We are now in Donald Trump's second term as President of the United States of America—in my opinion, for the better, not only for the "land of the free" but also the much-needed wake-up call for the world, particularly my backyard, Europe. 

Looking back on his first mandate, the predicted apocalypse did not happen, no matter how hard the Left tried, first with inciting riots under the umbrella term "Black Lives Matter," nor even the global hysteria about the China virus.

Quite the opposite – even some of the political enemies of the MAGA movement are forced to admit that his first term brought a breath of fresh air after the establishment paragons, such as Bush and Obama.

But that means nothing for the politicians, activists, and media on the liberal front – the hysteria of "Orange Man Bad" is all the same, and the talking points are still the same. Words like "Nazi" and "fascist" are so overused that they mean absolutely nothing anymore.

This could've been just the run-of-the-mill textbook politics 101, but the problem, as with everything, is the hypocrisy when the Left is involved.

The same overly vocal activists, talking heads, opinion leaders, and every other term that you can call people, that is, one missed government or Soros grant away from homelessness, are the same that were silent when the USA and the West as a whole were being destroyed from within.

When did the US debt rise to unprecedented and incomprehensible levels?

When did the West decide to delegate its manufacturing prowess to the other end of the world?

When did we all agree that people who don't work and don't want to work deserve to be nannied by the state?

Where were these geniuses then? Where was the economic literacy and comprehension of the global market?

In a recent Tucker Carlson interview, Scott Bessent, 79th United States Secretary of the Treasury, said nobody would've batted an eye if they bowed down to the establishment's politics. If they'd just continued printing money and expanding the welfare state and government sector while drowning the state in debt, the critics would've been less severe. Because the people who are now hysterical do not think of tomorrow, and the debt is spiraling out of control.

And none of it should've come out of the blue – because, whether they love or hate him, Trump may be the only elected official anywhere in the West who keeps up (or at least tries) with his campaign promises.  

And what is the tax hysteria about? 

You must understand the most essential thing: The debt is a death sentence! 

Created and nourished by the geniuses before Trump, the national debt of the biggest Western economy, the largest world army, and the most important country for the freedom and prosperity of humankind is slowly killing all of that. How? Well, let me tell you how: Even if you somehow achieve a DOGE miracle and manage to reach a balanced budget /no deficit, no new loans, no growing debt/ by cutting tens of billions of annual expenses and God knows how much bureaucracy, you will still have to pay the interest on the current debt.

More than a trillion dollars a year, even if the budget is balanced, for interest only. The debt remains the same, waiting to be settled with your money. Once again, it was brought to you by all the genius politicians before Trump: the free traders, the strategists, and the market developers. 

Essentially, the same guys who opened the borders and allowed millions of illegals to come to the US and take the jobs of the ones who needed them the most: Their voters. The working class. The common people. People without degrees. The waiters, the drivers, the housemaids, the gardeners – all being replaced by cheap illegal competitors who have violated a bunch of US laws just by crossing the border. 

How did the pre-Trump geniuses chase and fight these crime gangs? That was done by giving them jobs, social services, schools, hospitals, debit cards with thousands of dollars, free transport, free housing, and luxury hotels in the most expensive cities like New York. All paid by you. 

Fake sorrow for a fake free trade. Was it ever free trade, let alone a fair one? The integral part of free trade is that everyone is on an even playing field.

When are the West self-imposing restrictions on fair worker compensation, ethical rules, and suicidal eco-norms? At the same time, the Near East and the Far Orient are disregarding every single rule, with no syndicates, no human rights, no green deals, with a quasi-slave society and workforce in the billions.

The talk of the day now is AI. But where will the energy to power the overwhelming demand for data centers come from when we are not using our resources and shutting down coal and nuclear power plants? At the same time, China receives billions from the West for a green transition and is building…hundreds of brand—new coal power plants.

Here in the EU, Germany, leading the way for self-suicide (for the third time in a hundred years), decided to wage war against…nuclear power – the only sustainable power we've got.

But everything could be reversed – still.

The only people who are hysterical are those who created the problem. These made China the number one economy. Those who stood silent when the Far East stole your jobs, your manufacturing power, and even your American dream. Just check if you can afford a home and a decent living for a family of four with a single paycheck, as your grandfather could.

The most vocal activists against Trump are the people who made this possible. The problem is not even China – the problem, as JD put it, is the enemy within. And they will finally get their DOGE and be swiped once and for all.
