It’s August 27, do you know who your president is?
President Trump stopped at Arlington National Cemetery on Monday morning to show his respect for the 13 military members who died during Joe Bidens and Kamala Harris’ botched exit from Afghanistan. Trump attended the solemn ceremony with Gold Star families who are still battling grief after their loved ones died needlessly at Abbey Gate in Kabul.
In a normal world, the ceremony at Arlington would be attended by the President or the Vice President, but Joe Biden, having been exiled by his party a month ago, is on another extended vacation—which is why people like Jake Sullivan and Antony Blinken are running the country. Kamala Harris, the one installed to take Joe’s place on the ballot, is also not appearing in public—at least not long enough to answer too many questions. Her team has put her into a self-imposed exile to minimize the chance she will screw up this free political lunch.
So is the world of the Biden-Harris Administration. No one was ever held accountable for that massive failure in Afghanistan or anywhere else—not in foreign policy and not here at home.
That failure showed incredible American weakness on the world stage and ultimately led to the wars in Ukraine and the spreading regional war in the Middle East.
American weakness leads to a dangerous world where our enemies are emboldened to take their chances and try things they would have never considered when Donald Trump was in office.
From the solemn ceremony in Virginia, President Trump headed west to Detroit and addressed the National Guard Association Conference where he was warmly welcomed by those who serve this country with distinction.
Fresh off the huge announcement from Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Friday that he was suspending his campaign—saying that the Democrats are no longer the party of peace, prosperity, working people, and free speech.
The Democrats are the party of war, big pharma, big tech, big government, big donors, censorship, and corruption. It may all come under the banner of corruption—and it extends through the party and throughout the compliant and dangerous corporate media complex, which is nothing more than the PR wing of the Democrat Party today.
So dishonest are they, that they have gone from demanding Kamala Harris’ replacement as Joe Biden’s running mate, to now comparing her to Washington and Lincoln—it is hard to stomach.
But RFK is not alone in rejecting the failing policies of the elite who have taken over the Democrat Party and decided for the second election in a row to hide their candidate out of fear and sheer embarrassment. On Monday, Tulsi Gabbard, another Democrat candidate for president, joined the Trump Team in Detroit.
Democrats say RFK Jr and Tulsi Gabbard endorsing Trump is silly and doesn’t mean a thing—but that’s not true.
I would agree that in a normal year, endorsements are not that important and rarely move the needle, but Kennedy was pulling as much as 10% in some polls. His joining Trump for a Unity Party could mean a one or two point swing to Donald Trump—we will have to wait and see. I will be watching Rasmussen and others for an indication of a new trend line—the other major polls have basically gone silent, and there is a reason for that. The numbers are not great for Kamala Harris no matter what they are trying to sell you on the nightly news.
Tulsi was not the only big endorsement in Detroit for President Trump. No, former mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, another man who remains popular with black voters despite very serious legal troubles, has also announced that he is dumping the Democrat Party and supporting Donald Trump for president—this could mean swinging the critical black vote in Detroit.
You cannot get on social media without finding new Democrats every day who are saying, “This is not the party I signed up for or remember.”
