I definitely have mixed feelings about the whole thing 😕 I think you’re right about a lot of it but I can’t help but be frustrated and disappointed by the lack of results in some important areas. And definitely the treatment of the J6 people especially 😕 I know Trump is not a savior but I do think he dropped the ball on a few very important issues. Still, he also did a lot of good and showed clearly how deep and ugly and powerful the state bureaucrat network is. And how traitorous the RINO wing of the Republican Party is too. All things we suspected but that really came to light with his presidency.
RunningLogic, I hear what you’re saying but a lot of the things that didn’t happen that we wanted to happen with President Trump or things that went wrong were because he (and his supporters) were faced with a David vs Goliath situation, except in his situation Goliath “won”. And the swamp wants us to blame Trump and be discouraged because it plays right into their plans. They’re after him because he is a threat to their lies, corruption and their power if exposed. Trump isn’t perfect, nor am I, but at this point I think he’s the only person who’s willing to fight back and stand up against the evil and tyranny. I’m not looking for a savior because I know Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior, but I’m looking for someone who has a spine of steel and the courage to call out the corruption and the people involved, and to solve the many problems our nation is facing. At this point I believe Trump is the only one in the field willing to do that.
Yes I definitely see your points. I do think he was up against a far bigger foe than he expected and people who seemed to support him were actually snakes in the grass.
The Revolutionary War, actually more a CW, was a long, mostly losing affair for the Patriots until through hard fought brutal battles in the South led to victory at Yorktown with crucial French fleet and ground forces.
George Washington had many defeats before the miracle at Trenton saved the revolution from defeat.
True that. Not a "revolution" in the destructive, chaotic sense like a Communist revolution or the French Revolution. Actually, the French Revolution was the first "communist" revolution and the Nazis and the Bolsheviks were the children of what was essentially the left wing of the Enlightenment. The American Revolution/Secession was the child of the right wing of the Enlightenment via Scottish Rationalism heavily influenced by Christianity and British Common law. "A Tale of Two Cities."
You think he dropped the ball on some important issues? Who are we to even know how those things came down? A state representative spoke yesterday, she had gotten criticism for endorsing a certain bill. The truth of the matter was, if she hadn’t been on that committee to defang that bill, it would’ve passed in a dangerous form, instead of the nothingburger that it is now. We make a way too many assumptions about our politicians instead of standing behind them.
You make a good point, but I still have the right to criticize and ask questions. He hasn’t explained anything behind the scenes as you described in your example, and maybe he can’t for some reason. But given that I have no information about any of his behind the scenes work, I can still regret that some issues weren’t addressed as I would have liked. Trump is also human and makes mistakes sometimes, so it’s not necessarily true that he did things behind the scenes in every case to mitigate any potentially negative effects. I don’t like to blindly stand behind anyone. I don’t understand this seeming need to be uncritically supportive of anything and everything a political figure (or anyone else for that matter) does. I liked Reagan a lot but I still think his signing the childhood vaccine act was a huge mistake. I’m sure he probably did it for what he thought were good reasons but it was still a bad idea. I know, hindsight is 20/20 but we can use those experiences to do better in the future.
I only make assumptions about Trump because I can do nothing else, since he can’t or won’t explain what his strategy or behind the scenes moves are. I would definitely like to know more about why Trump makes the moves and choices he does, he doesn’t really seem to explain a lot about that or at least isn’t always very clear about it. Hopefully we’ll know more at some point.

Very true and good to remember. It’s darkest before the dawn.
It was a secession.
True that. Not a "revolution" in the destructive, chaotic sense like a Communist revolution or the French Revolution. Actually, the French Revolution was the first "communist" revolution and the Nazis and the Bolsheviks were the children of what was essentially the left wing of the Enlightenment. The American Revolution/Secession was the child of the right wing of the Enlightenment via Scottish Rationalism heavily influenced by Christianity and British Common law. "A Tale of Two Cities."
It was a long and grueling 7 year war with the British, the premier military empire on the planet.

I Agree, Trump needs to Answer some hard questions.
Agree too. I want to hear an explanation for his vaccine/Covid decisions, I want to know what went on behind the scenes both good and bad.
