The man has more courage in his baby finger than I have in my whole body.
Greatest President since George Washington, and every bit as important. Washington was fighting foreign enemies, Trump is fighting domestic enemies.

President Trump said Wednesday he would have had a “very nasty life” if he lost the presidential election, a surprisingly public acknowledgment that his legal challenges could have consumed his life and brought jail time.
“If I lost, it would have been very bad,” Mr. Trump said at an investment summit in Miami Beach. “It was dangerous, actually very dangerous.”
When Mr. Trump won in November, the Justice Department abandoned the two federal cases against him, and a judge in Manhattan issued an unconditional discharge in his hush money case.
Mr. Trump gave voice to something that his advisers had long said he had in the back of his mind as he campaigned. But he did not publicly acknowledge throughout 2024 that he was campaigning for his freedom as much as for the White House itself.
The president made the comments in response to a question about how he would spend a year if granted a sabbatical. Mr. Trump did not directly answer the question, saying he was honored to be president. But he said it took “a certain amount of courage” to run again because of the personal risks.
Mr. Trump also said he disagreed with historians’ assessment that Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln, who was assassinated, were the two most mistreated presidents.
“Nobody was treated like me,” he said. “Nobody, and I will tell you, you learn a lot about yourself, but there’s nothing I’d rather do.”
During the presidential campaign, Mr. Trump faced dozens of criminal charges across four different cases. Jack Smith, who served as a special counsel, charged him in two different cases, one related to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol and another related to his handling of classified government documents after he left the White House in 2021. The documents...

WINNING!!!!!! It meant everything to HIM and the country.
VSGDJT is NOT wrong.
The NYTs thinks this diminishes President Trump.
It reinforces how bad the lawfare was.
In the wake of the election, I said pretty much the same thing to my dejected liberal acquaintances, i.e., “Blame yourselves. You people forced him into winning: either recapture the presidency or go to prison. That’s it. Pick one.” Don’t underestimate *anyone* whose back is against the wall like that. It’s like, “Would you swim across New York City’s East River? No? What it’s a choice between that or prison? Then it’s like, ‘Where’s my swim suit?’”
VSGDJT?
Is that anything like GEOTUS?
I believe the ‘journalists’ are intentionally distorting or fabricating what Trump likely meant.
I think Trump was talking about what would be the fall of America, the arrival of China’s ‘handlers’ at the Capitol, and the way China treats those whom it considers enemies. His grandchildren, his children, and he all could have felt the wrath of our enemies. In China, they are comfortable practicing live organ harvesting without benefit of anesthesia. They would want to make a show of Trump to try to tear down his legacy. He had to win to keep us out of our slide into fascism. The next plandemic was on the horizon, NATO was begging America to put boots on the ground in Ukraine. ‘Dark Brandon’ was just a tease - the whole beast was out there.
Ok, I give up. What does the VSG mean?
Very Special Genius.
It was a meme a while back....
“Trump Says He Would Have Had a ‘Very Nasty Life’ if He’d Lost the Election”
As would we all.
The slobs in the far left “media” are thinking that if they continue lying they still may be able to get Kamawala Harris elected. All they have to do is get those loonie RAT vote counters back to work counting again. Those nuts on the left are gone.
No wonder he’s not afraid of being assassinated. He may feel like it’s not the worst thing that could happen to him.
I had that picture made into a 18”x24” sign and has been mounted to the front brick of my house since 19 July.
“As would we all.”
INDEED.
We got a four year reprieve.
We all need to fight on.
They would have had a couple of people perjure themselves in a DC court.
Washington was fighting his own government that was oppressing the Americans. Trump is doing the same thing.
Washington, while fighting the indians in the Indian/British war was shot at many times and missed. As well as during the Revolutionary War.
“They would have had a couple of people perjure themselves in a DC court.”
Or just shot him. Still might happen during or after his term is up.
This exactly.
This fight for our liberty from goobermint bureaucracy is just beginning, and Trump can’t do it all.
I want the blocks put to these sadistic bullies.
