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.

the corruption is going to be unbelievable

The corruption is already unbelievable. They openly and brazenly stole the entire election. They did it in open sight. They gave us the finger the entire time.

And yet, we allowed it.

That fits the definition of unbelievable corruption in my opinion.

Trump’s picks would have been fine, if not for the Deep State coup.

He did not anticipate that.

No one did, except the plotters.

****************************************************

Hmmmm. I beg to differ. What has this election done for us - the citizens of this country? It has laid bare the depth of the deep state and the length/breadth of their tentacles. Donald Trump has now exposed these actors to the entire country/world. This was the necessary pain that was needed to awaken us to action. The next 4 years will be one of the biggest shifts in this country in decades - maybe even centuries (one way or the other). Don’t think the depth of the corruption wasn’t understood. You are selling the President short IMHO.

Trump is extremely "legacy" oriented, which is why he puts his name on all his hotels, apartment buildings, golf courses, casinos, etc.

The idea that Trump would just walk away--with a whimper even--from the Presidency and his legacy at a time when the country is being overthrown by communists is completely out of character and sheer nonsense.

We're talking about his place in history here. The entire world is watching. All of human history is watching. All his dead ancestors are looking at him in this moment.

He can either go down as a second George Washington crossing the Delaware or he can slither into the shadows like the Cowardly Lion.

I can't guess what he is going to do, but it's gonna be Yuge.

I pray you are correct. This is the only solution to save this republic. I think once the dust settles we will have two separate countries.

We are on the same page.

I wrote "anticipated".

The rot had to be exposed.

We are in for a rough ride.

It may be too late...yet it may not be.

Remember all of the things Trump “could never do”.

Build the wall.
Renegotiate trade deals.
Tariffs.
Lower taxes and especially regulations.
Help make America energy independent.
Get a vaccine out before the end of the year.

(Short list)

“Agreed it’s over”

If its over why did the military suspend briefings to Biden’s transition team last week? Why did Whitehouse staff receive an email telling them to stop packing? Why is Biden almost non existent in the public eye?

There are things going on behind the scenes that I believe would freak us all out if we knew. Trump is being entirely too quiet.

My comments are based more on a “feeling” than anything concrete. I am also not happy with Trump signing the bill but wonder if by not signing it his short term win would have been proven to be a Pyrrhic one.

He gave up the fight, and not for the first time. Did he ever believe in the things he talked about? I have always had suspicions that he did not and I think the cumulating evidence is that he did not. This latest bill signing is more evidence that there is a big disconnect between his talk (for supporters) and his actions (not for us).

I’ve been hearing that for two months now.

snip
something about keeping your head when all others are losing theirs

What is that 800 lb gorilla doing in the middle of the room
snip

Imagine it - 6, 8 months, a year down the road it is revealed that Biden “won” through fraud with undeniable evidence.

Trump was the legitimate elected president.
snip

that’s the 800 lb sword dangling over the heads of biden, the democrats, and their newly exposed rino allies...

You betcher snip they’re watching that sword with quiet, mounting terror.

See you on Lexington Green.

“Question now is, what can be done about the fraud?”

What we should be doing is having the FBI investigate each states electoral process, people and technology, figure out what happened and close the loop. What will happen is nothing, because if we all remember this correctly, many of the State’s AG’s were funded by Soros. We always wondered what Satan was doing and why he was doing it.

Now we know.

I disagree and we will see in the end how this plays out.

Yours is an opinmion and nothing more as is what I say an opinion. Neither of us has inside information.

The fact you seem to be ignoring and writing off all the good done by this man makes me suspicious of your motives.

“What is odd is that the President has, in a way, gone silent.”

And so have Giuliani, Ellis, Wood, and Powell.

As a solid "C" history major, I can state one thing with certainty, "Things take time." Trump's presidency is an important indication of the beginning of the uniparty's end. An attempt to steal an election, whether successful or not, is moving things in a direction that would have been hard to visualize prior to Trump. I am not discouraged. I watch and wait.

The Rats/Rinos are riding the tiger.

Trump is being very quiet. He can’t afford for any leaks.

T’would be a Margaret Hamilton “I’m Melllllllting..” Moment.

As the MSM announced “-irrefuteable evidence-” that Biden did not actually win the election.

After Dirty Joe has been crapping all the Whitehouse for a year.

Oi what a delicious thought.
