Sundance at Conservative Treehouse has a most excellent analysis of America First policies, the Trump administration success stories, and any future MAGA leadership. Sundance begins:
Economic security is the foundation
of national security. When the government takes action that destabilizes
our economy, every element of national security is put at risk. We are
experiencing that right now as we suffer through Joe Biden’s intentionally
flawed energy policy that is destroying the U.S. economy and everyone within
it.
“It must be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to plan,
more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to manage than a new system. For
the initiator has the enmity of all who would profit by the preservation of the
old institution and merely lukewarm defenders in those who gain by the new
ones.”
~ Niccolo Machiavelli
Never has that Machiavelli quote
been more apropos than when considering the MAGA movement and the rise of
Donald Trump.
Thankfully, we are now in an era
when the largest coalition of American voters have awakened to the reality
that, to quote the former president: “Economic Security is National
Security.”
As we live through the economic
mess of a Biden administration hell bent on eroding the middle class of the
United States, there are numerous pundits contemplating 2024 Republican
presidential candidates other than Donald Trump; consider this group the lukewarm
defenders Machiavelli noted.
At the same time the leftist
coalition, writ large, are apoplectic about the base of the Republican Party
now belonging to Donald Trump. This group consists of those affluent Wall
Street agents and politicians set on retaining the profits derived from decades
of institutional objectives.
Institutional Democrats hate Trump,
and institutional Republicans are lukewarm, at best, in defending Trump.
Both wings of the DC UniParty fear Trump. Extreme efforts at control are
a reaction to fear. In this outline, I rise to explain why Donald Trump
is the only option for the America First MAGA coalition; and I make my case not
on supposition, but on empirical reference points that most should understand.
Everything
is about the economics of it.
If you accept that at its essential
core elements the phrase “economic security is national security” is true – meaning
the lives of the American citizen, person, worker, individual or family are
best when their economic position is secure – then any potential leader for our
nation must be able to initiate policies that directly touch the
economics of a person’s life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. As a
result, economic security and economic policy must be the fulcrum of their
platform.
Now, look around and ask yourself
this question: “What separated Donald J. Trump from the remaining field of 17
GOP candidates in 2016?” An honest top-line answer would be
immigration (border control), and his views on American economic
policy. In essence, what set Donald Trump apart from all other
candidates was his view on the U.S. economy, and that was the driving factor behind
‘Make America Great Again’, MAGA.
Now, look around. Look at
every other potential candidate for political office. Is there another person
in the field of your political view who comes from the starting point that
economic security is national security?
This analysis by Sundance outlines the actual known successes of President
Trump’s America First policies; voters would have to guess how America First policies would be implemented by an alternative candidate.
Look at what Donald J. Trump was
able to achieve while he was under constant political attack. Just
imagine what Trump 2.0 would deliver.
They, the leftist Democrats and
Wall Street Republicans, are yet again absolutely petrified of that.
