A Besieged Trump Presidency Ahead
Real Clear Politics ^ | Patrick Buchanan

Posted on 11/22/2016 7:03:15 PM PST by bobk3

A time for truth. Despite the post-election, bring-us-together talk of unity, this country is hopelessly divided on cultural, moral and political issues, and increasingly along racial and ethnic lines.

Many Trump voters believe Hillary Clinton belongs in a minimum-security facility, while Hillary Clinton told her LGBT supporters half of Trump's voters were racists, sexists, homophobes, xenophobes and bigots.

Donald Trump's presidency will be a besieged presidency, and he would do well to enlist, politically speaking, a war cabinet and White House staff that relishes a fight and does not run.

The battle of 2016 is over.

The long war of the Trump presidency has only just begun.

I happened to see Prune Blitzer’s display of the Radical left’s expected attack on President Trump.

I prayed that God would guide voters during the election.
After watching CNN, this it going to be dreadful term for attacks on Trump. I hope everyone prays for God to give DJT strength to withstand the onslaught.

It’s going to be ugly.
Sean Spicer is a super spokesman for the RNC.

It all starts in our schools and colleges. The media is simply reinforcing the leftist, anti-American, anti-Christian indoctrination of our future generations

Our education system MUST be retaken

A besieged Trump Presidency? Trump progressed to the Presidency on a sea change that has only begun.

It’ll be 40 years of Hell for the Left should it survive for that long.

Well, I, for one, don’t want to hear Rush or Hannity talk so much about Trump being impeached, or a besieged Presidency... for it seems talking so much about it would for sure bring it on. I believe Trump will be so successful and jobs will be increased, a better healthcare will come into being for so many who are without since obamacare, and as more and more see things are improving.. the stock market up... things working for us.. I believe, except for most of the media, there will be an acceptance of Trump. He is handling everything with a calm and an assurance that is bound to change some minds. I just think it will improve and after 8 years of negatives, Please, Rush and Hannity.. stop with the continued negatives and Hannity... stop playing the blacklivesmatter touting their slogan... it’s ugly and I’m ready for a new President.. don’t take away our hope already, before it even gets a good start!

I just turned Hannity off, as he was playing every negative thing he could find... and I don’t want to hear it any more. I want Rush and Hannity to give hope a chance and stop the negatives!

Don’t worry. When it becomes ‘cool’ to like Trump, all these suckups will be kissing his arse desperate to get an interview.

Trump cannot operate his presidency and we cannot fix this country until the tyranny of the MSM is defeated.

Yep. I have been saying the same thing. The biggest political enemy we face is the MSM propaganda. One way to chip away at it is via the WH press briefings. I could see a savvy spokesperson spending a good bit of the time exposing and correcting the MSM media. That only works if the public actually sees what happens. Thus -- a friendly mass media is required to report on the rest of the MSM. We need a buyout of Fox or CNN and gutting of their staff and anchors.

The time has come to deal with the American marxists once and for all.

The CPUSA thorough its front group the Democratic Party is very much alive and in full control of the Academia, the Courts, and the Press.

In fact, the CPUSA was responsible for the Hussein Obama rise to the Presidency. His handler is the Iranian communist Valerie Jarrett.

The CPUSA has organized the American blacks, homosexuals, and illegal aliens into a de facto Shock Troop.

It has operatives in all Federal Agencies including the FBI and CIA as well as State and Local governments and unions.

Their game is to use blacks , homosexuals, and illegal alien as a means to destabilize American Society, transform our national demographic into a white minority ,weaken our military,and destroy our educational system, economy and way of life.

Even now they are brazenly executing white cops in broad daylight

The CPUSA is wildly succeeding, not only managing to accomplish their goals but confound the GOP into not even recognizing that they are behind the operation.

In order to eliminate this threat, the CPUSA and those allied with it must be ruthlessly pursued and neutralized no matter where they may be.

No longer bothering to hide and operate in the shadows, they are now out in plain sight and are easy pickings.

Upon regaining power in 2017 the counter attack by the hard Right must be swift and merciless.

Hit the marxists so hard they will never recover or have the ability to win national office ever again.

Indeed. Get rid of the Leftwing thought-predators in education. They’re castrating America’s youth with a vengeance.

But there are also many excellent education districts that must be recognized. Hell, the underdogs fighting within the Leftwing districts deserve support too!

Now to my MSM rant... Don’t patronize the parent companies facilitating Marxism: Disney, Comcast, Time Warner.

Four years of yelling back at liberals doesn’t faze me one bit. Been too nice too long. You fight these people on your chosen ground, right here. Hillary got creamed on the Internet and it looks like nobody has had the courage to let her know. The MSM are getting creamed too, and it appears just as dimly to them. This just might be fun.

I agree. And this reads like a script for a Trump reelection commercial. After 4 years of these AHs blocking traffic, disrupting folks, and being lawless jackasses, anyone they support is doomed.☺

Pat is right on the money. And Trump announcing he won’t prosecute Hillary OR the Clinton Foundation was his first sign of weakness. He has totally misread them. They will come for him with a vengeance.

And Mitt Romney fits into this how? He doesn't. If Trump offers an olive branch to the GOPe by way of a Mitt appointment, he will have lost the first and most important battle of the ongoing war.

Drop some truth bombs on us, brother. I can’t guess at your suggestion.

One of Trump’s personality traits is he is a giver. He likes to help others less fortunate. He likes to share his wealth and his position, when he can. He doesn’t mind being nice. He aims to win, but he doesn’t aim to hit others time after time. It seems he thinks hillary has been hit and since she got drunk and looked awful on TV, she must have been taken down a notch or two and she must be almost down and out.

That would be a mistake on Trump’s part. She has spent her entire life to be where she thought she would be after the election. She already is working on the delegates... she isn’t done yet.. Trump can very well change his mind when he sees her up and fighting again after he thought she was down and out.

What fun that would be!

The First Amendment does not protect subversion. So, Trump would not be violating the First Amendment if he went after subversives. The fact that subversives are are so numerous in the media is not a reason to let them continue undermining our Christian republic. The rights of good, honest journalists like James O’Keefe would not be in danger if Trump drained the swamp.

Don't know of any Trump supporters who believe that.

The most charitable ones want her in Supermax. The least charitable want her to swing on the end of a rope. Lock her up! (Until she's exhausted all her appeals...)

The Culture War enemies need to be exposed, arrested and sentenced as the subversives and traitors that they are. It’s well past the time for cleaning out our media, the federal bureaucracy, our colleges and universities and the arts/entertainment spheres that the scum have taken over and co-opted. Godless leftists, having succeeded in those places, have now creeped into the corporate sphere and even our military. If they are not stopped now, it’ll be over. But we need to act swiftly —which will require some extraordinary measures.
