Where is President Trump and why has he been so silent?

Posted on 01/18/2021 6:32:20 PM PST by SamAdams76

I would like to address the elephant in the room.

Other than a brief appearance at the Wall in Texas last week, in which President Trump delivered a cursory speech, he has been virtually absent from the public scene.

It was almost two weeks ago that a fiery and defiant Trump gave a speech at the White House Ellipse (that I was there to see) in which he stated unequivocally that he won the Nov 3 election and was never giving up or conceding. He then ended the speech with a long list of examples of blatant election fraud in the contested states that rightfully should have gone to him.

Trump then told us to march to the Capitol (peacefully) and to let our voices be heard. You know the rest of the story.

Since then, we have heard practically nothing from President Trump. Yes, there were a couple of videos he put out condemning the violence at the Capitol (that he had to know was instigated by bad actors of the Left and not by his own supporters) and the one appearance at the Wall in Texas.

Since then, absolutely nothing from Trump. I know he has been cut off from Twitter, but come on, he still has the ability to reach the people in minutes as anything he posts on any social media platform (or posted through a surrogate) will instantly be propagated to tens of millions of people.

Tomorrow will be the last full day of President Trump's first term. By noon of the next day, the usurper Joe Biden, who had this election blatantly stolen for him, will be sworn in.

Is this the way Trump's first term will end? With a whimper? Will he board Marine One early Wednesday morning and head to Mar-A-Lago with nary a word to the American people?

I, for one, cannot believe that this is the way it will end. Surely we will hear from our President within the next 36 hours. I'm counting on it.

Things are apparently no longer in Trump’s hands :)

Q totally did not help anything. Made us look like nutjobs.

Q made Q followers look like nutjobs.

Most of us were on to Q from day one.

Q was just a hammer for the mass media to use to hit us on the head and claim we are stupid Neanderthals.

What is there left to say? In his term, he has revealed that Congress is a hopelessly corrupt institution; that the executive branch is not accountable to the Chief Executive; that the Democovid party is a tool for Chinese hegemony;and the Republican party is partially under the control of the Democovids and the rest inept and still laboring under the delusion that we have a functional electoral system. It cannot have been easy to confront a mountain of rubbish with what amounts to a kid’s beach shovel with packs of howling jackals circling and attacking near constantly. If he chooses to turn and walk away, I wouldn’t blame him.

The Democrats do over-play their hand and they do because they know they will never be held accountable.

Did the Bolsheviks overplay their hand when they executed the Russian Royal Family?

He’s wherever they think he’s safe and that is number 1 not disclosed. He is quiet because he is not any longer campaigning.

Twitter kicked home out or was it the other way around?

Patience will be easy given we only have 36 hours to wait.

I'm a huge supporter of Trump by the way and I travelled to DC earlier this month at his request. I'm just concerned that he has been so silent lately. Check out my tagline.

Even Beria got his due—just took a little time.

It takes time for reality to set in for some and
others just can’t accept it. But life goes on.

My sentiments as well. Pres Trump does not whimper and the word does not belong anywhere near his name. Whatever he is now doing is his business and he will speak publicly when he damn well pleases. And, as you say, he is BUSY.

90% chance that before 2021 closes out, United States will be in obvious civil war. I say this because I am working hard to be wrong. pic.twitter.com/ZoI0rwkkHr— Michael Yon (@Michael_Yon) January 18, 2021

He’s busy printing 300 million filled-in ballots for the 2024 election, and gathering blackmail info on every judge in the system.

He’ll steal that election fair and square,in such a manner that everyone will want election fraud reform.

I don’t fault President Trump at all for being silent. Heck, if I were him, I would probably tell the whole country to, well, I don’t want to get banned but.....
He owes us nothing. Not a thing. He gave it his all. He fought for the US like no one else has. In return he and his family were attacked, impeached, shat upon and reviled.
He had nothing to gain and so much to lose and did it anyway.
President Trump loves this country. We owe him a debt we can never repay.

I’m guessing that Trump is pulling his punches and laying low with an eye toward the midterms and running again in 2024. I think that is a mistake but it’s his choice. There is no way my family votes GOP in 2022 regardless of what President Trump says/does.

Don’t sweat it. He’ll be back.

It’s reasonable and appropriate that he lets Biden have his day. Not because Biden deserves it, but even his most ardent supporters in the media would criticize him. Plus, he lost his primary means of communication since all the social networks have booted him.

Give him a chance to regroup and catch his breath.

He’ll be back. And, it won’t be long.
