Why We Love Donald Trump
Copyright 2018, V.I. Steele
O n Tuesday November 6, 2018 election day, we the American people have an opportunity to give President Donald J. Trump a decisive mandate by ensuring overwhelming control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate to the Republican Party, which to its credit over the last two years has increasingly been evolving into the Peoples Party...which is to say The Party of Trump. Now, WE THE PEOPLE must give President Trump a decisive mandate!
Maligned by Establishment politicians and a dis-honest media, Donald J. Trump continues to speak truth to power for the American people. From illegal immigrants, to Americas bankrupt foreign policy; from the threat of Radical Islamic Terrorism, to the rigged economic and political system, Donald Trump fearlessly tells it like it is to the failed elites who have misgoverned America. Donald Trump is the transformational leader the American people have been waiting for to bring America back from the violence, economic despair, and hopelessness created by the Political Class and their Media Lackeys.
The Establishment Media and the Political Class in this country insult tens of millions of Americans who support Donald Trump when they call us racists, bigots, uncouth, and uneducated. Trump supporters are of every race, creed, ethnic background, educational level, sexual orientation, and economic status. What we are, and this is where they have it exactly right, is ANGRY. We are angry at the complete and utter mess the Political Class, both Democrats and Republicans have made of this once great country. We have had it with the special interests who serve everyone and everything but us! We have had it with Political Correctness.
We want a pragmatist not an ideologue in the White House. We want someone who will get things done. That person is Donald J. Trump. We want someone who will robustly defend the Homeland, fix our crumbling infrastructure, provide for robust national security, secure the border, quit coddling illegal immigrants, restore law and order to the streets and the Board Room, and restore American jobs by insuring a level playing field...no more tolerating one sided trade deals and currency manipulation that serve the multi-national corporations and screw the American worker. That person is Donald J. Trump.
Is this really too much to ask for? Isnt the first and most basic duty of any government, to provide for the security and wellbeing of its citizens? Who is the country for after all, the special interests, the illegal immigrants, the crony capitalists? We dont think so, and neither does Donald Trump. The man and the moment have met. Donald Trump is the transformational leader we have been waiting for, the only person on the American political stage with the strength, authenticity, and ability to once again unleash the greatness of America. He is the messenger of the American people, and we are with him!
Amazingly, unlike most careerist professional politicians, Donald Trump the outsider is actually trying to keep the campaign promises he made. Naively, in the view of the Political Class and their Media Lackeys, Trump ACTUALLY believes what he says. What a concept. Tell the people what you really stand for and then try to deliver. And how he has delivered!
W E LOVE DONALD TRUMP ! Here are the reasons why.
Promises Made, Promises Kept: The Destruction of ISIS
D onald Trump is strong . The American people want someone strong to lead the country. Donald Trump famously said, The United States has become a whipping post for the rest of the world. The world is treating us without respect... America today is missing quality leadership, and foreign countries have quickly realized this. Its for this reason that the United States is becoming the laughingstock of the world... I deal with people from China, I deal with people from Mexico. They cannot believe what theyre getting away with. Ive said on numerous occasions that countries like China, like India, South Korea, Mexico, and the OPEC nations view our leaders as weak and ineffective and have repeatedly taken advantage of them to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars a year. (End Note 1)
Compare Trumps strength to the weak, dithering, and totally ineffective Barack Obama. Obama damaged U.S. credibility by drawing a red line against Syrias use of chemical weapons and then failing to back it up his own pledge when Syria crossed the line. Obamas own former Secretary of Defense, Leon Panetta, called this disastrous. According to Panetta, Obama, sent a mixed message, not only to Assad, not only to the Syrians, but [also] to the world. And that is something you do not want to establish in the world, an issue with regard to the credibility of the United States to stand by what we say were gonna do. (End Note 2)
After Obama skulked away from his own red line in 2012, the Syrian civil war dragged on, helping give rise to the terrorist army known as ISIS. ISIS had total contempt for Obama and vowed, 'Know, oh Obama, that we will reach America. Know also that we will cut off your head in the White House and transform America into a Muslim province. ISIS inspired attacks on the Homeland, and still Obama dithered, spending his time on the golf course and in meaningless ceremonial duties. (End Note 3)
What did Donald Trump do about ISIS? He hit them hard and brought them to their knees. Trump said he would find fighting generals who would get the job done without excuses. I will find the General Patton or I will find General MacArthur. I will find the right guy. I will find the guy that's going to take that military and make it really work. (End Note 4) He did.
Trump loosened the rules of engagement to allow commanders in the field more authority in day-to-day decisions about fighting the enemy. Today, less than two years into the first Trump Administration, ISIS has lost ninety eight percent of the territory it once held. These massive gains came after years of ineffectual micro-management of the war out of the Obama White House. Retired Air Force Lt. Gen. David Deptula, the former head of U.S. Air Force intelligence, puts it this way: The rules of engagement under the Obama administration were onerous. I mean what are we doing having individual target determination being conducted in the White House, which in some cases adds weeks and weeks. The limitations that were put on actually resulted in greater civilian casualties. Recent intelligence assessments say fewer than 1,000 ISIS fighters now remain in Iraq and Syria, down from nearly 45,000 during the Obama Administration. (End Note: 5)
