Great piece, Don. I was listening to Megyn who had Brandon Weichert on talking strategy and how we are going to fail, etc. for 40 minutes. Brandon Weichert... I have followed him at American Greatness. Seems like good guy. However... Has he grabbed a weapon and stood a post? No. Has he been downrange? No. He is an analyst, 'serving' in Sodom on Potomac.
All of these 'insiders' - clickbaiters - make their money talking without risk.
Nobody but People in these audiences reflects that Trump has been attacked for 10 years exactly like our Founding Fathers. They won. He will too. Do not doubt him. Why? Because he uses our most important weapon: economic leverage.
The Vermin in D.C. only use their presence to acquire money while Trump has lost hundreds of millions.
That guy! Early in PDJT’s “excursion,” Brian Glenn had him on RAV in the morning, then Bannon had him on for days. ALL he does is talk down our military’s success and doomblab. He’s a snake IMHO. Tokyo Brandon.
And you are entirely correct on PDJT’s wielding of the economic angle.
All of these talking heads and self ordained experts are good at one thing; self promotion. If someone says they are an expert, they likely aren’t save a very small few. Unless someone is in the room when the briefings take place, they don’t know anymore than you or I do. I was not a fan of Gen (ret) Jack Keene but his insight is pretty close on most issues. But he doesn’t pretend to know things that he doesn’t. His insight comes from actual experience.
We have too many on "our" side like those. I've been a fan of Carl Higby on Newsmax, but lately he's starting to become a little squirrely. You see more of that underhanded anti-Israel (Jew) sentiments coming from them like Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly. Higby has started taking the side of jerks like Massie and Paul. I'm really tired of so many turncoats who claim to ostensibly be on our side. It's no wonder we rarely win major policy accomplishments.
Thanks; I know who Tokyo Rose was, but I suppose I'm just out of some popular loops, given that I also had to look up the meaning of SWAG. That didn't help much either, since it can mean free promotional stuff given out at a convention, or a cool, confident appearance, or stuff carried by a wanderer, as in "Once a jolly swagman, stopped by a billabong ..."
" It is a term used to describe an educated guess based on experience, intuition, and available data when precise information is lacking. "
"SWAGs play a crucial role in the planning and budgeting phases of construction projects. When detailed plans and specifications are not yet available, project stakeholders rely on SWAGs to create preliminary budgets and schedules."
Megyn is not a conservative. She’s a business woman. She’s good at stirring things up and being controversial to generate clicks and views. She is quick to abandon people when it suits her purpose. She is one of the back bencher leeches who profit from their links to the government. She is successful by being controversial.
She showed us her true colors in August 2015 when she pathetically tried to ambush then candidate Trump. He shot her down in superb fashion and destroyed her career at FNC. She eventually realized she better read the tea leaves so all at once she became one of Trump's most vocal supporters. But once these people who are fakes see a small chance to take shots at Trump, they trip all over themselves to get in a cheap blow. All Kelly is doing is slipping up and showing us who she has been the entire time.
That's pretty much it. Everyone wants to make the "entertainer expert" that they enjoy reading or watching the perfect conservative. But they aren't. They are people who make a living entertaining us. "Experts" or "wise" never enter into the picture.
They both realized they were becoming irrelevant and weren’t the “latest and greatest” anymore. Owen’s has always been just an entertainer with no substance but Carlson surprised me some. Tuckers on-ramp to get back his followers was too radical but it points out that he is conservative-lite with lots of moderate or downright liberal beliefs. We all need to constantly remind ourselves that these people are entertainers first and foremost and most know less than you and I.
Candace wasn't originally "just an entertainer"--she was a brave black woman speaking valuable conservative truth to the Left. What happened to her recently, I have no idea.
She lost her way and realized she could make a lot of money from her positions, but she forgot that required her to constantly up her game to keep her viewers happy. That song has played countless times before but they never stop to listen until it’s too late.
Yep , the podcast leeches ( quoting Catturd ) are all members of the MSM now ; meaning you can't believe a blessed thing that comes out of their mouth . And the membership list is getting longer .
I am reminded that "past performance is not indicative of future results". Too much money, and too much "influence" perhaps. Maybe they felt the need to become "controversial" to draw a larger audience.
I had to look this guy oops person up. Talking strategy??? This is its short bio: "Brandon Weichert is a former congressional staffer and geopolitical analyst who occasionally serves as an expert for various organizations."
Former. Analyst. (not doer) Occasional expert. Degree in "statecraft." My word. And people listen to it?
What’s with American patience these days? Whipped by the 24 hour news cycle, we have none! Everyone needs to calm down and let this man finish what he started. He’s never not delivered on time and within budget, so chill. I’m assured he will get all of what he went there for, and we will leave when it’s done. In war, you send your armies and navies as a show of strength, but you don’t have to use them, you just have to make the other guy blink. And when Don’s at the table, they always blink. Thank you Mr. Surber for reminding us that some Americans still have what we call resolve, and our president is one of them.
I couldn’t agree more about American patience. We live in an age of instant gratification (especially the youth). Imho, technology has done that to the human race.
The behavior and conduct of Democrats and the legacy media has been nothing short of treason. They have overtly given aid and comfort to our enemy and have openly cheered for our defeat. Enough is more than enough. They need to be called out for their treachery and they need to pay a very high price. I don't know what it is going to take for people to realize we will never peacefully coexist with the Democratic Party which is committed to America's destruction as a constitutional republic. They need to be banned.
I voted for Carter as did the majority so far. He may be dead but when did that ever stop the demonicrats? I have a feeling that everyone else who voted for him did so for the same reason.
As to the uranium - Trump is demanding back what 0bama paid the Iranians to manufacture. We paid for it - it belongs to us, as Reagan said of his microphone. Our great grandkids will still be dealing with the effects of that devil 0bama’s reign of error just as we are still dealing with the effects of dead Jimmy Carter.
Mr Obama had a lot of help being wrong and all the advice he received was bad. One of those idiot advisors is a Rep in Virginia now. Total snake. Sadly, most presidents have to rely on so-called experts to carry out their business. Few presidents had the previous experience required to sift out all the daily BS they are bombarded with daily. Some thought they were smarter than everyone around them. Mr Trump is no ones fool and his BS meter is always on.
Very true-- the Presidency is an extremely demanding job, and very, very few are up for it.
And bear in mind, that even Trump--who is a superstar for the ages--had a difficult first term. I had really thought that Trump had the savvy to pick good staff--he even had a TV SHOW WHERE HE ASSESSED POTENTIAL STAFF ("The Apprentice"), but even Trump was bamboozled by a lot of Washington DC snakes.
Can you imagine that some people think AOC, whose experience consists solely of being a bartender, would be up for the job?
And consider again, that we had an actual dementia patient in the Presidency for 4 years!!!!!!
It is a miracle we even emerged somewhat in one piece from that.
I don’t think any people who strive to be president have a good idea of what demands it places on a person or how two faced most of the non-elected types in government are. Ike had the leadership experience but found out how treacherous that staff could be. GHW Bush knew as well I believe. Truman was skeptical of most of government and rightfully so. Reagan knew but had some loyal staff to help him. The federal government is like a living organism with deep seated opinions and agendas in much of the non-elected staff. Add the leeches that live off of the governments largess and it is a difficult body to maneuver and generate momentum with. One of the reasons Trump has been so successful this term is that he learned from his own mistakes and put in place people who are believers and loyal. Rubio has helped him immeasurably. Both have managed to to make their opposition look silly and take positions that are contrary to a majority of Americans position. That is a hard thing to do. We need to ignore the white noise, the No Kings crazies, and the constant naysayers and finish the job in Iran and move the economy back to American prominance .
For many reasons, enabling Iran's nuclear weapons being among the most prominent, Obama needs to be tried for treason, convicted, and hanged. His Arab Spring, where he murdered Kadhafi and turned Libya into a failed terrorist state, initiated the monstrous migration of Muslims from North Africa into Europe, overwhelming and destroying the remnants of Western Civilization. His open borders started the same monstrous hordes illegally storming across our borders and trying to destabilize America. No one in our history has ever betrayed America to the extent of this black fraudulent piece of royal snit. He should receive the most severe punishment for treason, and his three ill-begotten estates should be donated to the homeless.
But I think he could actually--to some extent--be enjoying himself. Yes, he faces a level of HATRED and opposition no President has ever had to face.
But, he has now what is called "agency"--defined as "the capacity to act independently and to make one's own free choices." As leader of the free world, Trump has a super high level of "agency". Imagine waking up every morning and knowing you can fix and do a tremendous amount of important things.
That would definitely get me out of bed and 'raring to go".
May Trump be blessed with this sweet reward for his work.
I don’t think we are getting our hands on the nuke materials but neither will the Iranians. I think we bunker busted the stuff deep enough that we can monitor any attempts to retrieve it. And if necessary go back and bury it again.
I also think we will control Kharg island somehow. We will get paid back for our expense and the lost lives going back decades because of these loons. Trump will see to that.
William, I agree with you regarding us bunker busting the nuke materials and I believe that PDJT said as much yesterday. How blessed we are to have someone like him to be our Commander in Chief. As Gutfeld frequently says, we don't deserve him - but I'm sure thankful we have him and the loyal, brilliant team who actually support him and help to carry out the mission. I'm looking forward to hearing what he has to say tonight. God bless President Trump and God bless America!
You don't store enriched uranium in boxes on a shelf. It has to be contained in something that can absorb the radiation. Our first bombing not only closed the door, it likely damaged those containers making the area around them now saturated with radiation.
That's not a good place to be sending troops. Anyone venturing into that without adequate protection is a dead man walking, and it's something that should only be done by experts.
We're best off to keep it sealed where it is and monitor the region. Then if someone gets the bright idea of spelunking for treasure, introduce them to a MK82 bomb.
He said he’d do it for the oil 39 years ago, and he’s doing it for the oil. He also once said that we should’ve taken Iraq’s oil when Bush wimped out. The one with all the oil, the means to refine it and ship it and watch over the traffic in the Straits wins, and that will give us a marvelous base of operations to watch over the sneaky sheiks of greater Araby! And let the NATO nations come and beg for the right to pass through the Straits when PDJT sets up a toll booth to make up for all the dues they never paid!
Thirty-nine years in the making. Thirty-three days in the execution. And y’all thought the Red Chinese were good at long-range thinking. The very best thing about Donald Trump is he says what he means and then he actually does it. Most politicians are O and 2 on both of those counts.
Don’t know how you came across that Walter’s interview of Trump, Don, but great catch. It really adds to the stature of Trump as a great, practical thinker, and not a rash person.
I think his tweets will actually hold up well over time.
Trump has been right a long time. The 2nd Gulf war should have been against Iran not Iraq I’ve always felt. If the people of Iran are still subjugated by IRGC and the Mullahs in any peace deal then we’ve won militarily but lost morally. You can’t let these MF’ers get away with murdering 30-40 thousand of their own people without giving the survivors freedom.
Yes, to me that’s been one of life’s mysteries. Just makes me appreciate all the more those actors that remain sane as they age. Something in that water …
Two observations on how Trump has managed this war:
1. He negotiates with the Iranian 'regime' in public with his press gaggles in the Oval Office and Air Force 1, simultaneously framing in the minds of the American people what it's going to look like, such as that the Strait of Hormuz is for the taking.
2. Unlike ALL of his modern predecessors from Ford through Biden, he doesn't create "plausible deniability" if things go south. He flatly states, "I will make the call when to end the war, when I feel it in my gut and know it in my head." No bee ess. No false bromides that 'the buck stops here' when every one of them, Reagan included, did what they were told to do.
We're watching the Art of the Deal in real time. All of the media's sources are proponents of the globalist rules based order, Guardians of Decay who fly around the world on their private jets to attend symposiums to manage decline and tell each other how superior they are to the unwashed masses who literally pay all their bills--in currency and in blood. They say Trump has no plan. They are lying. They know what the plan is, and it is to destroy their paradigm of the world.
Trump hates to lose. Let me correct that. Trump refuses to lose. Thank God he loves America, because that is what he is trying to save.
I voted for Biden as recycling is all the dems can do & at least he is still alive (I guess). For all those MTG types channeling their inner peaceniks, I remember Carter’s utterly disastrous attempt to free the hostages. Humiliation took on a new meaning. That is until Biden withdrew from Afghanistan. Don’t remember all the outrage when those 13 soldiers died. Saw that item about 2028 & it was hard to know what to think- either they are that stupid or they think we are. After seeing a clip (that Elon reposted) where the interviewer asked a protester about whether Trump should be as concerned about the gays of Hormuz as he was about the “straits” of Hormuz & her response was “I think so” my inclination is the former.
Saw a bit of info that I did not know, Trump has the highest IQ of any president (175). At this point, I would be all in making him King.
Hah! You wonder who the Democrats will run in two years? They've already decided, and they mention his name every time they open their mouth. He is, they firmly believe, guaranteed to win the next presidential election. His name? "Not Trump."
Great piece, Don. I was listening to Megyn who had Brandon Weichert on talking strategy and how we are going to fail, etc. for 40 minutes. Brandon Weichert...

I'm sorry; maybe I lack background knowledge due to not listening to the same radio personalities. But who is "that guy"? And who is Tokyo Brandon?
I think they're referring to Brandon Weichert mentioned in a post by Danimal28
Yep, Brandon Weichert.
Every time he appears now, I start looking a little side-eye at the supposedly PDJT-supporting hosts giving him the kid-glove treatment.
We have too many on "our" side like those. I've been a fan of Carl Higby on Newsmax, but lately he's starting to become a little squirrely. You see more of that underhanded anti-Israel (Jew) sentiments coming from them like Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly. Higby has started taking the side of jerks like Massie and Paul. I'm really tired of so many turncoats who claim to ostensibly be on our side. It's no wonder we rarely win major policy accomplishments.
Higby is a libertarian to the max ,, thus his support for the D.C. crybabies.
perhaps the 2026 version of Tokyo Rose? I have no idea, but just my best SWAG
Thanks; I know who Tokyo Rose was, but I suppose I'm just out of some popular loops, given that I also had to look up the meaning of SWAG. That didn't help much either, since it can mean free promotional stuff given out at a convention, or a cool, confident appearance, or stuff carried by a wanderer, as in "Once a jolly swagman, stopped by a billabong ..."
My good former client always said that it meant Sophisticated Wild Ass Guess and that is the way I use it
Scientific Wild Ass Guess ...
" It is a term used to describe an educated guess based on experience, intuition, and available data when precise information is lacking. "
"SWAGs play a crucial role in the planning and budgeting phases of construction projects. When detailed plans and specifications are not yet available, project stakeholders rely on SWAGs to create preliminary budgets and schedules."
Great one.
Exactly! Thanks. Yes it was a tad obscure…

Perfect discection of M.K.
Nice gal, good looking, pretty common sense, but not an expert on anything.
She showed us her true colors in August 2015 when she pathetically tried to ambush then candidate Trump. He shot her down in superb fashion and destroyed her career at FNC.

For sure. I still tune into these folks if they have interesting interviews. For knowledge I turn elsewhere.
👍
What happened to Tucker and Candace
They both realized they were becoming irrelevant and weren’t the “latest and greatest” anymore. Owen’s has always been just an entertainer with no substance but Carlson surprised me some. Tuckers on-ramp to get back his followers was too radical but it points out that he is conservative-lite with lots of moderate or downright liberal beliefs.

The LOOK AT ME club hit her between the eyes !!

They drank media tea also known as ego boost urine.

That and I don't think he realized the size of the labyrinth that is the Federal bureaucracy .
Given that the majority of donk voters are also dead, it stands to reason that they would back Carter.
For many reasons, enabling Iran's nuclear weapons being among the most prominent, Obama needs to be tried for treason, convicted, and hanged.

Revenge is best served cold. 47 years should be enough.
Trump is as consistent as the sun.
But it is Year 39 since Trump promised to annihilate Iran’s tyrannical regime
Promises made. Promises kept.
Look at Trump in 87 and his remarks. About the same.
Now look at Chuck U. Schumer speaking at that time. Typical politician
Good column Mr. S
Thank you
Trump has never changed his core beliefs in how to take America to what the founders dreamed for their progeny, NEVER !
Love him or hate him. He is not a politician. And that's so refreshing. I don't know he gets up every morning and goes at it again and again.
The love for this country is so evident
Trump's stamina is incredible.
But I think he could actually--to some extent--be enjoying himself. Yes, he faces a level of HATRED and opposition no President has ever had to face.
But, he has now what is called "agency"--defined as "the capacity to act independently and to make one's own free choices." As leader of the free world, Trump has a super high level of "agency". Imagine waking up every morning and knowing you can fix and do a tremendous amount of important things.
That would definitely get me out of bed and 'raring to go".
May Trump be blessed with this sweet reward for his work.
Schumer hasn't changed his core beliefs either. He'll lie to your face and not blink for a buck just like he did when he was first elected.
The D can denote democrat demanding donors dollars and so a career in politics is born ala chucky or fjb.
You forgot dementia.
The schmuck has always been a typical politician, lie to your face then stab you in the back. He ain't changed either.
Opinions are like noses. Everyone has one. Cheers
I was agreeing with you, just pointed out that while his words have changed, his character has always been lower than whale shit.
I’m sorry I misunderstood you. As I told one of my daughters, “I’m voting for him for POTUS. I’m not selecting him as my minister.”
I don’t think we are getting our hands on the nuke materials but neither will the Iranians. I think we bunker busted the stuff deep enough that we can monitor any attempts to retrieve it. And if necessary go back and bury it again.
I also think we will control Kharg island somehow. We will get paid back for our expense and the lost lives going back decades because of these loons. Trump will see to that.
William, I agree with you regarding us bunker busting the nuke materials and I believe that PDJT said as much yesterday. How blessed we are to have someone like him to be our Commander in Chief.

I vote for Dapper-Dan man Gavin, he owns a Whinery….
I had to vote for Carter as he's the only one on that list that fits the description of "a straight, white, Christian man".
Yes, Jimmy Carter because the Dims get so many of their voters from the dearly departed it’s time they picked one as a candidate.
AWESOME! 🤣😂
Yup. "Christian" eliminated the rest of them. For all his faults and incompetence as president, I do think he was a Christian man.
Thirty-nine years in the making. Thirty-three days in the execution. And y’all thought the Red Chinese were good at long-range thinking. The very best thing about Donald Trump is he says what he means and then he actually does it. Most politicians are O and 2 on both of those counts.

All straight white male democrats are low testosterone, weird, corrupt or a combination of all the above. None are presidential material.
All straight white male democrats have XX DNA, so the low testosterone levels are normal.
They should run Carter in '28. In his current state, he's as mentally alert and competent as the last Democrat president.
Trump has been right a long time. The 2nd Gulf war should have been against Iran not Iraq I’ve always felt. If the people of Iran are still subjugated by IRGC and the Mullahs in any peace deal then we’ve won militarily but lost morally. You can’t let these MF’ers get away with murdering 30-40 thousand of their own people without giving the survivors freedom.
“Maximum optionality”
My new favorite phrase, replacing DeNiro’s “I have enthusiasms” (as Capone in The Untouchables, right before whacking a mob boss with a bat).
True.
It’s become more obvious in the past couple years why DeNiro is so capable at portraying whackjobs. He’s come out as one of the lead lefty ones.
Yes, to me that’s been one of life’s mysteries. Just makes me appreciate all the more those actors that remain sane as they age. Something in that water …
He should just pay his additional NYC taxes, which he was whining about, and shut up!!!
Two observations on how Trump has managed this war:
1. He negotiates with the Iranian 'regime' in public with his press gaggles in the Oval Office and Air Force 1, simultaneously framing in the minds of the American people what it's going to look like, such as that the Strait of Hormuz is for the taking.

No false bromides that 'the buck stops here' when every one of them, Reagan included, did what they were told to do.
We're watching the Art of the Deal in real time. All of the media's sources are proponents of the globalist rules based order, Guardians of Decay who fly around the world on their private jets to attend symposiums to manage decline and tell each other how superior they are to the unwashed masses who literally pay all their bills--in currency and in blood. They say Trump has no plan. They are lying. They know what the plan is, and it is to destroy their paradigm of the world.
Trump hates to lose. Let me correct that. Trump refuses to lose. Thank God he loves America, because that is what he is trying to save.
Well said.
Amen, Alan. Amen.🙏
I voted for Biden as recycling is all the dems can do & at least he is still alive (I guess). For all those MTG types channeling their inner peaceniks, I remember Carter’s utterly disastrous attempt to free the hostages. Humiliation took on a new meaning. That is until Biden withdrew from Afghanistan. Don’t remember all the outrage when those 13 soldiers died. Saw that item about 2028 & it was hard to know what to think- either they are that stupid or they think we are. After seeing a clip (that Elon reposted) where the interviewer asked a protester about whether Trump should be as concerned about the gays of Hormuz as he was about the “straits” of Hormuz & her response was “I think so” my inclination is the former.
Saw a bit of info that I did not know, Trump has the highest IQ of any president (175). At this point, I would be all in making him King.
Hah! You wonder who the Democrats will run in two years? They've already decided, and they mention his name every time they open their mouth. He is, they firmly believe, guaranteed to win the next presidential election. His name? "Not Trump."
