When we look at the Democrat presidential candidates....we see do we not....total and absolute blindness as to the Roman Empire style barbarian takeover of America? There apparently is not a one of them who is not willing to just give the nation away.....and do it with a smile. So....let's go back to the 2016 election. We had to get rid of Jezebel.....at least Christians had to get rid of Jezebel.....Trump won and we all celebrated.....but as God would have it.....the defeat of Hillary and Pelosi literally turned the Democrat Party over to the children of the 'village of the damned'.....and to make matters worse we got the real Jezebel in Ivanka! All of this is not to say that Hilary should have won.....nope.....she's as corrupt as she ever was.....it's a message to us....at least to Christians.....Donald Trump is a judgment....and just the latest. Christ is our only hope. It's the pulpit not the podium....but our pulpits have also consistently let us down.
It's not an anti-Trump book....and to some it will be considered a pro-Trump book. The authors....Allen Salkin and Aaron Short interviewed over 100 people...."close to the president".....and built their "objective nonpartisan oral history" around these taped conversations. The purpose of the authors is to show that Donald Trump did not stumble into the White House but brilliantly planned it all out for many years. The book begins in the 1990s during the Ross Perot challenge.....and takes the reader through the almost-campaigns for president....through the Reform Party episode....and through the years of The Apprentice.....and the almost-campaign for governor of New York....right up to....(and ends with)....the walk down the escalator at Trump Tower at 11:00 a.m. on June 16, 2015....it ends there! The book is valuable.....connects a lot of dots.....and slightly changed my view in a few ways. The Method To The Madness....Donald Trump's Ascent as Told by Those Who Were Hired, Fired, Inspired-and Inaugurated was released this past Tuesday. The book is constructed solely around the words of those interviewed....with short chapter descriptions by the authors.
"Alarm: if you at all can find a way to listen to Rush Limbaugh's show today on tape beginning about 12:45.....please try to do so.....and see what we have become....or at least wait a few hours and read the transcripts at rushlimbaugh.com."
Update: I posted the above the moment that a conversation that Rush had with a caller ended. The transcript under the heading...."Callers react to the behavior of U. S. soccer team"....was available through yesterday for those not subscribers to Rush 24/7. Now that it's not available....I'll describe what concerned me.....but admittedly would be absolutely nothing to most listeners. The content of the conversation was on the personal appearance of the women's soccer team members. It was odd and cold but Rush seemed to enjoy it. My concern was that the caller threw out the phrase...."for Christ's sake"....six times. I thought after the second time that Rush would politely thank the caller and end the call....but he let it go on for 5 1/2 minutes.....and then what happened stunned me. Rush....playing on the phrase used six times by the caller.....used it himself three times. Non-Christians wouldn't even notice this....and nominal Christians wouldn't think much about it....but others would have been supremely disappointed. This generally is not Rush Limbaugh. I not only understand but have written whole posts on how Progressives have regularly and disgustingly conjured up attacks on conservatives for being racist....but I have heard two legitimate racist callers on conservative talk radio in the past three days where the two different radio hosts not only did not challenge the callers but thanked them for calling in. My point in all this is that this is what Donald Trump does to everyone.....all of us....all of them....he brings us down to his low level....in a murky acid swamp if there ever was one.
I want to reiterate from past posts for it is important in understanding President Trump's poll numbers. The successful demonizing by Radio Free Trump of Robert Mueller among conservatives....and the ascendance of Bolshevik freshman radicals in the United States Congress....and the constant reminder of what Barack Obama did or what Hilary Clinton would have done....and various perversions of the media....only one being the Kavanaugh hearings.....have served to make Donald Trump appear as something that he is not. Reiterating further here.....Barack Obama was judgment from God on the Left in America....and Donald Trump is judgment from God on the Right in America.....just as God used Assyria to judge Israel....and Babylon to judge Judah.
Most of us have at least known the name Donald Trump for going on four decades. He was the typical rich celebrity....maybe even one of the prototypes that came to dominate the modern lives of the rich and the famous. Some Americans fed on that stuff. They would know more of Donald Trump back in 2015 than the rest of us who only knew him as a man who built towers....owned casinos.....and bought golf courses....and wrote books....(although he actually wrote none of them)....and who had three glamorous wives. Truman Capote....Donald Trump....Andy Warhol....we really didn't know much more of these celebrities other than what faced us each week at the grocery store cash register. So I was not a fan of Donald Trump by any means and as my posts show was very concerned about how we conservatives just bought into his promises without setting up any defenses in case he wasn't who he said that he was. Stopping Hilary was the order of the day. So when Trump won....and we wildly celebrated....including myself....the new President-elect almost immediately began to make the dumbest decisions that should have set off alarms all over the control rooms of true conservatism. It was time for me to read about who this Donald Trump was. I'm at forty books now....bios....critiques....praise hymn (him) books....and books specifically about Mar-a-Lago or golf or Russia....and I'm here to tell you unequivocally that this is a man who is vacuous as to anything noble....a deceiver and destroyer from day one....madly in love with himself....and the most successful con artist and charismatic cult leader America has ever known....but we won't entertain any critical examination of our champion will we....for talk radio....who we came to depend too much upon...makes sure we don't venture out to think for ourselves.
