Why I Will Always Support Donald Trump
American Thinker ^ | September 4, 2023 | Robin M. Itzler

Posted on 09/08/2023 7:15:02 AM PDT by SoConPubbie

How can educated men like former Vice President Mike Pence, former Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson, former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, and former Texas Representative Will Hurd be so stupid? (I am leaving out former Attorney General Bill Barr since he’s busy looking at bridges.) They have spent much of their lives in Republican politics and yet have a minuscule understanding of the largest grassroots Republican movement in modern history that is embraced and endorsed by more than half of Republicans—primarily the “base.”

No Republican can win the nomination without the MAGA base. America First Patriots stand with Donald Trump just as we did in 2016 and 2020. These Republican elitists, along with Marxist Democrats, are suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome and accuse us of being in a cult of personality. What chutzpah! We are proudly in a Cult of Patriotism!

Never Trumpers say we shouldn’t litigate the last election. If a loved one had been murdered in 2020, would they stop trying to find the assailant just because a few years have passed? To many Patriots, America’s cherished election process was murdered in 2020 and the culprit has yet to be arrested and tried in court.

June 16, 2015

When Donald Trump rode down the Trump Tower golden escalator and formally announced his candidacy, he had me and millions of other Patriots at hello. During his 46-minute speech, we knew Trump would win the election. It was just a matter of waiting for everyone else to board the Trump Train.

“No Republican can win the nomination without the MAGA base.”

Beyond that, no Republican can even win a SINGLE STATE in the November Election without the support of the MAGA Base.

And if it takes down the Republican Party so be it.

At least we get rid of the illusion that there is a choice, and we can go from there.

You can add former Vice President Dick Cheney to that list.

I’m hard pressed to think of anything Trump did in his Administration that wasn’t conservative nor anything Republicans have been campaigning on to their base.

We know what a RINO is, and the GOPe. They “say” what we want to hear during the election, but right after they win, they “do” and vote for not-Republican things.

That is such a slap in the face.

Who exactly is disrespecting who? Those lying candidates or the voters who believed their lies?

However, remember the adage “Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.”

I’ll never vote for a McCain, Romney or Bush—or any others like them—again. Those days are over forever.

At least with Donald Trump we have someone who does what he says he’s going to do.

US Senator Joanie Ernst (R-Ia) was the keynote speaker at a Republican dinner yesterday in Cook County, Illinois. During her remarks, she highlighted how much better the American economy was under President Trump and how affordable groceries and gasoline were.

A straw poll was conducted that ought to shock the RINO establishment leaders. Trump dominated with 47%. De Santis was a distant second with 22% while Haley managed only 11%. The rest of the field split the scattered remaining votes.

It is still Trumps game to lose, they should be terrified, but I am all in!

Amen! It is a painful reality, but reality nonetheless.

A well written article that frankly could have been written by a poster here on FR. It makes alot of sense at every level.

Make sure the paper ballots are preserved since they have fingerprints.

The main election thieves are probably government employees that probably have been fingerprinted.

The House of Representatives has investigatory powers. It is important to find out if the US mail system has been misused in federal elections.

“How can educated men...”

There’s plenty of them who vote Democrat and will never vote for Trump. It’s amazing how smart and educated some people are but are so ignorant on the Constitution. I have neighbors and family that fall into that category. Also, they don’t know what they don’t know. The have no idea about Biden’s corruption. Scary.

If necessary, an Amendment VI-based examination of fingerprints of persons officially considered to have voted or processed ballots in contested areas could be collected and compared by FBI-class means with the fingerprints on ballots considered received from those contested areas. Amendment VI can be a mighty instrument when backed by a billionaire’s bucks.

Donald J. Trump was the greatest President in my lifetime. And that includes Ronald Reagan, too.

There are three key measures of the man’s legacy, in my book:

1. He has attracted the hatred of every political figure who is an @sshole in my book.

2. He’s probably the only President in history to leave office less wealthy than he was when he was inaugurated.

3. He doesn’t need the sh!t he is dealing with, but he’s back for more.

Trump will be the party nominee. If these so called "candidates" cared about your average Republican and wanted to build a team that could do great good, they would immediately get on the Trump train, meet with him, find out how they could help.

You pretty much nailed it for me.

Lord knows I don’t always want a guy like Trump for President. But right now, he is what we need, if for nothing else to throw a wrench into what the Deep State has planned for us.

Once the danger is past, then we can go back to normal. These are not normal times.

The Trump 2024 flag flying at my house is all you need to know about my choice this time

She seems to be pretty impressive:
https://karilake.com/issues

“We’re going to get back to teaching American history, not anti-American history. That doesn’t mean ignoring our flaws, but it does mean standing up to the revisionist attacks on the past progressives are using to promote their ideology.

“Instead, kids need real, quality education that starts with the basics and ensures students have a complete grasp of them, before moving on to the advanced learning they need to succeed in a high-tech, fast paced world. Schools, and students, must be held to the highest standard, and the excuses for not doing so need to stop, also.

“As Governor, I will ensure that our schools have the resources and support they need to give our kids their very best chance at a lifetime of success. I will ensure that parents have every available option to give their kids the best education possible – great public schools, great charter schools, great technical schools, and real support for homeschool parents.”

“When the pandemic hit, states across the country – including Arizona - put the hammer down on small businesses, forcing their closure, limiting their occupancy, and requiring costly modifications to their operations. At the same time, they bent over backwards to accommodate the needs of many big box stores and online retailers. The damage those policies did will be felt for decades.

“I care far more about the local retired couple who poured their life savings into a restaurant and then had government take it away from them than I do the shareholders of Walmart or Amazon. I will never allow our state to do anything like this, ever again.

“No shutdowns, no restrictions, no favorites.

“In a public health crisis, or any crisis, it is the responsibility of the government to give our citizens the very best, most accurate information possible, and allow them to make their own informed decisions. I trust you, the people of Arizona, to do what’s best for you, your family, and your neighbors over bureaucrats who are mostly interested in protecting their careers.”

The RNC would rather lose elections and retain power, than win elections and lose operational control over the apparatus.  - sundance

Here’s the problem with that scenario:

In 2016, Trump became the only presidential candidate in my lifetime to openly oppose his own party’s national platform on major issues. This is why so many of the GOP’s feckless frauds despise him.
