What Trump’s ‘Retribution’ Really Means
American Thinker ^ | 13 Feb, 2024 | Matt Kane

Posted on 02/13/2024 4:35:38 AM PST by MtnClimber

Many have discussed a second Trump presidency revolving around “retribution.” Trump’s Republican primary opponents have claimed that Trump, if re-elected, would be consumed with “personal grievances” at the expense of “real issues.” Across the aisle, leftists have attempted to program the masses into believing that any form of “retribution” — more on what they mean by that later — would render President Trump a dictator. However, both narratives contain easily exposed flaws.

The media have been champing at the bit to twist Trump’s words to advance their dictator narrative. In response, Trump has given smart political answers in saying winning the election, as well as success, will be his retribution. There is no doubting that winning and undoing detrimental Biden policies, similar to how he succeeded the Obama administration, would be one form of retribution. However, no amount of politically nuanced attacks by his “fellow” Republicans, or mainstream leftist gaslighting, can alter reality. Attacks on Trump are real issues that need to be addressed.

Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley were predictably the loudest Republican voices echoing the “real issues” talking point. DeSantis has said Trump becoming the nominee would make the election “about legal issues, criminal trials, and January 6,” suggesting that those issues, as well as people who have been wrongly harmed as collateral damage for aligning with Trump — such as January 6 prisoners who continue to rot in prison, or Douglass Mackey, who was sentenced to seven months in prison after the newly inaugurated illegitimate Biden regime raided his home for a meme he had posted five years prior — will never receive the justice they deserve.

As for Haley, after continuing to be soundly defeated in every primary election, including in Nevada, where she came in a distant second to “None of These Candidates,” ...

I wish Trump would spend a great deal of time and effort getting retribution for the citizens of this country against the communists in congress and the federal agencies. Let the citizens give the thumbs up or thumbs down for our “civil servants”.

Those “personal grievances” just happen to involve deadly serious national security issues. I, for one, hope there will be an avalanche of retribution. In saner times, it would be called holding people accountable for crimes and treason.

It’s not retribution, it’s balance the budget, close the borders, export all those illegals. That’s week number one! Those Feds failing to follow orders, well that’s week number two, which is thanks for exposing yourself, “you’re fired”. Week three, thanks for defending those who failed to do their job on week one, thanks for exposing yourself, “you’re fired”. Week four regroup, rest because week five is Trump’s Lawfare! We all know the libs will have no complaints about Lawfare since it has become their favorite weapon against Trump! See Libs, everything you did to Trump which you felt was justified and necessary is now turned on you, your associates, your supporters, your lawyers, your judges. Buckle up Libs, it’s going to be a long, long four years!

So evil is done under the Biden regime and when Justice comes calling for the guilty parties it now re-defined as “retribution”.

We really are living in a completely screwed up world.

Or a national lottery to be on the firing squads he’s going to need. Oh, I’d apply for that, I would.

Remember the Dems and their Paul Ryan caricature throwing Granny and her wheelchair off a cliff ad? That's what the GOP (if they cared at all) need to do to Biden and the Dems.

The gloves need to come off. Heaven knows, the Dems will do it!

As always, the Democrats always accuse the other side of what they are actually doing themeslves.

Retribution? The current administration has been nothing but retribution since they cheated their way into power in 2020. Whether it is locking citizens up simply for protesting, bringing up a former president on false charges and trying to bankrupt him, and reversing all his sensible policies for no reason other than spite, it has been nothing but retribution since this puppet Biden was installed.

If Trump accomplishes nothing more than revenge on his enemies, I’m fine with that. The purges of the DOJ, DOD, and CIA mush be complete.

In a second Trump administration, I expect nothing less than the execution of at least 10,000 Deep State Globohomo’s in year one.

Lizard Cheney and Kinzinger are on the list, so is the filthy propagandist Banjo Boy and his adulterous wife, nearly EVERYONE at MSDNC, CNN and the FBI and CIA. Every member of HAMAS will be taken out.

I want the executions televised, so it can be recorded and played in slow motion, over and over again. /spit

Trump would be too busy fixing the mess that dim-0s have made but, he could put people on the job of getting evidence to put them lying sonsofbitches in jail, and I hope he does!
