President Trump is in the news again (which isn’t news, for what it’s worth). He was sued by some crazy Karen over sexual misconduct allegations. While the jury ruled that he hadn’t done anything wrong, they still found him civilly liable. Kangaroo court, anyone? The crazy Karen vowed to sue him again over remarks he made at his recent CNN town hall.

Soros-backed prosecutor Alvin Bragg is persecuting Trump in relation to some hush-money agreement with Stormy “Horseface” Daniels. This case has no legs, no merit, and even Daniels herself regrets pursuing Trump. The trial will take place in the midst of primary season. Political? Absolutely. Bragg even bragged about going after Trump as one of his campaign promises!

And now, Trump has been indicted on numerous federal counts for mishandling classified documents. The double standard is unmistakable. Joe Biden unlawfully took classified documents following his vice presidency. During her tenure, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton illegally deleted thousands of official emails. A Two-tiered justice system looms over us.

Every one of us should be outraged about the persecution of President Trump: Democrat, Republican, I don’t care where you land on the political spectrum. We are witnessing Banana Republic corruption and tyranny right before our eyes, the full weaponization of our federal justice system, and the corrupt corporate media is all in on fostering fraud. If not for the federalist diffusion of state governments, I would fear all the more for every American.

Yes, Trump is getting screwed over, and all of us should be beyond outraged about this. Not afraid, but angry, but someone has to do something about this in the next Presidency. For this reason, I am supporting Governor Ron DeSantis for President.

Trump cannot fix this problem because he didn’t when he had the chance. All of this rampant federalized corruption was raging on steroids before and during Election 2020. What did Trump do about it? He had four years to correct all of this Deep State Swamp Corruption, and he failed. In 2016, Trump campaigned on appointing a special prosecutor to go after Hillary for erasing all those emails. After inauguration, he changed his mind, and even recognized her at a White House dinner gala shortly afterwards. Steve Bannon complimented Trump for not pursuing Hillary Clinton. With all due respect to the populist advisor, that exact inaction is a fundamental feature of a Banana Republic. People in power who refuse to use their power to put down wrong-doing only empower it!

In 2020, when Trump was still Commander in Chief, racialized, radicalized rioters were toppling national monuments, burning down buildings, pillaging in the streets, destroying federal properties. He could have, but refused to, stop the domestic chaos, terror, and destruction. Add to this executive inertia the unconstitutional COVID-19 lockdowns and his insistence on following the federal bean-counters, and we can see why the mess from then has metastasized now because of his bad executive choices. Let’s not forget that President Trump signed off on one bloated budget after another during his term, much of which supercharged the very weaponized bureaucracy that is now relentlessly pursuing him. At the very least, he should have vetoed that horrible spending-spree in the waning days of 2020—but he didn’t.

Compare Trump’s inaction with El Salvador President Nayib Bukele, who ignores the carping of international press. He has cracked down on rampant gang-subsidized corruption in his country, locked up the murderers and any suspected gangsters, and now he’s building a white-collar prison for the corrupt state officials, too. He is not afraid to do what is right, despite questions or controversies from political or media opponents.

Trump does not deserve to be persecuted. I stand by the assertion that he has done nothing wrong, but is the relentless target of a Cultural Marxist Deep-State operation determined to distract everyone from the fundamental spiritual and cultural problems afflicting this country, and to destroy the country in the process.

However, Trump doesn’t deserve to be President, either. Even if he got elected again (which is certainly possible), I simply don’t believe he has the skill or the will to get the job done. The United States federal government remains an Augean stable of corruption, graft, grift, and incompetence. “Let’s Make a Deal” is not going to fix anything. “You’re Fired!” will. Where was the CEO of “The Apprentice” when we needed him? It will be a Herculean task to reduce Washington DC corruption and malfeasance to a manageable minimum, not a feat that can be accomplished in six months, despite Trump’s latest campaign promises. Governor DeSantis has pressed him on this one question, once which Trump cannot answer: “If you could fix DC in six months, why didn’t you do it when you had the chance?”

Exactly.

To Trump supporters who feel that this never-ending wave of persecution against Trump justifies Trump’s re-election, I remind them of two things. First, we are electing a chief executive. That term “executive” is essential, and Trump failed to execute good policy when he had the chance. Second, Trump needs a full set of exonerations, and DeSantis as President will be able to correct the record, right the wrongs against Trump, but more importantly right the wrongs of a federal criminal (in)justice system and bankrupted bureaucracy targeting all of us.

Trump had four years to clean house, and accomplished a mixed record, one that grew steadily worse as he termed out. Yes, he cut considerable reams of red tape, and a number of his decisions cleaned out some federal agencies of their bloat (the EPA comes to mind as one example). That won’t suffice now. In contrast to Trump’s policy of domestic inaction against institutional corruption, DeSantis has removed corrupt county clerks, bad sheriffs, defiant lawless prosecutors, and he just removed the mayor of North Miami Beach following recent charges of voter fraud. Trump didn’t remove bad government actors during his one term in office. DeSantis already has one in Florida, and DeSantis can in DC.
