The Persecution of Donald J. Trump

by Armando Simón (August 2024)

 

The communists, who have effectively taken over different aspects of the government at the federal level and even on state levels and comprise the Deep State, indicted Trump on bogus charges, essentially with bills of attainder.

They tried to impeach him before he even took office (that’s how much hysterical hatred they have for the man). They were hoping to impeach him on the “Russian collusion” hoax the malevolent Hillary Clinton created, as transparently fraudulent as George W. Bush’s “weapons of mass destruction” excuse for war. Then, they did impeach Trump because … of a phone call.

Then just before leaving office, they impeached him again, the Democrats using falsified evidence.

And, of course, weeks ago, the leftists in the government tried to assassinate him.

Donald Trump had decided to run for president without consulting the ruling elites and against their wishes. The elites were/are arrogant, living in a bubble amongst themselves and did not take him seriously, thinking he was a clown. Worse, he stated facts, facts that were being suppressed by the propaganda outlets of the media hivemind and the Republican collaborators (the Rinos). He was being Politically Incorrect.

Abuse was poured on him, the same that is always thrown at Republican presidential candidates, and presidents, since Goldwater’s 1964 campaign: that he was insane, a buffoon, a Nazi, a racist, a fascist, all the buzzwords that energize leftists into foaming at the mouth.

During the campaign, not only did he give speeches, Trump listened to the concerns of the people who attended, unlike the usual campaign speeches of any other candidate who tell their listeners how wonderful he is.

The best part were the debates with Hillary. Instead of the usual bland, soporific debates he delivered truths and zingers that won over voters, but further alienated liberals.

Ironically, the only one who understood him and his appeal to the voters was Michael Moore, who tried to explain to his fellow leftists that his followers were not racists, not Nazis, but were concerned about their country and whose lives had been shattered by economic policies of Republicans and Democrats (such as NAFTA) which was going to get exponentially worse with the TPP.

Trump won. The liberals went berserk. The last time the Democrats were that angry was when we took away their slaves.

And the propaganda against the man went into white heat overdrive, 24/7.

Now, whereas most politicians who are elected to office have no plans, and once there feel voters should bask on their Wonderfulness, Trump had definite plans to turn around away from the country’s destruction. In spite of all the backstabbing and all the passive aggressive resistance he experienced while in office, he managed to accomplish a lot, though he was unable to finish the wall, thanks to the sabotage from the Swamp’s creatures (think Mitch McConnell). The media hivemind made it a point to ignore his accomplishments. These are just a few:

 

Security 

• He put a hold on Muslim fanatics entering the country until terrorists could be vetted and denied entrance. The leftists went into hysterics over this “racism,” and fought it tooth and nail in the courts, until it was reworded to include potential terrorists from non-Muslim countries. Once in effect, deadly terrorist acts ended, which angered liberals. Ironically, leftist Jews stupidly fought against this ban, much to their regret now.
• When Boeing was taken over by another corporation run by sociopaths, Boeing’s reputation for safety was flushed down the toilet. Airplane crashes occurred in a new series of commercial jets. The head of FAA refused to ground those planes. Trump stepped in and grounded them until the problem was discovered watch the excellent documentary Downfall).
• North Korea seemed to be on the verge of attacking Guam with missiles. Trump made it clear that if that occurred, North Korea would cease to exist. The dictator backed down.
• He forced NATO countries to spend more for their own defense rather than always relying on America to save their ass.
• To the horror of the military-industrial complex, Trump stopped getting America in forever wars.
• In FY 2019, ICE HSI seized 12,466 pounds of opioids including 3,688 pounds of fentanyl, an increase of 35% from FY 2018.
• Seized tens of thousands of kilograms of heroin and thousands of kilograms of fentanyl since 2017.
• The Department of Justice (DOJ) prosecuted more fentanyl traffickers than ever before, dismantled 3,000 drug trafficking organizations, and seized enough fentanyl to kill 105,000 Americans.
• DOJ charged more than 65 defendants collectively responsible for distributing over 45 million opioid pills.
• Brought kingpin designations against traffickers operating in China, India, Mexico, and more who have played a role in the epidemic in America.
• Drug overdose deaths fell nationwide in 2018 for the first time in nearly three decades.
• Indicted major Chinese drug traffickers for distributing fentanyl in the U.S for the first time ever, and convinced China to enact strict regulations to control the production and sale of fentanyl.
• Prohibited the teaching of Critical Race Theory in the Federal government.

 

Conservation 

• Signed the Save Our Seas Act to protect our environment from foreign nations that litter our oceans with debris and developed the first-ever Federal strategic plan to address marine litter.
• Signed the Great American Outdoors Act, securing the single largest investment in America’s National Parks and public lands in history.
• Signed the largest public lands legislation in a decade, designating 1.3 million new acres of wilderness.
• Signed a historic executive order promoting much more active forest management to prevent catastrophic wildfires.
• Opened and expanded access to over 4 million acres of public lands for hunting and fishing.
• Joined the One Trillion Trees Initiative to plant, conserve, and restore trees in America and around the world.
• Took action to protect vulnerable Americans from being exposed to lead and copper in drinking water and finalized a rule protecting children from lead-based paint hazards.
• Invested over $38 billion in clean water infrastructure.
• In 2019, America achieved the largest decline in carbon emissions of any country on earth. Since withdrawing from the Paris Climate Accord, the United States has reduced carbon emissions more than any nation.
• American levels of particulate matter were approximately five times lower than the global average.
• Between 2017 and 2019, the air became 7 percent cleaner—indicated by a steep drop in the combined emissions of criteria pollutants.
• In FY 2019 the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) cleaned up more major pollution sites than any year in nearly two decades.
• The EPA delivered $300 million in Brownfield grants directly to communities most in need, including investment in 118 Opportunity Zones.
• Restored public access to Federal land at Bears’ Ears National Monument and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument.
• Recovered more endangered or threatened species than any other administration in its first term.

 

International

• The first time that a North Korean dictator met with an American president was at the behest of Donald Trump. He was the first president to meet with a leader of North Korea and the first sitting president to cross the demilitarized zone into North Korea. NK’s firing of missiles decreased. Tensions eased.
• He arranged it so that Bahrain, Sudan, United Arab Emirates and Morocco established diplomatic relations with Israel, the Abraham Accords. Leftist American Jews called him an anti-Semite.
• Recognized Jerusalem as the true capital of Israel and quickly moved the American Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem. Leftist American Jews called him an anti-Semite.
• He was nominated twice for the Nobel Peace Prize. Obama received a Nobel Peace Prize just for being black before engaging in war crimes (killing civilians with drones).
• Withdrew from the horrible, one-sided Iran Nuclear Deal and imposed crippling sanctions on the Iranian Regime.
• Conducted vigorous enforcement on all sanctions to bring Iran’s oil exports to zero and deny the regime its principal source of revenue.
• Acknowledged Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights and declared that Israeli settlements in the West Bank are not inconsistent with international law. Leftist American Jews again called him an anti-Semite.
• His Right to Try Act saved many terminally ill patients.

 

Labeling

A picture is worth a thousand words. So are the right words. “Fake news” was given to the media hivemind’s constant lies. That moniker has gone global.

 

China 

• Chinese dictators were shocked that an American president had backbone and would not engage in bootlicking like other American politicians, companies and celebrities. Trump realized that China was a grave threat militarily, diplomatically and especially economically.
• Reached a written, fully-enforceable Phase One trade agreement with China on confronting pirated and counterfeit goods, and the protection of American ideas, trade secrets, patents, and trademarks.
• China agreed to purchase an additional $200 billion worth of United States exports and opened market access for over 4,000 American facilities to exports while all tariffs remained in effect.
• Imposed tariffs on hundreds of billions worth of Chinese goods to protect American jobs and stop China’s abuses under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 and Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974.
• Directed an all-of-government effort to halt and punish efforts by the Communist Party of China to steal and profit from American innovations and intellectual property.
• Authorized $28 billion in aid for farmers who have been subjected to unfair trade practices—fully funded by the tariffs paid by China.
• China lifted its ban on poultry, opened its market to beef, and agreed to purchase at least $80 billion of American agricultural products in the next two years.
• Halted American funding to the World Health Organization to counter its egregious bias towards China that jeopardized the safety of Americans.
• Called on the United Nations to hold China accountable for their handling of the virus, including refusing to be transparent and failing to contain the virus before it spread.
• Established a whole-of-government strategy addressing the threat posed by China’s malign efforts targeting the United States taxpayer-funded research and development ecosystem.
• Signed the Honk Kong Autonomy Act and ended the United States’ preferential treatment with Hong Kong to hold China accountable for its infringement on the autonomy of Hong Kong.
• Now, compare the above with the Biden crime family, who took bribes from China and has allowed China to have police stations inside America.

• The DOW closed above 20,000 for the first time in 2017 and topped 30,000 in 2020 while the S&P 500 and NASDAQ e repeatedly notched record highs (remember, the New York Pravda predicted that the economy would collapse if Trump took office, the same people who think the 1619 Project is history and deserving of a Pulitzer).

Conclusion

And that is why the elites despise him and why millions of Americans idolize Donald Trump, unlike criminals like the Clintons and the Bidens and mediocrities like the Bushes (as Rep. Nancy Mace quipped: “Every time we find evidence of corruption on Joe Biden, Donald Trump gets indicted!”). He delivered. He kept his campaign promises. He protected America and American citizens. And he spoke THAT WHICH MUST NOT BE MENTIONED.

At the end of 2020, just before the electoral fraud, a poll showed him as the most admired man in America.

And that’s why the Communists are still after him. And that’s why they tried to assassinate him. And will try again.

And, as Samuel Mangold-Lenett has pointed out, one of the reasons why the elitists hate him so much is because they hate us, the people, even more. If you do not believe that the elites have hatred and contempt for the ordinary folks, listen to their own words (also true for the international elites). Trump himself has pointed it out: “In the end, they are not coming after me, they‘re coming after you, and I am just standing in their way.”

But he’s basically on his own. Conservatives and libertarians will not react in any physical manner to the persecution but will instead respond the same way as when their own children are turned into homosexuals or transgenders: they will wallow in whining and make angry comments in obscure conservative websites. They will not retaliate.

A far cry from the ancient Greeks who vowed, “I shall fight as long as I live, and I shall not value being alive more than being free.”

What a difference from today’s many cowards.
