Trump’s miracle will be America’s salvation | Opinion

All President Trump wants is to Make America Great Again. He has been impeached, indicted, arrested, mugshotted, mistreated, spied on, loafed, framed, slandered, attacked, censored, fined, gagged, harassed, and now shot.

Never before in American history has a man been targeted by such evil, relentless forces of injustice. What is it about Trump that has created so many vicious enemies, both inside and outside of government, who seek his destruction, even his death?

From the moment he first announced his candidacy for the presidency in June 2015, Trump antagonized the ruling class by doing one thing: championing and defending the forgotten men and women who had long been ignored as leaders of both parties acquired wealth and power at the expense of their people. That ruling class was steeped in a very dirty system that rewarded the corrupt and cheated average Americans whose lives, livelihoods and communities had been devastated by a vile one-party globalism. Nobody cared about their economic instability. Nobody cared about the destruction of American manufacturing, cities and towns. Nobody cared about the destruction of the America they so dearly loved. Nobody cared that they were mourning its loss. Nobody cared about their despair. they.

Until Trump.

The blue-collar billionaire looked them straight in the eye and delivered the most powerful message imaginable: “I see you, I hear you, and I will be your advocate.”

While politics was foreign to Trump, that was not the case for the American people: the Queens native who built an empire always embodied the American dream and wanted every American to have that opportunity.

When he took office, he delivered on those promises: a revitalized economy, a stronger border, curbing illegal immigration, reviving manufacturing, fairer trade deals, law and order, bringing our soldiers home and a restored military, allies held accountable, enemies warned or neutralized, no new wars, and a framework for lasting peace through strength.

Given this stellar track record, I would like to paraphrase Mona Lisa Vito’s line from My Cousin Vinny to all Trump critics: “So what’s your problem?”

Their problem is that their phenomenal success poses an existential threat to the corrupt ruling class. Trump has used his spectacular success to expose a dangerous truth: rather than fixing America’s problems, they are intentionally making them worse in order to expand their own power. Trump has given power back to the people, as the Founding Fathers intended, but in the process has exposed them all as the corrupt little liars they are.

The regime’s operatives could not stand this, for fear of losing their iron grip on power and profit. So they rallied to destroy Trump in 2015 and haven’t stopped since. To them, Trump’s return to the White House was never going to happen after everything they threw at him: the Russia investigation, the two bogus impeachments, the proven fraud in the 2020 election, the constant stream of misinformation and lies, and the amplification of inflammatory and violent rhetoric by the security state, law enforcement, media, and big tech companies.

During Watergate, President Nixon’s opponents argued that he created an environment where burglary was a logical act. By that logic, the left created an environment where assassination attempts were desired and expected. Whether President Biden was demonizing Trump’s voters by calling him a “dictator” and a “threat to democracy,” or whether the left’s minions were dehumanizing Trump with “Hitler” analogies and calling for harm or worse from him, their words made their intentions clear. They hoped someone would hear their evil pleas and act, and someone did. They all participated in the unthinkable violence that killed one spectator, seriously injured two more, and nearly toppled the president.

These are the same people who are falsely claiming that President Trump’s call for “peaceful and patriotic” protests on January 6th somehow incited insurrection.

As if.

This horrific act shows their desperation. They cannot believe that Trump is still standing, let alone succeeding and likely becoming the next president. This attack on his life was designed not just to stop him forever, but to stop the America First movement and the restoration of this country to its Judeo-Christian foundations.

The shooter’s failure looks like divine intervention. Perhaps the Almighty has not yet taken His hands off the country.

The forces opposed to Trump, his America First policies, and those who support them are dark, vile, and relentless. They have shown they will stop at nothing to prevent Trump’s return and the inevitable consequences it will bring. We must remain vigilant and work to re-elect Trump and elect America First candidates across the country. It is too late. We have very little time left to save our country before it is permanently engulfed by the tide of tyranny.

Immediately after being shot, Trump, with blood coming from his ears, raised his fist, stood up and called on the crowd to “Fight! Fight! Fight!” This clarion call will go down in history and symbolize the grit, courage, determination and spirit of Trump and America. Elon Musk posted on X, “The last time America had a tough candidate was Theodore Roosevelt.” Roosevelt was shot in the chest during a speech and continued speaking. “It takes more force than that to kill a bull moose,” Roosevelt joked.

Trump is our Bull Moose, a man of extraordinary strength and courage who has literally taken bullets for us. As he has said many times, “They’re not after me. They’re after you. I’m just getting in the way.” And he is absolutely right.

After the horrific events of last weekend, Trump’s legend grows, and with it the light of the nation and its chances for a much-needed renewal.
