Today, I’d like to begin with
two questions. To be exact, two personal questions.
If someone thought you were as stupid, would you respect them? There are two simple choices for this question: yes, and no.
The second question is: If yes, and if that person worked for you, would let them continue in your employ? Again, the answers are yes, or no.
This brief survey is a bit more in-depth than at first blush. But we needed to establish parameters for which path this story takes. Let’s begin.
President Donald J. Trump has been in office for a second ride since January 2025. During those eight-and-a-half months, he has taken control of the tiller of government in an attempt to steer our nation back into a course from certain disaster, left by his predecessor.
Correcting our previous out-of-control spending, immigration, ecological, and societal tack, President Trump has used this rare opportunity to give voting Americans for which they voted. Electing him by a large margin, President Trump quickly turned the seemingly schizophrenic Joseph Biden laws and Executive Orders (EO) back into worthless pieces of scrap paper.
Suddenly, America was humming its way back into a prosperous groove to help residents achieve what once was known as “The American Dream.” Rescinding Biden’s EOs, President Trump was able to resuscitate our coal, oil, and gas industries, take inane electric vehicle (EV) mandates off the table, even walk-back restrictive low-flow toilets and shower heads.
America was on its way back. Until Leftist politicians, judges, advocates, and civil servants reared their ugly heads in daily attempts to hamstring President Trump from going “too far” with his Make America Great Again (MAGA) agenda.
Those Leftist politicians, judges, advocates, and civil servants were more than eager to poke anyone wearing a MAGA hat, flying a MAGA flag, or even admitting they voted for Donald Trump, in the eye. Marching en masse across our nation, these naysayers ardently tried to punish Trump voters for merely exercising their right to vote.
Quickly going from zero to one hundred, the civil society scale looked like a rehash of the tumultuous 1960’s. Riots, marches, bullhorns, flag burning, protests, sit-ins, and lootings flashed on cable news shows, while being virtually ignored by the “legacy media.”
Without a Newsmax and Fox News Channel, as well as a smattering of conservative publications, most of these acts of violence and discontent would have gone unnoticed.
Meanwhile, the Trump Administration was busy with the overburdened legal system trying to get the illegal alien invaders out of our nation. Many, but not all, arrived with lofty expectations about receiving freebies in the form of cell phones, housing, medical care, schooling, transportation, and food, and the Biden administration didn’t disappoint.
Of course, being $34 Trillion in debt, didn’t make our floundering nation better with all the generous giveaways by Uncle Joe. Diverting scarce cash to illegal alien invaders and their needs, left hard working Americans short when they, too, could use that money.
Not to worry. The Biden Money Fairies gave away millions of dollars with the hope of handing out billions for repayment of student loans. While a seemingly nice gesture, too many of those recipients were from well-to-do families who could have afforded to repay their own debts.
Alas, it took the election of President Trump in a second term to bring common sense back to an out-of-control society orchestrated by Biden’s More Money Than Brains Club.
One particular effort to regaining sense and sensibility was President Trump’s vision to restore what the Democrats wildly and vocally espoused in both their very public demonstrations, as well as their seemingly countless media appearances regarding Donald Trump: The rule of law.
Without the rule of law, they contended, there is no civil society. That close adhesion to the law brought along “order.” This “law and order” mantra was the foundation for nearly each and every march, protest, thrown Molotov cocktail, broken window, destroyed police vehicle, and beating of innocent non-Antifa victims.
Taking that page out of their playbook, President Trump fully exercised his authority to restore law and order to American streets. And justifiably so.
Police, judges, politicians, and district attorneys alike, are constantly harping against “self-defense” and “self-protection.” The claim is a civilian is not trained and/or equipped to handle situations the way guvment-approved authorities are.
Fully recognizing there are many flaws to this weak concoction of self-importance, guvment authorities continue to insist on calling in “professionals” to handle any and all crime-related matters.
Unfortunately, if the police are called, they are usually late in arriving, if they arrive at all. And if they do arrive, they often explain there’s nothing they can do. Assuming arrests are made if the police do show up, charges will likely be dropped by prosecutors. And so it goes. Alas.
As a result, crime is rampant inasmuch as there are no consequences to actions; crimes go unpunished, thereby proving the theory that ‘anything you subsidize you get more of.’
President Trump noticed this bizarre behavior was rampant in the Democrat-run
District of Columbia (DC), home of The White House, where President Trump currently resides.
An all-out effort to stem the tide of murders, burglaries, car jackings, muggings, and assaults was instituted in DC. After a mere 10-days, car jackings were down more than 80%, while murders during that period were down an astonishing 100%!
But it took the insertion of the National Guard to create optics that gave criminals cause to pause. This astounding reversal of daily mayhem was duly noted by both sides of the political aisle. Republicans applauded this amazing threshold to law and order, while Democrats vowed to oppose any actions taken by the Trump administration to make DC streets safer.
You may want to re-read that last paragraph. I’ll stop writing and wait for you.
While shaking your head in an attempt to digest all this, keep in mind that guvment’s main role is to protect you. In other words, keep you safe. I repeat, keep you safe. But these sleazy politicians are often too busy pandering for votes to get re-elected, to worry about you.
It’s rather fortunate that media whore politicians nation-wide are quickly bellying up to television cameras and microphones for an opportunity to establish their greedy, Leftist, narcissistic motives, exposing themselves for all to see.
Gavin Newsom, California Democrat gubenor, has been mocking President Trump for stopping crime in his state; backing him up is Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass who is equally angry that President Trump’s anti-crime efforts are successful.
Not to be outdone, expressing an interest to help Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson with his city’s crime-run-amok problem, Johnson has signed an emergency executive order of his own to prevent President Trump from placing federal ‘police authority’ help in Chicago.

| Johnson and Pritzker, respectively |
Concurring wholeheartedly is 2028 presidential hopeful JB Pritzker, Democrat gubenor from Illinois. Verbalizing outrage that anyone – especially President Donald Trump – would be unwelcome to send aid, or otherwise help, to his state. It seems as though this weekend’s eight murders were acceptable to Illinois’ civil society and its status quo.
There you have it. President Trump is making an ardent effort to keep you safe, and succeeding. On the other hand, Democrat leaders, and wannabes, are fighting tooth and nail against your protection and keeping you away from danger.
Thinking back on the two original questions that opened this essay:
If someone thought you were stupid, would you respect them?
These, and other self-anointed politicians think you’re stupid, largely because they were elected into office by you or people like you, expecting to be re-elected by fools like you.
Keep in mind that those politicians WORK FOR YOU. And since they don’t respect you or are concerned for your safety, do you really want to keep them in your employ?
It seems as though it is time to fire these arrogant clowns.
