He didn't merely become our President. He became our father, our grandfather, our model of patriotism. When Donald Trump first announced his candidacy, we felt curiosity which soon turned to admiration, then love. As my husband says, "Reagan was liked, but Trump is loved."
Looking back on the past six years since President Trump burst into our lives first as a candidate, then as President and now as our President-in-Exile, he's taught us so much about how to be a patriot, how to handle liars and adversity and how to do it all with grace, strength and humor.
Even as we celebrate President Trump's 75th birthday, let's thank him not only for his service to our beloved Country but for modeling so many invaluable lessons in Living and in Patriotism.

A Will of Iron
What gave President Trump so much power, especially internationally? Had he been granted more power that our previous weak Presidents? Of course not.
But he had two big things going for him: 1) The Wholehearted Consent of the Governed and 2) A Will of Iron.
Back in March, I wrote, "Without any drama or histrionics, when President Trump said βyes'...yes, it was. And when he said βno'...that was it. It ain't happening. China knew that. Iran knew that. North Korea knew that and they respected it. One man with a Will of Iron changed the world."
The Bible says, "But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay." (Matt 5:37)
President Trump exemplifies that verse. He taught the Patriot community the awesome power they too possess if only they exercise their Will of Iron.

Liars Gonna Lie
Perhaps there's been a public figure more lied about than President Trump...but they don't spring readily to mind. For the recently red-pilled, we've learned to our disgust the Mainstream Media doesn't merely slant and twist stories, but now they just make crap up out of thin air.
It hurts to be lied about. But it hurts even worse when you're lied about after carefully explaining the truth to someone who nods, confirms they understand...and then goes off and writes horrible lies about you anyways.
President Trump is remarkable for the grace with which he calls out the liars without letting them bog him down. And, to my everlasting awe, he does it without losing his temper.

Never Lose Your Temper
I once had an Amish woman turn to me and say, "Getting angry is a sin."
After a moment's thought, I responded, "Anger isn't a sin. Look at Jesus with the money changers." She said nothing in response but contradicting her incorrect theology was the death knell of our friendship.
Anger is a secondary emotion. Most often, it's an expression of valid pain, of logical hurt. In other cases, justifiable anger that should be expressed to the perpetrator is turned inwards and becomes depression.
But anger itself is our friend. It tells us when we've been wronged. Anger is not a sin but expressing it unfairly, abusively, violently or medicating it may be sinful.
After warning us what a hothead Trump was and how dangerous it was to have his finger on the nuclear button, it turns out he's the most even tempered man I've ever observed.
He's authoritative. He defends himself. He demands and commands respect but in the midst of unbelievable abuse, lies, slander and defamation, we have never seen President Trump lose his temper.
Not once!
By being unable to move him to emotion, the Lying Media lost and President Trump retained power through his serenity.
I only wish I were half as calm as President Trump.

Be A Good Example, Set Firm Boundaries, Trust Your "Kids"
As much as our hearts broke to see President Trump leave the White House, retrospect has shown he made the right decision. Staying would've been disastrous both for the nation and for President Trump's political future. (https://www.lenorathompsonwriter.com/beyondnarcissism/what-if-trump-had-remained-in-the-white-house)
His exit was analogous to a parent who does their level best to raise a good child, trusts their parenting skills, trusts their child and releases their child to try their wings and soar.
That's exactly what President Trump did. When President and Mrs. Trump left the White House on January 20th, they handed We the People the mantle and responsibility to protect America from the NWO and Biden Regime.
We wanted The Plan to be shock-and-awe.
What we got was Papa Trump stepping back, setting a boundary and basically saying, "I showed you how to do it, Kids. Now it's up to you."
That was basically The Plan and danged if We the People didn't step right up to the plate! He showed us the Power of a Will of Iron and how We the People could stand up to the New World Order through the courts, through forensic audits, through patriotic legislators, through purging RINOs and saying a firm "Hells no!" to Biden/Harris on social media.
Papa Trump "raised" us right. He showed us how to be an American in the spirit of the Founding Fathers. But he had the wisdom to do what so many parents fail to do. He trusted that he "raised us right." He set a boundary on himself, stepped back and went golfing. (Actually, he's working like heck behind the scenes.)
I'll be damned if his gamble didn't pay off. We the People stepped up when he stepped back. We are curing our nation. And God will heal this land.

Happy Birthday, President Trump. Come Back Soon!
Dear President Trump: Happy, Happy 75th Birthday! We the People hope you enjoy a wonderful birthday with Melania and your entire family.
Thank you for answering the call when America's "need was dire." You changed America and changed our lives. You red-pilled millions worldwide. You showed us that America can be saved and how to do it. After we'd been disheartened by so many RINOs for so many decades, you called them out and started the house cleaning. Thank you!
If I wrote a book, it would be inadequate to express the deep admiration, gratitude and love of the American people for you and your noble family.
So hurry back to the White House where you belong. When you return and raise your hand and take that beautiful Oath of Office once again, you will hear the roar of joy from sea to shining sea.
So, dear Papa Trump, happy, happy birthday and many, many more.
Always remember: You are loved, dear President-in-Exile, more than you can comprehend.
God bless and keep you always.
Love, The American People
P.S. You have our consent to govern!
Thanks for the heads-up on President Trump’s birthday!
Damn. Wish I could give him an American presidency this year.
Happy Birthday, Mr. Trump. You are greatly missed, but you will find a way back in the fighting ring when the time is right.
Wow. Thank you. Thank you.
I was a fool for not recognizing some of these traits before.
And may you have a marvelous birthday worthy of yourself, President Trump!
Thank you to Trump, and thank you, Ms. Thompson.
STILL the President.
God Bless you President Trump!
Thank you for everything you did for our nation!
We The People love you!
Have a wonderful birthday!

(P.S. Someone made a meme of various clips of President Trump, while Rudyard Kipling's poem "If" is being read. It is well done, and very moving to watch.)
Happy Birthday President Trump on this Flag Day too. πΊπΈ A very fitting combination.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRESIDENT TRUMP !!!
Happy Birthday,...Mr. President...Happy birthday...to you. /s
Happy birthday Trump!
Happy Birthday President Trump!
Trump 2024/2028
Happy Birthday π Mr. President! God bless you and yours!
I am always thankful to see these mentions of PDJT’s birthday... reminds me that America can do things right on occasion (and that I need to call my sister since she shares his birthday).
Birthday BTTT!
As a lawyer, I just want to indicate that an "American presidency" is exactly what it suggests, and not something that Mrs. Trump would give him.
Happy Birthday!
“So hurry back to the White House where you belong. When you return and raise your hand and take that beautiful Oath of Office once again, you will hear the roar of joy from sea to shining sea.”
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We owe you, greatly.
Hear, hear!
Well done. I do hope he replies to you.
