Its That Time: Here is the Strategy

Don’t kid yourself; it is entirely possible that the reason that the political left wanted Kamala Harris was to suppress the voting results so that many Republicans would fall asleep thinking Trump was going to win.  Only to give themselves a better chance at picking up some of the close-down ballots, using Harris as a throwaway for the White House.  Any admissions at this point by radical Marxists who are concerned that Kamala is losing everywhere could, in truth, just be a calculated ruse meant to suppress the actual vote count to hide the massive fraud in 2020 by comparison so that Republican voters stay home and give easier congressional races over to Democrats so that they can win control of the House.  Kamala Harris, especially down the stretch, has been horrible.  She is essentially polling exactly where Biden was after the June debate, and there is no potential at this point of doing any better.  And I think she was a calculated disaster for all kinds of reasons.  But the thing to watch out for is that as Republicans and converted Democrats who are voting for Trump and MAGA, perhaps for the first time, not to be suckered by the fly-paper trap and assume Trump was going to win and to stay home on election day and leave any votes on the table.  Even if Trump blows away Kamala Harris, that’s not enough.  She has only one path to the White House if many crazy things fall her way, which isn’t likely.  But I think that is part of the game they are playing, and they’ve known it since before they pulled Biden off the ticket.  The key to this election cycle is gaining Republicans in the House and extending the current majority.  Democrats, however, are hoping to gain a small majority, which has been their game all along.

There are around 22 seats up for a flip in the House this year.  Of those, Republicans should gain a 6 to 7-member majority.  If things go well, it could be as high as 10.  If Republicans get cocky as everyone did in 2022 and assume there will be a big red wave that turns out to be just a little splash of water, then in that case, Democrats hope to gain control of Congress, ultimately putting them in charge of Washington, D.C., as a surprise for the election cycle because nobody has been talking about it.  In that case, they don’t care if Trump is president or not because Jamie Raskin has already said what they are all thinking: they have impeachment papers already prepared for Trump to throw him out of office.  And that is if they certify the election at all.  Republicans, we learned with Mike Pence and Mitch McConnell, did not have the guts not to approve the 2020 election as they should not have because of all the problems that were obvious at the time.  But Democrats have no such qualms.  They don’t care, and they play for blood.  So if they have a majority, they will resist with everything they have to certify Trump’s win.  That’s why you can’t assume that Kamala’s baffling stupidity isn’t part of the Democrat’s strategy into other offices.  Nobody puts someone as dumb as her on the front line unless she is a distraction meant for voter suppression.  Democrats might have hoped that her being a woman and a person of color might have been like a Hail Mary pass at the end of a desperate football game.  But experience says that what they are really after is voter suppression by making Republicans think they didn’t have to vote because Trump was easily going to win. 

The Senate also looks to be well in hand for Republicans.  As he said he would do all along, Bernie Moreno, down the stretch in Ohio, looks poised to beat the long-time Sherrod Brown, which is alarming for Democrats.  There are similar races, such as Keri Lake in Arizona, that are trending in the same direction, and all Democrats can hope to do is to get a few thousand Republicans to stay home and not vote so that the Democrats’ election fraud machine can keep tight races within the margin of cheating, and perhaps keep some of those Republican seats in the senate from holding a majority.  It’s the only play that Democrats have at this point.  They have been routinely rejected in just about every category over the last 8 years, and there are so many peelaways from Democrats who are now voting Republican that there is no other move for them but sheer desperation.  I would advise that nobody take anything for granted and that you vote like there is no tomorrow for Republicans, no matter how comfortable you think your person is leading.  As I say all the time, and now is one of those times, if Democrats can’t cheat, they can’t win.  It is my offering that Kamala Harris was constantly pushed out there to look stupid so that Republicans would get cocky and assume Trump would win easily, allowing Democrats to keep it close in the down-ballot races.  Nobody is put in a position as Kamala Harris has been, to be that stupid without it being on purpose. 

I hope this article reaches the eyes and ears of those who can still get on the horn and ensure voter engagement stays high.  I have some particular people in mind as I write this who do reach many people, and they read every day.  This is what we have all been working for over a long period.  This is the day.  Don’t let off the thrusters one bit.  I don’t have any compassion for Democrats.  Vote Republican.  Don’t worry about that local RINO you hate so much.  We’ll sort that out later through the marketplace of ideas.  They won’t last long in the world that is coming.  But for now, we need every last seat in every previous state that will support the MAGA agenda for Trump.  To do what we need to do as a country, we need as many MAGA supporters in as many positions as possible, from judges to mayors.  Keep voter engagement high, and don’t be suckered by Kamala’s horrendous campaign and sheer stupidity.  Nobody is that stupid; it is my offering that all of it was on purpose to instill voter suppression against Republicans by inspiring them to resist same-day voting trends that would allow Democrats to squeak by in a few places with low voter engagement.  I don’t think that will happen. Instead, I think it will be the other way around; voter engagement will be very high for Trump and all the down ballots, whereas Democrats will be very light because they won’t be able to cheat as they did in 2020.  But assume nothing until after the election.  Make it too big to rig so they can’t drag out the election for days after and allow chaos to change the results.  Make it evident that everything is known by 8 PM on election night.  And you can do that by voting so overwhelmingly that there won’t be any doubt in the coming days and months.  Don’t just talk about victory; make it happen by voting and doing so in a massive way, knowing what we’ve been through and understanding that we never want to see it again.   Take back your country one vote at a time.

‘Bulletproof’: Yes, we have a government that is willing to kill and do whatever it takes to stay in power

Jack Posobiec and his writing partner Joshua Lisec had already written one excellent book this year in Unhumans, and they were actively promoting it when the tragedy of July 13th occurred, and an assassin, a young kid, tried to kill President Trump at the now famous Butler Pennsylvania Rally.  There was a lot that instantly didn’t add up, so Jack and Joshua went instantly to write another book, Bullet Proof: The Truth About the Assassination Attempts on Donald Trump, and they rushed it to market so that voters would have an opportunity to read it before the 2024 election.  And I think everyone should read it, because what we see in Bullet Proof is the revelation of a massive crime, and a government that is criminally out of control.  There is next to no chance that the shooter, Thomas Crooks, quietly left his retirement home job and just decided one day to kill an American president with almost no social media footprint, had appeared in a BlackRock commercial, and had electronic devices that were communicating with characters all over the world.  And the chances that the Secret Service, the local police, and Homeland Security, in general, would make such a string of baffling Three Stooges-level errors that allowed the kid to climb onto a nearby roof and take shots at Trump during a rally that, thankfully missed.  But did hit members of the audience seriously, injuring them and killing one.  Crooks had help, as the book Bulletproof demonstrates.  The book is a remarkable benchmark in history that gets to the point quickly, which was why these guys rushed it to market.  A crime had been committed, a purposeful murder, and the attitude behind it was revealed in Joe Biden just days before the election when he called over 74 million Trump supporters “garbage” in frustration over how poorly Democrats were doing up and down the ticket.  And to get rid of Trump and that garbage, they used the power of government to kill and destroy whoever kept them from returning to power, which is a genuine concern we all must have once it becomes apparent just how terrible some of these people in government are.

Bulletproof is one of those books that tells a story very few want to admit to. Still, because of the not-so-recent Kennedy assassination, we knew which questions to ask immediately after the attempted Trump assassinations. There is a pattern of influence that quickly emerges, which is why President Trump is now planning to release the report on the Kennedy assassination.  Yes, the CIA was involved, and people need to know how their government behaves.  And the people who have done wrong need to be punished, especially in this recent case from Butler, Pennsylvania.  There will be a lot of crying and whining about fairness and unfairness in the coming months.  But when we hear it, understand that the noise is coming from the kind of people who openly tried to kill Trump supporters during the 2024 election and threw in jail those who stood against them.  So now we have irrefutable evidence of just how bad they are.  Bulletproof, the book proves beyond a reasonable doubt that the attempted Trump assassinations were inside jobs, and we have seen this same kind of approach done in many cases, especially school shootings.   But the Las Vegas shooter comes to mind, as well as the San Bernadino terrorist attack on that Christmas party a few years back.  Returning to Kennedy and knowing what we do now about Nixon, you quickly realize that there is a long history of this government, with many different characters who have purposely plotted the destruction of our republic’s form of government.  And until we stop them, they’ll keep doing it. 

What’s unusual here is that it is just as likely that providence played a direct role in the Trump assassination attempt in preventing it.  Several extraordinary miracles occurred to have that .223 bullet barely graze the top of Trump’s ear at just such a moment that Trump moved his head in just such a way that allowed a miss to happen.  Otherwise, Crooks had a side of the head direct shot that would have essentially decapitated President Trump a few months ahead of the election.  The kind of public assassination we had just seen with Japan’s Shinzo Abe, who was killed ironically just two years before on July 8th of 2022.  And we saw in Brazil the president there, Jair Bolsonaro, stabbed in public in an attempt to kill him.  He survived, but then we went on to watch a criminal released from jail literally to become the new president in Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva for the communists of South America put in place through massive election fraud there, as we have seen in many places in the world.  The pattern comes in the form of the dog whistle that speaks to lonely, and manipulative kids like Thomas Crooks to doing the work of the ruling thugs who hold government power, and that organizations like the CIA can manipulate these people into performing public assassinations.  It’s all part of a game of public manipulation where there is always a population sampling of radicals like the man who tried to kill Trump at his golf course in Florida, Ryan Wesley Routh, who are willing to throw their life away to perform some terrible task.  We have government people who want to hold aristocratic power all over the world and who have flourished as globalists, and they hide behind these acts of violence as isolated incidents when, in reality, they are far from isolated.  And because Trump is the kind of person he is, his force of personality exposed these people through their desperation to act.  They tried too hard and, in the process, revealed themselves, which Jack and Joshua captured nicely in their book.

This leaves us with only one choice; we have to put an end to these globalist governments and their rule over innocent, sovereign people, no matter where in the world they might reside.  Remember, many books provide irrefutable facts that Covid was a created bioweapon that was unleashed in Wuhan, China, for horrible intentions during an election year when the world was mad at Trump over his trade tariffs.  We are dealing with people in government at all levels and everywhere around the world who are perfectly fine with killing people who are in their way.  And we have to admit to ourselves before dealing with them correctly that those killers have no redeemable features.  And we must punish them and remove them from further danger.  We cannot kid ourselves and think that if we are nice to them and leave them alone, they won’t try to kill us and our elected representatives to get what they want.  Bulletproof the book is fantastic in that it reveals a significant crime quickly because there is such a history in the world that during this assassination attempt against Trump, it happened in front of too many people who witnessed it and knew to ask the right kind of questions before all the evidence went cold.  And wisely, Jack and Joshua gathered that evidence and put it in this fantastic book after a short sprint of challenging work that told the story before a primary election.  And nobody can read this book and walk away without a clear understanding of the forces we are dealing with.  It is an out-of-control, murderous government that uses human incompetence as a cover story for its truly destructive plans of global domination and easy money with mob-like control over capital markets.  And they want no challenge to their authority, no matter who it is.  And they do kill to stay in power.

Steve Bannon is Out of Jail: What happens next is the fault of those who put him there, they can only blame themselves

I’m just going to say it bluntly, I will never forgive the people who put Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro in jail during the year of 2024.  The congress that threw them in jail with a corrupt Biden DOJ were obviously crooked, but what was done, purely for political reasons was the loss of freedom for people of a respectable Trump White House.  When Bannon and Navarro were thrown in jail after spending many tens of thousands of dollars defending themselves from a prosecution that was completely politically motivated, only to end up in the disgraceful loss of personal freedom that they had to endure for more than four months in jail.  Nobody had ever gone that far before and had always respected Executive immunity when it comes to administration business.  What Eric Holder and Lois Lerner had done previously, even Barack Obama, was far worse than what Steve Bannon did, or Peter Navarro.  But the Democrats went there, and so did many Republicans who showed to the world that they might not agree with it, but did little to nothing to stop it.  These members of Trump’s Executive White House team were good people and they were thrown in jail like dogs to have to lose personal privacy completely.  Going to jail is no small matter, going to the bathroom in front of people all the time without a door to close would be terrible, and to have to do it day after day after day.  There was no reason for it and the people who did it to them can never be forgiven.  And I personally never will.  I personally like Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro, and I think the only way to make things right in the world is to prosecute their prosecutors because they started it and abused the government for their own political purposes, and they have to be paid back.

I know the Trump campaign doesn’t need nor want to get pulled into a lot of controversy, they have an election to win.  But logic says that Trump is going to be back in the White House and when he is, a lot of bad people have to be punished for what they did.  If people didn’t want a revenge tour, they never should have started it.  As I keep saying to everyone who is asking me, if they want someone to blame for what is going to happen to them, they only need to look in the mirror.  Steve Bannan as of today is now out of jail, October 29th 2024, and I’m very glad to see it.  Nobody has suffered really more than the people at the Warroom, people like Grace Chong, Mareen Bannon, and Natalie Winters who have done what they good to keep the popular podcast going while Steve, the primary host, was doing time in jail.  They have put on a brave front, but it hurt them what happened to their friends, just because they happened to run the most popular political podcast in the United States.  Looking back over the last four years, what happened to people like Sidney Powell, General Flynn, Roger Stone and Rudy Giuliani has been disgraceful, and it was all done for purely political reasons, to use the power of government to destroy people who didn’t agree with the party in power.  Never forget the mug shots of the people in Georgia for which Trump was one, who were being prosecuted for questioning the results of the election there.  And nothing more.  Remember Jenna Ellis crying like a baby in front of a judge and turning on Trump to appease those powers that were in office when we talk about revenge in the coming months and years.   It’s not just that they started it and now we have to finish it, but if we want to have a great country we must have justice and people must be punished for the bad things they did.  They don’t get to point at Trump and declare that he’s going to put his critics in jail and prosecute his political enemies when it was they who started it.  They have to be punched in the face, at the very least.

I had quite a few friends who attended the RNC Convention this year in Wisconsin and they wanted to know who I wanted them to get pictures with, and my only real response was that I thought Peter Navarro getting out of jail and going straight to speak at the RNC was one of the most important themes of this election cycle.  There are a lot of things that need to be fixed, but this weaponization of government is the key to so many horrible things that we must rectify.  When we talk about the basic Bill of Rights, they were written because humans have a tendency to do these kinds of things to each other when they gain power, and at the core of all arguments about leadership and the role government plays in society is mitigating the failure of human beings who fall off the rocker.  We cannot have a big government with too much power that can use that power against us for their own profit.  And that is what happened at the very least to Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro.  They were being forced to acknowledge a criminal government or be thrown in jail.  And to show that power over them and the general Warroom audience, they lost their freedom and were insulted with a lack of privacy.  It’s as bad as it gets aside from actually killing people.  And because the bad guys had to respect the law to some extent, they only managed to put Bannan and Navarro in jail for four months.  In other countries, they could have easily been killed.  This is exactly why we have a Second Amendment and free speech at the heart of all our law and order.  Because without those checks on government power, the government would be killing off their political rivals without fear of ever having the tables turn on them. 

It is too much to expect government to be honest.  And when people popularly elect an administration as they did with Trump and his team in the White House as Bannan and Navarro were and will be again, a government that attacks that pick of the people broke and  the law in the most fundamental way, they sought to override a government by the people for the people, and to change it into something else.  Something ominous and oppressive.  And I don’t want to hear the crying for all the paybacks that have to occur.  All those bad guys out there should thank God that so many people have been willing to turn to an election for their redemption and not grab guns and take to violence against their political enemies.  Of course, that threat is always looming in the background and it’s the only thing that keeps bad people honest.  People cannot be trusted to act on their own to do what’s right.  They must have the fear of personal destruction to keep them in check.  And in the case of what was done to the Trump team over the last four years, since the bad guys did go too far, is the tables have to be turned, otherwise there is no hope at justice for the years to come.  We cannot have a good country unless those who truly did wrong are punished.  And now that Steve Bannon is out, and the election is happening, what happens next must happen.  The bad guys are bad people for a reason.  And they cannot molest our society without consequences, and the fault for that is entirely on their shoulders.  They did it to themselves.

If You Vote for Kamala Harris You Are Stupid: Only dumb people could vote for such a loser

It’s been a while since I was last in the northern part of Ohio, right before an election.  I remember traveling through Akron in 2016, a few weeks before the election, where I was visiting a tool manufacturer, and you could tell who was voting for who.  No matter how conservative the southern part of the state was, Cleveland, for example, and the areas directly to the south, like Akron, were overwhelmingly Democrat party voting areas.  This is the land of Sherrod Brown, the multi-decade senator from Ohio who has been hard to beat over the years.  This was labor union country, they tend to endorse Democrats very vocally.  But even back then, I could tell that Trump would do well in 2016 as Ohio was considered the must-win state, almost to the point where Florida was the other.  They were considered toss-ups during that first election of Trump and, as history would show, would become strongholds for Republicans over the next decade.  And by the time we arrived in 2024, Ohio was a solid state for Trump.  No matter where you went in the state, it was mostly all Trump yard signs.  So, I was curious how Cleveland would be.  I attended a gun competition in the region just a few weeks before the election.  And I saw some Harris signs along with Sherrod Brown signs.  But it is not like I have seen them in the past.  There were a lot of Trump signs, more than in 2016, or 2020 and more people supporting Bernie Moreno than Sherrod Brown.  Even in Cleveland, people were turning away from the Democrat party.  However, there were more visible signs of Democrats in this region, a wealthy suburb of Cleveland, than in other places I have been.  And I couldn’t help but think one thing as I drove by those houses. 

Political expression is not something that should be stigmatized.  People should be able to express themselves and a political party of their choosing without ridicule and harassment.  However, Democrats are well known for harassing those who don’t believe the same things they do—so based on their behavior, when you see other people supporting Democrats vocally, with yard signs and bumper stickers all over their cars, it paints a universally obvious picture.  As I drove by all those homes outside of Cleveland and saw all the Harris signs, I couldn’t help but think one thing based on my experience with those people: they must be stupid.  Anybody consciously voting for Kamala Harris had to be stupid. There isn’t any other explanation for it.  Oddly enough, many of the homes I saw with Harris signs in them, or Sherrod Brown were large homes with a lot of property, so how could such stupid people afford such large houses?  The answer is that most of those people work or somehow benefit from significant government growth, and I don’t tend to view those kinds of jobs as legitimate.  They may be in well-paid occupations, but the type of people in those jobs are often parasites and not the most industrious.  So, of course, they supported a big looting government filled with stupid people who collectively gathered together as an oppressive force to confiscate the wealth of the hard-working and buy themselves big houses that they would put Biden/Harris signs in as registered Democrats.  But knowing what everyone now did about Kamala Harris, nobody with any brains could openly support someone like her, even under the persuasion of personal gain.  To support Kamala Harris for anything, the person must be stupid.

And as I drove by those homes, that’s all I could think of.  These weren’t the homes of people with any foundations in intelligence.  These were stupid people who needed big government to give their worthless lives meaning through force and power.  They were willing to overlook all the problems we have seen with Biden, for which Kamala Harris, an open Marxist, was the vice president.  It takes a conscious decision to put a yard sign out for display in favor of a political candidate.  And I’ve seen them in great abundance over the years on all sides.  So, we’re not talking about accepting the free expression of rival political parties here. Instead, we are just talking about dumb people who need the power of government to compensate for their sheer stupidity.  Anybody voting for Kamala Harris had to be stupid.  That was my only thought as I drove in and around Cleveland.  It wasn’t just an expression of personal gain.  It was an expression of stupidity.  Kamala Harris supporters had to be stupid.  There was no other explanation for it.  To support any Democrats is a stupid idea.  But Kamala Harris is now well known for her stupidity, and with those facts in mind, people still willingly put out yard signs in her favor in Ohio.  So it wasn’t a matter of respecting their opinion for a political belief.  But it was instead an expression of stupidity that they wished to declare to the world.  For whatever reason, they felt a need to declare to the world that stupidity for all to see.  And to do it boldly as their conduct would be forgiven for using government as a leverage against sanity. 

Of course, there were plenty of Trump signs, too.  And I was surprised to see a lot of signs in this region for Bernie Moreno.  It was encouraging to see just how many, and compared to past years, there was a lot more Trump support than I’ve seen in the past.  Knowing the kind of people who are so stupid to vote for Kamala Harris, likely the homes with signs in them are government employees such as school teachers and worthless bureaucrats in government industry.  It used to be that being a school teacher was a respected occupation, but these days, it paints a picture of an overpaid, overweight slob teaching Marxism to the next generation and demanding a fortune for the effort.  They aren’t intelligence representatives just because they are in the teaching profession.  And they reiterate that fact with their voting record.  The people with a Harris sign in their yard are government looters, not hard-working capitalists.  They are benefactors of Karl Marx’ class-based society and they vote for government power because their worthless lives would have nothing if not for such a monstrosity of imposition against personal conduct as they utilize for their benefit.  It’s not like those people with such large homes gained them through genius in business.  They obtained them through the force of government to steal through others with taxes and to benefit the lazy and stupid with large incomes they don’t deserve.  And because they are stupid, they were audacious in displaying their support for a candidate as flawed as Kamala.  Because only someone stupid could vote for a person who is so dumb, it’s not a matter of respecting different opinions.  It’s simply overlooking sheer stupidity in the face of reality and witnessing an arrogance that is out of step with the future the way that only dumb people would find appropriate.  And as hard to believe as it is, there are supporters for Kamala Harris.  And those that are can only be explained to be that way because they are stupid.

Democrats Do Not Respect Civilian Oversight: The disaster of Kamala Harris skipping the Al Smith Dinner

As we get down the stretch of the 2024 election, the big takeaway and primary reason that many Democrats have peeled away from the party only to join Republicans is that a ruse has been exposed that was long concealed.  Democrats with a foundation of Marxism never respected voters’ opinions.  They ultimately adopted the globalist policy of rigged elections to gain and hold power.  They never intended to win people over with a compelling argument about their political platform.  Their entire political strategy has been essentially high school politics; you were either a cool kid or weren’t.  And if that were the case, then you would be cast from society, a society they controlled.  No, what they lost most over the last four years has been their brand.  Nobody wants to be one of the cool kids if what you get is a Democrat.  That was particularly revealing when Tulsi Gabbard announced at a recent Trump rally that she was joining the Republican Party.  Trump has been fantastic at opening up the big tent of the Republican Party in ways that no other Republican in history could have, leaving it indeed a party of the Americans.  When you consider that Robert F. Kennedy joined Trump’s campaign with the intention of a critical position in the White House and Elon Musk suddenly became a Tea Party kind of Republican, the Trump campaign has just been fantastic down the stretch.  Trump has done everything that could be done to bring people into support of him, especially with people of color and among the immigrant population.  There have been a lot of great moments, but I think one of the best will be remembered by the Al Smith Dinner of 2024, where Trump was brilliantly funny.  Most of all, he showed up, but Kamala Harris didn’t. 

Democrats are playing a game they thought would work, and it is consistent with their actions over the past three or four decades.  But Trump exposed it with all his persuasive live performances, especially at the Al Smith Dinner.  When Trump went to the one in 2016, Hillary Clinton was there, and she went and spoke.  She didn’t do very well, but she figured it didn’t matter at that time.  The machine would win for her, so she showed up and did her part.  Trump was great that year, too, but this time, he was outstanding.  But Kamala Harris didn’t show up, and instead sent in a video with a kind of Saturday Night Live skit to help carry Kamala over the top.  Democrats are like that kid who didn’t study for the big test and showed up expecting to cheat on someone’s paper.  Democrats weren’t prepared to run a real campaign for power in America.  They counted exclusively on election theft to win, like all the other Marxist countries in the world presently do, and they were so disrespectful about it that they picked a candidate in Kamala Harris who would do whatever they told her to and run her campaign from concealment the entire time.  Because they have such little respect for the democratic process and the self-government concept of Americans in general, they were not able to compete when Trump made the campaign truly about competency and representation.  The strategies of personal destruction suddenly didn’t work at all with Trump because he didn’t need the Democrats to crown him one of the “cool kids.”  He already was one.  Trump has changed the definition of a cool kid over the last eight years.

The Al Smith Dinner was embarrassing for Kamala Harris because it was so out of step with the nature of the 2024 campaign.  There was no compelling argument to make on behalf of Democrats, causing them to leave the party, such as what Tulsi Gabbard and many others have done.  Just think about how many people have done the same thing all across the country, and they know what will happen in this election.  Now that the close of the election is near, even the big media outlets understand what will happen.  They tried to run the same closet campaign for Kamala that they did for Biden the first time, but people aren’t buying into it.  There is no COVID to cover for their massive attempts at election fraud, and most anybody who isn’t a crazy lunatic of anti-American sentiment is voting for Trump.  And as I have said all along, it will all come down to engagement.  Trump has engaged voters who are excited to vote for him.  Kamala Harris has a few fringed cat ladies and a hamster.  But nobody else.  Trump will break into the seventy millions.  Kamala will be lucky to get out of the sixties.  Trump will win the popular vote because there won’t be the same opportunities to cheat that were so common in 2020.  And the Democrats are panicking over it.  Even CNN has figured out that they will have egg on their face if they support Kamala, who had a particularly disastrous performance there, too, with Anderson Cooper.  When the smoke clears from this one, people will wonder how so many people got it all wrong, and they’ll point to that disastrous Al Smith Dinner with the video contribution by a weird Saturday Night Live skit as the root cause. 

I know quite a few Secret Service Agents, and they report that they can’t see the forest for the trees.  Even with all that I have said, they fear that Kamala Harris will win anyway because they genuinely think the “machine” of politics is truly in charge.  And I tell them they are too close to the situation to be objective.  But plenty of people want to argue with me and believe that Kamala Harris will win as a propped-up asset of the machine, and she thinks so, too.  That is until she was heckled at a recent rally where people broke out into a Trump chant, and she became furious about it.  I hear what everyone says about the machine being in charge.  But in America, that is not acceptable, and Trump has done everything that can be done to unite the country behind the Republican Party, which will have a significant impact up and down the ticket in general for all races.  I see significant losses for Democrats that will wipe them out generationally and even perhaps as a viable political party.  After all this, they may join the Whigs in history as they don’t represent the American people but a globalist ideology that most people find repulsive once they find out what it is.  And the Democrats were exposed through competition for really the first time.  Voters have been looking for someone like Trump to expose this shell game for a long time, and essentially, this is the first time that the stress fractures exposed Democrats for what they have always been hiding.  And it was never more evident than when Kamala Harris skipped the Al Smith Dinner in 2024, even with Chuck Schumer sitting right next to the podium where the speeches were given.  In a friendly venue, she couldn’t even perform there.  But Trump did, and did it very well, leaving no doubt who the winner of the presidency would be.  And history will never forget it.

The Ruthlessness of Smiling Faces: What people are really up to

First of all, even though I am talking about a recent fast draw competition with the Ohio Fast Draw guys in Ohio, I am not talking about that event, but many other things that are relevant in ways that aren’t always so obvious.  Human nature is what it is, and all things are applicable.  But this particular example is appropriate across the tapestry of competition.  And to that point, I am used to extreme ruthlessness in human nature.  I don’t see the smiles that people provide to disarm your sensibilities as being innocent.  I see the worst in people because that’s my experience based on years of opinion.  So, when I attended a recent Ohio Fast Draw competition in Cleveland, I went out in support for the group because the attendance was dropping, and I wanted to boost the membership with my presence.  But from my point of view, it was hard in the second half of the year to attend the events, starting with the one in August, which I missed.  It was a late night with many good GOP people, including Bernie Moreno, Warren Davidson, George Lang, and many others, and we stayed way too late listening with a VIP perspective to a Jason Aldean concert.  I didn’t get on the road in time to get to Cleveland, which broke my routine for the year.  Up until that point, I had attended all the Ohio Fast Draw competitions.  But August, September, and the rest of the year until Christmas are too busy for me.  My goal for the year was to get to all the Ohio Fast Draw competitions and show my support for them.  But once I missed the one in August, it bothered me to have that intention disrupted.

My gun minutes before a competition

I learned at the next event I did manage to get to that other shooters were not unhappy that I did not show up.  I had been winning many trophies, and people felt that because I wasn’t there, they’d get a better chance to win themselves.  I didn’t let it bother me because I like the people who are typically in Fast Draw.  I understand and respect the ruthlessness of human nature.  So, I put those thoughts into a category of their own to deal with as I saw fit.  Even so, I tried hard to make the next competition to support the organization.  I didn’t have time for it.  I didn’t need any more trophies for the year.  I just wanted to see attendance grow, not recede.  I think Fast Draw should be a sport that more people participate in; it’s better than golf, bowling, or other competitive events.  But a lot of young people these days don’t know much about gun fighting because it’s not part of their cultural experience, as more woke activities have become part of their lives.  So, I am interested in seeing organizations like Ohio Fast Draw survive well into the future, and I would like to see them grow in popularity.  But when I showed up to the most recent Cleveland event, I was already strung well too thin, and didn’t have the time to give.  I attended to support friends.  I was disappointed that I wasn’t very welcome and that many of them hoped I wouldn’t show up.  Now, things get murky because people often don’t say what they really mean.  And they usually hide malicious intent behind appearing helpful.  So people think that what they believe deep within themselves is hidden from the outside world and that nobody really knows what’s going on if they don’t admit to something.  Well, I know everything that goes on.  I understand every aspect of human nature, so nothing stays hidden from me.  I know what is going on with everyone at all times.  And it wasn’t hard for me to figure out what was happening when I arrived at the Cleveland competition. 

In Fast Draw, severe rules for activity on the firing line, safety, and other considerations are rigorous.  Some of the more competitive people in these events go crazy when they hear a cell phone and people whisper in the background while shooting.  They get mad at every little distraction.  So, given that context, I thought it was highly unusual that at my gun check at this event, there was so much concern over my gun having a sticky trigger.  I didn’t ask for any advice; it was the same gun I had used to win several competitions that year, and it worked well for me.  But many Fast Draw shooters perform a lot of work on their guns, hoping to give themselves a slight edge in speed.  So it mystifies them that I use a mostly stock gun and that it has a heavy hammer pull.  Now, given some of the people involved in volunteering to tear my gun apart looking for a problem that wasn’t there, I thought being friendly and respectful was more important than showing anger that I was missing the opportunity to practice before the competition started.  I think they were genuinely trying to be helpful.  But I also felt that something more malicious was going on, and the longer it went on, the more angry I got. 

At the end of a lot of work, several shooters offered to loan me a gun to shoot with that day, which, on the surface, appeared helpful.  But they all know what distractions and changing anything on the firing line do to the process.  So, I found it disrespectful to see that they had made a point to look like helpful behavior to sabotage my approach to shooting in that competition.  I didn’t ask for help.  I didn’t want any help.  And I would have rather been left alone because there was more going on than trying to appear helpful.  The combined efforts were an attempt at sabotage because as the day progressed, it became pronounced that I was the center of many of their thoughts, and they had prepared for that event with an intention against me personally.  Here’s the deal: I won a lot at these competitions because of my shooting method, not because of the tricks of the gun or luck.  My times are consistently good because I shoot close to the hip in a fashion that looks slower to go fast.  And the frustration against me has been that I look like I’m not trying to go fast all the time and shoot in the .300s and even .200s.  I could, but in Ohio Fast Draw, missing the target would become more common, and you would get penalized for missing.  You are judged on speed and accuracy.  I ended up doing OK for the day.  The worries about my gun and the overall process of the day did have an impact, but I worked through it.  Part of the benefit of competitions like that is that learning to manage stress under tremendous pressure is the real takeaway.  So I thought it was a positive experience.  But I was very disappointed to see that so many of those other shooters were happy to see me having a bad day.  They wanted it, which was a good lesson that applies to most things.  It’s the way people are.  You hope that people will overcome that natural tendency.  But Fast Draw is meant to be ruthless, and people being friendly to each other is only a cosmetic ruse for their true intentions.  While I wanted to think more about people, it wasn’t enjoyable to see where their minds were.  The main rule in gun fighting competitions is that you don’t point out every little rule that might distract a shooter on the line, then break all those rules to gain personal advantage.  That behavior might help a person win a few times here and there.  However, it will destroy the initiative of any future shooters who want to take up the sport and grow in a positive direction.  This is precisely why attendance this year has been light and is only getting worse.  When it comes to human behavior, I don’t miss anything, and the moral to the story in this case is that a short-sighted win only hurts the future, which is becoming obvious to everyone.

I expect ruthlessness out of people.  And again, I’m talking about more than my experiences with the Ohio Fast Draw Association.  I would like to relax and spend time with people of common interest in shooting sports.  But often as it is in most things in life, you don’t get what you want.  You get what you get, and you either deal with it, or you are crushed by it.  So with that in mind, don’t try to hide ruthless behavior through a thin veil of helpfulness.  I see it all for what it is, at every level that it’s presented.  There is nothing about human nature, or action, that I do not see. And I see it in ways that most people even hide from themselves. There’s a reason I don’t say much to anybody, it’s because I am perpetually let down by other people all the time and I don’t expect much out of them.  And I don’t ask much of anybody because I don’t want them to have to lie to me when they have no intention to live up to my expectations. I have to manage my disappointment in people by limiting how much I interact with them.  But never think I’m not going to see the truth that is really there looming in the background.  Even if it’s just a shooting sport in recreation, or if it’s millions of dollars at stake.  It’s all the same game played by all the same kind of people for all the same reasons.  People in life want the least path to success with the least effort.  And they hate people who work hard and develop themselves skillfully.  As I have said many times, which is a big feature of my book, The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business, “Rules are made by the losers of the world to give them an advantage over the competent.”  And as much as I know that rule to be the fact of life, it does bother me each time it is confirmed true by reality.

Trump is Doing a Rally at Madison Square Gardens: Kamala is so bad, nobody will ever believe she could win

The differences couldn’t have been more clear between President Trump and the ridiculously disastrous presentation of Kamala Harris than at the Al Smith Dinner in New York in October 2024.  Trump was hilarious and spoke well. He attended the live show that traditionally invites both candidates to speak during election campaigns and raise charity money.  While Trump showed that he could have a sense of humor, he demonstrated beyond any reasonable doubt that he isn’t afraid to go into the lair of a beast and to slay it directly.  He was very tough on Chuck Schumer when he told him that “because Democrats are so woke, that if Kamala doesn’t win, that he could still be the first woman president.”  Trump also lit up the former mayor, Bill de Blasio, without any pretense of being friendly.  He doesn’t like him and Trump made it quite clear.  It was a very emotional evening, just a few weeks before voters decided on the direction of America, which indicated a Trump win.  And with all the stakes present, Kamala Harris didn’t go, as she has shown real difficulty in doing live events.  Kamala, as the sitting Vice President, had so little faith in herself and her staff that she recorded a video and sent that to the event, which was horrendous.  Kamala couldn’t do that by herself; instead, she brought in a Saturday Night Live comedian to do most of the talking, which was embarrassing.  Seeing how little Kamala’s team thinks of us was a shame.  But then again, it confirms what we have all suspected all along.  That they believe invisible hands control our presidency and that they don’t have to do events like the Al Smith Dinner.  They can win the presidency anyway with tricks and election fraud. 

So, one of two things is going to happen.  The Kamala Harris team is either dumber than anybody thought or completely tone-deaf to reality, and they will lose in a fiery crash.  Or we have no control over our election system and are going to have to take back our country with physical force.  Trump has gone all in and is putting such an exclamation point on the entire race, pulling well ahead of Kamala in early polling, that he has booked Madison Square Gardens as a campaign rally location.   Internal polling shows that Trump has a chance in areas that typically Republicans don’t, and Kamala is so bad that he believes he has a chance.  Trump even held a rally recently in California, where over 100,000 people showed up.  Kamala has struggled with all live performances, including Bret Baier on Fox News.  The more she spoke, the worse she did, and the public could see how phony she was.  This has left the door open for Trump to dominate in public appearances with no real competition for the public’s need for leadership. The choice couldn’t have been more stark.  So Trump has done the boldest thing possible and gone to places where he was at risk of being rejected, and Madison Square Gardens in downtown Manhattan is one of those statement rallies.  For Trump to fill the arena when Kamala Harris couldn’t even come close is more than just spiking the football after a tough election.  It’s a declaration of winning this election in a “too big to rig” fashion because nobody will believe it if Kamala Harris suddenly wins the election when she couldn’t even show up in a friendly setting to do the Al Smith Dinner. 

With Trump booking Madison Square Gardens, he is filling a venue that psychologically has deep roots in the American mind as one of the largest in the world, and as they used to say about New York, if you can make it there, you can make it anywhere.  And this assumption that New York is off limits to any Republican is being challenged by Trump.  Should things be the way many fear and Kamala Harris did win the presidency with serious election fraud, people will never believe it.  With Trump filling Madison Square Gardens for a rally to hear him speak, when Kamala couldn’t fill a kid’s pool, is a statement to make this election all about too big to rig.  By Trump filling that massive building on the most significant stage in the world, he is essentially showing that he has done all he can do and more to present an opportunity for authentic leadership to the American people.  And they are voting by attending his rallies.  Meanwhile, the real trouble lurking in the background has been exposed, and traditionally, to cover their menace, they have relied on control over the media and public sentiment to hide their ruse.  And under tremendous pressure, they have not been able to answer because Trump has been so good.  Going into the stretch of the election season, Kamala and her people couldn’t answer the call because of the way they have been selling communism to people for decades.  And now it was all coming down around them right in the heart of Democrats’ politics at its core, New York City, first with the Al Smith Dinner, then Trump speaking at Madison Square Gardens.  That the same people who swapped out Joe Biden and put in Kamala Harris think they have that much control over the American people tells you everything you need to know.

Trump, going to New York in the last weeks of the election, says he is confident in the battleground states, especially Pennsylvania and Georgia.  Interestingly, Florida and Ohio aren’t even toss-up states anymore, and Democrats aren’t even trying to maintain the illusion.  This is a stark difference now than it was in prior elections.  If it used to be hard for Republicans to win any election, what Trump has done is flip the script entirely on Democrats, and now the uphill battle is ultimately on their shoulders.  As it looks now, Trump is set to have a blowout win over Kamala Harris and the Democrat Party in general.  They have run out of runway.  Nobody even believes that Joe Biden won his seat.  The Democrat Party has only confirmed the suspicions by the way they have treated him once he showed that he wasn’t going to be able to beat Trump and replaced him with Kamala.  Then, under tremendous pressure at the Al Smith Dinner, knowing they were struggling to sell their message in an honest election, they turned to Saturday Night Live to attempt to sell Kamala to the public.  And it wasn’t working.   So Trump booked Madison Square Gardens to make the election too big to rig.  No matter what happens with digital voting machines and drop boxes, nobody in the aftermath can steal this election.  That doesn’t mean they won’t try.  And if they did present the world with Kamala Harris the way they removed Joe Biden without any votes and tried to give America that mess, clearly Trump has been the president over the last four years, and he was being elected by the people once again.  And that’s why booking Madison Square Gardens was so important.  Suppose they try to give us Kamala Harris on election day. In that case, nobody will believe she won, and a war will be more than merited against forces of tyranny that have seeped into our system of government that can’t be dealt with any other way than by force.  Because we tried peaceful elections, and the Democrats didn’t respect it.

What We Learned From the ILA Strike: We need more automation and robots to do the work that lazy people won’t do

Most things that are wrong in our modern economy is the fault of communism; it’s the process of thinking that comes from the ridiculously stupid philosophy of Karl Marx.  And that’s precisely what the International Longshoremen’s Association was during a recent strike, raw communism.  When it comes to these unions, notice they always start with “international.”  These are not American efforts rooted in capitalism.  They are globalist enterprises.  A few weeks ago, the dockworkers at ports of entry for shipping all along the east coast down into the Gulf along Texas walked off the job, which essentially crippled American infrastructure and it was all over pay.  This forced the shipping companies to throw a lot of money at those losers to prevent a complete halt of our economy, which amounted to an average of 4 dollars per hour for each six-year contract with an opportunity to raise wages by 62% over the life of the contract, which previously had an upward pay scale of $39 per hour or 81K per year.  And that is on straight time.  In truth, many of these people are making 300K per year once they had the overtime before this strike, so these dock workers are getting rich off an extortion racket that is essential to the American infrastructure and economy.  Their malicious timing was to perform this strike while a weak president, Joe Biden, was sleeping on the beach before Trump’s next term. They took advantage of the situation while they could and put everyone at risk with a hostile attack on our supply chain. It was reprehensible on a good day and detrimental in their intent and malice.  Fortunately, people learned pretty quickly what the leaders of the strike were up to; they were living in mansions and were not hurting for money for a job that wasn’t that skilled.  In the vacuum of a communist bubble, they had thought themselves something better than what they were, and they took advantage of America for their benefit, and it’s disgusting. 

I don’t like union workers of any kind on a good day.  I think they are worthless slugs rooted in Marxist ideology and have no place in American society.  I know these days, many union workers are breaking away from their leadership and voting for Trump for president, which makes us all friendly under a big tent of politics these days.  But it doesn’t change what they are.  Trump has successfully dealt with unions as a builder, and if you have a good personality, you can deal with reasonable people. Most of the time, union workers think they are doing right.  They don’t think of themselves as communists or detriments to society.  However, as a mob of insurgents who threatened to take away the need for labor if they didn’t collectively get what they wanted, everything they were was born on the pages of Karl Marx.  I think it should be illegal and punishable with years in jail to walk off a job that is critical to American economic infrastructure.  If I didn’t know the teaching profession was so worthless, I’d associate that field with the same sentiment.  But teacher unions have made themselves worthless with their brand of Democrat politics baked into everything they do, which is useless to a conservative family with children attending a school.  From top to bottom, there is no place for communism in our labor force, and the ILA didn’t care.  They wanted to take advantage of desperate people to extract even more money from the process while political disorder was a raging fire.  And what they did will cost us a lot more money in terms of shipping costs.

I don’t respect these ILA workers or most union jobs.  I have seen firsthand how unions destroy a company, and I have been in many fist fights in parking lots myself for breaking strikes in what they call a SCAB.  I, for the fun of it, made a living breaking strikes, one at a company in Cincinnati called Cincinnati Milacron, which is no longer there because of radicalized unions, and a company that built conveyor belts in the 90s for Amazon, well before anybody knew what Amazon was.  I was never one to join with group behavior, and when I disagreed with the behavior, the union stewards wanted to fight, which they regretted.  Many people from my past are ashamed of what they did and what I did to them, just to put it nicely.  I could tell stories about some of these antics that sometimes got bloody for quite a long time.  So, my hatred for these labor unions runs very deep.  To say I hate them isn’t a strong enough word.  But I do have much experience as a blue-collar worker, and I’ve watched the crane operations at the shipping docks who just went on strike, and I can say that it’s an easy job.  Certainly not worth 300K per year.  I’ve done lots of comparable work with cranes and jigs with very expensive hardware, and while it takes some skill to operate, it’s not worth the kind of money these unions extract for it.  They are only paid so much because companies fear through radicalism that all the workers will collectively leave their jobs and cause a work stoppage.  Even though Trump has successfully dealt with unions, everyone who has dealt with them can’t hide the fact that collective bargaining agreements harm enterprises by making them too expensive or taking too much time to do the task.  And very little good comes from a unionized workforce. 

One of those stories I could tell involved three union stewards who thought they were tough guys and wanted to fight me in an empty parking lot near our plant at 3 PM when the first shift ended.  I guess they didn’t think I’d show up, and let me say politely, they didn’t win.  The whole plant showed up to watch the fight, which was very embarrassing for the union stewards.  And that particular plant, once management figured out that the union couldn’t be dealt with, shut down within six months.  I knew it then, and I know it especially now: unions had no place in America, and they were dying.  And that is certainly true today.  Already, robots could do a much better job than many of the crane operators working these docks, and they never call off work or get sick.  Labor in an economy is always needed, but that labor doesn’t need to be a human.  It needs to be intelligent, and with A.I. these days, they are far more intelligent than these dock worker slugs.  I’ve known them from personal experience, and believe me, if you pay them more than $10 an hour, you are paying them too much.  Unions have made themselves worthless, which is the case with the ILA strike.  It only lasted a few days, but it shouldn’t have happened at all.  I would encourage all those companies involved in shipping to invest in robots for their future work.  And don’t waste your time on these slugs that affect our economy.  There is no reason these days to overpay for labor and to throw money at these people.  The ILA strike broke once people realized how much money these employees made.  America was not sympathetic.  They just wanted their stuff shipped to them to arrive.  Globalism has given these international unions leverage through a monopoly status.  And it’s time we change that, for good, with automation and robotics.

The Biggest Thing to Ever Happen to the Human Race: SpaceX performed perfectly with Starship 5

In many ways, the spectacular Super Heavy Booster catch at the SpaceX facility was more significant than when the Berlin Wall came down.  Much more important, politically, scientifically, and philosophically.   It was an awesome display of what human minds can achieve when unleashed, and to say the least, the door to human colonization of space was just kicked wide open.  On an even larger scale, the pages of Karl Marx might as well have been burnt as the most inefficient system of government management ever created.  Capitalism was and will always be the means of managing people and their finances for the future as this incredible event occurred just a few weeks away from the 2024 election, where essentially those are the two choices: abundant capitalism from a sovereign American market or global communism ran by the United Nations.  Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX, gets it.  I was probably the first person in the world, including himself, to see Musk turn hard to Republican elected officials as he had in the past been an enthusiastic supporter of Barack Obama and Biden.  I chronicled his change by the kind of books he was reading and pointed it out well before he seemed to have figured it out.  Communism doesn’t work, and it was overt communism that had been holding back this fantastic event of the launch of Starship 5 from Boca Chica, Texas, and the Starbase there with FAA permits that were holding everything up with massive government bureaucracy.   Once they finally had their permit, under tremendous public pressure, the FAA had no choice really; the SpaceX team launched, for the first time in all history, the largest vehicle ever to go into space and have controlled landings in two different locations precisely over their targets, all automated and coming off without a problem.  The countdown to launch was exact and on point, and we saw what routine spaceflights over the coming years would look like. 

America has a choice to make that is very positive: elect President Trump and get a whole lot more toward a massively expanding economy as what people saw from SpaceX on October 13th, 2024.  As I watched the Super Heavy Booster carry Starship into space to land in the Indian Ocean about an hour later, the giant thing the size of a skyscraper turned around and landed back at the same pad it had just launched from.  It returned to earth to be captured by the Megazilla chopsticks at the launch pad precisely and smoothly.  I first thought that we needed to work out the property rights issue that would arise as we settled into space.  The world is getting ready to go through a gold rush similar to what America experienced during westward expansion, and the governing principle will have to be flamboyant capitalism to pull it all off.  One of the very first things that the new Trump administration will have to do is protect property rights on the Moon and other celestial bodies.  It will have to be American economic standards that the rest of the world will have to live up to because we will be the first to arrive and set up colonies.  Starship will make moving into space a practical reality and an economy that will quickly outperform anything ever done on earth, including coal, oil, railroads, shipping, and telecommunications.  We are talking about trillions and trillions of dollars of economic value.  But it’s not about making money that matters; it’s expanding human intellect, and the only way to do that is to embrace capitalism and human expansion into space.  A lot is about to change for the better because of what SpaceX did.  The personal journey that Elon Musk has made politically, out of necessity, is one that the rest of the world will now have to embrace—especially communist China.

While the FAA and other government regulatory agencies were trying to protect environmental concerns in the cooling system of SpaceX launches, and California announced a ban of any Elon Musk launch into space from their state entirely due to his political beliefs, China is plotting to carry their communist nation into space with very aggressive plans.  So, America must be the first to enter these vast realms and establish the ground rules.  The moon needs to be viewed as another continent in our neighborhood that is about the size of Africa, and humans will inevitably go there and use it as a staging platform for expansion into the solar system.  All the typical political models of the past are suddenly irrelevant, which is evident behind the Trump campaign in America.  So many people have come together under Trump, including Elon Musk, that a new direction for the entire world has just unfolded, and the proof of what is possible was just shown by the Super Heavy rocket that landed precisely at a spaceport like something from a science fiction concept.  Only this wasn’t fiction; it was fact.  Over one hundred years of science fiction and fantasy were being engineered into reality, and an explosion of intellect was thrust onto the world stage.  All past philosophies, except vivacious capitalism, would be inappropriate for embracing these massive changes. 

I’ve been a fan of SpaceX for a long time now, and I cheer them on with each launch. They have achieved some new and fantastic engineering breakthroughs.  But I did not expect that Super Heavy Booster to return to the launch pad to be captured like that.  And to answer everyone catching up, why do they have to capture that rocket with the chopsticks? Well, that’s because the Super Heavy Rocket weighs 250 tons, and it would add too much weight to the craft to have legs on it like they do their Falcon rockets.  (the Falcon rockets are named after the Millennium Falcon from Star Wars, by the way, which demonstrates what impact science fiction can have on making it into science reality)  The chopsticks on Mechazilla (also named after the massive mechanical monster in Godzilla movies) are a means to take that pressure away from the Super Heavy craft and place it back on its launch stand to be refueled and relaunched within hours.  See what’s going on here?  The new Giga factory for Starship there at the Spaceport in Texas is planning to build 1000 Star Ships per year, and launches will go up every day, several times a day, to take massive amounts of payload and people into space to live as a routine part of human existence.  Fueled by science fiction books and movies, the imaginations of many brilliant people have found a home under Elon Musk, and now they need an economic system that can unleash their vast potential.  And communism was never going to be it.  The pressure of performance under the upcoming Trump administration will change the world for the better in ways that most aren’t ready for.  But what SpaceX did on Sunday, the 13th of October, was life-changing.  I would say it was more significant than the moon landing because of what it does to the economy of space.  No longer would countries control the realm of space, but it would be the laws of economic reality, imagination, and ambition.  The human race demands autonomy and freedom to think, contemplate, and invent.  And Starship by SpaceX is the means to achieve the greatness of the human race under the potential of capitalism for thousands of years in the future.  And it all starts with a proven concept, which SpaceX has done.  Now, it needs a political system that can make it happen, and that comes with the election of President Trump.

‘Melania’: A book review, the power behind the President

I said I couldn’t wait to read Melania Trump’s new book, so when it came out during the first week of October 2024, I read it just for pleasure.  Then, I reread it a few more times for the perspective it was trying to communicate because I think of it as something quite extraordinary.  Not just because it is the hottest-selling book in the world right now but also because it was a well-placed October surprise of its own from the Trump campaign, a brilliant strategy to soften Trump’s image to women and independents.  Without question, the purpose of the book Melania was to be a campaign platform from her perspective to say to the world, “Vote for Donald Trump; if things get a little too crazy, he listens to me.  And you can trust me.”  I believe he does listen to her more than anybody has been led to believe.  I’ve had a chance to meet Melania a few times and have wondered about her marriage to President Trump.  Melania is the same age as my wife, so I understand her background.  My wife was also a model, so I knew what that work was like.  Melania took the business to a new level in high society by modeling in Paris and New York, which put her in contact with one of the world’s most successful people, Donald Trump.  But Trump was the age of my wife’s parents, so it would be weird to have the in-laws over for dinner but to have them be the same age as the husband.  So I, along with everyone else, wondered what there could be for a woman like Melania to have a husband like Trump, given the age difference.  And I’d say that this book, Melania, answered all those questions quite well.  And it said a lot more.  However, she is very optimistic about why she married President Trump when she could have had access to just about any man on earth. What attracted her to Trump is that he is one of the best examples of the power of positive thinking in the world.  And as a couple, that is what brought them together.

When he met Melania, Trump collected beautiful women like baseball cards and lived his best life as a New York high society playboy.  However, at that time, Trump was going through a maturing phase.  That playboy life is good for telling your enemies what a magnificent person you are with beautiful women on your arm to convey the sentiment, but it doesn’t make a very good life partner.  In Melania, Trump saw in her a beautiful woman who was very smart and optimistic and who he could partner with.  She made him better, which is quite evident in the book, as what Melania got out of the relationship is a path to inner peace, as she is very private.  Trump also got someone who was very positive, had never been crushed in life before, and who he could bounce off of in positive ways.  She was not a drag on his active lifestyle but enhanced it.  And that relationship carried over into the White House in very positive ways.  President Trump’s White House was very classy, and because of Melania, she maintained an administration that allowed him to be everywhere all the time and still have a White House that broadcast excellence to all who visited and certainly raised the level of expectation as to what it meant to America. 

Here’s a poll for you. They can’t keep Melania’s book in stock at Target. But they can’t give away Kamala’s or Hillary’s. I took this picture the day of this article and watched this shelf all week. Melania’s has refilled several times. None of the other books moved.

Melania is an immigrant who is very proud to become an American citizen and achieve what she has in life.  What’s unique about a couple like Trump and Melania is that older relationships usually don’t center on the value of being bedmates but on actually helping each other achieve common goals.  Marriage has been so trashed by the vile elements of our present society that very few people in the modern media can relate to what a healthy relationship even looks like.  So they assumed Melania slept her way to the top because she was beautiful.  But that was not the case.  Melania Trump is not just another pretty face.  She’s very classy, sophisticated, independent (fiercely), and she’s brilliant.  And again, knowing she’s the same age as my wife, and I see it in her eyes, Melania is still a rebel fashion model from Slovenia who has always nurtured a spark of defiance that she never put away.  She has raised her son Barron and is now an empty nester with a husband who has been harassed and nearly killed many times now. After the FBI raided her home and invaded her privacy, she decided to be more of an active part of the campaign.  And with a fashion sense for the extraordinary, she waited until now to pitch herself for the White House, to finish what she started in her own right.  The book Melania is a job application, taking readers through her many experiences and asking voters to give her a chance to do much more in a second term, which she wants to do.  Trump isn’t dragging her along.  Melania Trump likes helping people, and now, with a grown son, she is ready to be a mother to America and bring health to a country that could use pure love and care. 

This book was distinctly different as I read Melania, which is put together like many books from former first ladies I have read over the years.  Because Melania is such a unique person, it was interesting to get her report of some of the world’s most extraordinary events, especially in the final year of their first term, from the perspective of the White House, the year of Covid and election fraud where Melania showed that rebel side of herself more than a few times.  By the time you add the assassination attempts against her husband, the lawfare, the impeachments, the January 6th incident, and her first-hand report on most of the influential people around the world, you come away from this book with a real sense of something extraordinary going on in the world.  And Melania Trump, through her good looks and grace, has been able to elevate the human race in ways never before.  It all points back to the power of positive thinking, as represented by Melania Trump’s Be Best initiative.  Melania wants to help the world be better and looks forward to President Trump’s second term in the White House.  She isn’t being drugged into it, but I would say that if not for Melania, President Trump would still be Donald Trump, the entertainment mogul and splashy media personality.  He’d be successful.  But he wouldn’t have ever been president.  Nor would he be trying to do it again.  Melania Trump is the secret sauce in the background with very high standards.  She wants those high standards returned to the United States because she genuinely loves America as an immigrant.  And she wants to bring that love to many people for all the right reasons. Her book, Melania, is an extraordinary collection of thoughts and a strategic necessity for the Trump campaign in the final weeks of a long election journey.  And I can’t recommend it enough.
