Why I Will Always Support Donald Trump
By Robin M. Itzler
How can educated men like former Vice President Mike Pence, former Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson, former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, and former Texas Representative Will Hurd be so stupid? (I am leaving out former Attorney General Bill Barr since he’s busy looking at bridges.) They have spent much of their lives in Republican politics and yet have a minuscule understanding of the largest grassroots Republican movement in modern history that is embraced and endorsed by more than half of Republicans—primarily the “base.”
No Republican can win the nomination without the MAGA base. America First Patriots stand with Donald Trump just as we did in 2016 and 2020. These Republican elitists, along with Marxist Democrats, are suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome and accuse us of being in a cult of personality. What chutzpah! We are proudly in a Cult of Patriotism!
Never Trumpers say we shouldn’t litigate the last election. If a loved one had been murdered in 2020, would they stop trying to find the assailant just because a few years have passed? To many Patriots, America’s cherished election process was murdered in 2020 and the culprit has yet to be arrested and tried in court.
June 16, 2015
When Donald Trump rode down the Trump Tower golden escalator and formally announced his candidacy, he had me and millions of other Patriots at hello. During his 46-minute speech, we knew Trump would win the election. It was just a matter of waiting for everyone else to board the Trump Train.
Throughout the 2016 campaign, month after month, at the Republican club meetings I attended, I put up a poster board with all the announced candidates. Members and guests would initial who they were supporting. My “RI” initials were always under Trump’s photo, where it sat alone for many months.
Heading into the June California primary, the contest that started with 16 candidates was now between Donald Trump and Texas Senator Ted Cruz. By the time voting took place, Trump was the nominee promising to Make America Great Again for America’s forgotten men and women.
Once in office, Trump kept many promises with minimal to no support from his own party. The first two years of a Republican Congress were led by Rep. Paul Ryan (aka Paul RINO). Ryan is now a member of the board of directors at Fox News and the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. A trifecta for Ryan would be joining MSNBC’s board of directors.
Yes, Trump made mistakes with the Communist Chinese COVID virus, in large part because he naively relied on those who insisted they understood “the science.” However, while Trump was diligently working for the American people, RINOs (many in his administration) along with Marxist Democrats were focused on advancing their Deep State tentacles. It was easy to do, thanks to a complacent media filled with “reporters” who suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Election Day Eve 2020
With the Republican National Committee once again failing to prepare, Patriots saw Trump leading in swing states only to have multiple alleged voter fraud incidents change the final results. Fox News joined the leftist media and eagerly called the election for a candidate who once confused his sister with his wife. It would take pages to list all of Joey’s dementia gaffes since his inauguration, which is why Americans see him as old and confused.
Those who believe Joe “Big Guy” Biden got 81 million votes probably also think it’s normal for a grown man to shower with his daughter. Or that Biden interrupted Hunter’s business calls (on speaker, no less) just to discuss the weather.
Here we are today
Three years later, most Republicans still believe the 2020 presidential election was as kosher as a ham sandwich. Polls show that approximately one-third of Americans from all political parties believe Biden fraudulently “won” the election.
As to the indictments (with possibly more to come), it’s obvious that Joe Biden’s handlers fear the ballot box. So, like a banana republic, they get the “Big Guy” to go after his leading political opponent through lawfare. In the process, they are unraveling the foundation on which America was founded. Progressive Dr. Naomi Wolf has said about one of the indictments:
Don’t people understand – much as they may hate this fellow – that this is exactly what coup leaders in every banana republic do? Seek to imprison their political opponents? Especially while the political opponents are on the campaign trail?
Trump supporters are still going to vote for Donald Trump even if a biased jury finds him guilty because he is the only candidate with a proven track record of pushing back at UniParty insanity.
The GOP should be very concerned because in some states (such as California) you cannot write in a candidate in the general election. In other states, write-in candidates are allowed only if the candidate has registered as such before the election. Stalwart Trump supporters writing “Donald Trump” could invalidate their entire ballot including all down ballot Republican races.
The RNC can keep holding debates, but along with millions of Patriot Americans, I want The Donald to win a third time for his second term. No matter how many people stand on the debate stage, Trump is our candidate.
From unveiling Uniparty deep state corruption to creating a robust economy; from Middle East peace through the Abraham Accords to America being respected throughout the world; from energy independence to having a secure border; and everything in between, Patriots like me know that The Donald can Make America Great Again … Again.
Mr. Trump, I’ll be the loudest person applauding when you speak at the California GOP convention on September 29!

Trump's Movement Transcends Politics
By Matt Kane
By now, everybody has heard Donald Trump say: "They're not after me; they're after you. I'm just standing in their way." It is a rallying cry for his supporters and "conspiracy" fuel for his critics. But as is the case in many instances, Trump is right. In fact, "they" have already begun coming after us — which is why the Trump political movement has officially transcended politics. America's fiercest enemy is now those within its own government using Trump's persecutions as a vehicle to covertly violate individual freedoms. The damage they are causing is undeniable, and the Trump movement represents the strongest, most wide-reaching, and most unified effort taking on these threats.
Traditional issues that exist in every election are still present. Immigration, the Second Amendment, the economy, jobs, inflation, taxes, and foreign affairs are still pressing issues. But a new set of challenges that have arisen are so crucial that if they are not addressed, they will make the traditional issues a moot point.
In just the last eight years, numerous attacks on Trump have occurred that were previously thought of as "not possible in America." Because they occurred so frequently, society to an extent became desensitized to their absurdity. Removing names when analyzing these events prevents bias and helps one better objectively comprehend them and understand attacks on Trump are assaults on the decision of citizens by proxy.
In 2016, the Democrat nominee for president concocted a complete fabrication about her Republican opponent colluding with a foreign country to propel him to victory. The sitting Democrat president and vice president were made aware that the allegations were bogus, yet they did not put an end to them, and in some instances, they furthered them. This was a direct attack on the people's right to elect the candidate they desire.
That attack on citizens to remove their chosen leader did not stop when the false collusion scheme failed. After he prevailed to win the presidency, the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives sought to remove the victor by impeaching him for questioning potentially unethical behavior the former Democrat vice president may have participated in with foreign countries. The media were quick to "debunk" the damming allegations against the former vice president and presume the sitting president guilty, but recent revelations proved that the latter's concerns were credible and worth looking into.
Just months after defeating impeachment, the acquitted president was running for re-election against the former vice president. A laptop containing damaging information belonging to the son of the former vice president was left in a repair shop, and its contents were made public. However, government agencies colluded with social media companies to suppress the story and discredit it to prevent the incumbent president's re-election. The media now self-righteously admit that they were wrong, but only because they accomplished their mission by finally subverting the people's will after failing countless times during previous years.
The former vice president is now president, and his actions prove that these attacks on the people's choice have not stopped, as his Department of Justice indicted the former president who is once again running for the presidency. In total, the former president has been indicted four times since leaving office, with one indictment resulting in a mug shot, for questioning the results of an election, something Democrats have done every election they lost since 2000 and were rightly never criminally charged for.
Previously indirect assaults on the people are no longer that, as prosecutors are now attempting to intimidate supporters and allies into submission. The former president's chief of staff and personal attorney were indicted in the Georgia case for pursuing legal, constitutional election challenges. It's also gone beyond publicly known figures associated with Trump, as his longtime butler was indicted in the documents case for allegedly "helping Trump obstruct the investigation." Fittingly, the mainstream media describe these events as "saving democracy."
This is not limited to partisan politics, as some in the former president's own party are attempting to prevent him from appearing on ballots in 2024 based on a fringe legal theory that continues to be dismissed in courts across the country. When those in government openly plot an attempt to prevent citizens from freely choosing whom they want their next president to be, it signals something sinister at play.
In case you need any more evidence that these times are different, plenty of additional damage is being carried out by those currently in power. They forced mass inoculation on the masses and prevented those who opposed it from making a living, paralleling the Bible's Revelation prophecy regarding the mark of the beast. They also promote genital mutilation for minors, advocate for unlimited abortion, and endlessly fund a war that results in death and destruction, while those at the Capitol on January 6 have their homes raided by the FBI, are sentenced to extreme terms in prison, or rot in a cell without a fair and speedy trial as guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment.
If all these events were made into a TV show as opposed to reality, it would likely be described as action-filled but unrealistic. Even those who oppose the Trump movement are becoming aware that it is the only thing capable of stopping this agenda.
Alex Soros, the chair of the board of directors for the globalist Open Societies Foundation and son of George Soros, wrote that his main focus right now is preventing a Trump win in 2024 because a MAGA victory would "undermine the progress achieved in Ukraine," which translates to "Trump's plan to broker a peace deal in lieu of sending endless amounts of money to Ukraine threatens me."
Even Donna Brazile, the former acting chair of the Democrat National Committee, who later resigned from CNN after she was caught sharing debate questions with Trump's opponent, Hillary Clinton, conceded on left-leaning ABC News that she's "never seen anything like this," referring to the Trump movement, citing his rising support after indictments and mugshots.
Trump extended an olive branch by choosing not to investigate Hillary Clinton upon taking office. It was the correct move, as Trump would have been viewed in a tyrannical light for going after a political opponent, since that is precisely how Joe Biden and his weaponized government are now perceived.
But the gloves are now off. So much about the American political system is rooted in precedent, and a precedent has been set that will allow Trump to open investigations into the many troubling actions taken by his predecessors. Another Trump election could bring true generational change to America for the better. He has vowed he would quickly bring down inflation and gas prices, strengthen the economy, secure the border, and reintroduce a strong America on the global stage in just months. But taking on the Deep State is most important now, and he has demonstrated that he understands how vital this task is for America's long-term future by recently urging Republicans in Congress to "fight fire with fire." He also referenced "an eye for an eye" when asked, if re-elected, if he would "lock up" those in government who commit crimes.
Steve Brannon recently said the nation's destiny is tied to Trump. That couldn't be truer. Ironically, the man who built the wall is now the only barrier capable of preventing a communistic style of government from taking control of America forever.

I’m Really Enjoying the Media Panic About Trump
In 2016, the media generally dismissed the idea that Donald Trump had a chance of winning the election. You can’t really blame them, as all the polls said Hillary Clinton was a lock. It was thrilling to watch liberal pundits melt down on air after Trump started winning states they never expected him to win.
This year, the media is already starting to panic that Trump is on the verge of making a triumphant return to the White House.
Two polls in particular have gotten a lot of attention in the past few days: a Wall Street Journal poll showing Trump and Biden tied at 46% and a CNN poll showing Biden losing by a point to Trump and losing to virtually every single Republican opponent—even Chris Christie for crying out loud.
According to the White House, Joe Biden is the most successful president in the history of the nation. They say the economy is strong and that job creation is at historic highs. Heck, they even claim that Biden brought down inflation, something anyone who has bought groceries or gas knows simply isn’t true. The media generally parrots the White House talking points about Joe Biden, so when recent polls started showing that general election matchups between Trump and Biden are in a dead heat, left-wing pundits couldn’t understand it and started freaking out. Meanwhile, I can’t help being reminded of the shock the media experienced on election night in 2016.
“It is kind of shocking in a way, that despite all of the baggage that Donald Trump carries, he’s tied with Joe Biden right now,” ABC’s George Stephanopoulos lamented earlier this week about the recent Wall Street Journal poll. “With every passing month, with every new indictment, Donald Trump seems to be consolidating his control over the Republican Party.”
Related: Joe Biden Is Really Screwed Now
“After the mugshot and four criminal indictments, you would think that President Biden would have [a] significant advantage, but apparently not,” New York Times White House correspondent Peter Baker observed on Saturday.
CNN’s Jim Acosta was similarly shell-shocked by the poll. “I guess we would be remiss if we were to pass over this Wall Street Journal poll, that found even rates between Trump and Joe Biden, 46% for each,” he begrudgingly conceded on Sunday. “The man on the left side of the screen is the President of the United States and the man on the right is former president of the United States with four indictments, and he is still tied with Joe Biden in the poll.”
They would be shocked. Why? Because they live in a liberal bubble and don’t realize that Americans perceive the indictments of Trump as being political. They also don’t seem to understand that Joe Biden isn’t exactly popular.
“If the president goes on to lose reelection to Trump — or any other Republican — the warning signs contained in the CNN poll, which mirrors his troubles in other recent surveys but goes far deeper on reasons for his malaise, will have foreshadowed the story of his downfall,” writes Stephen Collinson at CNN.
Amen to that. Amen.

BRYAN LEIB: Donald Trump Was The Ultimate Peacemaker President
This week, the world will celebrate the three-year anniversary of President Donald J. Trump’s Abraham Accords. On September 15, 2020, President Trump ushered in a new era of peace and collaboration in the Middle East between Israel, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain on the White House South Lawn.
While intelligence community leaders said President Trump’s bold decision to keep his campaign promise and move the United States Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, the eternal capital of Israel, would cause war in the Middle East, just the opposite happened.
Not shockingly, many of these individuals said the same when the framework of the Abraham Accords were initially announced but just as they were wrong before, they were wrong once again. (RELATED: REP. MAX MILLER And BRYAN LEIB: Five Years Ago, Trump Ditched The Iran Deal And Made The World A Safer Place)
Long sought-after peace was achieved in the Middle East through America leading with strength, standing with our allies and without any wars started or bullets fired when the experts said the opposite would happen.
I’ve long held the position and used the analogy that President Trump and his administration provided the metaphorical runway and jet fuel for long-standing relationships between the Israelis, Bahrainis and Emiratis that had been held in the darkness to take off into the light for the world to see.
These long-held relationships being brought into the light have already led to tremendous economic and societal expansions.
So as we approach the three-year anniversary of the signing of these historic peace accords, it’s worth asking the question of why isn’t President Joe Biden expanding on the Abraham Accords?
When President Biden took office in January 2021 he had a prime opportunity to expand the Abraham Accords but unfortunately he did not. The Biden Administration didn’t even acknowledge the Abraham Accords in the first year of the administration and that has created a chilling effect in the Middle East.
The Biden Administration’s decision to realign America’s foreign policy toward appeasement with the Islamic Republic of Iran while largely ignoring America’s closest allies such as Israel, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and others have been a catastrophic mistake.
This mistake has driven the Islamic Republic of Iran closer to Russia and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
In March 2023, the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia agreed to reestablish diplomatic relations and reopen embassies after seven years of tensions. The major diplomatic breakthrough was negotiated by China. I didn’t have that on my 2023 bingo card!
So as this three-year anniversary approaches, I want to take a moment to applaud the courageous leaders President Trump assembled to achieve this historic peace in the Middle East. (RELATED: BRYAN LEIB: Antisemitism Is Thriving In The Democratic Party)
In addition, Jared Kushner, fmr. Ambassador David Friedman, Robert Greenway, Avi Berkowitz, Jason Greenblatt and many others also deserve to be recognized for the leadership roles they played in bringing lasting peace to the Middle East.
Looking forward, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is most likely the next Arab majority country to officially make a peace or normalization agreement with Israel but the chances that the inept Biden Administration will be the broker is slim.
Similar to the Israelis enjoying behind-the-scenes friendships and business relationships with the Emiratis and Bahrainis, the same is true for the Israelis and Saudis. I am confident that the Israelis and Saudis will reach a historic peace/normalization agreement sooner than later.
One thing is for sure — President Trump and his team showed the world that peace is possible in the Middle East and for that, they will go down in the history books as the ultimate peace makers.

Massive Trump vs. Biden Polling Swing From Four Years Ago to Now
I won’t belabor it again here, except to say that the 2020 U.S. general election was highly irregular. I confess it crossed my mind more than once that the election had been stolen. And while I still think that may well be the case, I’ve concluded that it was stolen more via system rigging and interference than it was at the ballot box. The endless abuse of federal authority working hand-in-hand with the complicit media seeded the belief in voters’ minds that President Trump had somehow colluded with Russia to steal the office. This was coupled with the positively criminal interference in the form of suppressing news of Hunter Biden’s laptop, which was jam-packed with documented Biden family crimes and corruption. That despicable, dishonest effort is where the election was stolen more than through the corrupt scattering and harvesting of ballots.
A look at the polling during the run-up to the 2020 election demonstrates this. While a single poll is generally useless, the average of all major polls can be a better indicator of where public sentiment lies. Even more useful is this average over time, as an indicator of trends. And the polling average prior to the 2020 election showed candidate Joe Biden far ahead of President Donald Trump at all times.
At no time in the 14 months before Election Day 2020 was Trump ahead of Biden. Rather, Biden was decisively ahead of Trump, and beyond the margin of error. If you visit Real Clear Politics’ invaluable rolling average of polls from 2019–2020, you’ll see that four years ago — as of Sept. 10, 2019 — Biden led Trump by a cool 10.7 points:
In fact, if you look at the above screenshot, you can see that Biden led decisively in the average of all polls throughout the 2020 election season. On Election Day — Nov. 3 — Biden’s lead in the average of all polls was 7.2 points (51.2% to 44%). That is according to polls of voters before the ballot-harvesting machine did its thing and “midnight magic” created all those bizarre-looking graphs.
Bitter memories, to be sure. But there are signs that the truth is managing to work its way past the Swamp, Big Tech, and fake-news media goalkeepers and reaching the hoi polloi. Check out this year’s Real Clear Politics polling average of the Trump-Biden rematch over the past two months:
On the most recent date available — Sept. 7, 2023 — Trump and Biden are in a statistical dead heat. Separated by less than half a point, Biden averages 44.5% of the vote while Trump stands at 44.1%. Not only that, but the pair are now trading the lead back and forth. This was unheard of four years ago.
That’s a swing of 6.8 points in favor of Trump since this time in the last election cycle. And the more Biden’s family corruption is exposed, the more his weaponized, partisan justice department and its state corollaries overreach in their quest to destroy Trump, the more likely Trump is to pull decisively ahead.
It’s looking more likely than ever that Big Left will swap out Biden for a new candidate at some point before Election Day. And who knows what will happen then?

Trump's big lead: Among nonvoters, many agree with him that elections are rigged
Donald Trump's argument that the 2020 election was rigged has reinforced the views of Americans who are already disenchanted about politics, one factor in their inclination not to cast a vote next year − that is, a vote they would probably cast for him.
An exclusive USA TODAY/Suffolk University Poll of unlikely voters − those who are eligible to vote but say they probably won't − give Trump a lopsided edge over President Joe Biden among Americans who are deeply skeptical of politics and government.
Registered voters who say they aren't likely to go to the polls back Trump over Biden by nearly 20 percentage points, 32%-13%, with 27% supporting a third-party or other candidate. Citizens who are eligible to vote but haven't registered also favor Trump by close to 2-1, 28%-15%; 27% prefer another candidate.
If they participated in the election, Trump's advantage among them is so wide that they could shift the political landscape to his advantage. His standing among unlikely voters is much stronger than in surveys of registered or likely voters, which generally show a presidential race that is effectively tied. The latest realclearpolitics.com average of national polls gives Biden a 1-point edge.

Gaetz threatens vote to boot McCarthy from speakership, demands 'total compliance'
Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz on Tuesday informed House Speaker Kevin McCarthy that he would move forward with a bid to remove him from leadership of the lower chamber unless he fully honored the agreement he made with House conservatives to claim the gavel in January.
"I rise today to serve notice. Mr. Speaker, you are out of compliance with the agreement that allowed you to assume this role," Gaetz declared on the House floor. "The path forward for the House of Representatives is to either bring you into immediate total compliance or remove you, pursuant to a motion to vacate the chair."
McCarthy ultimately managed to secure the role of House speaker after 15 rounds of contentious voting. Conservative lawmakers had opposed him for most of the dispute, but ultimately relented after securing a litany of concessions from the California Republican.
Said lawmakers, however, appear dissatisfied with McCarthy's efforts to honor their deal. In his floor remarks, Gaetz admonished him for not following through with his pledges.
"We have had no vote on term limits or on balanced budgets, as the agreement demanded and required. There’s been no full release of the January 6 tapes, as you promised," Gaetz said. "There’s been insufficient accountability for the Biden crime family, and instead of cutting spending to raise the debt limit, you relied on budgetary gimmicks and rescissions so that you ultimately ended up serving as the valet to underwrite Biden’s debt and advance his spending agenda."
"Mr. Speaker, you boasted in January that we would use the power of the subpoena and the power of the purse. But here we are eight months later and we haven’t even sent the first subpoena to Hunter Biden," he went on, before excoriating McCarthy for supporting new budgetary resolutions that he said would advance Democratic priorities.
"Our leadership right now is asking us to vote for a continuing resolution, a vote for a continuing resolution is a vote to continue the green new deal, a vote to continue inflationary spending, and the most troubling of fashions, a vote for a continuing resolution is a vote to continue the election interference of Jack Smith," Gaetz declared. "September 30 is rapidly approaching and you have not put us in a position to succeed. There is no way to pass all the individual appropriations bills now."
The Florida Republican further opined that McCarthy's call for an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden had been a "rushed" and "rattled" performance, which he deemed a mere "baby step."
"We must move faster," he asserted.
"Mr. Speaker, dust off our written January agreement. You have a copy," Gaetz concluded. "No continuing resolutions, individual spending bills or bust. Votes on balanced budgets and term limits. Subpoenas for Hunter Biden and the members of the Biden family who have been gristing off of this country – grifting off of this country and the impeachment for Joe Biden that he so richly deserves. Do these things or face a motion to vacate the chair."

Sen. John Kennedy reads pornographic novel to Senate witness: 'Disturbing'
by Jeremiah Poff, Education Reporter
September 12, 2023 04:09 PM
Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) shocked congressional witnesses Tuesday when he used his allotted time during a Senate hearing on "book bans" to read aloud an excerpt from two often-challenged books that contain graphic depictions of anal sex.
Kennedy read portions of Genderqueer by Maia Kobabe and All Boys Aren't Blue by George Johnson during a hearing of the Senate Judiciary Committee on "Book Bans: Examining How Censorship Limits Liberty and Literature." The passages the senator read contained graphic and sexually explicit depictions of anal and oral sex between gay characters.
