So far 2026 has begun to look a lot like 2020. President Trump has thoroughly confused democrats and detractors with his actions here at home as well as around the world. He is wickedly unpredictable! None of his detractors could imagine moves he planned, much less how these moves worked in concert with other moves. It’s hard to believe he’s already served about 17 months this time around.
This year President Trump has been leading the country in celebrating our 250th anniversary of the U.S. Constitution and the beginning of our nation. Unlike Biden’s and Obama’s administrations, Trump’s administration has included elements of faith that Democrats and other detractors have dismissed as unconstitutional based on separation of church and state.In January 2025, President Trump shut down the border and ordered the Department of Homeland Security to deport the “worst of the worst” immigrants who had entered America illegally. Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) spread like a deadly pathogen through the ranks of Democrats, media, and other detractors. Nevertheless, Trump directed federal law enforcement to work with state and local law enforcement to quell crime and violence that sprung up in urban areas governed by weak-on-crime local administrations supported by weak judges and district attorneys.
Pockets of rioters have become more active across the nation as the weather has warmed. Immigrants who entered America illegally have been tied to many of these activities. And then, the Southern Poverty Law Center was outed as an organization that paid informers and activists to instigate racial violence. That’s a nice gig if you can get it: instigate the very crimes and lawlessness you’re organized to uncover.
State and local agencies that receive funding from Washington have managed to spread the wealth to government officials and fraudsters alike … and I mean alike! Minnesota, California, and New York in particular have made government employees and community organizers richer than ever with our tax dollars. Billions of these dollars have found their way across the oceans to partners in fraud. The FBI, CIA and other federal law enforcement agencies are investigating federal agencies as well as members of congress.
Look for the summer of 2026 to reflect the summer of 2020 with daily riots in our cities. Blue cities and states are more likely to attract young rioters paid by notable woke millionaires and billionaires.
We’re still dealing with the ever-volatile Middle East. Even though President Trump is barely into his second term trying to clean up all the mess left by Biden at home and in Ukraine, he has automatically become the source of all bad decisions in world politics and wars. Meantime nighttime comics have lost their jobs, or at least their rankings because of low ratings compared with various reruns of just about any other shows.
Fox comedian Greg Gutfeld continues to dominate the usual woke political commentators who have failed to develop any new ideas.
On the other hand, Americans should be able to find quality TV and Cable shows celebrating the 250th anniversary of the founding of the greatest nation on earth today. The United States of America has a rich history of growing from 13 British colonies into a dominant nation of more than 330-million citizens. So far, the only competition are news shows about how bad we are.

I approve this message. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
“ Unlike Biden’s and Obama’s administrations, Trump’s administration has included elements of faith that Democrats and other detractors have dismissed as unconstitutional based on separation of church and state.”
Are you referring to him sharing a photo on his social media page portraying him as Jesus? Or is it the golden calf statue of himself that he erected at his golf club? Could you possibly be talking about his demeanor towards the pope? Or profiting off of his Trump Bibles?
Your continued use of God to justify your support of what this President has been doing is a mockery to Him and is a stumbling block for others. The Bible has a lot to say about those who mock God, as well as “stumbling blocks.” Have the day you deserve.
Trump walks around with a drawing of a ballroom folded up in his pocket. He takes it out and shows it to anybody he meets, talking about how great it’s going to be.
People are so used to presidents who care little of the citizens while giving money away to family and friends. Anyone know how many paintings Biden's son has sold since Joe left office?
Donald Trump is a sick person. The Republic is at risk.
“Wickedly unpredictable” interesting words when used to describe President Donald Trump.

Trump was a developer in his former life, he loved it. Still takes pride in building, even the privately financed WH Ballroom.
As predicted, these types of threads always immediately bring out the leeches, degenerates, eternal complainers, terminal malcontents and colon impacted.
Beware of false prophets
Someone put a little extra sugar in DL's flavor-aid. He's a double plus good boy.
@12:05pm - If you believe the ballroom will ultimately be privately funded, then I guess you win the mental retard gymnastics award for the day.
The U.S.A. is a sick nation. By design the of those who shape it's actions.

I saw the image (not a photo) indicating a Biblical era man in robes administering to a sick or injured man. I presumed it was a portrayal of Luke, a physician, with Trump's head and face, not Jesus.
"...elements of faith..." Faith in what? Give Trump his due but don't overdo it.
Wow, just Wow on the undying fealty that Mr. Gardner exhibits. There are good things Mr
Trump has accomplished, but they are interspersed with so many confusing decisions, so much outright hatred and retribution towards his perceived "enemies" self aggrandizement, and little respect for our constitution
I am concerned for our country's future if this is what the majority of sheep's think is what has made our country noble and great for the past 250 years!
D.L.’s drivel always reminds me of how delusional people can be.
Krusatyr at 2:08: when was the last time you saw Luke depicted in those same robes? It’s always been Jesus (three times a week service attendee here).
Thou shalt not lie. Do I need to cite the book and verse for you? You seem biblically illiterate, so I just wanted to offer my help.
What Trump is doing is revolutionizing the world. The US is the proper center. Time to enjoy.
What about the corruption and insider dealings that have doubled his and his family’s assets and worth? The Trumps make the Bidens look like pikers.
Should we just forget about the election and let Trump rule ?
You don’t have join Truth Social to see his rants on social media they are all archived by Roll Call and others . He a really bad day yesterday. He had to cancel his Freedom 250 concerts because everybody backed out, he cried because a Judge said he had to reopen the Kennedy Center and take his name off the building. That was just a sound bite of his 50 post. Can he get over Obama, he’s been out of office 10 years.
Poor Jaxson Dart he’s going to get laid out every time he gets on the field .
Well, pay attention D.L. and read actual .gov information! The ballroom and other " building projects" are being done with taxpayer money. Trump's net worth doubled in 2025. He's been " salesman in chief" getting his supporters to buy his paraphernalia and funneled our tax dollars into Trump family "projects" and his own pockets with his "renovations".
And, if you believe he's physically healthy and mentally sharp look up " sundowning" and find someone his age who is also " bruising easily". Those bruises on his hand aren't from shaking hands. Shake someone's hand and even let them grasp with both. Trump does make some of you so deranged you lose all common sense!
Worse still, he's appointed people this time who have zero experience in the job they are to do and his " pretty women" have really bombed.
Then there's the war...fine to bomb all of Iran's nuclear capability but then he goes decides to screw up the strait out of ignorance.
This joker is gaslighting us at this stage of the game
D.L.’s column reads less like political analysis and more like a Trump campaign email that wandered into the newspaper. He claims Trump is “wickedly unpredictable” as if chaos is leadership, then blames Democrats, immigrants, blue cities, the SPLC, federal agencies, late-night comics, and “woke millionaires” for everything short of humidity.
The problem is not that Trump’s critics are confused.
The problem is that his defenders keep mistaking confusion for strategy. If every scandal, riot, court fight, foreign policy mess, and constitutional concern is dismissed as “Trump Derangement Syndrome,” then there is no room left for accountability.
That is not patriotism. It's bullshit!
All of the chaos is intended to distract from two things. Every thing else you think about his admin is meant to distract from these two things. Trump is 100% owned by Miriam Adelson (she paid for his campaign) and Benjamin Netanyahu (has the tapes)
