Trump still a GOP titan: 'A restoration is coming'
WASHINGTON TIMES ^ | 1/31/2021 | dave boyer

Former President Donald Trump is behaving like he never left office.

Out of power for more than a week, Mr. Trump has created an “Office of the Former President,” staffed with former White House aides to “advance the interests of the United States and to carry on the agenda” of his administration.

He is handing out political endorsements. He has backed Kelli Ward for a second term as chairwoman of the Arizona Republican Party (she won) and former White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders for governor of Arkansas in 2022. Still cut off from social media, Mr. Trump released the statement endorsing Mrs. Sanders through his new political action committee, Save America.

A top Trump official, former Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought, announced Tuesday the formation of two more organizations to keep driving the momentum of the Trump agenda.

“A restoration is coming. Join us,” he wrote in The Federalist.

Just as he did in office, Mr. Trump is delivering unsubtle warnings to Republican senators that he will ruin them politically if they vote for his conviction next month.

The former president also is monitoring closely which Republicans are still with him, as Sen. Kevin Cramer of North Dakota can attest.

Mr. Cramer was at home Saturday when he received what he termed a “strategic” phone call from Brian Jack, who was a White House political director under Mr. Trump. Mr. Jack told the senator that he had just spoken with Mr. Trump.

“The president wanted me to just express again his gratitude for your support over the years,” Mr. Jack said, according to the senator.

The Trump aide never mentioned the upcoming impeachment trial. Instead, he said Mr. Trump wanted to tamp down rumors that he was planning to form a breakaway third party to

And he said just a few days ago:

“I’m not finished yet.”

There is no limit to the creativity of President Trump. I read that some numbskull media person was getting anxious because of Trump’s “radio silence”.
Republicans in office, and those who want to be/stay in office, understand that Trump is a very powerful and popular person with voters, including minority and female voters.
Thank you President Trump and Melania for working so hard for Americans and the USA!!

Well, he’s only silent because he’s literally been SILENCED! No Twitter, Facebook, MSM. . .I guess he could get on Steve Bannon’s War Room. That would be GREAT!

I do miss Trump’s daily tweets, very much.

Or, for an even bigger audience (and, I DO enjoy War Room) would be to go on Rush’s show, again.

Any time he wants!

I listened to the long conversation Rush and Trump held on Rush’s show maybe a month before the election. A bit of an airing of grievances, but then both men have a lot to air.

It was amazing, listening to these two stunning, effective, amazing men. Loved it! Yes Trump and Rush—a great duo.

Can you imagine a fireside chat with these two brilliant minds?

“Trump is behaving like he never left office.”
“Trump is delivering unsubtle warnings.”

Confusing. Who is the sixth grade student that wrote the article?

Thankfully, Trump rules the patriots in every country throughout the world. And he knows it.

Today the local leftist garbage newspaper used the term “Trump in the headline on the front page. Even losers in the media know what is popular and what sells.

At impeachment he will have the world’s largest stage and audience and all he needs to do is ask where is the SITTING President and why is John Roberts not here to judge him. Behind him should be the constutional remedy for impeachment of a SITTING PRESIDENT. NO NEED for anything else to inform the world what a fraud is being perpetrated upon the American people and himself.

This is one of the very important reasons why I love President Trump....

The waste of time.. money... et al.. in our gov.... Trump does not waste anything.. he is ON IT!
and I’m glad he let it be known what he will NOT tolerate!!!

I am so glad he is carrying on as usual.!!!

I heard a guy on Am Voice today say what biden had on his plate...in the coming weeks... and I thought.. it isn’t biden who has this.. its obama.. rice.. aoc.. harris... anyone but the old man biden.

which brought to mind how much everyone lies.. to save face in a conversation.

reporters do it all the time.. as Rush said.. I live in realville.. or truthville...

the words AND and BUT .... use one or the other .. to change the meaning in a sentence..

reporters summarize in reports.. and lie all the time.. to do now what used to be a no-no.

Still cut off from social media

Maybe they should set up social media accounts for "Mar-a-Lago."

I was thinking the other day, sacrilegiously....

When the Romans were coming to get Jesus, his disciples said, let’s run and let’s fight. Jesus just said, aw hell naw, let’s have dinner. Trump is like Jesus in a way, the Democrats are coming to get him, and he is saying, aw hell naw, let’s play golf.

People are wondering why Pedo’s “EOs” are nearly all being “delayed” for 30 days.
