Has Donald Trump reached his sell-by date?

There was a time when watching a Trump speech was enjoyable. It wasn't that the material was that great. It's that he was a great showman. Notice that I'm using the past tense these days. IMO, Trump reached his political sell-by date.

Trump still has a following, though that isn't as stout-hearted as it used to be. This morning, I came across this tweet, which I connected with almost immediately. The part of the tweet that I connected with most said "I attended many rallies and watched almost all the rest. I believe there were voting irregularities in the swing states. I also believe the 2020 election is long OVER and in the history books. Trump’s 'HIRE and FIRE' management style may have worked for him in business but it proved to be a destructive way to run a Presidential administration."

I also strongly agree with Fair Deal Dave when he said "America needs a prolonged state of NORMAL; A new leader who has a tested and proven track record of winning and delivering steady continuously improving results. A leader whose management style is: HIRE - TRAIN - EXECUTE - WIN. That leader is Governor Ron DeSantis." Here's the tweet in its entirety:

There was a time when Trump's jabs hit hard. Whether he called Jeb Bush Low Energy Jeb or he called Marco Rubio Litte Marco, they stuck. These days, when Trump calls Gov. DeSantis Ron DeSanctimonious, the impact is negligible. It's like the kid who was the schoolyard bully in fifth grade but who was bullied when he got into 7th grade because other kids were bigger than him by then. Trump isn't the heavyweight he used to be:

That was from when Trump was a fresh face. Then he got elected president and Trump's ego got the best of him. When Gov. DeSantis highlights the fact that "Trump added $7.8 Trillion to the debt", he prefaced that statement by saying that Trump promised to eliminate the debt.

The truth is that Trump has made so many dishonest statements that people have stopped listening. It's like the little boy who cried wolf too many times. After awhile, people stop paying attention.

David is right. America needs a prolonged state of normal." Trump specializes in chaotic. That way, people don't notice the things he didn't finish that he promised to finish. Think building the Trump Wall and draining the Swamp.

Joe Biden is a feeble-minded old fart. Donald Trump is a high-maintenance spoiled brat who thinks everyone should be loyal to him. Gov. DeSantis is the best governor in the U.S. and he's got the conservative accomplishments and the winning streak to prove it.

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

Image
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue...

What is Kamala Harris afraid of?

Image
Apparently, Kamala Harris suddenly loves debating. Let me rephrase that. Harris loves debating as long as the moderators are partisan hacks. She wants nothing to do with a debate moderated by Fox's Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum. She's afraid of Bret and Martha because a) they'll either fact-check both her and Trump or they won't fact-check either of them and b) Bret and Martha aren't afraid of asking follow-up questions. To a candidate whose answers are scripted and who isn't quick on her feet, the last thing you want is a follow-up question. Kamala fears follow-up questions like vampires hate wooden stakes, sunlight and holy water. Why has Kamala Harris avoided Fox News like the plague? The moderators/propagandists fact-checked Donald Trump aggressively but didn't fact-check Harris . Why didn't David Muir and Linsey Davis fact-check both candidates equally? Is it because Harris doesn't like fair fights? Perhaps she's just afraid of getting exp...

Why is Joe Biden letting Hamas off the hook?

Image
It isn't disputable whether Joe Biden's administration is letting Hamas off the hook. That issue was settled months ago, when a spineless Joe Biden caved to activists interested in saving Hamas and thwarting the Israelis' attempt to defend themselves. Gerard Baker's op-ed highlights what's at stake for the U.S. if the terrorists are permitted to survive. In his op-ed, Baker wrote "If, under the pressure of internal Democratic politics and global public opinion, the Biden administration forces a 'cease-fire' that leaves our closest ally in the region short of victory over an enemy that seeks to destroy it, sooner or later we shall all pay the price." It's time to revisit George W. Bush's speech to a joint session of Congress on Sept. 20, 2001. It's required that we remind ourselves of one of its most important paragraphs. In talking about who committed the atrocities of 9/11, President Bush identified al-Qa'ida as "a collectio...
