The Ground has Shifted and the Democrats Face their Past

I am writing this post on the morning of the opening day of the Republican National Convention.  Following the recent assassination attempt on Trump, this day and the next few will be on overload with political news stories.  Just this morning, Judge Cannon has dismissed the records case against Trump based on Jack Smith’s ineligibility to serve as prosecutor.  It has been reported that Trump will announce his Vice Presidential candidate today.  It appears that the Democrat Party’s bid to remove Biden from the ticket has lost a lot of steam and recent developments have certainly impeded that effort’s momentum.

 

All things considered, it clearly appears…at least for this moment…that Donald Trump and the Republican Party are leading charmed lives.  By God’s grace, Trump escaped an attempt to kill him.  Biden continues to circle the drain as a pathetic incumbent president who refuses to go quietly into the night.  On the heels of Trump’s debate victory and Biden’s poor performances, both in the debate and his subsequent interviews/press conferences/public announcements, it certainly seems like Trump is destined for the White House and the Republicans are heading into what might develop as a Red Wave election in November. 

 

There are less than four months until we hold that election, but things can certainly change in a New York minute.  I want to now focus on the events leading up to the Republican Convention and will cover that business in my next post.

 

The attempt to assassinate Donald Trump has changed the landscape of America’s political environment.  Many questions remain unanswered, but many other things have become crystallized with the occurrence of this event.

Both national political parties have been grossly irresponsible with their inflammatory rhetoric ever since Trump descended those stairs at Trump Towers and entered the political arena.  But any reasonable person should be able to clearly see that the venom flowing from Democrats…including their leader President Biden…has been at a much higher level and far more vitriolic than that of the Republicans.

Where does the presidential race stand today and how will these recent events impact it in the coming weeks?

How sure can we be that Joe Biden will in fact be the Democrat Party presidential nominee?

The mainstream media…oh yes, that bunch of hypocritical, incompetent, and irresponsible biased political hacks…

Are we on the verge of seeing the great Lawfare Assault on Donald Trump crumble to the ground?  That might very well be the case.  The Bragg case conviction in New York has become a joke and a liability for the Democrats; it is simply lying there waiting to be overturned on appeal.  The Florida Mar-a-Lago case has now been dismissed and that fact, along with the recent SCOTUS decision on presidential immunity, will likely sink the Jan 6 case against Trump.  That leaves the Atlanta case, and that one seems to be competing with the Bragg case for Legal Clown Show of the Year.  How sweet is it to see all this bullshit explode in the faces of Joe Biden, his corrupt Administration, and the partisan mainstream media?

Donald Trump and the Republicans must keep the focus on Joe Biden and how his Administration of incompetent fools and associated allies are running this government.  THAT is the argument that should tilt this election.

Under any standard you might wish to employ, the Biden Administration has literally destroyed the American economy.  Any cherry-picking, simpleton claims to the contrary are pure nonsense.

I will insert at this point the fact the Republicans also share in the shameful handling of this nation’s budgetary and debt crisis.  Both national parties are spineless cowards when confronted with a serious discussion of these subjects along with essential entitlement reform.

Two quick notes to close out this post…

 

If the Republican Party is serious about taking control of this government and guiding this nation back to a solid, constitutional foundation, then they must put a humbled and serious Donald Trump in the White House and find a younger and competent replacement for McConnell in the Senate to work with the promising young House Speaker Mike Johnson: https://www.nationalreview.com/2024/07/mike-johnsons-strong-case-for-american-strength/

 

And no matter how promising current events are for a good Republican election outcome, it would be the largest possible misjudgment to believe that this election is over and that the Democrats won’t do absolutely everything possible to hang onto the White House, their Senate majority, and their deep state presence in our government: https://thefederalist.com/2024/07/10/theres-only-one-reason-democrats-oppose-requiring-proof-of-citizenship-to-vote/
