Or is he? It is hard to tell anymore what will happen. Democrats want us to think it is all over for Trump. While Republicans seem to be standing behind him. The one thing that is for sure, Trump knows how to keep his name in the headlines. Perhaps that has been his strategy all along, to keep his name in front of the American people. The people who ultimately make their decision at the ballot box.

The Democrat plan, however, has been to castrate his presidency from day one. Over the last three years they have opposed every action by the president, even reversing their previous positions on many issues. Many were previously for immigration reform and building a barrier on the southern border. They were against a purely partisan impeachment and had expressed those views openly before Trump was elected. They were for pulling troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan, until they weren't when Trump announced that was what he intended to do. They were all for going after terrorists and taking them out of the equation, until Trump took action to eliminate the biggest terrorist of all. The one who has been funding all the other minor terrorist organizations for years. Who has helped to train, develop strategies, send weapons and created hidden cells in many parts of the world. The one responsible for the Jihadist propaganda machine at work in all Muslim countries.

I do not recall an outcry from Democrats in the House and Senate when Obama took out Osama Bin Laden, in a foreign nation, without that nations permission and without informing the world before hand. No, because their was a price on his head. There was also a price on the head of Qassem Soleimani. He was banned by the United Nations from leaving Iran. Yet there he was, days after orchestrating an attack on the US Embassy in Iraq, going in to help orchestrate future attacks. He should have stayed home.

Congress complained, "oh no, Trump has drug us into another war." But Congress is the only political body in the USA capable of declaring war. The President has to ask them for permission for entering into a war. He doesn't, however, have to ask permission to exercise his prerogative as Commander in Chief to take down a known terrorist.

Democrats and many Republicans have been intent from the beginning to castrate the Trump Presidency, leave him impotent, and ineffectual. They have failed but they have left us with a divided nation. A nation where families, friends, and neighbors no longer can agree to disagree but instead must act out, belittle, demean and in the end act just like the politicians who led us here.

It is not the endo of the Trump Presidency. Not yet anyway. He will continue as he has to stand up for all Americans and work to help them have a better life, with more opportunities for progress. The only way Trump is leaving Office is if the American People decide he is to leave. Not when a bunch of self serving politicians who have been in office for decades decide. They have lined their pockets with money from American Taxpayers for so long they have no idea who they work for. It is time they were removed from office. And we have an opportunity come November to do just that. Get Out to Vote!
