The Mandate For What?

You may remember five election cycles ago that  after a lopsided blowout, a newly minted President  sat in a meeting with leaders from Congress and  snarkily retorted to the aging U.S. Senator that he  had just defeated, “Yes John, (McCain), but there  was an election, and I won.”

With Cameras rolling, it was the first of many actions seen as “punching down” for the candidate who had pledged to “fundamentally transform”  America.  

That hubris, combined with his astounding attempts at remaking the values of America, gave birth to the Tea Party, which has since morphed into the America 1st movement.  

With the re-election this week of President Donald  Trump, the American electorate has for twelve  years now expressed utter contempt for whatever 

that transformation was supposedly about. And with the thorough defeat of Obamaism for a third cycle in a row, the hope is that Obama’s not-so-soft love of big government-styled, deeply centralized Marxism is gone for good.  

One could argue that the entire Democrat machinery is in abject failure. The “brands” of  Obama, Clinton, Biden, and, thankfully, Harris have been repudiated by the majority of Americans, all the swing states, and 312 electoral votes.  

So now what?  

Americans have to get to work. There is an overflowing invasion that has not been stopped in four years. It’s not just sufficient to have the new migrant caravans turning around. Mexico needs to cooperate. Border Patrol needs bolstering, and deportations of incredibly violent criminal aliens must be carried out.  

On the international stage, we’ve never needed more direct intervention. It’s certainly 

encouraging that Putin, Zellensky, and Europe all seem to respond favorably to U.S. interests.  Ultimately, American energy needs to begin to flow so that the Mullahs in Iran and tyrants like  Putin are not just kept in check but rendered incapable of further mess-making. Trump can do this with leverage in ways no other modern-era leader has imagined, and it will work.

Technologically speaking, the Trump administration also needs to take steps to bolster our national defense capacity in cockpits and boats, but we also need to prepare for  Q-day.  

Quantum computing is here. Large, massive computing capacities are measured in qubits and limitless computing power cuts through computer systems built in the determinist computer world like butter.  Because AI cannot be exhausted, quantum computing renders encryption keys useless. Think about how that impacts our national  defense, private business markets, and every 

personal secret stored on every personal device connected to the web. Bad actors are chasing Q day (a day of unknown but soon-to-come reality)  so that they can destroy our national security,  prosperous economy, and personal reputations.  This issue is as big a national threat as we’ve ever faced, and the Trump administration needs to hit the ground ahead of the curve and punch through the obstacles to ensure solutions.  

On the home front, he has to undo Obama-era radical commitment to sexual anarchy. The military shouldn’t be a place where people who want sex-change surgeries just get one for free. Boys shouldn’t be with our daughters in our high school and college showers. And no woman should ever have to lose out on a national record ever again simply because she tied a mediocre male in a women’s sport and the NCAA  didn’t have the necessary fortitude to do what was right.

Produce our own energy. Incentivize the heck out of entrepreneurs, small business owners, and deregulate every wicked job-killing “green new”  scam control that Obama, Harris, and AOC have thrust upon us.  

The list is long. There is much that must be done.  But for the first time since Reagan’s re-election in  1984, no president has had a more significant mandate to fix what was broken.  

And since no President in American history has ever delivered on more promises than President  Trump did in his first term, America can be reassured that he will do the same again this time.  

The mandate to fix America and to elevate her again to being that shining symbol of hope for the world is why he was born, and he should do it as energetically and quickly as possible.  

It’s what we’ve hired him to do!
