This is President Trump's "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself" moment. (vanity)

This is the moment the Left receives the fatal blow. This is the moment the hero turns around, looks straight into the camera and declares “Fear has no place in our lives. We fight for what we believe in. We never give up. We face our enemy, we analyze, we prepare, and we take the might of the 350 million individuals that make up this country and we win.”

While the left is updating the President’s obituary, the NY Post published theirs:

"If the president bounces back onto the campaign trail, he will be an invincible hero, who not only survived every dirty trick the Democrats threw at him, but the Chinese virus as well. He will show America we no longer have to be afraid."

President Trump is doing just that. And it’s working. The outpouring of love – real honest to God love – for the President – has set so many of us free. We are grateful to our Warrior President for stepping in for us and taking on a minority of stakeholders who have everything to lose if we get to live the American Dream. It’s quite simple – we want to make the decisions that will lead to our success or failure, we want to make the decisions if we get up off the matt and continue fighting or not, we want to worship God openly and freely, we want to protect our families from intruders, we want to live our lives without interference. We think for ourselves and reject those who are failing miserably at trying to tell us what to think. They respond to our “insolence” by insulting our intelligence and agency.

From every corner of this country people are getting into the ring – you had our back President Trump they say – now we have yours. We have watched and supported you – many of us were afraid to take our fight public – the hidden Trump supporters, afraid that our cars and homes would be vandalized, unwilling to go into the public square and take on those who were calling us Racists, Xenophobic and every other …ist or …bic in the book. Our feelings are no longer hurt when a so-called good friend or relative calls us a racist – no longer hurt that they could think that of us – how could they think that – label us – we no longer care.

The left lost and does not yet understand. They succeeded in pushing many of us out of the public square. They argued that we are irredeemable – another word for soulless – they call us racists, white supremacists, they tell us that Martin Luther King Jr.’s “… judge us by the content of our character” was a lapse of judgement on his part and we were not the intended audience. They succeeded at shaming us – in true disputation style - they put us on trial – the defense goes first – the accused second. They demand that we defend ourselves without informing us of the charges – they then fashion the charges from thin air and misconstrue statements made to find us guilty of being irredeemable, of having no soul. We were caught in a web of lies and we were caught in a cycle of having to justify our actions. Many of us decided to stop engaging. We left the public square – it was not worth it. It was asymmetric warfare, and they control the public square.

This past Friday morning the unexpected happened. President Trump came down with Covid19. It is a JFK, 9/11 moment – we will all remember what we were doing when we heard the news. For many it was the first time we entertained the idea that President Trump is vincible – we could lose him. We could lose the guy who spends every waking hour fighting for us – fighting for our hopes and dreams – fighting for our right to pursue the American Dream – fighting for us to take our own risks and live with the consequences. And many more of us realized we really love this guy, like a family member, we really love him. And even many more of us realized that he has been pulling our weight. And even more realized it was time for us to get off our duffs and get out there back into the public square and pull our own weight and have his back. Not because we owe him in the sense of an obligation – no because we love him, and we know he loves us.

There is nothing that scares an ideologue more than when the wicked web they wove dissolves. When people stop justifying themselves and start acting out of love and certainty. It’s over.

Trump is coming out of this as the warrior he is, a little softer, a little more relatable, even a little humbler and yes, much much stronger than he even was before. He gets it .

We have nothing to fear. The outpouring of love and cascade of prayers going up to God asking for his speedy recovery is not only an expression of love for him – but a return to decency – a return to speaking one’s mind from the heart – a return to looking people squarely in the eye and saying this is how I see things – attack my character if you must – but I ain’t going nowhere, I ain’t backing down and I ain’t accepting anything other than civil discourse.

America found its heart – it’s strong and unerring – and it is what is going to unite us all.

President Trump is returning to the ring to fight for us, to fight for our country but this time we are all in there with him – we all have his back as he has always had ours.

I have great respect for President Trump, and don’t denigrate anything about his efforts.

I simply quote Adam Smith’s comment the everyone has a desire to lead. Not all of us actually deliver on that desire, as POTUS Trump has.

Absolutely!

If you don’t mind could you make the following correction before you post it - I hit post too quickly

Rather than

they put us on trial – the defense goes first – the accused second.

Please replace with

they put us on trial - the accused goes first - the prosecutor second.

Thanks!!
