the vehicle, and asked her for her phone number.  I was very aggressive with dating whoever I wanted and did not have any restrictions on confidence.  On the confidence front, I still shoot at very aggressive targets.  I shoot at the printed details on a bottlecap from 1000 yards.  I’m not just happy hitting the bottlecap.  And that’s what I expect from the world around me.  And when they indicate they are only excited to hit the side of a barn from ten feet, I naturally get very mad at them.  I would walk up to random women and ask them out, even in groups of four or five.  I had no fear of failure, and most of them said yes on the spot and if they were indifferent, they said yes a few weeks after.  And that’s still true to this day.  My wife was very beautiful, and everyone wanted to go out with her.  So, if you want to target pretty people like that, you must be bold.  So I took her from her date and married her.  And I can say that I never had a slump buster.  I never settled and never will, which is valid for everything.  And just because a bunch of pinheaded globalists suddenly think the human race is going to lower their expectations for what is possible in the world and that slump-busters will become the norm, not the exception, well, they have another thing coming.  I would say that people are embarrassed by their slump-busting trends over the last few years. Making America Great Again with high expectations and the kind of women who are off the market at 8 PM instead of building the world around the losers at 2 AM is coming back in style.  And the business world better accommodate for it because, ready or not, here it comes.  Slump busters are for losers.  And people don’t want to be losers.

If You Don’t Have People Trying to Kill You, You Aren’t Working Hard Enough to do Good in Life: President Trump is tough and understands

I have another saying that I use a lot.  I probably say it several times a week to somebody, and that is, “If people are not plotting against you or, in extreme cases, trying to kill you, you aren’t trying to do enough good in the world.”  It was a bit of a running joke the other day as I talked to one of the gun range instructors there with my wife while we were all shooting, and my lifestyle came up.  We were talking about my choice of concealed carry weapons, which I take everywhere with me at all times, and that is my .50 caliber Desert Eagle and my Smith & Wesson .500 Magnum.  My wife joked to the instructor who was pretty shocked to hear all the stories.  It’s not something I advertise, but as she said, “Everyone is trying to kill my husband.”  And it’s true, I wouldn’t say everyone, as I corrected her, but I would say many people.  Most people won’t go to that extreme, but it all starts with plotting and scheming for your demise.  And when they get frustrated with routine failures to remove you from their life, then they start plotting to kill you.  And to that point, I have an unusual life that I don’t talk about very much; during the day, I seldom take the same roads to places.  I usually find three or four ways to get where I’m going because back in the day, I had several personal friends who were hitmen, and they would tell me how they got rid of people, and I have remembered those things for my own life.  And getting caught at a traffic light thinking about other things is a good way not to come home that day.  Hit squads do and will case out a route they believe you’ll be on, and they will try to take shots at you while you are at traffic lights because, usually, those are very vulnerable times.

And I say the same thing about President Trump, I am not at all surprised that there are plots to kill him.  He has done an excellent job as a leader, which usually means there are many people who want to do bad things in the world and want to remove you as a pressure mechanism of expectation in their life to do better.  In a lazy world, people who don’t want to live up to the example you set as a good person will always ultimately try to kill you.  It’s a fact of life.  But the other thing that I say all the time, and have proved accurate many times, is just because people want to kill you, it doesn’t mean they can.  You can do many things to turn the tables on them and ruin their lives for their ill intentions toward you.  And most of those things don’t involve guns.  It’s great that President Trump survived the assassination attempts against him, but even as people were talking about them, my first thought wasn’t, “Did he survive.”  I expected him to survive. I would have been surprised if they had hit him because I understand the power of positive thinking, and Trump embodies that.  So, having excellent luck is part of that kind of mind.  I would say another 100 plots against Trump could be attempted, and he would likely survive every one of them because of his tendency toward luck, providence, or personal persuasion skills.  Ultimately, it is hard to kill people, even among the professional types, especially if the target is aware that attempts are active.  Once a person comes to terms with “death marks,” it is much harder to bring a person down, unaware.  It comes with being a tough guy, and Trump is, that you come to terms with the intentions that people have for your personal destruction, and part of the game of success is in denying them of their wishes. 

One of the great sins of our modern times, and even in our ancient past, was the corruptive power of appeasement that most people utilize to take the edge off those who would love to kill you.  Too many people who intend to do good in the world work very hard to make friends with people who don’t deserve that friendship.  Our society tries to make friends with its attackers rather than turn the tables on evil.  If a person resists the temptations of evil, there will be plots and schemes attempting to destroy you in any way possible.  There is no way to make friends and appease evil.  Evil must be fought, even to the death.  Giving people a chance to meet you on your terms of goodness is nice.  But it is evil to compromise with evil for your self-preservation.  Another thing I say all the time (I’m saying many things today that I say all the time, literally dozens of times per week) is why God said to put on his armor and trust him when things get scary.  He told the Israelites to take the land of Canaan, but they were scared of all the reports of giants in the land as their adversaries, so they hesitated rather than trusting God to take care of them when they had to face down a superior enemy with much more deadly force.  Ultimately, that is the story of Joshua. Once the next generation had died off, a new one led by the descendants of Moses finally attacked.  God had their back, and miracles of survival happened abundantly.  Another thing I say a lot, several times a week, when they tell me, “How do you know God exists?”   And I always reply, “Follow me around one day and watch what happens.  You’ll believe in God by supper.” 

And Trump learned this attitude a long time ago.  You don’t run around chicken of every insult and intention against you.  If people like you, then there is something wrong because most people don’t just like other people and suddenly want to hold your hand.  And there isn’t a government ever created on earth that can protect you from ill intentions.  The best way to protect yourself from the world’s evils is through competition, where the bad must compete with the good in open warfare.  Evil people often turn to plots to kill their antagonizers when they lose and have no redeeming path to success.  So when people are plotting to kill you, you should take that as a compliment.  It means you are doing an excellent job in the world.  If you are trying to appease those plotters with kind words and gestures, then you are sacrificing integrity for the possibility of living through the day by calling off their goons.  It’s not like you get up every morning looking for trouble, but if you plan to live your life free of other people, you will likely gain enemies and lots of them.  And when they profess and act in ways to kill you, then that is the ultimate compliment that you are doing an excellent job in the world.  It would be best if you never feared it.  But instead, knowing that should put a smile on your face.  I see that Trump understands it.  And now people who wonder why I am always smiling, well, you know why.  I love that Trump is genuinely a tough guy.  I always thought of him as one, but now that he has survived several assassination attempts, he’s part of that unique club that I respect more than any other trait in the human race.  And because people are trying to kill him, it means he’s doing a great job as President of the United States, unofficially at the moment.  But soon, officially.

The Lessons of Pleasure Island: Why the rats are fleeing a sinking ship ahead of Trump’s election

It’s not at all impressive that Puff Daddy, or P Diddy, or whatever that rap guy calls himself, is now in jail and under suicide watch.  Celebrities everywhere are in a panic over what might be revealed now that Puff Daddy is in prison over sex trafficking and what he might say to expose the people at his wild parties who likely did a lot of terrible things.  It almost has an Epstein Island feel to it.  But I think it’s safe to say that justice isn’t being served with Puff Daddy’s arrest, but rather, all the criminal elements behind his wild parties, including the government conspiracy parts, are looking to tie up loose ends while they still can.  Because here’s what’s going to happen: there will be a very knowledgeable Trump Department of Justice coming into power in the White House who knows who did what and to whom and when, and the mandate by the voting public is to clean house everywhere.  I’ve seen this before, so I know the type.  For a while, I wanted nothing more than to work in Hollywood as a film director, and I did get to meet many celebrities.  I never went to any of their wild parties, although I was invited to several.  I know what they do there and why and understand how financing controls the entertainment industry. I also know how that money traces back to BlackRock radicalism, directly connected to the World Economic Forum.  It’s not that any of these people are particularly smart.  But the network of acceptance that they have functioned under for decades is built on crime and scandal, and if the American people put a law and order president back in the White House without the fear of having to run again, after all, that has happened to him personally, well, then, that means they are in deep trouble. 

So what happens when pressure is applied to those who have been up to no good? They throw each other under the bus because they want to appear on the law’s right side.  In the case of the gangster rap industry, the CIA was all over its creation as a way to control the mass population.  The globalist narrative was to undo America from within by populating the music industry with a dangerous form of below-the-line thinking in gangster rap.  I’ve explained in detail how the CIA obtained their black budgets through large amounts of drug sales.  That’s how they function with independence from government oversight because Congress does not control the funding to them, so they are aligned with criminal efforts for their power without having the burden of voters looking over their work.  They declare secrecy for national security when, in reality, it’s about their strategic desires to steer all the nations of the world toward global communism.  That isn’t how the CIA started; they were supposed to be communist fighters, but as time progressed and leadership became more radicalized by government unions at the top, the goals shifted toward the global citizen movement, the same kind of radicalism that Bob Iger at Disney fully embraced, and everyone went all in on this criminal life represented by gangster rap for which people like Puff Daddy were created to lure in compromised people that were easy to extort due to access to lots of drugs and sex through known trafficking. 

I’ll go even further with all this: if you go to Cancun, there is a sex mall, or at least there was. I’m not sure about its current status, but it was on the way from the airport to downtown Cancun, where all the tourists go, and in it are lots of sex-trafficked girls who are there to satisfy any of the fantasies of travelers visiting.  Everyone knows about the drug cartels who openly run the city and conduct crime out in the open.  They leave the tourists alone primarily so that they’ll come and make fools of themselves as part of the very profitable sex trafficking industry.  Of course, there are plenty of cameras to capture who comes and goes, so those pictures can be released to embarrass the participants if needed.  If someone got the idea to go on a moral crusade against the criminal trends of the world, then they would be exposed for dipping their wick into lots of forbidden fruit.  And nobody cares about the girls; they are, to the political left, no better than an aborted baby.  They have no interest whatsoever in the lives involved.  They throw away people who likely won’t make it far into their 20s.  Most girls in those places have no chance at life, especially after living that lifestyle.  That is essentially what people like Jeffery Epstein and Puff Daddy did for high-end celebrities and influential people.  Bait them into the Pleasure Island discussed in the old Disney movie Pinocchio.  Remember when they lured all the kids to Pleasure Island with the promise of alcohol and cigarettes, only to turn them into donkey-enslaved people?  Since that movie in the 1940s, our culture has lost a lot of innocence in sex malls like the one in Cancun, parties at Puff Daddy’s house, thousands of college hazing rituals, and high school politics that are every bit just as cruel and maniacal. 

People supporting Trump, like myself, expect the destruction of that world, and Trump knows how this process works.  I’ve had many personal experiences where I was doing significant projects with critical people, but I was not a compromised person.  There would be no photos of me doing something terrible somewhere I would be ashamed of.  The example of how bad this situation is came to me with an illuminating experience involving the Banks Project in downtown Cincinnati, which involved the mayor, the council members, and several of the most important area builders.  I was there with a friend making the pitch in 1993 on how to conduct the Banks Project to the public, which is essentially what we see today between The Great American Ball Park and the Bengals Stadium.  My friend made the best pitch of the day out of all the fancy developer plans, and at the end of the presentation, everyone got together for a little party.  And not a single person came up to us to thank us for pitching the concept that would become the Banks Project.  We were there as a few 25-year-old kids that nobody knew.  Nobody had dirt on us, and nobody felt they could work with us without the foundation of filth that comes with most enterprises.  Trump knows how it is; he had to work on many significant projects to build all those skyscrapers.  There are videos with him and Jeffery Epstein because you go to these parties and hang around with some of those people, and there are always people taking pictures.  And if you take the forbidden fruit and hope you can trust everyone with the secret, you often spend the rest of your life looking over your shoulder.  You cannot join these fights because you are usually just as guilty of the behavior as everyone else.  Well, I never did, and if Trump had, they would have exposed any dirt they had on him.  Instead, he married a good woman, and she kept him focused in the right direction.  Enough so that he can clean up the behavior as a presidential option, once and for all, and because the rats know the implications of that danger, they are fleeing for all the corners of darkness they can find and trying to hide.  But they won’t be able to hide.  We know all about them, where they are, and what needs to happen to them.  As voters, we are putting Trump in power to do what we have always wanted to do: clean this mess up and restore people’s lives before Pleasure Island’s mistakes.  And return to the world of civility and courage for all, go after crime wherever it resides, and punish them thoroughly for all their diabolical efforts.

Kamala Harris Couldn’t Dunk if She Were Standing On A Ladder: The Week Trump Won the Election

Polling always has a lagging effect by several days once something momentous by a political candidate does something, and once the patterns are studied of the 2024 election cycle, it will be the third week of September that will be remembered as the week that President Trump sealed the deal.  Kamala Harris had been showing better in the polling.  Obviously, their strategy has been to keep her from talking so that she could adopt any MAGA position and sell peace and harmony as a party in hopes of hoodwinking enough low-information people into being suckered along to vote for her.  And the Democrats and the globalist citizen network of Marxist radicals might get away with pushing her over the top on election day.  But they seriously underestimated the intelligence of people and their desire to have a successful country. With all their efforts at manipulating to keep away from inquisitive journalists, Trump responded with a very defining week, closing the deal on what people can expect with his second term in office.  Specifically, his town hall with Sarah Huckabee Sanders in Michigan was an all-access stroke of public relations genius that few people could have pulled off.  Then, a few nights later, while Harris was trying to interview with Oprah, Trump stopped by Greg Gutfeld on Fox News, who is the hottest ticket in comedy these days and did an hour-long show-off script in what defined the 2024 election cycle.  Trump was brilliant in talking to anybody about anything and being willing to do it as much as was required, and it threw cold water on the communists behind Harris.  A media-driven strategy of propping up some loser like Kamala Harris wasn’t going to be able to compete with a guy as good as Trump with the media to beat him in public opinion.  Trump is not the same old flat Republican that Democrats have dealt with in the past, and they had no way of overtaking him.

I’ve discussed polling, how Trump typically overperforms, and why.  And with all that considered, Trump is virtually tied with Harris up to this point.  But once this third week settled in, even the polling started to pull away from Harris.  Keep in mind that the goal of most of the sources reporting polling needs the results to look close.  They are in the business of selling advertising, and if it seems hopeless for the other candidates and the down ballots, then they will lose the valuable ad buys that they count on every election cycle to generate.  I wouldn’t say that they purposely lie and mislead.  Certainly, in some cases, they do, but the technique of acquiring polling data is the problem.   To mislead, a pollster can knowingly sample several voters who are known Democrats over Republicans if they want to make the results juicier toward their favorable outcome.  But in general, the issue isn’t statistically sampling as much as engagement, which is always hard to measure in any industry.  Voter engagement is the key to this particular decade in voting, and Trump is great at inspiring people to participate in the voting process, which polling struggles to understand because they can really only call known voters.  Not voters who are voting for the first time or switching parties and voting for someone else, like many Democrats, especially teamsters, are willing to do for Trump.  So the cable news sites can try to talk up the horse race of politics so they can get ad buys, but the truth of the matter is that a more significant number of people are excited to vote for Trump than are excited to vote for Harris and she is unable to do anything about it. 

A lot has changed since 2015, when Trump started running for president, especially on late-night television. The landscape has shifted significantly, with the late-night talk show hosts who were anti-Trump losing their market share as they turned people off. This shift has led to a change in people’s entertainment options, with many switching to other options, such as Greg Gutfeld, who has filled in the void left by the other late-night talk shows.  The modern equivalents don’t have it and come across as network-driven YouTubers.  They don’t have the same power as they all once did because the market has changed beyond technological innovations and access to it.  If the old game of keep away was what worked in the past, then this new way of Trump defined the new approach; the new decentralization of communication has made all candidates more accessible.  Many more people saw Trump on a night on Gutfeld than a traditional live broadcast, and the clips played from it resonated for weeks in one-minute to two-minute soundbites that were quickly passed around social media.  The Harris campaign could not match this with a traditional keep-away game where political advisors send press releases, and the network stars would take it from there.  Their approach to the 2024 campaign shows an arrogance and lack of knowledge of the true nature of media in the modern world.

Trump, as he did for network television on The Apprentice, does understand how to use these tools to his advantage, and in the rock, paper, scissors game of modern politics, he was able to beat the keep-away game with much more social engagement and was much better at doing it than anybody else in this decade long election cycle.  If the Harris people were vast and in the business of micromanaging every aspect of her campaign, then Trump was headed in the opposite direction; he did what he wanted without a lot of campaign advisor manipulation.  He could walk into a room and just dominate it with sheer charisma and fresh ideas shooting from the hip, and he could adapt to whatever was being said at spontaneous events.  Kamala returned from her night with Oprah weaker, looking unprepared for the world even with all the cheerleading that Oprah has done for people over the years.  She couldn’t even dunk the ball standing on a ladder.  But Trump, going on Gutfeld, pulled down the whole basket with such a vicious dunk that the backboard shattered with the force of it all.  And in the days after, a clear winner emerged: Trump.  I’m sure he isn’t done; he didn’t come all this way and put forth so much effort to lose.  He was always a closer in business and is proving himself to be a closer in politics.  Ultimately, it’s up to the voters if you can have an honest election.  So, a political person can only present their case; voters will decide who they want.  But in the wake of all this, the third week of September 2024 will always be the week Trump won the election.  He closed the deal on a long journey of political theater and showed the flaws in the traditional approach that the Harris people weren’t prepared for.  And it was good to see for a change.  Trump is the first candidate to run for the White House who is a true insider and representative of the people that America produces.  And the Democrats had no answer and miscalculated horrendously, as they were always poised to do.  They did not match the trajectory of history; instead, they tried to control it much to their detriment.

The “Passive Aggressive” World War: Domestic enemies like the Soros family, intend to reduce the Executive Branch as one of their key strategies of American destruction

This is probably the first passive-aggressive world war anybody has seen, but don’t kid yourself. The world is at war with the United States, and they have their recruits within our nation as domestic enemies.  And they reveal themselves by their actions, mainly when you see that these villains have been purposely trying to dumb down the Executive Branch for many years now, overtly, to demoralize us into complacency and a turnover of our country to the hands of the United Nations as a one world government.  Their goal has not been to bomb us into submission with physical bombs or ground troops landed as they did in Red Dawn.  They have been seeking to undermine us with erosions of our Bill of Rights and to loot our patriotism with the reality of defeat, which they have been organizing in the background for several decades now.  Who are these villains, you might ask, who are seeking to take us over?  You can start with the radical group of globalists at the World Economic Forum.  And you can see them in the Open Border Societies that are directly connected to George Soros and his rinky dink little son.  If you have to put names next to actions, that’s an excellent place to start.  But then you would meet them directly in the people behind giving Joe Biden those little presidential podiums that look like a cheap television studio for comments on the meat and potatoes of the severity of this war.  Because those actions have a purposeful psychological desire, and they are warfare just as clearly as any other act of it has ever been defined to a human mind.  And because it is war, we must deal with these attackers as we would any other military enterprise and not be accommodating of their “rights” as citizens of America, if that’s what they are.  When they act against the flag, they surrender the rights and due process of the American way of life. 

There has been a lot of talk about how Joe Biden presents big news to the public from that little podium they have been giving him as opposed to the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office or some other location in the White House that projects strength and power.  They have been using Joe Biden to present information to the public to take the power of the Executive Branch as the leader of the free world and make it all look like just another global consultant firm with a back seat on world affairs.  This process started with Barack Obama and Glenn Beck when he was still at Fox News used to make a big deal about it.  The purposeful use of removing the glamour of the Executive Branch and suppressing it in the eyes of the world to look like just another leader.  Not the main one that leads the world in every topic, which is how it has been in the last century.  Knocking the American Executive Branch down to size then was an apparent campaign of demoralization of the American people to show them that they did not have a right to pick a leader of the world and to impose that leader on them financially.  When you shake the raccoon out of the sleeping bag here, it all traces back to centralized banking and their desire to run the world’s governments by controlling the fiscal policy of all nations.  So this is an overt turf war that many didn’t know was happening, but it is one of the worst wars we’ve ever fought, and no army on earth can win it for us because the enemy has deliberately turned to emotional passive-aggressive warfare instead of overt warfare, which is represented in tangible assets.  But it is war just the same.

I have always been aware of this war, but it came to a fine point for me on two occasions recently; first was the excellent book by Trump called Save America, which is a collection of photos from his years in office and campaigning for this next term of service before the 2024 election.  No wonder they hate him so much, reflecting on that book, because Trump does what he does with everything, and that elevates it in the public’s minds with positive branding.  It is a remarkable book if you look at it the way the enemies of America do.  That book is the opposite of what they are trying to project upon the United States to fulfill their military objectives.  Trump’s book Save America is on the New York Times best-seller list, which doesn’t make them happy.  If you take the sales from Winning Teams Publishing, the group producing all these new Trump books, and the bookstore sales that the New York Times is tracking, Save America is the number one book in the country, a remarkable achievement.  It also reveals how hungry people subconsciously are to have an executive branch, picked by the people, to run America and the world.  That is the offering that Trump is proposing for his next election. The Soros money that believes they can purchase the seat away from the American people with Kamala Harris are frustrated by the efforts because they thought Trump was done. They thought the nation’s people were conquered assets to centralized banking and the desires of the United Nations. 

But deeper than that, and I am so glad that we did it, I took my family on a big trip out west a few years into the Biden administration, and one of our big stops was Mt. Rushmore.  It was like a religious event; we arrived early, and I immediately, with my daughters and grandchildren, went down to the spot of the previous 4th of July ceremony where Trump and Melania gave an excellent speech motivating Americans toward patriotic endeavors.  Upon standing there and visiting the location extensively that day, I understood all the fuss and why the inserted Biden administration wanted to cancel the fireworks at the famous monument.  It was to diminish in the public’s minds their impression of patriotism.  They did not want people to revere the Mt. Rushmore site; there aren’t Democrats on that wall of rock.  Mt. Rushmore does not embody the goals of the globalists, which is to conquer America and replace their enthusiasm with sex, drugs, and dumb minds made that way through public education and college hazing rituals.  And they certainly don’t want a Trump to give strength again to the Executive Branch and to restore in the mind of the public a sense of patriotism that they have been working to destroy for many years now.  What do you think the kneeling during NFL games during the National Anthem was all about?  It was an attack, like any other, and the perpetrators should be punished in a capital way because of their malicious intent.  None of this is by accident.  It has been purposeful, and from my perspective upon these stated observations, there is nothing accidental about any of it.  Destroying the impression of the Executive Branch, which Trump is promising to Make Great Again, is to stop a military incursion by borderless hostilities functioning from the façade of the United Nations toward a one-world government of tyranny and injustice for all.  And we can’t tolerate that, not in the least.

Dope-smoking, slack-jawed losers are Running the McDonald’s in Hamilton, Ohio: A workforce that has never recoverd from Covid safety protocals

Another benefit from my grand jury service over the summer of 2024, which became a running joke among the other jurors, was what I did each day when we took a lunch break.  I don’t usually spend that much time in court, so my daily routine was tremendously interrupted for weeks at a time and during lunch, we seldom ever had time to eat a packed lunch, so I got into the habit of going to the McDonald’s across the street from the courthouse in downtown Hamilton to get a large Coke and a large Fry for a snack.  It was easy for me to get that kind of food and quickly take it back up to my desk to eat while we listened to testimony and examined evidence.  It’s not the most healthy thing to do in the world, but it was a way for me to bring a little fun to my life when there was so much negativity.  And the other jurors got a kick out of it, even when some of the afternoon cases were horrendous murders, and we had to look at crime photos of the carnage and hear from people in testimony who had gone through likely the worst thing in their life.  I enjoyed my French Fries and a Coke each day.  But what I didn’t enjoy was getting the food.  I picked that dietary expression because I didn’t want a complicated order that involved overeating food; I wanted it easy and convenient because sometimes we had a half hour for lunch, an hour, but sometimes it was as short as 15 minutes, it depended on whatever was going on that day.  But I didn’t want to wait long for the food, so I made it easy.  The food I got couldn’t get my fingers all messy because I often ate it while writing things down and talking to others. 

So, speed was not fully displayed at the McDonald’s in downtown Hamilton.  Out of the weeks that I was on the grand jury, I went to that particular McDonald’s well more than twenty times, and there wasn’t a single day where they were prepared for a lunch rush as the primary food option across the street from the Butler County Courthouse.  Not only are all the employees who work at the courthouse, which includes police officers and security, tempted to get lunch at McDonald’s, but so are all the residents who have to interact with the court.  So it’s a jam-packed store that sometimes has to push out a lot of food.  Now I know something about fast food restaurants; for many years, like the first two decades of my adult life, I worked full-time second jobs to make extra money my family needed.  Some jobs were at McDonald’s, Wendy’s, and Frisch’s.  I know what lunch and dinner rushes look like and how they must be staffed behind the scenes, away from the customer experience.  One of my offerings at these places was that I always handled pressure well and quickly.  I was often able to control two or three-line positions all by myself, which was an incredible benefit to them, and to say the least, I learned a lot.  One of these places was Wendy’s, known as “The Beach” location; it’s now a Mexican restaurant.  It was often understaffed because of the area.  There were many places for people to work, so this restaurant location was always in competition to acquire good employees.  The critical store was at the Fields Ertle location just south along I-71, which took up most of the prime labor, leaving The Beach to be perpetually understaffed but at times, one of the busiest stores in all of Cincinnati. 

To make matters even worse during these years, I was going through horrendous personal circumstances, including individual lawsuits against me, political problems that involved my stance against drug dealers that got me into a lot of trouble in my community as we lived in Mason, and some cops were making money running cover for drug dealing and I had taken a stance against that.  And my wife and I only had one car for several years because of all these problems.  So, I rode a bicycle everywhere so my wife could have a vehicle for our kids to get back and forth to school because we wouldn’t let them ride the bus with a bunch of loser kids with severe behavioral problems.  So I don’t want to hear about anybody’s problems.  I’ve been there and managed through them just fine and experienced the worst that can come to a human being.  However, the store by The Beach Water Park, closest to Kings Island, was busy during the summer months and required fast employees.  We had many call-offs, so I would typically cover the entire food line for the dining room and the drive-thru all by myself.  Nobody was faster than me in Cincinnati.  So, with that eye, I was very critical of McDonald’s in Hamilton, Ohio, which had a staff that never seemed too inclined to make sure the customers were serviced quickly and efficiently, or at times, even at all.  They gave off a pretentious feeling that we were lucky they were at work.  And it displayed several problems that I see in other places as well.  The service world has never recovered from the dumb protocols of Covid, and three years later, a fast food store like McDonald’s still had trouble recruiting employees to staff all their needed positions, and when they were short on labor, they would close their dining room and just put their efforts onto the drive-thru.  Something that no restaurant would have dared do leading up to COVID-19.  But after, it was a common practice. 

This labor problem holds in almost every field; many employees in large companies still work from home, or so they are trying.  Very progressive companies who are controlled by Democrats at BlackRock and other financial monstrosities have greatly empowered the slack-jawed losers of the world who are lazy and unambitious and have put them in charge of labor, and the effects are horrendous.  I usually don’t interact with fast food restaurants these days, as my wife usually gets us food from those places, but I’m too busy to get it myself.  So only because I was at court all those days did I see how this particular McDonald’s operated compared to what I have experienced in the past few decades through my efforts.  They had terrible management there, and the employees had a presentation of self-importance from the staff feeling lucky to have employees.  If I were ordering anything more complicated than French Fries and a Coke, the wheels of that place would entirely fall apart.  What had changed was the fast food approach to work, not the demand, and that happened because of the introduction of poor workplace conduct with the COVID protocols.   Like most industries, the pin-headed lazy losers of the world had made inefficiency normalized through a rules-based society, and the impact was a much less “capitalist” world.  It’s precisely what is happening with Elon Musk and the FAA.  The same types of people sink production in every industry, from space flight to getting fries during grand jury testimony.  And it’s a problem that has to be fixed for good with the prosecution of those who brought us COVID-19 and told us to socially distance, wear a mask, and work from home.  Those policies intentionally destroyed our economic viability, and people still need to pay for them three years later.   Because the Hamilton McDonald’s in Butler County, Ohio, has never recovered.  And the slow food by a bunch of dope-smoking, slack-jawed losers who work there is a crime against humanity and a treasonous attack against the sovereignty of the United States.  And can’t be endured.

What to Believe About 2024 Polling: The machine is protecting itself from a revolution against their control

Don’t forget that we are dealing with a massive criminal syndicate that has taken over the levers of government power and is using that power to stay in control.  And those looking for the easy money that comes with corruption are facilitating the enterprise, which is undoubtedly the case with the warnings The New York Times has been saying about election results.  Of course, they plan to cheat again when they say that we should not go to bed expecting a winner on election night.  It might look like Trump won, but as they did in 2020, the plan is to keep counting mail-in ballots, especially from overseas, until they reach the number to push Kamala over the top.   That’s what they did with Biden.  But this time, it will be much harder for them because so many eyes are on this election, and they won’t have COVID-19 as a cover for deviating from traditional election counting procedures.  But just as a baseline, we are a highly technical country; modern tools allow us to know and do things better than ever before.  However, suppose we can’t get a result on election night. We are witnessing incompetence driven by a need for theft and a whole bunch of problems that an established order has in controlling mass society with election fraud.  The New York Times is well aware of this.  Never forget that the company that owns The New York Times went about in the 1990s buying up a lot of media companies, particularly KFOR Channel 4 in Oklahoma City, which was investigating the evidence of a third terrorist after the Oklahoma City Bombing, the investigation was essentially shut down after the new owners showed no interest in pursuing the story and a massive desire to contain the evidence from the public.  The same thing happened in Cincinnati with The Cincinnati Enquirer when Gannett bought them, the same newspaper corporation that runs USA Today.  Independent media has been gobbled up by giant corporate conglomerates that are highly invested in global socialism, and they use the media to control populations on a mass scale.  Not to report the news to them but to control what they think.

So don’t expect that same machine to tell you the truth about what’s going on in the 2024 election.  I told everyone you’d see every evil effort during this election season.  And I’ve also said emphatically that Democrats can’t win if they don’t cheat.  And we are at that point in the election cycle where cheating occurs at the suppression polling level.  Suddenly, Kamala Harris, hiding from the world without doing much public engagement, is surging in the polls, creating the illusion that she is poised to win, frustrating Trump supporters with a cold reality that we might end up with a communist takeover of America.  Even Rasmussen has shown a much closer race between Trump and Harris than anybody thought was possible. Just remember, the machine does not want to give up power, and it is doing everything it can to suppress the Trump vote, so don’t take anything for granted.  Do not stay home on this one; get out and vote for Trump.  This is the chance of a lifetime to undo the machine that is visible when we see what BlackRock has done to the world.  There is a lot of money for this criminal class of people to rob us by the means they have been utilizing.  And that criminal class of global Marxists wants Kamala in the White House to continue that criminal enterprise. 

In all likelihood, Trump is doing even better than this. But polling doesn’t capture engagement very well. The date on this map is four days before this article.

It’s not that we can’t trust the polling.  The method is suitable for capturing trends; not everything is a conspiracy.  However, many of the polling companies want a particular outcome because they are part of the media machine, so they sample in the direction of the outcome they desire.  But saying that, Rasmussen is supporting Trump, so if they wanted to show him winning, they would sample more Republicans than Democrats, like many of the others are doing, of likely voters and report the results with the tip of the scales toward their desired outcome, to essentially make reality motivate action at the voting booth.  But as things are, even Rasmussen shows things moving in Kamala’s direction away from Trump, so what’s going on?    That’s why I say engagement is a far better definition for success than just a statistical sampling of likely voters who happen to pick up the phone from a pollster.   Polling how it has been done has significant limitations regarding the new trends from social media.  Traditional media that has been bought up by the globalist companies looking for international Marxism have not yet adopted the modes of new media and independent media that are driving modern culture, so their visibility into the support behind Trump is very alarming to them.  And traditional polling does not do a good job of seeing these trends because we are far from conventional politics here.  But they even say that Trump has the lead in the battleground states and can win the election with Pennsylvania alone.  I think Trump will do well in Wisconsin, Virginia, Michigan, and other Democrat strongholds.   But he doesn’t need to win them all.  It comes down to Pennsylvania this time, and Trump is poised well there because that was the location of the first assassination attempt against him, and looming in the background is a lot of anger toward the established order, thereby the first-time voters and freshly converted Republicans who are very energized to vote for Trump. 

Remember, it’s lot scarier for the Harris people.

If state polling or even national polling is showing a tie or Kamala Harris is pulling ahead by a few points, it comes down to the errors in sampling.  The number that will matter most will be the engagement factor, which is why Democrats are so concerned about mail-in ballots, especially from overseas.   If the election is close, it will be hard for them to steal the results, as they did in 2020.  But in truth, if the polling shows Harris close or winning, it is because polling only picks up a likely voter, not one who is voting for the first time because of Trump.  Their phone number likely won’t show up on a polling list to call.  Nor will they pick up if they don’t know who is calling them.  Traditional polling can give you an insight into trends, but it can’t pick up engagement, which is why polling wasn’t able to see how well Trump would do in 2016 or 2020, where Trump consistently did better than polling showed.  That’s because polling, even at Rasmussen, can’t pick up engagement, the people who are motivated to vote because the candidate is one they feel great excitement for.  But what polling can do is take the wind off of that excitement and hope through suppression results to keep people home believing that voting is pointless.  That is the kind of game we are dealing with here, and we see it every year when The New York Times publishes their probability of victory at the beginning of election night, which points in Trump’s direction by the end of the night.  But it doesn’t start that way.  These international organizations control elections in countries through suppression polling, giving the illusion that something is more popular than it is so that social mechanisms will provide them with the results they seek.  However, Trump functions outside that control, which is undoubtedly the case in 2024.  So keep that in mind when you see polling results, and don’t let them steer you away from voter engagement because that’s the point.  And don’t believe what you hear.  This won’t be easy at any level.  Get ready for a fight, because the enemy is dug in, and corrupt beyond belief.

David Campbell’s Child Pornography Case at Butler Tech: The real danger lurking behind the teaching profession

I couldn’t talk about it at the time in August when David Campbell was indicted on 23 counts of child pornography.  I know him a bit; he runs the Butler Tech robotics division as the director.  I want to think that Butler Tech does good things for kids who need opportunities, so the story of yet another teacher who has sexual problems is just piling on at this point.  I’d be happy to hear that there is any teacher who is happily functioning productively these days because radicalism has taken over the profession in such devastating ways.  And this news only confirms its tragedy.  But more than anything, I was serving on a grand jury in the next county that involved many of the same kinds of cases and investigations. I would contaminate the cases I was hearing testimony to by providing comments.  And it was during this grand jury session, I heard about Campbell, which bothered me quite a lot.  Because I had known this guy, I shook his hand and worked with him on several occasions.  Twenty-three counts is a lot, and because I was a foreman on that grand jury, I had the context as to just what those charges were and how prosecutors presented the case.  And what kind of evidence has to be produced to get such a broad indictment.  Knowing all that, the chances of David Campbell being innocent of those charges are slim.  For my cases, I had to watch much evidence of what child pornography is, what it means to possess it, and peddle it by sending it to someone else.  When that information goes to the IP address on your personal computer, there is no way it could have gotten there unless he wanted to obtain it freely. 

Until my grand jury service, I had never seen child pornography, and specifically anal sex.  I have heard people talk about it, but there was a part of me that thought the possibility of applying sexual applications to a bodily exit was impossible.  I could not see how such a thing could be considered sexual, let alone to have fully grown adults apply such a technique to children.  It’s one thing for people to say something about it; it’s another to see.  For several child pornography cases, I had to see things in testimony that I had thought were previously impossible.  These cases were essentially the same as what Dave Campbell was being indicted for, so it wasn’t good.  And what was worse was a look into that world where so much of this child pornography was out there.  It wasn’t unique and hard to find.  It was abundant and detrimental.  The amount of people that were involved in this child pornography network was very high. And the cause of it was vast and highly destructive.  But any claim that a person in his position could make that the pornography accidently ended up on his computer and that he was innocent of the charges was an almost next-to-nothing chance.  I have gone my entire life up to this point not seeing anything close to resembling child pornography, so it’s certainly easy to avoid until I served on a grand jury where I had to see evidence in cases like the one charging Dave Campbell.  So that made me even more angry about it, and I wasn’t going to comment until my jury service was over, which it is now.  And to say I’m disappointed again by the Butler Tech teachers would be a vast understatement.

It is impossible to mentor young people if anybody allows their mind to consume child pornography in any state.  I can’t understand any sexual practice that does not involve a perfect recreation area applied to a female application process in the way that makes a baby.  Sex is designed to be a bottomless pit of perversion to provide the kind of stimuli it takes to procreate.  And that, by design, should only happen a few times in a person’s life, enough to produce a few kids.  Sexual lifestyles cannot be a hobby like building model airplanes.  If you are always looking for perversions to stay interested in it, you are going to go insane.  It takes the intellect of a human being not to act out of primal cravings like some dog humping the leg of a chair whenever they get excited.  Humans are supposed to rise above that intellect to higher places.  And child pornography has no place in a healthy society, especially among teachers who are teaching young people.  Once that line has been crossed, there is no going back.  No reform for David Campbell will allow him to teach children again.  But the worst part of this case is that he’s not alone.  Under the current woke rules of entry, the teaching profession is filled with these broken types of people.  And my grand jury experience showed me just how vast this network is.  It would be sad if it were only one child.  And I would consider experiencing sex with that one child a capital offense with at least life in jail.  But I saw a video with hundreds and hundreds of different kids, which is a peek into a very dark world that, at the very minimum, has to be defunded and disabled.  There is no redeeming value for people convicted of child pornography. 

The more people I know in the world, the more disappointed I am with their conduct.  Dave Campbell, when you meet him, gives off no trace that he would be so interested in child pornography.  He acted like a perfectly average person.  So, knowing all this only leads to my suspicion of how many teaching professionals are doing this.  And based on my personal experience, not just with this case but over the years, it is much higher than 1% of the population.  This is a dire situation considering just nearby Lakota schools, which are also in Butler County.  It’s why parents were so upset at the behavior of the Lakota superintendent when he indicated any sexual attractiveness to children in a police report taken under questioning.  People know how dangerous this child pornography issue is and how many kids are being pulled into it by trusted adults, only to be ruined forever in such devastating ways. By the time some of these teachers talk and share stories in the teacher’s lounge, we are seeing a vast network of well-paid people with way too much recreational time on their hands to feed these obsessive traits of unhealthy sex practices.  It’s bad enough when it’s adults who explore all these permissive lifestyles of pornographic sex practices.  Because those lifestyles don’t generate excitement any longer, turning to the perversion of child pornography is a common step, not a unique one.  It breeds participants in the teaching profession because they have access to so many children, and their high rate of pay and short working hours give them too much time to feed a destructive personality disorder that is too easily concealed by public facades of the teaching profession.  I think there are a lot of Dave Campbells out there; they just haven’t been caught yet because it takes so much time to collect the evidence, and the prosecutors can’t get them all, especially the borderline cases, which is even worse in the context of Dave Campbell from Butler Tech.
