Well stated Mick. We serfs must learn from the tyranny of King Charles I in 1625. He came to unchecked power 400 years ago next month. 11 years of brutal treatment of his subjects/citizens. Then the will of the people finally fought back and Charles paid for his crimes.

There is only one problem for now, the cult that worships him as their lord and savior have to be disabused of the image, for now he is still their avatar. I've been reading comments from people on other substacks, it seems that though farmers who voted for Trump because of DEI,haven't quite got over their infatuation, same with government workers who voted for him, because they thought that draining the swamp meant getting rid of the loafing Sally Mudsill in the next cubicle, or the Hispanic that vote for Trump because they thought that he would only evict the drug mules,the rapists, the criminals because they of course were law abiding citizens, and the Muslims who voted for Trump to flip the finger to Biden are now in a quandry as he is declaring war on them, and they have told the Democrats to fuck off.

I have no idea of what it will take for the MAGAts to see the light, and have a come to Jesus moment, but until they do, we are doing liittle more than commiserating and barking t the moon., the only way to right this ship, to dislodge the tyrant is with all of the nation leaning into the job, so long as we are splintered,the ship will lay on its starboard side.

How to get to the right, when the right is having an ongoing orgasm for owning the libs and putting those people in their place.?

As you are reading these other substacks do you perceive that the loyalty is to Trump himself or to Elon, Marco Rubio etc. ?

President Reagan was having memory issues his second term, and members of Cabinet got the country into situations that he didnтАЩt seem to be entirely aware of, or agreed to beforehand.

Trump people are loyal to him not to us. And the media is more restricted.

Kay in your first sentence you asked me a question

In your third and last sentence you answered your own question.

FYI, it is not the person of Trump to which they are loyal, it is the avatar that he represents. He is they writ large, their alter ego.

Thank you - that was the answer I was hoping for.

I saw a recent CNN clip in which Trump was asked by a reporter about the order he signed allowing those people to be deported to the prison in El Salvador.

Trump said TWICE that he didnтАЩt sign the order.

He said тАЬothersтАЭ sign the orders. This is allowed per Project 2025 (auto signature). It might be why there is the sudden attack against BidenтАЩs pardons. (Every accusation is a confession - per Mary Trump)

The CNN report pointed out that the order definitely had TrumpтАЩs тАЬsignatureтАЭ on it per the archives. Later, the Administration produced an Executive Order which had been signed previously allowing for everything to happen.

Remember everything that happened in ReaganтАЩs 2nd term. How many people like JD Vance, Elon Musk, Marco Rubio?

They voted for Trump. People voted for Reagan. When Republicans learned that ReaganтАЩs people were kinda running around without his full knowledge and approval - the American people got mad - at the underlings pulling the bullshit.

Reagan was still left damaged but allowed ....

Reagan, the scum, poor man had Alzheimers even while Governor of California, is worshiped as Saint by the right, when in fact MAGAts are his legitimate offspring, they sprang from his DNA.

Oh I get Mary L Trump's newsletter, daily, It is on substack for those interested. https://substack.com/@marytrump
