(May 5, 2025) — President Trump has hit the ground running since January 20, realizing he has limited time to push the Boulder of American RuinationTM over the mountain and permanently sink it into the sea to save America. He is intent on not becoming a Sisyphus eternally crushed and unable to reach his goal. Tick-tock. Time is President Trump’s biggest enemy, even more than the Democratic “Progressive” opposition. The strategy of the Democratic Party and the unconstitutional actions of the District judges is to slow him down and run out the clock where 20 million Illegals will be counted in the 2030 census and later get the right to vote Democrat. Their main weapons are fearmongering and spreading outright lies with the MSM as their willing partners.
Let’s look at a few of America’s triumphs in President Trump’s first 100 days. The majority of Americans are overjoyed at his courage in doing what he promised and America is finally turning the corner, but it will be a slow process due to decades of corruption and do-nothing politicians.
Illegal immigration cessation is the biggie. Illegal alien incursions into the United States have dropped 94%. There are now military border zones allowing military personnel to arrest the invaders. Murdering, raping, drug running criminal terrorists such as MS-13 and Tren de Aragua have been sent to El Salvador for haircuts. Sanctuary cities, which are completely un-American, are losing Federal funding. The days of Illegals staying for free in luxury hotels with government-supplied food, i-Phones, healthcare and education are over. They must all head to Canada, Mexico or home, and please take Dementia Joe in tow.
Tariffs are the method to force China to play fair in the world. They have been gaming the system since they entered the WTO in 2001. We have been unwittingly seduced by the horrors of slave labor in exchange for “inexpensive” Chinese goods for decades. This trade imbalance exploited by the Chinese Communist Party has funded an explosion in the growth of the Chinese military which will eventually be used against America. Sleepy Americans don’t realize that the gadgets in their pockets to which they are addicted have chips manufactured in about-to-be-invaded Taiwan. China is slowly reacting to the tariffs in positive ways but in a way for them to “save face,” which is imperative to Chinese culture. Currently there are 70 countries negotiating with the President for fair tariff deals.
The stock market has fallen as it always does as part of its repetitive cycle. This is perhaps the greatest buy opportunity in a long time for retail investors. The stock market is recovering and anyone with a horizon of three years will probably benefit. The recovery will be fueled by the $5+ trillion investments by foreign and domestic companies for the reindustrialization of America. For example, Apple will invest $500 billion in America over the next four years.
Anyone who is familiar with the Laffer Curve knows that increased taxation past a point actually reduces tax revenues. Lowering taxes increases tax revenue. President Trump knows that Congress must lower taxes while keeping the 2017 tax reductions permanent as the path for economic growth for the private sector as well as individuals.
DOGE must be made into a verb in the English language thanks to the President and Elon Musk. For that matter, maybe Elon Musk should be made into a national holiday. All that DOGE does is expose inefficiencies and worse, corruption, in the way that the Federal government wastes taxpayers’ money. Who could be against that except for those on the take?
President Trump is standing up and fighting the very cancer that is literally destroying the concept of America. DEI is nothing but disguised racism, sexism and this-and-that -isms. Equity is the banner of Stalinism which destroys the human spirit. Why work hard when you can get it for free if one is a member of a “protected class”? No reason to work at all if you are not a member. This is Communism at its finest.
Trump is actively involved in preventing wars while getting Ukraine and Russia to negotiate. He achieved a master stroke in getting Ukraine to sign a deal allowing America access to rare minerals. This is important because there will now be American companies and workers in Ukraine, not soldiers, and this will cause Putin to cease new attacks on Ukraine and come to the negotiation table. Russia attacked Ukraine only because of the weak leadership of Obama and his demented boy, Biden.
America has renewed its long-term friendship with Israel which is the brightest spot in the Mideast. The barbarians known as Hamas must depart for their Paradise as soon as possible. President Trump is doing his best to return our hostages. It is likely that the great Abraham Accords will resume as the Arab States finally realize that Israel is an ally against the monstrosity of their common enemies, Iranian mullahs as well as the terrorist Houthis.
The military is enjoying the best recruitment in all branches of the service since Donald Trump became the Commander-in-Chief. Falsely discharged military personnel for refusing the Clot Shot are being invited to return with back pay. There is a new pride and spirit which turns individuals into citizens proud of themselves and our Country. Hoo-rah!
Did this article mention the resurgence of oil and energy production? Russia and Iran can’t afford to finance wars and terrorism with cheap oil. America will once again become the world’s energy supplier if they don’t watch their step.
Invoke the Tenth Amendment and abolish the Department of Education which hobbled our youth and only helped the Teachers’ Unions during the Covid-19 oppression of the American People. Education must revert back to the States.
These are just a few of the highlights, and we have many more 100 days coming in the Trump administration.
This is why most Americans voted for Trump to become President. To summarize the Democratic Party response is simply that they are way past due for a diaper change. They stink.
“The Democratic Party response is simply that they are way past due for a diaper change. They stink.” The Dem Party likes their own stink. They seem to take a laxative every day. It’s one dump after another.
Great article
