Casey DeSantis is Taking Over her husband’s Campaign: Nothing she or anybody does will help, the real issue is in the Halderman Report

It probably wouldn’t have been obvious if I didn’t get a chance to see them up close and personal. It’s what you learn when you meet people in real life rather than the images you get from the media. But when I did get to see Ron DeSantis and his wife Casey in real life, my impression from that experience was that she wanted to move into the White House more than he did. So it was no surprise that with flat-lined poll numbers, it was reported this past week that Casey DeSantis would take a more active role in managing her husband’s campaign. And what is ridiculous about that statement is that she thinks she can do something to help him resonate with the Trump voters to get them to jump to her husband’s campaign. All this happened after the Trump indictment in Florida, where the early indicators are that he is gaining even more support. Most people understand what the real fight is that we are fighting, where international crime syndicates that have essentially paid off the world governments really run the show, and nationalism, American nationalism, is their primary target. Ron DeSantis has been a good governor in Florida, but he’s certainly not good enough to fight off the bad guys in the world without Trump to protect him. And essentially, he owes any success has had to Trump for sucking up all the energy in the room to allow such a nice guy as DeSantis is, even to be governor of Florida in the first place. The DeSantis family was nice and would be nice people to have in the White House in a sane world. But we are not a rational world; we are at war, and some people have been slow to realize that, so they are supporting DeSantis for president rather than Trump. But that minority is not going to expand. There is no path for people to suddenly look at Ron DeSantis and say, “he’s my guy.” More people in consulting firms should know that, but obviously, they don’t. 

So what’s wrong with Ron, the consultants who work the Beltway avenues, I’m sure, are wondering? It was obvious to me upon seeing Ron and his wife in person. I didn’t say much about it at the time. I know the people who brought DeSantis to West Chester, Ohio, were proud of getting a presidential candidate to Butler County, Ohio. At our local Lincoln Day Dinner every year, the Butler County Republican Party has done an excellent job of bringing very high-end people to speak at that dinner, and Ron was one of the latest. I appreciated the setting to get to know the people personally, so that kind of thing is very valuable.   But for me, the only person that belongs in the race for the White House is President Trump. There is revenge for what was done to him and all his supporters in 2020 that could only be set right with another term, and that was the end of the story. For those not following things closely, there is a Halderman Report from Georgia confirming that votes can be altered through digital voting machines. Raffensperger hid it from the public, which is a conspiracy. Many people must be punished for that rigged election, and re-elected Trump to the office he should have had is the minimum payment that the public will accept. 

At our event in Butler County, Ron and his wife did something odd; we were there to hear him speak, but she joined him on stage, and they did something like a roundtable where they talked about things they thought the public wanted to know. I thought Casey DeSantis was a very nice and beautiful woman. And she came across as resilient and smart. But she also reminded me of a Tupperware salesman who was still very young, not much older than my kids, and she and her husband had a lot to learn about how the world worked. And the more they talked, the more obvious it was that they were both still just kids and that they weren’t nearly ready for the kind of fight that is out there in the world. I watched Casey closely; she was very media savvy, largely because she had been an anchorwoman on television. She knew where the camera was and how to present herself to it, probably a little too well. That left it looking like she and her husband had found themselves ill-advised about their chances for the White House, and she was obviously more excited about it than her husband. That’s what was evident to me at that Butler County event. Afterward, people asked me if I was ready to support Ron for President, and I said no. But now, for a whole bunch of new reasons, it was clear to me that Casey DeSantis wanted to be in the White House, more than her husband, and now a few months later, that dream was slipping away, so she was taking a more active role in shaping her husband’s campaign as if a better media profile would help him. 

All this talk about Ron DeSantis, I said from the beginning, was an unfortunate one. I have had bright thoughts about the future of Ron DeSantis, but I was concerned that he would destroy his brand for politics by running against Trump, the way other Republicans were damaged in 2016. They eventually became supportive of the MAGA agenda, but only as an act of appeasement. They never truly got onto the bandwagon but went into preservation mode to appease Trump rather than working consciously to fulfill the agenda of the American voters who put him in office. And the DeSantis family has been ill-advised to continue to run for the presidency, despite the facts. Ron is only winning over voters in the Republican Party who think that policy is the real issue, the Beltway insiders who like how things are and don’t want it to change. But a vast majority of Republican voters and the recruiting of new voters who are leaving the Democrat Party to vote Republican are voting for their nation’s sovereignty. They see what’s been happening, and Trump and only Trump is their guy. There is nothing that Ron DeSantis brings to the table that President Trump can do better. The best thing for Ron to have done for his political future would have been to support Trump like Kari Lake has. MAGA is the future of the Republican Party, and the sooner people realize that, rather than fighting it, the better off everyone will be. But I’m afraid for Casey’s sake that they exposed themselves too early, and now they will never live down this embarrassment of a campaign. It’s not that they are bad for the role, but that it’s the wrong fight at the wrong time. So many things need to be fixed before we can restore constitutional law to the sovereignty of American life. And talking nice with a media profile that the Beltway likes isn’t going to do it, not for Casey DeSantis or anybody.

The Achilles Heel of The Administrative State: Why to Pick Trump over DeSantis

Political theater aside, there are very declarative reasons to pick President Trump over Ron DeSantis in the upcoming election in 2024. And people are on to it. It’s rooted in the audacious statement by Trump about his former White House Press Secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, when he called her out for not properly representing him on a Fox News segment, declaring her an asset of the globalists. It’s the Achilles Heel of the entire globalist movement and the politics of the Beltway, the thing they don’t want anybody ever to learn because they think we are all too dumb to see it. It’s the concept I talk about in my book, The Gunfighter’s Guide to Business, where the gunslinger walks into a saloon in the pouring rain and drinks with his back to a room full of killers. But nobody makes a move because their first priority is to measure if they can use the stranger to their advantage before any other consideration, and the gunfighter uses that knowledge to destroy them all before they even realize what’s happening. Every great executive understands the concept, which, naturally, Trump does with his experience in private enterprise. People like Kayleigh McEnany, or Ron DeSantis, and the Beltway supporters hope to keep it a secret, but they need people like Trump. Trump doesn’t need them. And that is the true terror that is exploiting globalism all over the world presently. And in order to suppress that reality, if they lose control over election fraud and the media, they will find themselves in a world where they are not in charge, which is becoming glaringly obvious. People have always known these things in the back of their minds, but the promise of the Administrative State, the core of our education system from the beginning, was that communism would enter into the decision-making process, and group consensus would rule the day. Leadership by individuals would be replaced by consensus building. Which, of course, has turned out to be a disaster. And Trump knows it and exploits it to his political advantage.

The Fox News support of Ron DeSantis then becomes much more apparent. As a news organization, they cover the horse race of politics and are not interested in the solutions of political debate. They like the problems of politics and never anticipate that answers will ever come. That is how their business model is, to talk about the game, not the actual results of the game played. Fox News is all about providing color commentary in the days and hours leading up to a game, to use a sports metaphor, but once that game is over, they move on to the next big game, the next horse race. For them, it’s all about revenue generation, just like the Beltway culture is. They want people like Ron DeSantis, who need donors’ money and want to control what kind of color commentary Fox News will be discussing. And for them, it’s all security for their origins for making money because it provides a stable environment politically for their business interests, which have thrived under the illusion that consensus building by the Administrative State would be the method of the future, which they invested in. The big difference between Ron DeSantis is that he’s essentially broke. Without money in his pocket, it’s like going to a gunfight without a gun. He’s young and doesn’t have very much money. He has to make money for many years in his life, so that makes him much easier to control than someone like Trump, who makes it clear that if anybody betrays him, he will drop them like a rock into the ocean and never look back. 

Without Trump’s independent wealth, we would not have questions about the actual validity of the Administrative State and its controllers, the Deep State, which are globalists involved in finance. They built a rigged system, and they have a layer of bureaucracy that protects them from the impact of negative results. And that rigged system would have stayed intact if an independent person like Trump had never made themselves known to politics. Trump cannot be controlled because he is independently wealthy. Ron DeSantis might talk like Trump, but he can never act like Trump.   Someone will always control him because he needs someone to give him money in some way or another. Ron DeSantis could never walk into a room with his back to it and have people not trying to take him out because the rules of consensus building were never going to protect people from each other’s ambitions. But the good executive knows the value of leadership and can afford to alienate those who are ineffective, disloyal, or malicious. They know a million Kayleigh McEnanys are out there, people looking for a chance that only Trump could give them. But there’s only one Trump. And that is the source of the panic that is moving through politics with the new global populism that is reshaping the world currently. The political system was built to put money in the pockets of donors, lawyers, and consultants, with the eventual outcome producing something of a horse race for the media like Fox News to talk about but never to resolve. Because if the problems were resolved, then there would be nothing new to talk about in the media. A solution-based society does not help the social parasites fake that their Administrative State is effective. Only that the goal is to raise money to spend on the horse race, and that is the reality of the Deep State as they have been trying to hide it. 

Ron DeSantis ultimately made the same dumb mistake that most people do these days; they felt they were never going to get anywhere in life unless they sucked up into the Administrative State. Even Kayleigh McEnany fell for the bait. And the reason is that they don’t understand how executive leadership works. They understand the sentiments of the press. They know how to say the right things. But they don’t understand how the right things are determined because they are not independently wealthy and free to live on their own terms. But Trump is, which is why he’s such a terrifying prospect to the efforts of an Administrative State to continue selling themselves as useless solutions to a world that expects results. Nobody in the Beltway of politics or the media that reports on it is worried about Ron DeSantis. Without a Trump to hide behind, he’s all talk and can quickly be controlled by the forces who have always controlled politics. And those protections are built into the rules of polite society, that you don’t call people names, that you put up with deception by not discussing the real problems. But the only solution to the real problems is through directness, and that only comes from the independence of social interactions, where you don’t need others to validate your existence. And Trump doesn’t. People want to be near him because they want something from him. As a top executive, he knows that and can use that leverage in all his relationships, which ultimately is the essence of leadership. Aligning people with self-interest is the actual method of success. Consensus building is meant to hide the lack of results behind making everyone else feel important when they clearly aren’t. And that is ultimately what the entire election of 2024 is all about. Which only President Trump is an option for the future.

It’s All About Anger: The Fed messed up America, and people have a right to feel the way they do

Of course, people have a right to be angry; they have a right to be very angry. As it has turned out, many of the crazy conspiracy theories over the past twenty years have turned out to be true. We have learned through Trump’s presidency because they have come out of their concealment to get rid of him and have abused our laws and political system to such an extent that we know there is a Deep State of global members who function outside of the world’s governments to run a money racket that is very mob like. It’s a criminal enterprise at best and has been working in the background taking advantage of the good nature of people for a long time, and now it’s all exposed. It took layers of peeling back all the trouble to see them, and now that is where the world is, protests in England, Paris, Brazil, Hong Kong, everywhere, people are mad, and populism is gaining steam because the Deep State has been caught doing a lot of bad things. And protecting them has been the Administrative Class, the layers of college-trained managers that have created woke culture performance standards and prevented proper legislation to facilitate a functioning government. If all governments were bad, nothing would work, pushing people to accept poor performance everywhere. It’s not just a problem in the United States; this is a global problem and has at its root cause the open border organizations that have dissipated people all over the globe in an attempt to overthrow national governments and push corporations into accepting extremely liberal approaches to business outlined by the communist aims of Karl Marx. Then at the core of all this trouble has been wealth redistribution, in stealing money from the rich country of America and giving it away to these bandits and thieves, and the mechanism for doing that was the Federal Reserve. The Fed was always something Americans should have been suspicious of, and now the truth of the matter has been revealed. Quantitative easing has destroyed the American economy, and the value that was once there has been feeding the power of the Deep State all along. 

When Trump said during a March 25th rally in Waco, Texas, that the Deep State was going to destroy America, or America was going to destroy the Deep State, he was putting his finger on the larger problem of this particular 2024 election. I’ve been talking about it for a while, but now we know we never had control of our government, not for several decades, and the Federal Reserve has been purposely wrecking the fiscal policy of America and distributing that value like mobsters to hostile global powers. And they have been using our own intelligence agencies to do so. Control the money; you can control most people in the world. That has always been the danger of an idea for the Federal Reserve. Once foreign interests were able to control those independent banks that make up the Fed, it was over for a rational outcome to be considered. I would watch the Federal Reserve meetings at Jackson Hole, Wyoming, every year, and the writing was on the wall. Most of the bank reps were well-intentioned, but it was all over once woke rules were poured into their minds, and group consensus drove their independent logic. This was the topic of a very good book called The Lords of Easy Money that came out a while ago and told this story of the broken Federal Reserve well, in ways that normal people can understand. If you have listened to the crazy liberal lunatic Janet Yellen over the last several weeks, the problem becomes obvious. 

Janet Yellen is the current Secretary of the Treasury for the inserted President Biden. She has served as the Chair of the Federal Reserve, just as Jerome Powell does now. Going back to what many considered the good days, those of Alen Greenspan, politics has been the overriding quality of the Fed Chairs. Even with all the efforts toward big things at the annual Jackson Hole meetings, they are just people easily influenced by global politics. In the case of the American Fed, the mob of the Deep State has most controlled their decision-making process. Greenspan was an Ayn Rand fan of the classic Atlas Shrugged, but he found it challenging to part government and business partnerships that were so embedded in politics, so he essentially started the process of quantitative easing to assist investment and pump up the economy during the Reagan years. That was certainly the problem with Ben Bernanke when he attempted to stop the bleeding of the collapsed housing market in 2008 with a policy of endless quantitative easing and to give that money directly to Wall Street; specifically, Larry Fink of BlackRock, who then applied his membership to the World Economic Forum to buy up the world’s boards of directors with fake government printed money to impose on them social governance, which is how we have ended up with all these woke policies we are seeing today. And the Deep State mob is going all in on the ridiculousness now because they know that people know. Their efforts are no longer shielded by the white wine and cheese Republicans who think the Fed chair people are brilliant economists. The beer-drinking chicken-winged public now wants to know why their dollar has lost much of its value. A beer that used to cost one dollar now costs three, and now they are being told that they’ll have to give up their pickup trucks in place of some fancy golf cart so that some polar bear can sleep on a block of ice somewhere. Who made those decisions for them? Our government, the Fed, and their radical liberal views are the essence of Janet Yellen. Larry Fink, the guy who controls over 10 trillion in asset management with BlackRock, when he would have instead have been a political activist coming out of college? They all got caught thinking people were too stupid to see what they were doing, and now their bad policies have robbed people of their wealth and very lives, and people are pretty well upset about it. 

They were smoking crack to all the political analysts out there who thought that Ron DeSantis would be an offering to MAGA so that the Deep State could continue to rule from the shadows. They obviously do not have a hold on reality. This upcoming election is not about policy, whether or not women have voting rights, or which side in the Civil War politicians took regarding racism. Racism has been a weapon of the Deep State to distract the public from the money they were stealing from America to fund countless wars, destroy borders of nations, and implement a communist philosophy in every corporation that sells stock in a public forum. And the ruse continued until President Trump revealed the depth of the Deep State during his presidency. And since then, in attempting to use every tool of corruption at their disposal to keep him from running again.  Ron DeSantis never had a chance.  The Deep State encouraged him to run so that they could get control of the MAGA movement, thinking that people would be attracted to a Donald Trump-lite offering. But this election is about more than that; it’s about destroying our entire civilization, starting with our monetary policy. And now that we all know what has happened and are discovering more bad stuff day by day, people are getting very angry. And that anger is poised to go out and vote for Donald Trump. And this time, the Deep State won’t be able to hide behind a manufactured virus unleashed on the world to manipulate our elections. Now the wrath of the world is headed for the places where the Deep State hides, such as behind the Fed. And there isn’t anything anybody can do to stop that anger from spewing because the bad guys have been caught.

President Trump for 2024: Ron DeSantis is great, but without Trump, he would be nothing; the bad guys would have destroyed him in 2019

I really want Ron DeSantis, the re-elected and very popular governor of Florida, to retain his brand past 2024. The very dumb Paul Ryan nobody RINO position of challenging President Trump for the 2024 nomination to retake the White House is a loser strategy. After the midterm elections, Ryan immediately made his intentions known about pushing Trump out of the Republican Party with comments about losing the House, the Senate, and the White House after four years of the President’s first term. Well, it was because of Ryan, who was a weak and progressive Speaker of the House, and the sold-out leadership of Mitch McConnell that lost the House and Senate. And it was election fraud that lost the White House, and people like Ryan, his poor advice to Fox News, and other mainstreamers continue to fall short of understanding reality when they speak about politics. The worst thing that could happen to people like Ron DeSantis would be to ruin his brand in a conflict with Trump. Trump is going to run for the White House, he has revenge in mind, and the MAGA Republicans are there to back him up. New Republicans to politics, like Ron DeSantis and the upcoming Kari Lake, are where they are because of Trump. Trump is the kingmaker, unlike Paul Ryan. And there won’t be any 2024 challengers to Trump as the controlled opposition would love to see to take the steam out of the MAGA Republican Party.   The truth is, without Trump and Trump’s work over the last two years, the Republican Party was poised to lose everywhere, and Democrats were set to turn America over to globalism. And people understand that and are loyal to Trump. There is no other replacement candidate for what the future holds because there is unfinished business at the White House and Trump is determined to spend the rest of his life fixing it. 

You don’t see people selling Ron DeSantis t-shirts and hats on the corner of random streets in Kansas, but you do for Trump. Ron DeSantis has undoubtedly been the model every governor should utilize when running a state. He has shown governors everywhere what a great governor can be. And I am sure Ron DeSantis could take those skills into the White House and do just as good of a job. But there is much more to it. DeSantis has been great because Trump has drawn much of the media fire. Without Trump in politics, candidates like Kari Lake would never get off the ground. We have more candidates than ever because Trump in politics draws cover fire. And the Presidency’s branding has new respect worldwide because Trump knows how to play that game. He has spent his life building that reputation, which is what is most valuable as an occupant of the White House. The SWAMP must be drained; without the big Trump train out there to clear the tracks, DeSantis would be destroyed. Without Trump to soak up all the media negativity, DeSantis would not have been so free to run Florida as well as he has. These great new government faces are emerging because Trump has cleared the way for them. The unity of the party with diversity is because of Trump. The support of labor unions is because of Trump. And there just aren’t people in the world who can turn back the clock on globalism with foreign nations and get away with it except a billionaire like Trump, who has his own plane engraved with his name in bold golden letters for all to see and not feel the least bit shy about it. Or the reputation of living in a golden tower in New York City. Trump has been great because he has been divisive, and there were 6 million more voters in this election that were Republican because of Trump. If Trump were just playing golf in Florida, the Republican Party would have been done for after 2020. Nobody is showing up to anything because of Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, or even Ron DeSantis outside of Florida. 

When Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, and Rand Paul ran against Trump in 2016, they never recovered their brand. They will always be good political figures, but to be able to run for President, that brand has to be in a special category, and for them, it was destroyed forever when running against Trump. The same will happen to Mike Pompeo, Nikki Haley, Ron DeSantis, and any other Republican candidate who tries to stick themselves into the 2024 race. And I disagree with many very smart people who think that Trump should wait past November 15th for the announcement for President. The answer as to why there were 6 million more Republican voters in this last election of 2022 but not huge waves of pickups in the House and Senate and various governor races is because of election fraud. There are not enough Democrats out there to compete with that, and they still have so many tight races in Arizona, Nevada, and Colorado. Because of the strength of the Trump ticket, Republicans are more competitive against this rigged opposition than they ever have been. And if anybody followed the bad advice of the sell-out to Atlas Shrugged, that is, Paul Ryan, then they would find themselves on the losing end of politics in general.  Republicans picked up the House away from Nancy Pelosi. They are competing for control of the Senate, especially with a chance at a runoff in Georgia. If they can stop the cheat there, which Mike Lindell captured in real-time, Herschel Walker can easily beat the communist Warnock. The evidence is quite clear on what happened in Georgia and other places. These voting machines are a real problem, and Democrats can’t win if they don’t cheat. That is obvious in the ground numbers. Playing the Paul Ryan game is how Republicans lose. To fix the problem, you have to understand the problem, and the problem is Democrats cheat at many levels in all elections. That is why Republicans lost the House, the Senate, and the White House in 2020. Because Paul Ryan and other RINOs were playing the part of controlled opposition, not a party that actually wanted to win. 

People understand that there is no Republican Party without Trump. There is no way to beat the forces of a global nature that are determined to destroy the sovereignty of the United States. People of color would not be joining the Republican Party without Trump. Because of Trump, women are joining the Republican Party and gaining many powerful seats in government, from school boards to congressional positions. Immigrants turn to Trump as their best option, not the Democrat Party. And significant political figures are doing well in the wake Trump leaves behind. Because of Trump, DeSantis is better and allowed to be all he can be. Without Trump and his “bigness,” the media would have crushed DeSantis by 2019. He would not be able to do all the bold things he has done in Florida to show the world how good government can work if Trump didn’t soak up all the political attention along the way. The key to Republican victories and success is to have Trump take down the opposition and create a politically safe space that otherwise would not exist. The greatest threat to our modern political order is globalist Democrats, who have gained the ability over time to cheat in elections to gain power for the Desecrators of Davos. And until people like Paul Ryan admit or accept that, instead of helping those negative forces, Republicans will always struggle. Without Trump, they will lose. But with him, many more will win when the odds are always stacked against them. And with Trump, all three federal government houses and many states will be Republican. And only because of him and nobody else.

DeSantis Standing up To Disney: Government as the good guy in an evil world

Maybe the most valuable thing that will come out of this post-Trump period and now the debacles of the Biden administration is putting to rest many speculations that have existed since the beginning of time, is what does good governance look like and why is bad government the perpetuation of all that is evil in the world? Because of the Trump administration, we had several examples of great government. We saw firsthand what bad government was in contrast to the aftermath of Joe Biden and the reaction the bad guys out there in the world had to the prospect of good government. I have spent much of my adult life looking and fighting for the prospect of good government like a good sheriff wants to bring justice to the town they live in, only to find it ripe with criminal elements profiting off misfortune and chaos. When Trump was elected, he accelerated the plans of a vast criminal underclass that had been eroding our country for many years. But finally, with a new sheriff in town, we could take theory and put it to practice. The result was what good government should look like, protecting individual rights and the safe foundation for a prosperous country. One of the creations of this new kind of good government with a new sheriff in town kind of mindset was Ron DeSantis, who has redefined what a good governor of a state looks like. He’s certainly his own man, aside from President Trump. Still, Trump brought executive-level leadership into vogue in politics. Desantis from Florida was the first to fully utilize those gifts in a way that has now shown a light for all the future to see, which of course, led to a clash with the Disney Company that has turned out to be like the Shootout at the OK Corral with legendary figures like Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday. But this shootout wasn’t with guns; it was over finance, and the massive impact that money management firms have over modern corporations, and the way the bad guys have now tried to attack America through woke policies and desecrating social impacts meant to take down what used to be one of America’s top family-friendly companies, the entertainment company that Walt and Roy Disney built to remind America what America was always meant to be.

The “Don’t Say Gay Bill” is the kind of legislation that a good government should propose in any healthy society to protect families in their development. Nobody in their right mind believes that it is a good idea for children to be exposed to sexual elements in their early years, from kindergarten to the third grade. No child should be thinking about sex in those years; there are millions of other concerns. They shouldn’t have so many enemies to legislation intended to protect kids from discussions that are already on the wrong side of history. But what was shocking was just how committed Disney as a company showed itself to these kinds of social desecrations. When we think of Disney, we think of Main Street USA, which is the way Walt Disney intended it. The kind of America where you could buy fancy chocolates in Victorian-style buildings with white picket fences and the glory of private property ownership looming over everything. But over time, we have seen the Disney company, and lots of other big corporations for that matter, descend into extreme left-leaning politics intent to undo everything that America stands for.

To some extent, we put up with it. Getting what was good out of Disney while holding our nose at what we saw was becoming bad. But quite shockingly, which is part of the woke culture of most corporations these days that left-leaning activist money managers control, like BlackRock and State Street, the control of money through publicly traded companies have become the weapon of choice to attack America and the lives Walt Disney meant to preserve, undoing them from within with radical boards of directors and executives that nobody would have considered hiring a few decades ago. Now they were radical political extremists who were running everything, and their social intention was to introduce gay sex and perverse sexual lifestyles to children as early as possible, with only one purpose in mind, the destruction of their minds for a social cause that is as anti-American as one could possibly conceive.

The balancing act in good government, as opposed to bad government, creates conditions where businesses and the lives they feed can thrive. But when they are working against those individual lives, to step in and provide protection. It’s like the difference between a Wild West town overrun by cattle rustlers and scandalous gamblers, prostitutes, and killers until a good sheriff comes to town to clean it up. Of course, the bad guys won’t be happy with the effort, and they will fight back for their own preservation. But in America, the classic gunfighter who comes to town with only a gun and the law at their back often did such a thing which allowed the town to survive and give the people living within it a chance at a happy and productive life. That concept carried America into being the world’s top economy. And it is that which the bad guys in the world want to undo, desperately. They have infected the Disney Company through the many investment firms of BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street and imposed on them ESG scores which have removed the traditionalists loyal to the Walt Disney vision and replaced them with what I call the purple-haired people eaters, the Desecrators of Davos types who want global communism and a one-world order starting with the icons of American industry. They don’t care if Disney is destroyed in the process; they just want to see the sheriff run out of town so they can have an easy time at crime and malice. Good government, in this case, stays in town and enforces the law on the bad guys, and that is precisely what Ron DeSantis had done in Florida by threatening to remove the special privileges that Disney had enjoyed there and fighting back when the economic powerhouse showed its intentions to attack the “Don’t Say Gay Bill” after the legislature supported it as represented by the people of the state.

The plan all along by these liberal attackers was to embed themselves into our corporations and force us to accept their ways of desecration to get some little memory of what they once meant to us. The desecrators want to destroy the idea of all American life and the families of its creation. Under those conditions, we need government to preserve the constitutional intentions of life in America from the influences that invade our country in ideas and trojan horse style influence. The surprise that the woke political left has now had is Ron DeSantis standing up to Disney instead of doing what most all other governors would do, which would be to cave to one of the biggest economic influences in American life. Most governors would be eating out of the hand of Disney. Instead, DeSantis is doing what all good executives would do, and that’s always keeping in mind the big picture and the constitution for which he serves. And in so doing, it has brought to Florida something far more valuable than Disney as a tourist resort. He has confronted the bad guys in the street and brought them down for all to see, and people are standing behind DeSantis, not Disney. And this clear message is being noticed by the attack vectors of the Desecrators of Davos, who did not think such a thing would happen, and it has them in a bit of a panic.   The government was being a good referee, which should have always been its function, not an active player on the field tipping the scales toward the corrupt influence who wanted to win the game without playing by the rules. I’ve seen this process developing for a long time, but now it is in practice, and it’s not President Trump who is doing it. Instead, it’s the next generation of a new kind of politician. And it is one of the best examples of good government that we have seen in America to date.

Companies Aligned with China are Failing: It’s not a good idea to bet against America

There has been panic which I’ve explained before to those concerned about the amount of power corporations have.  The worry is that corporations will force us to accept vaccine passports to move around the country, that they’ll push us out of amusement parks if we don’t get woke policies, and that they’ll regulate our lives by generally denying us fun and happiness.  It is essentially the Chinese model that we are seeing play out in the opening days of the Biden administration. Companies like Disney and Coka Cola, who have global aims, have placed their bets that the way to those international markets is through the communism of China.  That is essentially the bet of the NBA, an organization made up of socialist players to go global China style.  So, they are ignoring American markets treating us like garbage because they are going for what they think is a bigger prize in the world of tomorrow under a one-world government ran by the United Nations and influenced by communism. That’s how we arrived here, but I have explained it a different way, and my bets are placed opposite of the international trend.  Those who are betting against America are going to pay for it in a big way. 

Now I love traditional Disney.  I think Walt Disney is one of the great entrepreneurs of our American history.  I have no problem sharing Disney with the rest of the world.  If Disney is broadcasting American values, it’s a great thing.  Disney the Man.  Not Disney, the corporation that woke leftists and Democrat presidential hopefuls now run.  I would offer that these new leaders of corporate Disney, Coke, and the NBA—among others—don’t know what they are doing and have over-leveraged their influence over the American population.  For instance, Disney thinks people are so hungry for their Disney+ service, their amusement parks, and their many restaurants and hotels that they will put up with crazy, radical communist policies in trade for fun.  I would offer that people reject those services in favor of freedom and that market pressures will shift away from those corporations to other options.  Such as Facebook and Twitter assumed that they would have control over the flow of information, but instead, options are erupting everywhere.  The Facebook model is now dying as we speak as well as Twitter.  Their influence is waning due to their activism against President Trump and his 70 million voters.  Disney is suffering the same fate; they are losing billions of dollars in their commitment to wokeness, and I don’t ever see them recovering.  Their decision to leverage their entertainment assets against American traditions is costing them as they speak, and the brand damage is incalculable. 

I have wanted to return to Disney World for a vacation, so I occasionally watch video vlogs of people who cover the parks in Orlando, and what they are reporting is embarrassing compared to my experiences in the past.  Disney World as a vacation spot has been one of the best locations on earth for entertainment.  Not only do they have a collection of the best rides that are anywhere, but they have great employees who carry the company message of happiness and enthusiasm for life.  But this move by the company to go full woke, to empower all the radical leftwing causes, the Black Lives Matters types, the gun grabbers, the rainbow gays on Disney characters, the transgender policies have ruined that positive employee interaction.  I didn’t help to shut down for Covid and never fully restaffing.  With the theme parks at a much-reduced capacity, waiting times excessively high only to be greeted with more and more Covid restrictions, the brand of Disney has been whittled away during the election year of 2020, and their gamble will not be paying off.  You can see it most in the many specialty shops that are closed and appear to be gone forever, the little chocolate shops and souvenir spots that are seldom ever open anymore because of the declined attendance.

This past week, Ron DeSantis in Florida removed all emergency Covid restrictions, so Disney cannot blame the government for its temperature-taking and mask mandates.  That is a liberal policy from the management of Disney as a company that wants to see central government restriction to get the payoff of a culture shift from America to China, where they placed all their bets.  And those bets are now in the multibillion dollars.  That is why they are trying not to show panic, but they look to have lost their pre-2019 market share forever.  The evidence was in the fan reaction to the Gina Carano firing from the Star Wars Mandalorian series because she came out on Twitter as a conservative.  The way that Disney fired her showed they have no idea what is driving market forces these days, and when Star Wars fans rebelled by canceling their Disney+ memberships, the company had to attempt to fix it by hiring her back, or at least to let the fans know they were thinking about it.  With Florida now without Covid restrictions, yet Disney insisting on keeping them going costing themselves even more billions by the month, there are many more Gina Carano-like concessions they will have to make in the future to attempt to regain market share.  That might help.  I might revisit the parks, but I’m not going to spend a lot of money there to see a bunch of closed restaurants, lines that are socially distanced, and having to wear a stupid mask in the hot Florida sun over a communist attempt at insurgency by the management of the Disney Company. 

That has been my message from the beginning of this woke attempt by companies to steer us into political directions.  Money rules, and they can’t cheat that vote.  People ultimately have the power over their corporations, and the best way to make them honest again is by hitting them in the pocketbook. Don’t buy their crap and watch how fast they give up their communist dreams.  They should have never listened to the China playbook.  The market share was never going to come from the East, and stealing it from America was never going to work.  It might have looked good on paper to people too stupid to ask the obvious questions.  But now, the dollars and cents are telling the story quite well.  It’s not just Disney either.  They make an excellent example because their brand is so well known and significant.  Watching them fall the way they have provides a glimpse into smaller corporations that are just as bad off but not obvious to the public.  The NBA gained popularity because of Larry Bird and the great competition with Michael Jorden.  People will be turned off by athletes taking up communist causes.  The corporations themselves do not set public policy; they are created to fulfill a public need.  And so long as they do that, they will make money.  When they think they can steer that policy, they will fail every single time.  The NBA has seriously damaged their brand, likely forever also.  It took a long time to build and only a few years to destroy.  Good luck in China, where they don’t have the money to support those types of endeavors, and they never will.  So, fret not; you have a lot more control over this wokeness than you think.  It’s already coming apart, so let it fall apart.  There are plenty of other things in life to do.  We don’t need companies that aren’t pro-American.
