I have not a word of criticism. Every scandal faded when he ignored it. The entire media elite on both sides has only held him to a tight race with a near certain win (many paths to victory!) and a potential electoral landslide. His gaffes arent not a bit worse than anyone elses.
“It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood…and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly; so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat.”
Be as alpha as you like. Be as silver tongued and fearless as you like. Any of us-anyone else- would have long since broken. Its been a year and a half and every day from every side, Trump has been under unremitting, vicious, downright depraved attack.
I mean- we forget, you know? Not to get mushy…no, f**k it. Lets get mushy. Lets get real.
Theres no reason in HELL to do this. For all the shitlib conspiracy theories, he has the favors, the connections to get out of any supposed debt or legal tangle. Hes been good friends with the Clintons, the Bushes, the Kennedys, a dozen others.
His name, his family, his company, his legacy, his health, his pride, his history; his life-both his social and literal life-all of it thrown on the altar. Not to mewl cuck BS but because he loves this rotten shell of failing dreams. He loves the country that gave his family everything, and he has pledged his life, his fortune, and his sacred honor to fight for her in terrible peril.
Damn us all. Damn us all to hell. A year and a half ago every cockswinging deplorable was jerking off to Teddy Cruz and glumly ready to suck it up and vote Jeb. So we could get our amnesty with a side of guac before we ran to some fking hideyhole. Maybe let our kids turn ten before the jigs moved in next to the spics. So we could huddle down and “enjoy the decline.” Maybe catch a piece or two of bluehaired vagina while the Romes our fathers built-not just one, but a dozen Romes from coast to coast- rotted and burned.
Criticize? Comment? The unlimited hubris of it. We were WHIPPED, gang. We joked about road wars to whistle past the fking graveyard because we knew it’d never be that good. Just slow rot and shitty jobs until we died, getting older and weaker and fewer while an endless horde of muds twerked in the ruins of our grandeur.
70 years old. Taking 15 months of endless hate to take a chance at 8 years more.
The more I think of it, the more it moves me. I didn’t think we got men like this anymore. Laugh if you like. I dont give a damn. Donald Trump turned his back on endless, unlimited fame, wealth, hedonism, luxury and peace. Cincinnatus left a plow, not a throne.
I dont care if he ain’t couth. I dont care if he had every wife in Christendom, or missteps ten times or ten thousand times, or doesnt hand me every policy I love on a golden platter.
Theres a story, about Washington. After the war, with no money coming, a number of officers started the Newburgh Conspiracy-plotting a coup. Fascinating stuff, but the gist is this. Washington found out, and went to address them. He gave a speech-great, beautiful speech-to little effect. In a last attempt, he pulled out a letter from a congressman promising (again) money. Started to read it, and faltered.
He took out his glasses. Something almost none of them had seen him wear. And said:
“Gentlemen, you will permit me to put on my spectacles, for I have not only grown gray but almost blind in the service of my country.”
From anyone else,almost any other man in history that would be grotesque pandering. But Washington was really everything they say he is. And his men, these tough bastards from Saratoga and Valley Forge, wept. The conspiracy ended.
I never thought Id see a leader like that. I never thought they’d make another.
Call me naive. Call me glorystruck, blind, a sycophant and a fool. I dont care.
That’s how I feel about Donald From the By God Celebrity Apprentice Trump.
We say “God Emperor” for ironic detachment. A fantasy from Dune or a silly game for overgrown manchildren. The symbols of our cultural degeneracy used as a wall to shield us from the terrible hope we feel. We nitpick and niggle to stay on the details of this and that maneuver to hide away what we’re scared to say. Using the same humorously ironic detachment we condemn in straggling millennial twerps to hide from ourselves.
He isn’t a “shitlord” or a fantasy figure, or a meme.
The terrible, terrifying truth is for the second time-for all the warts and wives- we got another man that goddamned GOOD. We deserve-hah. After decades of failure, neglect, tomfoolery and greed, we deserve to get exactly what they say he is. Every filthy lie, every depraved fantasy of the sniveling f**king cowards we call fellow citizens is our due.
But by the grace of God-the no st, real deal, grace and blessing of the Great Jehovah- the dying remnant of our gangrenous nation flipped one last card.
And it came up a Trump.
Im with him. If he wants me to go to Valley Forge or hell, I’m with him. Even if he loses, he gave it all, all the costs he’ll bear-and he will suffer terribly- to cut a path for us out of the wilderness.
Im going back to ironic detachment now. But I wanted to speak my mind to say that I no st, no homo, no takebacks, no lie-love Donald J. Trump. And the only thing we could ever do to repay this truly great man, is Make America Great Again.
Trump’s tremendous personal sacrifice to campaign for President against an array of malevolent corrupt American institutions, the media, both political parties, and the vicious malcontents strip-mining America of Her heritage is incomprehensible to most people, even his supporters. But it’s a sacrifice that deserves acknowledgement and admiration. His courage — the courage not just to speak truth in an age of lies but to risk every creature comfort for himself and the futures of his posterity — marks him as a great man that all of us who have called the Chateau our retreat from this gay world should be proud to follow into battle.

Big news in the realm of the Orthodox Church
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-45529355
@R E P T I L E @Ghawk thoughts?
This is not new, the Patriarch of Russia has always been impossible to work with. They always view themselves as the "Third Rome" and claims that justifies their claim of being higher than the Patriarch of Constantinople.
Even then you have other Patriarchs that have cut ties with each other. Most recently, the Patriarch of Antioch cut ties with the Patriarch of Jerusalem because Jerusalem built a church in Antioch's justification. This happened in 2014.
@FLanon @Ghawk It's ridiculous to call the Russian Orthodox Church "impossible to work with" when the Ecumenical Patriarch is trying to forcibly reorganize the ROC and split one of its autonomous jurisdictions from it to form a new one, in collaboration with the Ukrainian government which persecutes Orthodox Christians.
Plus the ROC was founded in one of the parishes that the Ecumenical Patriarch seeks to remove from ROC jurisdiction
It's absolutely ridiculous.
You could even argue that the patriarchates could be like, somehow reflections of their countries or something, but Antioch and Constantinople are in the same country (even though Syria claims Antioch too), and the Ecumenical Patriarch also wants ROCOR (ROC Outside of Russia) to maintain all of the former Imperial possessions like Alaska.
Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew doesn't really do anything to help the other Orthodox churches or anything, and I get that, but he should stop infighting with Russia and start turning his attention towards the Turkish threat.
@Nuke You do realize a Soviet appointed bishop of the Russian Orthodox Church gave the OCA autonomy in the 1970's. The Patriarch of Russia has always wanted to be above the Partriach of Constantinople. Also, the ROC Out side of Russia was only established after the Russian Revolution.
As for Patriarch Bartholomew not wanting to help other churches, most churches have a high degree of autonomy from Constantinople.
@Ghawk ROCOR was established at the collapse of the Russian Empire by emigre who sought to prevent Soviet influence from affecting the rest of the Church. It is true that Patriarch Alexius I of Moscow approved a decision, but Russian Orthodox faithful in America merely sought his consent. It wasn't like the Commies actually took over the Church or anything.
Also, if you want to force the Russian Orthodox to withdraw from Ukraine and Crimea, you better be willing to take care of your mess--not just willing to destroy the Church in Ukraine.
The Russian Orthodox Church is going to be where ever there is a Russian community that it can serve.
I have seen ROC churches in Serbia, so if that is a demand, that is stupid.
Yeah, they want them to give up all of their churches in Ukraine and Crimea and give them to a new organization.
Orthodox in Ukraine atm are basically persecuted because the Ukrainian Government prefers Catholics and non-canonical Orthodox churches; only 10% of Ukraine is actually Orthodox at this point, and it's believed that it's even lower now.
Also, I'm not sure how the UOC is getting money atm, but I think they're probably not going to be able to pay for church maintenance if this goes through.
AFAIK Constantinople hasn't even made any statements of opposition to the Ukrainian government's opposition to the Orthodox church.
