It's Okay to Finally Admit it: Trump is Good President

Isn’t it about time you finally face the truth? You may not be able to admit it out loud to your friends, family, or coworkers, but you can at least look in the mirror and admit it under your breath: Trump isn’t that bad.

We were sold that Trump was a terrible racist, yet his favorite accomplishments are ones important to black voters. He twisted bipartisan arms to pass the First Step Act, last year the SBA granted $330 million in loans to black women, Trump funded HBCUs, and created opportunity zones. He’s also been an advocate for school choice.

It’s time to face reality: either Trump isn’t a racist or racism doesn’t play as big a role in your daily life as the media would have you think. I believe both are true.

The economy was good before the pandemic. Black, Hispanic, Asian, and female unemployment was at historic lows. Hiring signs were up everywhere, and wages naturally rose to be competitive. Democrats try to claim Trump’s tax cuts only benefited the rich, but that isn’t true. Many Americans saw additional money back on their paychecks, double income tax credits for their children, and experienced some sort of benefit from their employer. Some employees received bonuses, and some companies gave education stipends. Democrats were banking on a recession that never manifested to overcome Trump’s popularity.

We were sold that Trump was dangerous, but he’s the only president in my lifetime who hasn’t started any new wars. He was sold as an anti-Semite and an Islamaphobe, yet he’s negotiated peace deals in the Middle East, resulting in multiple Nobel Peace Prize nominations.

Trump was painted as homophobic, but he appointed Richard Grenell (who is openly gay) as an ambassador and began an effort to decriminalize homosexuality around the world.

We were sold that Trump would be a dictator, yet immigrants who fled oppressive regimes—like the Cuban population in Florida—support the president and see him as a warrior against socialism. Trump is called a fascist by leftists, yet he resisted making enormous power grabs during the pandemic and allowed federalism to rule. Governors like Cuomo and Newsom praised Trump’s pandemic response until it was no longer politically expedient. When the pandemic first began, I was optimistic about how Americans came together. Companies built ventilators, created masks, the National Guard built hospitals in major convention centers across the country, and a ship was sent to New York.

But eventually, the pandemic became extremely political. Democrats also got that recession they needed to compete.

Even with all that has happened, Gallup reported 56% of Americans say they’re better off today than they were four years ago.

That’s incredible, considering the barrage of negative media coverage. It’s surprising how many Americans still believe Trump colluded with Russia, but thorough investigations found nothing. It turns out the FBI knew the Steel Dossier was bad as early as December of 2016. Many mocked Trump for claiming Obama spied on his campaign, but that turned out to be true. Even Biden was caught having more to do with the targeting of General Michael Flynn than he originally claimed.

Some Americans believe Trump is a criminal who deserved to be impeached, yet the articles didn’t charge the president with any crimes. Not only was he acquitted; Democrats aren’t using impeachment in their campaign strategy.

Is Trump’s style crude? No doubt, but there have been far more controversial presidential figures in the past who benefited from existing pre-social media. Trump idolizes figures like President Grant because he, too, is a flawed leader who serves a purpose: to fight for America and win. Trump’s closing message at the presidential debate last week was the success of Americans will unite us. Biden’s closing argument hinged on a plea that he has a superior moral character. As a black voter that has been constantly demeaned by Biden, that’s not enough for me. Is it good enough for you?

If your family is safer and, overall, more prosperous today than four years ago, consider why.

Maybe you can’t admit it out loud, but you can trust the ballot box to keep your secret.

Is the Black Vote Up for Grab?

Is the Black Vote Up for Grab?

If celebrities could move an election, Hillary Clinton would be president. However, there’s a difference between condescending PSAs from liberal celebrities and curious figures like Kanye West. One side tells you what to think. The other tells you it’s okay to think.

Yelp's New Racism Policies May Potentially Hurt Innocent Businesses

In a world where Black Lives Matter activists march to restaurants and harass patrons until they throw up their fists and chant their mantra like a cult, you’d think businesses would discourage witch hunts. Unfortunately, that’s not the world we live in.

Republicans Should Fill the Seat: Rebutting the Haters

29 times, a Supreme Court vacancy occurred in an election year. Out of those 29 times, 19 were when a president and the senate majority were of the same party. Of those 19 times, the nominee was confirmed 17 times. Only twice was there a confirmation when the nominee and president were from a different party. As always with politics, it’s about who has the votes.

Democrats are to Blame for a Future Conservative Majority on the Court

I’d wager the Kavanaugh hit job radicalized Lindsey Graham more than anything else. He was John McCain’s BFF and voted for Justices Sotomayor and Kagan. The Democrats were his friends, and I don’t think he recognized how evil they could be until that moment. His rageful speech became the midterm battle cry. “Boy, y’all want power. God, I hope you never get it.”

Because of Democrats, Trump Must Pick A Ginsburg Replacement

Democrats made a filled Supreme Court necessary. Democrats around the country—like Joe Biden and Gavin Newsom—eerily stated that Covid-19 was an opportunity to implement change on various issues: climate change, the economy, etc. In a time when our nation needed some normalcy, our electoral process has been radically uprooted.

Netflix Cuties is Worse than We Feared

Most shockingly, is the number of people willing to defend it. There’s a huge disconnect between the Rotten Tomatoes critic and audience score. Some critics are simply happy that “right-wingers” are triggered by child pornography, but why is protecting children and scolding pedophilia a one-sided issue?

Rick Snyder's Endorsement of Biden Makes Him a Disappointing Nerd

The president laughingly said Governor Snyder could take a picture with him, even though he didn’t endorse him. At home, I shook my head and dismissively laughed at Trump’s petty bone. I’m guessing it cut a little deeper for the former governor.

BLM doesn’t care about “all” black lives, such as children killed in the womb or victims of black on black crime. They don’t even care about black lives in general. They only care about the context of how blacks are killed: by the hands of police.

Trump Supporting Pastor's Church is Vandalized

Pastor Greg Locke

Pastor Greg Locke

Two weeks ago, my sister and I visited Tennessee on a little bit of business. Seeing that we’re good Christian girls, we had to find a church to visit on Sunday. “Well, I’ve been interested in visiting Pastor Greg Locke’s church.”

My sister hadn’t heard of him before, but something felt right about it. We prayed, and we immediately left our house to drive 8.5 hours to Tennessee, so we could make it to church in the morning.

As we pulled up on the corner of Global Bible Vision Church, friendly staff waved us down and directed us to where we could park. They were having so many guests come in, parking and seating was becoming an issue. A friendly woman greeted us as we came inside, and she invited us to sit next to her. We chatted a little bit, and she gave us an introduction to Pastor Locke.

He was incredibly friendly, fiery, obviously open about his political biases, and very knowledgeable in the word.

I became aware of Pastor Locke after a viral rant on Facebook, telling pastors they needed to open their churches. His church was among the few that never closed down, and he was glad to hear that our ministry was the same.

Even though I hadn’t missed a day of live service since the pandemic began, it was refreshing to be around a larger congregation worshiping together. Even more remarkable was perhaps a fourth of the people in attendance were from out of state. One woman flew from California just to be there.

Pastor Locke made a breaking news announcement: Roger Stone was coming to the church at the end of the month—not to talk politics—to talk about how he recommitted his life to Christ. From then on, Pastor Locke has been a magnet for the media. So, is it any wonder what happened today?

Around 9am CT, Pastor Locke reported on Instagram that his church has been vandalized.

Just got word from our staff that our building, tent, chairs, church sign and my pulpit were all vandalized last night. Headed there now. Police are on the way. SERVICE WILL NOT BE STOPPED. See y’all at 10:30.
— Pastor Greg Locke via Instagram

Pastor Locke has said they’ve received so many threats, there’s no telling who could have vandalized the property, but Pastor Locke did say, “But it really puts a fire in my belly.”

Persecution certainly isn’t new, and it’s something Jesus Christ prepared his disciples to face. Persecution isn’t anything a Christian readily wants to face, but it does strengthen the body of Christ. Profanities and other painted crude remarks isn’t anywhere near the degree of what Christians outside of the United States face, but it’ll make Global Vision and their national supporters, more fired up, nonetheless. Pastor Locke announced they’d still be having service this morning, whether it’s under a graffiti covered tent or not.

All eyes will be on Global Bible Vision Church next week when Roger Stone, who was convicted and pardoned by President Trump in July, comes to testify about how Jesus Christ is transforming his life.

I pray it will be a message of grace, forgiveness, and redemption. That’s what America needs right now.

I’m baffled by all the talk about Joe Biden being a nice guy. I can understand some people saying “likable.” There are likable villains on TV shows and movies. I hope I’ve written a few myself. But “nice?”
