Speaker 1:

Well, I mentioned that we shouldn't be surprised, and there's two ways that you could take that. You could say, well, yeah, because look all the stuff that Trump's done. Of course, he's got a mugshot, which I think is a ridiculous thing to say. Or you could say, yep, that's pretty much par for the course escalating on the left, pushing all this junk out there, and that's what we see. So that is exactly what I mean. Now I'm gonna give you these four reasons and let's get right into it. The first is that this absolutely backfired on the left. Trump went up in the polls. Now what actually happened? Well, they took the mugshot on August 24th 2023. And what did Trump do? He immediately shared it and turned this into a campaign asset. This helped his brand. It absolutely backfired on the left. He went up in the polls when this came out. Now, the left thought, well, this is gonna show he's a criminal, and it really just demonstrated the double standard that they have. And so Trump shared this mugshot on Twitter, or formerly Twitter on X, and this is his first tweet in years. It's just, I don't know, it's just. I think it's pretty incredible, but he posted it along with a little graphic that says election interference, never surrender DonaldJTrumpcom. And apparently he raised millions of dollars off of this, and so that's number one. It backfired on the left. He actually went up in the polls. Number two it shows the double standard. It shows the two-tiered justice system. Now we see the ridiculousness of this. It's very superficial, these things that he was indicted for and I've talked about them on previous episodes. But we see this double standard because look at these other things where you have, like Hillary Clinton and these emails, this email scandal that she had as secretary of state, where she actually deleted emails and had top secret information stored on a private server and actually tried to destroy that private server, did a bleach of it like, tried to wipe it clean on the software and the data and, I think, even tried to bust it up with a hammer. So some ridiculous, clear, obvious violations of OCEV office. And well, what do we have? No justice done there, and so we see this double standard. That's just one example. There's many others on the left that seem to continue to slide by here, and we have in the left I mean also including the establishment of the Republican Party, which really they're not conservatives, they just are rhinos, republican in name only, and so plenty of them to blame here too. Now, the third one is this exposes what the left will do, what they're willing to do. What did they do? Well, what happened in Ukraine? You know, zelensky put his political opponents in prison and probably his puppeteers were the ones leading that but after he got elected, his opponents in jail. Now, what's that happening? That should be happening in a banana republic, in some ridiculous country with no justice. Well, that's what's happening here. They're trying though they're not actually gonna be successful getting him in jail, but this is try the road they're trying to go down. They're trying to get him off the ballot, and some states are even talking about not having him on the ballot in 2024. So it's just absurd, but it shows that they're willing to do that. They're going down that road, trying to throw political opponents in prison instead of winning it outright, because they know they can't win it based on the principles that they're standing for. Now, it also shows that they're willing to change what they stand for. So it's like I said. This is number three. It exposes what the left is willing to do. So what do I mean by changing what they stand for? Well, what did they do? They had strong borders, ukraine. They have thousands of people coming from Russia into Ukraine. We've got millions of people coming into the US through the southern border, but they don't think we need to have a strong border there. So quite inconsistent and also owning firearms You've seen the elite left talking about. Well, it's great that they were armed and they could defend themselves over in Ukraine, but what are they doing here? Trying to attack our Second Amendment, rights. Now finally, number four this is my favorite. This demonstrates that people do not trust the media and the government. Now, there are certain levels of trust that we should have for government and certain things like that, but we're getting increasingly skeptical, and with good reason, because they've many people in the government have shown themselves unreliable and to actually protect us and to protect our rights and those sorts of things. Now, what do I mean by this? Well, now, in the past, when someone was indicted for anything, they usually went down in the polls and it was usually their downfall. It's what led to them basically coming out of the public eye or people no longer being interested or supporting, and there's really not any other examples where the opposite happened, where they actually got more popular and more support. Well, that's what happened here. Trump broke the mold, and here we are getting more support for Trump. It was not the downfall, so it had the opposite effect, which means people are not trusting the media, no matter how hard they are pushing this. They're just not trusting the media, and so that is great. That is great. So what do you think if you're on YouTube or rumble? Leave a comment below and tell me what your thoughts are on this.
