Donald Trump the Elder Statesman Has Entered the Chat

This has certainly been a festive week for a political party that was in need of some uplifting moments. The Biden years have been a bit of a slog after all, haven’t they?

Anyone who has been hanging around and reading my stuff for a while knows that I have a history complaints about how the Republican National Committee functions. I’ve got 40 years of “Really?!?!?” responses under my belt. I’m just providing some perspective to give you context for this assessment of mine:

Even the hiccups were good at this convention. We were having a lot of fun live-blogging again last night, and you can relive all of that here. In addition to that, my colleagues were blogging the heck out of the evening’s festivities.

While I thought that the previous night was slicker in terms of production value (which is important), there were some great moments during the finale. School choice and an overhaul of public education — a winning issue for Republicans — made it to the stage, which our resident teacher Ashley wrote about.

Chris covered pro-wrestling icon Hulk Hogan’s appearance, which was both surreal and amazing.

The main event, though, was Donald Trump’s third consecutive acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention. It was a truly historic moment, given that there haven’t been many one-term presidents who came back to try and win again, and it’s been 132 years since Grover Cleveland pulled it off. (Side note: the first school I went to was Grover Cleveland Elementary in San Diego, which is where the tragic shooting that inspired the Boomtown Rats’ song “I Don’t Like Mondays” occurred.)

I’ve been saying for a month or so now that I’m really impressed with the way that Trump has been conducting himself in this campaign. Yes, I was a fan before, but he’s really been hitting all the right notes this year, especially given the pressure of the the Democrats’ un-American lawfare assault on him.

The Donald J. Trump who took the stage in Milwaukee last night was a reflective, determined elder statesman and it was glorious. This is what my ultra mega super MAGA friend Kevin wrote about it:

Trump took to the stage with a bandage covering the wound left by the would-be assassin’s bullet. He kicked off his mesmerizing speech by thanking the GOP for the nomination and promising to stand for all Americans, stating: “We rise together or we fall apart.”

Trump’s speech was unlike any of his others. It lacked the bombast and sarcasm of earlier speeches, which I find entertaining. Instead, it focused on unity.

Trump’s sotto voce, conversational tone was perfect, and a counter to the angry maniac that the commies in the mainstream media like to portray him as. He was the adult in the room at a time when the Republic desperately needs that.

Have to thank the city of Milwaukee for allowing the RNC to monopolize downtown.

When Trump spoke to a packed house at the Fiserv Forum, he didn’t go on for too long CNN, Trump was doing what CNN hasn’t done in over two decades: given them their monies worth.

The RNC was a raging success from a logistical level.

It actually answered the most important call in RNC history: safety.

The Attempted Assassination of Donald Trump took place on July 13th.

4 days later the biggest event of the political year is scheduled to begin.

It’s hard for normies to fathom the scope of these two events and their time frames.

Were there scares? Yes. Was there a killing outside the perimeter? Unrelated to the RNC? Yes. But the fact of the matter is, the perimeter was secure. Our President was targeted for death and four days later called for peace.

Because MAGA World Peace is not just a catchy thing to say, it’s a way of life.

He gave every loyal Patriot who spent four days celebrating the life of Donald Trump and the party he put on his back, transformed and brought back from the dead with Undertaker like powers to what we saw over the last four days.

He honored the fallen. He pardoned his enemies and called them brothers!

This is the mark of a leader. This is the mark of a President. Someone who cares about every single person in the city of Wisconsin who has to make a sacrifice so that the safety of the Republic was secure.

Thousands of people had to literally walk the extra mile this week to celebrate their President. Peacefully

Patriotically.

In the wake of tragedy and maddening provocation.

And not a single person inside the zone was hurt.

Excerpt for maybe Jake Tapper.

He was hurt bad.

To the bodega workers losing money because you were on the edge of the zone construction (which took months to secure) to the Uber drivers literally going out of their way, to every law enforcement official that protected us thank you. To the real people of Milwaukee and all across Wisconsin and the rest of the United States who made the journey to support Donald Trump. And finally, to my love Tanya Tay who brought the kids to this historic event and took care of them all week, thank you.

MAGA will persevere – together.

We now begin the process of government reformation. A return to a Constitutional constrained government that only does what is enumerated in the Constitution. No more that the document allows.

I kept flipping back and forth to CNN and MSNBC and, while Fox covered the speeches and gave commentary, the others simply provided commentary over the speeches. They even cut to commercial during them. While they appeared to have presented Trump’s speech in full, they love to censor the speeches and then tell us what they said.

The first day of the convention that Trump was at he looked pained.
There were times the camera fell on him that he was suppressing a grimmace.
His tone, on the last day was subdued but it looked like the worst pain from the ear damage was over.
I thought it was a great speech and was astounded by the panning it got from lefty media.
Only if you hadn’t seen it could you believe a word they said about it.

No doubt, Trump is capable of fighting through any pain in order to present himself as the leader we need. Robin Ware/Robert L. Peters/JRB Ware/Pedo Peter/idiot Biden cannot even manage a steady gait up the AF1 short stairs.

Democrats are simply getting more and more desperate and frantic. That means they, and their van der Luube’s, are getting more dangerous. I hope Trump can somehow supplement his security detail with serious professionals. I just heard that Cheatle had rated Trump’s appearance as a low-level security event… even though there is an Iranian assassination threat out there. Regardless of how they would enjoy watching Trump killed, do they not realize the propaganda coup and terrorist recruiting boon a successful attempt on Trump would be? Probably not because, at their core, they are absolutely stupid.
