Trumps Honeymoon is Over
Vanity | 12/15/2025 | Self

Posted on 12/15/2025 2:55:31 AM PST by CptnObvious

Trumps Honeymoon is over.

Before we count the ways, a couple of simple observations:

1) Why are we surprised?

For every action, there is an equal (or greater) reaction. It just took a bit more to get over Shock and Awe.

and

2) Why listen to the Democrats when they speak about Republicans?

They certainly, when the shoe is on the other foot, don't.

And, ditto, that goes for their minions in the press.

There, a couple moments of clarity you won't find on 24 hour news.

-> It took a while for the Good Old Boy network of the GOP to find its voice in Indiana. They said, "No" to redistricting.

Funny, they did not propose a solution on How to Win the Mid Terms. And therein, they signaled their surrender to the Democrats.

Why am I anything but underwhelmed that they coalesced in Mike Pence's state. Mike, Trump's former VP, seems to be with the Democrats on anything but Trump.

As for their support of Federal Unions, along with the Democrats, got in the first shot against one of Trump's Executive Orders.

Certainly, Federal Unions can do Strikes at the Federal Reserve. Biden's Fed chairman keeps doing the least he can to unblock the Housing Market, one drip drab at a time.

It's just that the Old Network, can't seem to find anything but ineffective.

Oh, and did you finally do anything about Voter Fraud and the Mail in (Fiasco) Ballots since this was on your watch?

Funny, but Trump clearly has that in his EO sights too.

-> As for the Libertarian wing of the GOP, Rand Paul, found his voice against the blowing up of a struck Venezuelan drug boat. Nevermind, that the boats are armed and were headed our way. Nevermind, that nation is designated a Terrorist State.

And, oh, please, how pleased are the Democrats and their mind numbing weasels, that you joined them once again.

I hope it was worth it.

-> As for the Kum-By-Yah wing of the GOP, they like their the aging Liberals in the Democratic Party, are getting Primaried out at a regular clip. If not as effective as Biden these days.

Speaking of which, the Dems have a similar problem as we do, that of being eclipled by a more powerful force - The Wokies (Woke- Marxist Socialists like AOC).

-> That leaves the Newest and most powerful wing of the GOP. MAGA and it's leader You-Know-Who and his heir apparent JD Vance.

This is a force beyond anything as the GOP or the DEMs has seen in since the last century.

Politicians actually doing what they say.

Ones that are effective against the Dems and their weasels in the Press.

Ones that deliver for the American People, by God, for once.

And, not, like a slew of Dems, drowning us in Regulations, but do the opposite (to get rid of the crap).

The real question about them is whether they will stay or go. If, they go, you can kiss your hiney goodbye.

My guess is like the Liberals by the Wokies, the GOPe is by MAGA.

-> As to Trump, my guess is that the fun has just begun.

Have to go shovel the half foot of snow received overnight. I’ll check back later though. Nice vanity BTW.

He never got a honeymoon from the dem-o-rats. It just took awhile for them to find a way to lie to the sheeple and have it stick.

Yup it’s over we can all line up and get our new rice cooker and a signed copy of the Communist Manifesto - it’s over -REALLY ??
Go away. Surrender Monkeys love this stuff but we have a country to save and don’t really care what you think.

What make you think Trump ever had a honeymoon? He can’t even get the Republican controlled Congress to appoint his nominees to run the government.

UNIPARTY. If one manages to get elected and isn’t a part of it; they will get dirt on a person, and one will become part of it.

Too many MAGAs think Trump is the Government Fairy and can wave his magic wand, making everything you want happen all at once.

Those idiotic people are disappointed that in less than a year Trump has been unable to fully achieve one or more pet objectives of theirs, and they say stupid stuff like “I’m not voting in the mid-terms.”

The Constitutional powers of the President are limited by design. Moreover, Trump faces unique challenges in an intransigent Deep State and an array of rogue judges, neither of which any other President has faced at this scale.

Nevertheless, in less than a year Trump has kept more of his campaign promises than any other President since FDR.

Some of you people need to wise up. There is no Government Fairy. It’s a hard slog, and we’re winning—unless YOU mess it up, Doomsters. Don’t mess it up.

There is no difference between Republicans and Democrats.

There has never been a Trump honeymoon. The Deep State attacked before he was sworn in in 2017 and they haven’t let up. The dims and deep staters will scream the sky is falling but that’s not going to stop people from looking at their own situation and voting accordingly.

THIS! With Lamestream media blasting lies 24/7 in senior’s living rooms, it’s no wonder the polls say he’s “losing popularity.” ™

”Too many MAGAs think Trump is the Government Fairy ……….”

Excellent words to the doom-sayers! That was my thoughts too when I read this article. But you said it better than I could have written.

I’ll just add one thing…..
If God is ordering President Trumps steps, and I do believe He is, then it will all happen in God’s good timing, not ours, and for God’s good reasons that we can not possibly understand.

There’s only one poll that matters. Remember in 2016 when election results were finally coming in and the media polls were wrong? I also remember reading that Cobb county Georgia voter turnout was 104% and couldn’t understand how that could happen when my parents didn’t vote at all.

To be clear, Cynical Publius said it. He’s a must-follow on X.

Trump’s biggest enemy is the establishment Republican party and the bow tie Nerds and thieves in charge.
