How a demonized Trump came back from 2020
ruin to become 2024 nominee

Original Article

Donald Trump is one of only two Republican three-time presidential nominee in history. That achievement was unthinkable in January 2020. Back then, his personal polls had hit rock bottom after the Jan. 6 Capitol demonstrations. Republicans had just lost two Senate seats to hard leftists in Georgia. With those defeats, an increasingly unpopular Trump was blamed by many Republicans for losing the Senate, along with the House. He was faulted for allowing the Biden-Harris administration to implement the most hard-left agenda in the modern era. Over the subsequent two years, a demonized Trump faced four separate criminal proceedings and a civil suit,

A majority of the American people, what Nixon termed the "silent majority", know that we were robbed in the elections of 2020 and 2016. There is a hot fire burning in the soul of American patriots. That is why Trump rallies fill stadiums with huge overflows. Trump is popular because we know he represents us and we can see the disaster the woke elitists are bringing on our nation. The people are demanding the government that was stolen in 2020.

Excellent summary... but article leaves out the subject of potential cheating in 2024 that has already begun with unchecked voter rolls and millions of printed ballots ready for use when needed.

Agree#1.... folks the professor says that blame President Trump for j6 and 2022 Georgia losses are never Trumpers . His base knows the truth and people like Prof. Hansen do too but are scared to say it. They always dance around the edges just enough to not make waves. Prayerfully I say President Trump will take America back and restore Her to our rightful peaceful place in the world.

Don't know what the Kangaroo Court judge in Manhattan will do with President Trump. And what effect it will have on voters. To me the conviction was a slur on New York City and it's Soros funded DA. It could change everything.

The country was more "ruined" than Donald Trump, and people who support him know it. J6 was and continues to be a lie, and the two seats in GA were stolen just like the presidential election. The country continues to be ruined because of what they are doing to keep US from duly electing President Trump. They know PDT will show, not just tell, the world what they've been doing to bring down America and institute the one world order. We should have paid more attention when daddy Bush told us that's what he was working for. Those darn Bushes.

I don't know if Trump ever came back from demonization since Trump was always demonized by the media and democraps. Trump never had to come back from everyone who votes Republican. In the eyes of true Republicans, Trump was always the front runner in the Republican party.

VDH, as always, on top of his game. I was a DeSantis supporter last year for the exact same reason we're seeing today. My money and support are with Trump, but as sure as night follows day, he's running the same campaign he did in 2020: fighting every day for t the base, and moderates and independents and winnable Democrats be d@mned. Ron DeSantis (best governor and NOT GOPe) absolutely filleted Gavin Newsom with focused attacks that had him crying uncle on the Hannity debate. Of course Democrats will cheat, but unless he changes, our unfocused candidate continues merrily on the way to a repeat of 2020.

Stop with the name calling - okay VDH - tell that to Harris/Waltz and their "weird" attacks on Vance. The entire legacy media is 100% supportive of Harris/Waltz, the Dems/DNC but somehow Trump is the problem? Does anyone her this DeSantis or Haley could have survived the attacks that Trump ensues still to this day? I don't like how Trump mixes/misuses adverbs and adjectives (and his speaking style is unique but at least he doesn't break out in hysterical laughing all the time) but we are not electing a school teacher or history professor to the Presidency. And I like how Trump, unlike Romney, doesn't runaway from his wealth and success. He's not ashamed of his success in the business world or of being a white, heterosexual male.

Mitch McConnell is the reason the senate lost two seats to leftists in Georgia. He repeatedly undercut the republican candidates.

When my twin brother and I were children, we had a magical machine called a Victrola. We were able to put "33" and "45" and "78" records––I never learned what those numbers stood for––on the turntable and place the handle with the needle on each record to listen to the music we loved. But every now and then, the needle, if not perfectly placed, would scratch the record, and that would result in the music being unable to go forward. I remember it once got stuck on Oh What a Beautiful Morning from the musical “Oklahoma,” and all we heard on an endless loop was morning, morning, morning, morning…

The Israeli military said Tuesday that it recovered the bodies of six hostages taken in Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack that started the war in Gaza. The recovery came as the United States, Egypt and Qatar are trying to mediate a cease-fire agreement between Israel and Hamas that would see the release of scores of hostages held by the militant group. The military said in a statement that its forces recovered the bodies in an overnight operation in southern Gaza. It identified the hostages as Yagev Buchshtab, Alexander Dancyg, Avraham Munder, Yoram Metzger, Nadav Popplewell and Haim Perry, without saying when or how they died.

August 6 marked the tenth anniversary of "the Black Day," a day indelible to Iraqi Christians as the start of the unrelenting atrocities to which they were subjected on August 6, 2014, ten years ago. On that day, the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) unleashed a jihadi massacre of unprecedented terror, brutally attacking ancient Christian communities across northern Iraq. Villages were overrun, homes and churches looted and destroyed, and countless lives shattered. Christians were murdered, raped and sold into slavery.

Living in one of the most far-left communities in the United States for the past many decades, I am intimately familiar with the mindset of the left — the liberals, leftists, progressives, or whatever they’re calling themselves today. And as the entire world has witnessed over the past eight years, since the man they used to lionize and admire — and rewarded with a 15-year boffo success Tv show, The Apprentice — descended the escalator in Trump Tower in 2015 and announced his candidacy for the presidency of the United States, a true mass hysteria erupted to denounce,

Kamala Harris was in Pennsylvania on Sunday. We reported earlier on some of her remarks, including a word salad about democracy. Number one, this is a nutty riff that she's done before. But number two, it's hilarious that she, of all people, is talking about "democracy" when the folks who helped to install her shoved the guy who got more than 14 million votes in the primary out of the race. She didn't get one vote in the primary for the top position. So really, they have some nerve talking about "democracy," given what they've done. She's actually the beneficiary of a coup and an "attack" on democracy.

This conflict is a battle for survival not only for Israel but for the region, and ultimately for Europe and the United States. Israel understands the stakes: Iran's belligerency requires an unequivocally committed response from the United States. In that part of the world, wishy-washy means a green light, open season. The consequences are assumed to vary from minimal to non-existent – and often even a profit! Iran has no interest in becoming a sand dune. That is why it has proxies, so that they will do the attacking and take the incoming retaliation, ensuring that their devoted patron, Iran, will not have to. Iran's proxies are its human shields.

With the announcement of the 2025 transition team well in advance, you might note that President Donald Trump is taking a much more aggressive stance on the vetting of potential members of his administration. This is a critical and necessary proactive plan; it should be considered a very good sign. President Trump has appointed Linda McMahon and Howard Lutnick as co-chairs of the transition team. However, President Trump has also appointed JD Vance, Donald Trump Jr and Eric Trump as honorary chairs, likely with veto authority over any staffing recommendation.

The left-wing coalition has clearly been gaining ground. Jean-Luc Mélenchon, the leader of Rebellious France, to emphasize that he accepts anti-Semitism and supports Hamas and Islamism, gave a speech about his party's results while standing on stage next to an Islamist pro-Hamas activist, newly-elected Member of European Parliament Rima Hassan. Hassan wore a keffiyeh and displayed on her clothes a small Palestinian flag.

Remember when the Politico story first hit about the stupid leaking from inside the Trump campaign and I said, “they got nothing.” Politico sat on the story for 19-days while they talked to the leaker and reviewed the information they were sharing. That’s how you know there was nothing in the leaked files from the “Trump insider.” Because if there was anything damaging, it would be 24/7 publishing with hundreds of stories about it. However, with nothing of value coming from the DHS leak to Politico, the Associated Press now spins the story to proclaim the magnanimity of the media for not reporting on “hacked” documents. Too Funny!

Hamas representatives told various media outlets that the provisions U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken discussed with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that day were a “coup against” a previous Hamas-friendly proposal Israel rejected. Blinken was in Israel on Monday to discuss what he called the “last opportunity” for an end to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) ongoing self-defense operations in Gaza, Hamas’s stronghold territory used to launch the unprecedented October 7 attack on the Israeli homeland.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s (D) children were not conceived through in vitro fertilization (IVF), the Harris-Walz campaign confirmed this week. This comes after Walz claimed multiple times that he owes his two children to IVF. According to The New York Times, “many have assumed” that Walz and his wife, Gwen, relied on IVF to conceive. This includes several prominent news outlets that reported that the couple used IVF. In April, the Tim Walz for Governor campaign office mailed out a fundraising letter in an envelope that said, “My wife and I used IVF to start a family,” the Times pointed out.

Joe Biden is easily the worst human being to hold the office of President of the United States of America. The send-off his own party gave him, as ignominious as it was, was still not nearly as ignominious as he deserved. First, Biden was forced out of his reelection campaign, months after he'd "won" the nomination in a rigged primary, by a cabal of insiders including his old boss, Barack Obama. You know, the man who reminded fellow Democrats to "never underestimate Joe's ability to f*** things up." Then his farewell address — angry and disassociated — was bumped out of primetime by an assortment of has-been and never-will-be speakers.

Joe Biden was, on some level, wrapping up his political career during his DNC speech on Monday night. He had expected to give the keynote address on Thursday. That was before the coup, when he was shoved aside and replaced by Kamala Harris as the nominee. So, you can imagine he's not a happy camper when it comes to that. It was perhaps appropriate that the day was a mess with protesters breaching the security fence, attacking the police, and getting arrested. Then, Biden made weird comments about former President Donald Trump, claiming his "stability" was still a question. Um, Joe? It isn't Trump whose stability is in question
