While listening to the Rush Limbaugh program, I heard a caller having doubts about Trump, saying that he’s a “puppet” and that he’s become a part of the “swamp”. Let me tell you, I both laughed and got annoyed by the caller’s comments.
 
Let’s look at this from a logical point of view. Today’s date is April 5th, 2017. Trump was inaugurated just over a month ago. How can anyone possibly expect him to be able to accomplish so much in such a short amount of time? Did any of you expect America to have been made great by now? That’s a pipe dream. It would be realistic if the Left wasn’t so adamant about making sure Trump failed.
 
Let’s not forget that Trump faces opposition that bends and breaks rules on a daily basis. Technically speaking, what the judge in Hawaii did in stopping the Muslim ban bill was not within his power. What he did was commit treason, but obviously not many people know this since the mainstream media doesn’t cover it as that. Speaking of the devil, they are part of the reason Trump doesn’t seem to be very successful. Back in the days of Obama, they would consider the president to be successful if he just lifted a pencil. They worshipped Obama, but he’s gone now. Now, they have to cover a man that they despise with all their beings, and as such, they will bitterly negate any success the president has and consider them failures.
 
Furthermore, back to the fact that Trump’s only been president for a little over a month, you have to consider the fact that he’s a true outsider. He has had to learn the way things work within the government, as he has had no previous experience in managing any form of government. As much as he wants to run the country as a business, he can only do so much and go so far with that concept. He’s having to learn to do new things in a vastly new way and he’s only been at it for just over a month.
 
The caller seemed to have been worried about the future of the presidency, but I’m not worried in the least. He’s doing something very few people know how to do: run an entire super power nation. He’s 70 years old. All his life he’s run businesses. He knows how to do that, but now he’s had to learn to run a country. I can’t imagine he ever had to deal with a lower level worker stopping him from venturing in business deals before. For the first time in his life, he’s experiencing the power of political opposition. And he’ll have to learn that in order to Make America Great Again, you have to look at what made America so sucky in the first place: the Democrat Party and its co-conspirators.
 
Rush often says that Trump isn’t an ideologue. And that might be true, but he’ll have to learn quickly that the Left isn’t a force that one can simply reason with.
 
I’m reminded of something that Trump tweeted once on making deals: That the best deals are the ones you walk away from and return to on better terms. The Left by design is not someone you can make a sensible deal with. They can’t stand the idea of losing anything, as evidenced by their constant whining about this latest election. You can’t deal with the Left logically, you have to defeat them at every turn.
 
He needs to recognize that the very people he wishes to make deals with are the very people that very nearly changed this nation into something unrecognizable from its foundation. The Left isn’t looking to make fair deals. They want to make deals that will benefit them entirely and leave little to nothing for Trump.
 
Trump is a brilliant man. He has been successful for much of his life. He’s come back from bankruptcy to become one of the wealthiest people on Earth. Not many people have had such success after declaring bankruptcy. I believe he’ll figure out what he needs to do to fulfill his main campaign promise. God gave him a good brain. And as long as Trump continues to pray and continues to look to God for answers, he will be a successful president.
 
God put Trump in the White House so that he may succeed there. And God will grant him such success as long as he continues to trust in Him and continues doing right by Him.
 
Romans 8:28
“And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.”

You know what the ironic thing is about disrespecting the flag by throwing it on the ground, stomping on it, or setting it ablaze? The fact that that’s the only flag in the world that grants you the right to be that disrespectful. If you do that same thing to a Mexican flag in Mexico, you’re likely to get arrested for it. You do that in any country with that country’s flag, you’re likely to get arrested for it.
 
The fact of the matter is that these “Americans” have no idea what it’s like to live in a socialistic society. Yes, Obama was working towards making America socialist, but he ultimately failed. He failed because the Founding Fathers were smart enough to place restraints on the government with checks and balances and with presidential term limits. Obama could only ever have 8 years of running the country. At least directly. He maybe could’ve had a puppet in the White House, but thankfully that didn’t happen.
 
Now, back to my previous point about Americans having no idea what it’s like to live under absolute socialism. That has its pros and cons. The obvious pros are that no one had to suffer under socialism here in the States, even with Obama. But they also don’t know what others in the world have to suffer through. There are billions of people in this world that don’t know what true freedom is.
 
I’m a foreigner myself. I came to this country when I was in my preteens, so I didn’t experience socialism in anyway except for one: I wasn’t allowed to enter my country of origin (Argentina), say to visit family, and leave without having a little piece of paper that said both parents authorized me leaving the country. Even if I’m with either or both parents. You see, in Argentina, children belong to the government. If you want to do anything with them outside of the country, the government will stop you if you don’t have that “authorization” paper. Now, that’s relatively understandable for say, a five-year-old. But, like I said, I was in my preteens and entering my teenage years. I wasn’t some little kid that didn’t know what was happening. But the government didn’t care. That’s socialism (at least one aspect) for you. The government is the supreme ruler and you must obey everything it says, regardless of how silly its rules are. (Don’t mistake that for following the rule of law in the U.S., mind you).
 
But you see, America was structured the way it was for the sole purpose of keeping things like that from happening. They wanted the government to have as little power as possible while still being able to protect its citizens from harm, both from within and without.
 
“Government’s first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives.” – Ronald Reagan.
 
They wanted the government to be powerful enough to protect its citizens but not so powerful that it can and will run people’s lives. Socialism does the exact opposite. It doesn’t care about protecting its people and most certainly runs their lives.
 
So that’s what’s so ironic about disrespecting the flag: They do that to the very flag that gives them the freedom to do that. And they want a government that will ultimately take away many of their freedoms, including that one. They believe good to be evil and evil to be good. What’s very clearly evil (abortion, transgenderism, sexual lust and immorality) they believe to be good. And what’s clearly good (God, Christ, prayer, worship of God, what the American flag represents) they believe to be evil.
 
The Left has worked well to destroy all things that are good in this country. And they’ve deceived people into believing that the U.S. is the single biggest detriment to the world in its entire history. That’s why there are people that disrespect the flag as they do. They have taught people that socialism, the governmental equivalent to a chokehold, is good, while capitalism, the governmental equivalent to a handshake (as in both parties are equal and free to do business), is evil.
 
But here’s the kicker, while the Left believes it’s succeeding, God is watching and chuckles at the sight of evil believing it will be victorious.
 
Isaiah 5:20
“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.”
