Been thinking about everything that has happened in the past few weeks with Trump and that has zero brakes... and where we are now. Where is that exactly?
Trump facing the 14th amendment.
So what happened? Basically, we are watching a monolithic entity that used to shape the zeitgeist as we know it is falling apart. The old media is crumbling. The animal is dying.
They wanted to indict him. They figured him facing jail time would stop his momentum. It failed. They listed charges. They screamed insurrection. Still... nothing. It only made Trump more popular. New York didn't give him a mugshot because they had half a brain to know better than to make him a folk hero. However that train just kept gaining momentum.
So now what happened?
The dying animal kicked at its opposition to save itself in desperation. Trump was told to surrender himself to a County Jail in Fulton County to be arrested. They wanted to make him an example. They wanted to humiliate him. Trump came to these hallowed halls of machine oppression. They took his mugshot.
The machine did humiliate the man. A former sitting president has never been arrested in history. This is where we are... these strange but interesting days. What is truly foolish about this machine it the ones running it don't understand the history of our country. Our founding father's were men who gave the finger to a massive machine that oppressing them. A document was written by men with wills of iron who knew they were committing actual treason at the time: they wrote the Declaration of Independence.
They were CRIMINALS to the crown. To us they are now heroes. Trump is, to the modern crown, a criminal and enemy. We all know the mugshot. Its going to go down in history as one of the most important images ever created, because now Trump has transcended into something bigger than he could have ever made himself: he is now a folk hero. That mugshot is a symbol to ANY person on the planet who has been unfairly oppressed by those in power. The machine gave the people a symbol to rally around.
You can't create this sort of energy artificially, it is created on accident by foolish men who do not understand the powers they are trying to harness or suppress. They will try the 14th amendment, but everybody knows there was no insurrection, we've all seen the videos. We've all seen the evidence.
You can't stop the Trump Train. There are no brakes that powerful. They can only try to derail it. But much like the fools who didn't understand the powers they were trying to contain, do they not understand what devastation a train going that fast with that much power would cause if derailed? I really hope they do.
Well said patriot. o7

Awww! I haven’t seen this kitty in a minute!
OP here, thanks for the love.
I sometimes sit and think about what its like to be Trump. The guy was given money and could have stopped there. He made an empire from his inheritance, going up and down in wealth. The reality is, he could have just been another billionaire, living in extreme luxury, wanting for nothing.
Yet he got into politics. He because president. Now he surrounded by animals and killers 24/7, all who want to bring him down and destroy him.
He isn't a perfect man, but unlike other politicians and men, he seems to give a damn. He doesn't seem want to be another rich billionaire that would be forgotten wielding power to benefit himself. He wants to leave a mark on the world, and make that world a better place than it was before he arrived.
I can't fathom that thinking. Then again, I'm not Trump. God bless him.
Bottom line. There was only one perfect man. If anyone else appears to be a perfect man you can know with full confidence that something like the CIA is involved.
I would have really been concerned if Trump was presented as a near perfect man.
It is a good point. Anybody who tries to present themselves as perfect, squeaky clean, to be real a "perfect" candidate and human being as a politician screams of red flags.
Idiot question, what does the o7 mean? Salute?
Correct.
I'll disagree with you on only one point of this otherwise spot-on article.
The machine did NOT humiliate Trump. One can only be humiliated if one permits it. They tried, and failed.
Instead, the machine did the opposite: it GLORIFIED Trump!
There are indeed no brakes!
You can be both glorified and humiliated at the same time. These two states aren't mutually exclusive. I'm sure Trump did not appreciate having his mugshot taken all things considered. Many understand this humiliation because they have been in his boots: being innocent and arrested anyways.
Still my point is that this travesty does have its benefits. Every person who has been messed with in this way now has something in common with Trump. A shared humiliation is something to bond over.
Have you read President Trump's Art of the Deal? “Good publicity is preferable to bad, but from a bottom-line perspective, bad publicity is sometimes better than no publicity at all. Controversy, in short, sells.” Donald J Trump Art Of The Deal.
I haven't read the book, but I understand the idea. I mean its a quite simple axiom.
My point is if you asked Trump, deep down, if he wanted to go the Georgia to a crappy jail that drunks and murderers pass through being the former president I'd say no. If you ask Trump if he'd prefer to be running for president right now rather than BE president now, I'd believe it would be the latter.
In regards to Trump turning a negative to a positive, he is the master of it. But going from president of the United States to having his mugshot taken in some Fulton County is jail is still humiliating.
Not when it’s part of the bigger plan. There have been others, including Christ, who understood the bigger picture and submitted to their role in facilitating it for the good of others. I don’t think Trump does any of this for himself. If it’s humiliating, so be it. “They’re not after me, they’re after YOU. I’m just standing in their way.” That’s the objective. He loves America enough to set aside what all this means for him personally. That is a man God can use, and I believe that’s what’s happening. There’s honor in a sacrifice for the greater good.
I agree! he was not humiliated - they were. It must be extremely humiliating for Fani to realize she is now helping to fund his Presidential run buy doing something even that moron in NY didn't do. Bragg used both of his brain cells to determine a mugshot would be devastating for their side and wildly popular for our side.
Want more proof Trump wasn't humiliated? "Look to Twitter" (hey - things can have multiple meanings). Trump's first post on Twitter in a couple years, after being reinstated, was what? His mugshot. That's not humiliation - that's wearing it as a badge of honor and taking control.
So far Trump doesn't seem to have made any mistakes, and I expect that will continue.
clapping here ...nice post fern
Upvote for good post. But the word you needed was brakes not breaks.
There are zero breaks on this ride where we are going, for this train has NO BRAKES.
That works.
Nice catch. Should have chose a better word processor. Of well, fixed. :)
No prob. Just pointing it out. Still a very good post.
Oof. A lot of grammatical errors. Went and fixed a bunch.
Oh well.... Da grammar nazis are here!
I'm trying to be eloquent on this post. Not every post needs to be grammatically perfect, but I was trying to weave a story here. Missing words, bad punctuation, and misspellings take you out of what I was trying to iterate.
Nahh it's alright. I love your post!
I don't believe for a minute that the clowns running the jail in Fulton County took his mugshot.
They were given his mugshot.
NCSWIC!🇺🇲🥰

Well done
Death on a cross was meant to humiliate Jesus Christ. It worked for about 3 days.....then came the resurrection! Checkmate Satan!
AMEN! Praise God!
Solid post, and I thought these four sentences really captured the heart of what's going on:
This is a good read!
Another awesome example of double meanings: "Symbolism will be their downfall".
