Special K. You are not a troll because Bagster says so. You are a troll because you are a troll.
But also make no mistake....

The purpose of this article is not to mock, ridicule, or insult. Nor am I here to gloat or say, “I told you so.” Instead, I want to make a simple, two-fold appeal: First, can we be realistic and recognize that Trump will not be restored to the White House by some kind of military act or miraculous event (other than simply running again in 2024)? Second, can we be mature enough to acknowledge our errors, learn from our mistakes, and move on? In short, can we make this a teachable moment?
When I announced on the radio on January 6th that Trump would not be returning to the White House (meaning, without being reelected in the future), the response from many was outrage. I was a traitor. I had given up the cause. I was like one of the ten Israelite spies who brought back an evil report (in contrast with Joshua and Caleb, who believed in God's report). I was a Never Trumper. I was bought out by the Deep State. I was a Communist infiltrator.
You get the drift.
The truth be told, as a Trump voter in 2016 and 2020, I was privately hoping that the prophecies of his restoration to the White House were true and that the courts would find massive voter fraud, overturning the elections.
But at a prayer retreat in Texas in early December, it became totally clear to me that this would not happen. I simply knew that I knew that this was the case, and I knew Joe Biden would be inaugurated on January 20th.
After that, I was simply waiting for the right moment on my radio show to share this publicly, wanting to extend a safety net to the many whose faith would be shattered when Biden, rather than Trump, was installed as president.
Unfortunately, even after January 20th, many remained in denial.
Some set new dates (after guaranteeing that Biden would never serve as our president). "You watch and see what will happen in March. Make that April. Actually, August. I mean September."
Others concocted convoluted, hyper-spiritual theories, allegedly received by divine revelation. "Actually, Trump is our president, enthroned by God in heaven. Biden has no real presidential authority."
Still, others said, "The prophets were right and Trump did win the election. That's why we need to continue to fight for him to be reinstated. We can never accept the steal, and Biden will never be our president."
The fact is that, whether there was fraud or not, Joe Biden is our president, as recognized by our Congress and courts.
As for Trump, he is not our president, and he is not going to be miraculously restored to the White House any time soon. (Again, this is apart from him potentially running in 2024.)
Can we finally admit that this is the case and move on? Or will we be setting dates for the military to remove Biden in 2022 (or 2023), in keeping with yet another conspiratorial fantasy? I certainly hope we will not.
All of us can mistakes. All of us can be wrong about our prognostications. All of us can misjudge a situation. And all of us can have faulty "sources" that, in the end, mislead us rather than inform us. And sometimes, to be brutally honest, we just get conned.
The problem is when we can't admit that and learn from our mistakes. The problem is when, as leaders in particular, we cannot acknowledge that our errors have led others into error. The problem is when we blameshift or even misdirect, being more concerned with rallying our base rather than admitting our guilt.
In this regard, a typical tactic would be to attack the messenger, in this case, accusing me of being weak. Or a RINO (I'm actually a registered Independent who votes Republican, based on conservative principles rather than party affiliation). Or approving of abortion (as if recognizing Biden as president makes me guilty of shedding innocent blood). Or lacking in faith. Or being unspiritual. Or whatever.
But that's the least of my concerns. In fact, it is not my concern at all, since I'm not writing this to gain popularity or support.
To the contrary, as the risk of alienating some readers, my only concern is that those who were deceived or misled or misinformed would come to grips with reality, learn from their mistakes, and come out as better men and women for it. As for those leaders who misled or misinformed others, now would be a good time to say, "It looks like I was wrong, and I apologize for speaking falsely and getting your hopes up for nothing. I intend to learn from this and not repeat such errors."
And how will the Lord respond? As the Word says, He opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.
So, where the shoe fits, get low and receive grace. God also lifts up the humble.
Yep... I couldn’t agree more.
He’s just letting it all play out.”
Just. WTF?!

PS The Trump Group is selling assets (a hotel of $75mil) - whatever that may mean.
That part, at least, is true. All major decisions are made by his handlers.
“He can do more on the side lines.”
Do more on the side lines? Complete nonsense.
Yep, as everybody knows, that is where true power lies.
Just to be clear...I specifically said “personally know”...
It is clear to me that there was a legal pathway that was conceptually possible, but as anyone knows, the gulf between conceptual and real can be quite vast.
“...The purpose of this article is not to mock, ridicule, or insult. Nor am I here to gloat or say, “I told you so.”...”
~~~~~~
After reading it, it seemed that the whole purpose of the article was exactly that
Agree.
He’s not even cute, by half, with his feigned “innocence”.
It’s not his first time to let his NeverTrumpness, and his opinion on this subject known, either…..

I don’t know what former President Trump’s future may hold or what his political aspirations may be. But I do know this: I will not be focused on his every move
https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3935057/posts
Now THAT is funny!
Hear hear!
I wish I had a dime for every “prophet” who said God told them Trump would be re-elected or restored. They had the Marks biting down on every word and sending $$$. This is NOT the first time the Democrats have cheated and won an election. They still get to hold the office.
The ultra-wealthy really do control the process. The only reason Trump was President is they decided they didn’t need to cheat to get Hillary in office. They weren’t going to make that same mistake twice.
I suggest Pompeo is Deep State at its Deepest. We might like what he says during the campaign, but not what actually happens if he is selected to win.
I will never put the word, President, with the name of b i d e n. I feel strongly that if/since the dems went outside the law and put a weak wasted man in the office of the President, and weakened our status in the world, and gave china the idea they can take territory and attack the US... all because the giant country United States of America, has been weakened.
I am embarrassed and ashamed to see the senile man who rambles and does not know where he is... just think what that looks like to the world... is that the best we can do? is that all we have? is obama having a 3rd term behind the curtain and giving the orders? is all this legal? is all this good for us? you all know the answer to that... and however... HOWEVER we do it.. their actions make it necessary for us to get Trump back in the white house.
cam you imagine that senile guy.. weak and frail.. in there for 4 years???? it can’t be... why would ae let that go on for 4 years? what are you thinking about, republicans? you going to let him stay in there with that harris woman.. and make this country as vulnerable as it’s ever been!!! Please say no and do something!!
I’m convinced Bagster is Echoir
You nailed it !
Re: 19 - General Mac - served his country well and with honor.
He is making loony comments. His credibility is suspect.
The key to any 2nd term will be to also have the house and Senate under GOP control. True this will also include RINOs within the GOP but better them than Dems. We can at least try to primary RINOs
Special K. You are not a troll because Bagster says so. You are a troll because you are a troll.
But also make no mistake....
Hey, let's just ban everybody who doesn't meekly comply with the derp state, sit down, and shut up. We'll let the enemy write the stories and be the news.
Yea, that's the ticket.
More dittos.
It is/was a hard thing to accept that the best president ever was to be replaced by a disgusting old man who gets a thrill out of feeling up little girls on camera. Who’s son was a fellow perv and grifter. That our only msm outlet had fully turned commie. That so many republicans had to be either in on the steal or lacked the balls to fight. That knowing biden’s mental state that we were to have a shadow government that’s basically obama 3.0. That all judges were fine with the coup.
The only thing left to cling to was the military stepping in but the military leaders quickly let us know they were aligned with the left.
So then we had quite a few people say they knew they had the goods. Kraken lady, Mike Lindell with his terabytes of packets, AZ gets a full audit.
All things failed. Now we find out there’s a global movement against the US and every Western nation.
The key to any 2nd term will be to also have the house and Senate under GOP control.
You mean like the first two years of Trump’s first term? Apparently, the GOP’s hatred and obstruction of the MAGA agenda has already gone down the memory hole. Should President Trump get another term it will be exactly like the first. Guaranteed.
