Is Nothing Happening? Or is Trump is Channeling Sun Tzu?
American Thinker ^ | Brian Joondeph

Posted on 12/29/2020 4:05:04 AM PST by RoosterRedux

Perhaps more is going on than I can see, but what is visible to 75 million Trump supporters, those who have endured ridicule and scorn for supporting their president, is that nothing is happening. This is Trump’s administration and he’s the boss...

*snip*

The buck stops with him. If nothing is happening, then that’s on him. Is he flailing away in a vain attempt to win a second term?

*snip*

At one level it sure seems that way. The clock is ticking with important electoral dates breezing by, getting ever closer to the final date of Jan. 20? On the other hand, President Trump may be playing a different game, one not obvious to most observers, certainly not the media or even his supporters.

*snip*

At this point, it’s a binary choice. Either Trump is in over his head and will be dragged out of office. Or he is executing his plan, on his terms and timing, as he has done since his famous escalator ride at Trump Tower in 2015.

Trump knows the stakes for himself, his family, and America if Kamala Harris and Joe Biden get the keys to the kingdom...

*snip*

Ponder these words from Trump’s inspiration, Sun Tzu,

Is Trump unprepared? Au contraire. Listen to Oprah interviewing him in 1988, more than thirty years ago. He looks younger but sounds the same as he does now, speaking of China, immigration, and electoral politics. Trump has been preparing for this moment most of his adult life.

Buckle up for an interesting few weeks ahead.

“Trump should resign at 9 am on Inauguration Day. That would make Pence the 46th president."

Yeah, for three hours. What's that supposed to accomplish?

“All the merchandise with Biden 46 on it would be spoiled, I guess?”

No, it would be instantly collectible.

If you want to know what is going on, follow Trump, his handful of supporters in Congress, Lin Wood, Sidney Powell, and Jenna Ellis on Twitter.

Agree. Beyond a rigged election, there is no way someone as compromised as Biden can be put in the highest office in our country, which would allow China's influence to be sitting right there with him. It would mean someone who sold influence for some mighty high stinking dollars could continue on without consequence to him or his family. It would mean the destruction of the Constitution which would mean the destruction of America. Trump stands between us and that, and he can't/won't stand down.

Dont you get it? The point is to create utter chaos for the Dims. Yet, you make a good point.
It probably would be better if Trump resigned sooner....to give Pence time to create even more chaos.
Plus Pence could also issue E/O's that decimate the Dims plans.

Still, I am dying to see some of the (cough) 81 million Biden voters at his Inauguration.......
the walking dead, the 2-3 algorithm techs, The Dominion crooks, and last, but certainly not least,.....
the Chinese print shop workers who mfg all the absentee and mail-in ballots.

He did not anticipate that.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Well picking someone who was part of the deep state certainly increased the odds that the deep state coup would be successful.

He needed to throw the gauntlet down right then. Acceding to Barr was when Trump lost the war.

Not every battle is won in a War for the overall winning side......

Short-game versus long-game strategy......

Don’t know if President Trump has a “trump card” up his sleeve or has planned a tactical retreat.....

I do know this isn’t over.....

See everyone on the 6th!

Amen. I pop in once in a while and it’s always the same in here. Lots of bitching and complaining along with a very strong anti-Trump defeatism. Pathetic.

Nothing is OVER.

Nothing throughout world history has EVER been OVER.

Just in the past 100 years, powerful, bloody tyrants have relentlessly marched across the world and seemed unstoppable only to find themselves completely destroyed.

Great empires in ancient history, run by tyrants, have fallen when they seemed impossible to defeat.

Communists CANNOT GOVERN. They never stop purging and eating their own.

Look at America’s cities and states run by these lunatics. They are destroying themselves before our eyes.

How does China rule the world when they have to steal all of their ideas and technology from others?

They are right now facing food shortages. That does not sound like a super power.

They can build inferior products but others are consistently the creators of newer and better originals.

Only those living in freedom can ultimately lead the world.

Oh ye shortsighted !

What ticks me off is Trump knew they were going to steal the election, he knew they were changing election laws, he even posted on Twitter back in June 2020 “Democrats are preparing to steal the election” and what did he do about it? NOTHING. Republicans did NOTHING. Where were they when the employees of the Chicoms were getting all those laws unconstitutionally overturned by the courts? No signatures needed on mail in ballots, signatures don’t have to match, no post mark needed, late ballots OK, early ballots OK, freakin’ ridiculous. Now it’s going to be like the Mafia is running the country, the corruption is going to be unbelievable, especially if they take the Senate. Anything they want to do they can

“Nothing is happening except cheap talk. No actions. Trump leaves with a whimper.”

Only an extreme political novice would say what you have said. It is through the words of the president that almost half of America believes the election was fraudulent and despite the media loudly claiming there is no evidence it is obvious to all but the most fanatical Leftists that in fact there is the evidence to back up fraud charges.

It is not out of the question that looking at the long game the GOP may be in a better position with pedo joe and round heals Kamala in the WH (with the GOP keeping the Senate which I personally believe will happen.

If Sun Zhu was alive today he would have a copy of “The Art Of The Deal” in his bookshelf.

I’m certain Trump knows that if he lets them win his entire family will be destroyed.

Somehow I don’t think a genius IQ Queen’s boy will allow that...no matter what he has to do to prevent it.

The US Presidency has morphed into an imperial presidency...if Trump decides to he can do pretty much anything he wants...and in the end, before he sacrifices his family he will make his move.

The GOPe did nothing because they were giving the Dems a mulligan to steal the election from Trump. Trump doesn’t control the DOJ so that option is out. He could have set up Soros type NGOs but Trumpists suing states would have caused a Never Trump/Fake News firestorm. Bottom line is Trump’s hands are tied here without the support of his own party.

About 90% of people who write... are uninformed.

100% of people are uninformed about something...

Sorry, then, tell me what is happening beyond talk? Rolling over on aid to illegal aliens, limiting border wall construction, giving aid to foreign countries, pardoning Kushner? Wow, these are great to claim.

Yes, but if you know nothing about the universe, why waste people’s time with your ingnorant questions regarding astrophysics? Go read a book; don’t write one.

No he doesn’t. Mao agrees with nothing I have to say. He’s dead.
