I'm not really satisfied with Jeff's analysis on this point. If you read Whitney Webb's "One Nation Under Blackmail" books you'll see that Trump rose to wealth and power out of the same CIA/FBI/Mafia incestual pool that all the other perpetrators of Permanent Government USA did. He took actions by EO while in office that facilitated the development of the bioweapon jabs, the protection of Big (P)Harma, and the imposition of lockdown theocracy. I used to wonder if he was just the biggest idiot that's ever crawled so high on the political power ladder, but now I can't unsee what Ms. Webb has shown me (and it's all documented history).

When you add that to Trump's actions since he was selected out of office (i.e. fundraising, belly-aching, stoking the rage of his acolytes, but nothing meaningful to effect change...) and now his refusal to be right alongside DeSantis in calling the bioweapon what it is (and DEMANDING it be pulled from the market TODAY - not ONE more dead athlete, child, young person, etc!), he is culpable. He, too, shares responsibility for the murder of millions. He knows. He can't not know.

"but nothing meaningful to effect change..." you have to, at a minimum, ignore the Supreme Court and the hundreds or more conservative judges appointed to be serious about this statement. A great gift to us since he's been out of office.

That comment was about his actions since being out of office. He's done nothing. If he was serious about how urgently we need to correct course in this country, he would have run for Congress and he would now be Speaker. Third in line for the presidency when Biden is shoved off by his handlers (it's coming...) and Kamala is impeached for her crimes.

Instead, he's fundraising for a presidential run in 2024 when the damage will already be done.

It makes no sense, unless you figure he, too, is part of the Permanent Government USA. He's just paid to be an actor on the "conservative side" of the aisle to keep the People hoping and voting harder.... while nothing changes.

By the by, those Supreme Court judges he nominated have done ZILCH about returning elections to the People. They had several chances and intentionally refused to do anything to require States to true their vote. Until the Permanent Government is fired from counting the votes, there will be Permanent Government ad infinitum.

The Speaker does not have to be an elected representative. He (she) just has to be nominated and receive a majority of the voted from those casting votes.

I basically agree with your comments. I admit that I am particularly angry with Trump. He interfered in Pennsylvanian Republican primaries, and left us residents with far left Josh Shapiro as Governor, And impaired John Fetterman as Senator. He sent me fundraising emails for Herschel Walker, and I later learned Herschel received only 10% of the proceeds. At least I was smart enough to donate directly, not via Trump.

I think Jeff is too kind to Trump. I grant his point about a Trump about face. But Trump should just stop touting the vaccine and Operation Warp Speed. But Trump's ego won't let him. I want to turn the page and support a new generation.

From the Supreme Court's rejection of the Taxes lawsuit challenging the election fraud and unconstitutional actions of those individual states, I'd say one has to at least question whether Trump's Court nominations were as conservative as promoted. But, I will agree with you on the lower court judge appointments.

But, I challenge Jeff's assertion the Trump had the best political "instincts" since Ronald Reagan. That wasn't my observation.

Trump's popularity and election were because of his status as the ultimate "outsider". But, once in office he surrounded himself, at the behest of his unelected daughter and son in law, from the same pool of swamp creatures that have been destroying this country for decades.

And he threatened twice to shut the government down if he didn't get funding for the wall at the southern border. And twice he caved.

Tally up this and so many other instances along with the fact that by continuing to push the vax that he's complicit in millions of injuries and deaths, and I reach the conclusion that, no, he's not who we all thought he was.

People who really still "believe" in Trump have a variant of TDS. It's a two way street unfortunately.

He was betrayed constantly by people within his administration. The Deep State attacked and tried to destroy him from the minute he announced his candidacy. I don’t believe even Trump realized how deep and vicious and corrupt the swamp was. He performed remarkably well despite the tremendous opposition and attempts to derail him. I think Jeff is wise and is a critical thinker. I value his thoughts and opinions and am grateful he puts out the Coffee & Covid post everyday.

Thoughtful- Not sure what you mean by "Trump rose to wealth and power out of the same CIA/FBI/Mafia incestual pool that all the other perpetrators of Permanent Government USA did." he made all his money and prestige in the private market WELL BEFORE he ever ran for and became President. I want to be clear, I am not sure having Trump back in Office is the best thing for America, as it will enflame the other team into doing far more damage than has already been done over the last 3+ years. Also not yet convinced that he was actually "selected out of office" as you say, but I do not feel like we can entirely blame Trump for his reactions regarding EO, because it was definitely a time that is INCOMPARABLE to anything else in history. Yes we had pandemics earlier in time, but not in a modern age where we had so MANY "EXPERTS" advising what should be done. History may judge differently if this had happened at the beginning of his term, not the end. Perhaps if he had still been in office we could have seen him bow up to the "EXPERTS" and tell them this was IDIOCY. Whether it is Trump or DeSantis, or someone else that is not today identified, America needs a leader that ACTUALLY LOVES AMERICA and does not feel the need to apologize to ANYONE about why we are great. That means that America needs to return to being an EXCELLENT nation again and start telling and demanding truth from others. #TruthMatters

The problem we have now is that we no longer have free elections. Regardless of who is running, until there is a change of some kind, we will never win again.

It’s sad but unfortunately, I think that’s reality. And they know it. Did you see Katy Hobbs laughing while she took her oath of office? And she could barely repeat the words “so help me God”. Utterly disrespectful.

We all share responsibility for all that has happened. In general we have become a Godless, cowardly, effeminate nation. We are the rotten, blind building blocks of the foundation of the nation. In general, we are have become a quivering puddle of jello, who do as we are told.

I gave it some thought, but I have to respectfully disagree with you here. I am NOT responsible for the production, dissemination and cover-up of a worldwide bioweapon attack, nor am I responsible for the murder and lies propounded by the authors of the Plandemic.

Like Jeff Childers, I have FOUGHT this with every ounce of my being at every new imposition and violation of my God-given rights. Some examples:

- I have publicly and repeatedly spoken out against elected leaders in my state who locked us down unconstitutionally, gave money to those who ran against them, and told anyone who would listen to get out and vote for the "freedom-promising" candidate. Thankfully, that candidate won and mandates in my state started falling.

- I have fought against all levels of public education in my state for trying to muzzle and inflict psychological and physical damage upon my children. When courts refused to hear the cases of aggrieved parents, I pulled my children out of public schools and now homeschool. I now counsel and encourage other families to do the same and bleed the rotten public education system dry.

- I have railed against the dangers of Operation Warp Speed (I could care less which politician was in favor/opposed based on the MSM marching orders of the day), having done the research myself on the VAST and HORRIFIC and WELL-DOCUMENTED failures of mRNA experimentation on animals. I told everyone who would listen that it was poison to the immune system and should not be injected at ANY cost. What's a job, or the freedom to travel, or ability to go to your favorite stores or receive medical care from your preferred provider IF YOU'RE DEAD??! Easy choice for me.

- I have refused injections for myself and my family at great costs (family ostracization, loss of freedoms to travel/associate/receive medical care/etc.) and refused to "go along to get along" with those who think just a little death and dismemberment is an acceptable trade for "freedom."

- I have donated my time and significant resources ($$ and legal knowledge) to fighting mandates and the lies being spouted with impunity (until now) by Big Pharma and their Health Association/Hospital/Physician acolytes.

- I have severed my ties with all Big Tech that works contrary to my God-given freedoms (e.g. I fired Google from my life, stopped watching MSM including the vapid and treacherous FoxNews, cancelled Disney and other TV subscriptions that were supporting Woke agendas, stopped buying on Amazon, eliminated all Facebook/Insta/Twitter accounts and encouraged others to do the same)

- I have educated myself about our nation's history and how we got to where we are, why the Medical-Military Industrial Complex has so much money and power to do what they are doing, and focused on steps I can take locally to fight back.

- I have drawn my non-effeminate spiritual-head-of-our-household husband close to make sure we are yoked together in this battle, and we in turn educate our four children about their God-inspired Constitution-based civil liberties, for which they need to be prepared to fight and die to preserve for themselves and their children. We call them to be salt and light in a world that had grown complacent with darkness.

- We have all lost many friends and relationships and sometimes we feel very alone, but Truth is not negotiable and Evil is real. This is the only fight that really matters and we're going to wage it in every small corner of the world over which we wield influence.

I am not a quivering puddle of jello. I do not do as I am told. I am ungovernable.

Thank you for that. Blame, blame, blame. There’s plenty of that to distribute around - including blaming ourselves. God controls all facets of our lives; some just don’t trust Him.

The “saved millions of lives” line—I just can’t stomach that. More like it will END millions of lives. At this point, it’s gotta be willful ignorance on Trump’s part. He’s complicit, and while I love the guy in so many ways and I’m glad for the limited good he was able to do, I’ll not vote for him again. (As long as we have mail-in voting it probably won’t matter who I vote for anyway)

I don’t disagree with you on that. I’m adamantly opposed to the vax and have been since the beginning. It makes me cringe when I hear it. In politics 2 years is an eternity; we don’t know at this point what our options will be. I’m putting my hope and my faith in Almighty God, not any man.

🤣 Todd - your first instinct was correct. Insults without predicates are baseless. And that *is* a typical deflection strategy used by libs (who tend to be emotional and not analytical thinkers). Ips Prez likes to insult people (2nd time today in my case...) but doesn't challenge the ideas I've presented with anything other than name-calling. Oh well... not worth the time to engage.
