Remember Obama’s fist bump, the tap—the bump—he’d give his followers? Remember how absurd and fake—and staged—the gesture was? Compare that to this: President Trump punching the air after being shot and shouting, “Fight, fight, fight.” No other image is as stark. No other comparison is as clear. No other contrast is as sharp.
No other words are necessary either, because we have before us a real profile of courage. We have a spontaneous and remarkable act of presidential courage. We have President Trump standing taller and stronger than those who guard him; than all who failed to protect him; than all who wish him dead; and mourn his survival. We have the leader we deserve.
We also have the reaction of the crowd. We can see and hear them. We understand them. We sympathize with them. We empathize with them—because we feel their pain. We mourn with them too. We remember and honor the life of a face in the crowd. We say a prayer for Corey Comperatore and his family.
We will not forget what we saw. Nor will we forgive what we heard in the aftermath of the attempted assassination of President Trump. The denials, the excuses, the attacks, the false charges, the bogus headlines and fake news—all this will not go down the memory hole.
Unlike Joe Biden, we know what happened. Unlike the media, we know why it happened. Unlike Democrats, we know why it must never happen again.
Our hearts are with the crowd, not the mob. The mob is a Democrat-run operation.
Saturday’s crowd was the opposite. No one demanded blood. No one interfered with law enforcement. If anything, the crowd helped law enforcement. The crowd saw the shooter. The crowd shouted that there was a shooter. The crowd shouted before shots were fired.
No one rioted. No one looted. No one disturbed the peace except the would-be assassin. No one protested, except to say the lack of protection—the fact that President Trump was in the crosshairs—was criminal. No “mostly peaceful” protests happened on Saturday.
Only Democrats have called President Trump an existential threat to democracy. Only Democrats have compared President Trump to Hitler. Only Democrats have the audacity to say we must come together after saying horrible lies about us. And now, Democrats want us to believe they want President Trump to live.
The media want us to believe they bear no responsibility for Saturday: that their hands are clean, that they only report the news, and that they would never—never!—try to shape or distort the news. Put another way, the people who told us to stand six feet apart want us to believe they don’t want to put President Trump six feet under.
Unlike the Democrat Party, we refuse to be a party to the fast undoing of the Constitution and the destruction of the Union. We’re in Milwaukee to celebrate life. We’re here to celebrate the life of the nominee of the Republican Party. We celebrate the chance fate has given us because President Trump is alive and well.
We thank God we can celebrate, that we shall celebrate, because we have a duty to be like President Trump: firm in the conviction that we owe our country our best; that we will do our best to carry on the work of our democracy, because America is the last best hope of earth.
We shall fight, fight, fight. That is our motto. That is our pledge.
We pledge to Make America Great Again.
No conservatives burned down businesses or went on looting rampages. A sharp contrast to the leftist street animals.
Any person that can think knows how the assassination of President Trump was planned. Praise God the perp didn’t murder President Trump. The biden people and biden planned the attempt. The perp was their pawn.
I agree,but I like to Fight to Save our Republic ! That’s what we are a Constitutional Republic! Not just a Democracy!
Btw, it’s a known fact registered repubs shoot at their nominees everyday per our lamestream media. Tell me more of your lies lamestream media. The American People know what you the lamestream media do everyday, when attention is paid. You are liars, lamestream media.
Who COACHED the perp? Was it the SS, FBI or another of the alphabet agencies or was this a coordinated effort. BTW congresscritters, how many of you are involved in the coverup? Crickets …..
I didn’t expect to almost cry when I saw that bandage on his ear. The look on his son’s face as he came out. We all know how close we came to losing this man, and how grateful we are that the scum instigated by the media went down the way he expected to take down The Greatest President Ever.
Trump, too. He was in political mode and scanning the audience for the many partnerships he’s made. And then he seemed to understand the depth of the love that huge area was directing at him and he, too, looked almost overwhelmed for an instant. It must have been deafening in that corridor where he walked. And then he straightened his clothes and moved with his head held high.
I searched YouTube for every camera angle of that walk. Hit so hard that I needed to see what all the people lined up for his triumph saw.
They saw someone whose strength comes from deep within his being recognize how close he came to not being there, and his oneness with the people who love him. He wasn’t about to let himself down, nor to let us down.
Was so grateful to see larger SS agents around him. Their eyes were constantly moving. If Biden doesn’t find the truth out of the fake investigation he’ll put together, then Trump needs to get a Truth Commission going to make the Truth come out.
You can’t bring the nation together until what happened that day is fully exposed.
Yeah, remember the Tea Party demonstrations? All those folks picked up their trash and you’d never even know a crowd had been there - yet they were excoriated.
Compare and contrast that with any “Erf Day” celebration. It takes two days to pick up all the trash.
100 miles from Shanksville PA another rebellion was born in Butler PA and DJT led the charge Saturday.
