Every nation needs one now and then, just to clear the air. According to Jefferson, at any rate, we’re long overdue for another.
Party of Assassins
The latest Trump assassin wasn’t a radical. He was a Democrat.There was nothing radical about Cole Tomas Allen: the attempted White House Correspondents’ Dinner assassin. Allen’s manifesto reads a lot like that of the previous three-named assassin Ryan Wesley Routh who was stalking President Trump at a golf game.
Apart from the explicit murder plots, there is nothing in Routh’s ‘Dear World’ letter and Allen’s manifesto that you wouldn’t find in the Washington Post, a Jimmy Kimmel or Stephen Colbert monologue or a rant by a Democrat member of Congress. Routh was obsessed with Iran and Ukraine, sounding like Thomas Friedman when he complained that Trump had “ended relations with Iran like a child and now the Middle East has unraveled.”
Allen offered even more generic foreign policy criticisms that seemed plucked from network newscasts and fake news coverage of Trump’s campaign against illegal alien criminals, drug cartels, Islamic terrorists in Iran and the cutoff of funds to USAID, ranting about being (“raped in a detention camp”, “fisherman executed without trial” “schoolkid blown up” or “a child starved”).
Did Allen really care about events in Iran or Latin America? Could he even tell them apart?
Rather than Marxism, Routh and Allen offered tepid shopworn liberalism as their justification for murder, “U.S presidents must at bare minimum embody the moral fabric that is America and be kind, caring and selfless and always stand for humanity” and “the United States of America are ruled by the law, not by any one or several people. In so far as representatives and judges do not follow the law, no one is required to yield them anything so unlawfully ordered.”
This is the stuff of a Ken Burns op-ed and it shows that both men were more influenced by liberal Trump Derangement Syndrome media products than by Antifa or radical groups.
Allen slurs President Trump as a “pedophile, rapist and traitor”. This line is so commonplace in liberal circles that you can find it all across Bluesky, where the attempted assassin had an account, sold on t-shirts and popping up in op-eds. Social media personalities, talk show hosts and members of Congress have used similar rhetoric to refer to the 47th president.
There’s not much of a political critique. Just a grab bag of lines from MSNBC.
As I’ve said so many times I’m even beginning to bore myself: if Goosesteppin’ Leftists want another Civil War, then Real Americans ought to see to it that they get one…all they want of it, and then some. Because, as stipulated in Mike’s Iron Law #873: They will NOT stop. They will NEVER stop. They will have to BE stopped.
One of these next times, they’re going to get Trump at last. The morning after they do, NYC, Chitcago, SF, and LA ought all to be on fire. By sundown that same evening, battered and/or hacked Leftard corpses should be strewn about so thickly they clog the streets of every city, town, and hamlet across the FUSA.

These guys never think. What happens if Trump is gone?
You get JD Vance, who is easily 100 times smarter. So you get a bloodbath, and then someone in charge that knows what to do and how to do it.
Jefferson’s line makes sense. I like Clemeza’s line from the Godfather – “These things gotta happen every so often. Clears out the bad blood”
I like JD but he’s not smarter than Trump. Perhaps equally as savvy.
But definitely not smarter.
Trump is without question the smartest president in history. “Smart” comes in more than one shade. Trumps “shade” is the right color to fix this country and that is the important shade.
Are you sure about that? Aren’t you forgetting about Jimmy Carter, the smartest man ever to be President? He was a nukular scientist, you know. And what about Bill Clinton, the smartest man ever to be President? He was a Rhodes scholar, you know.
Yes, I’m sure.
Carter was actually intelligent, Clinton is not. Carter is a commie like clinton, and both would sell out the country for differing reasons.
🙂
BJ was intelligent and a helluva politician.
He was evil and a sociopath.
His wife is stupid, brutal, evil and a sociopath but 1/10th the politician that BJ was.
Carter wasn’t as smart as BJ, but he probably would put 0 and Biteme and probably all the other Dems to shame in the smarts department.
Carter could do mathematical calculations and engineering at a high level. That requires intelligence and education. Blowjob couldn’t calculate his way out of a wet paper bag. No contest.
Being a “good” politician is like being a good lawyer – it requires practice at lying.
Washington? Jefferson? Even Madison and Adams?
Smartest in a 100 years perhaps.
The four of those were certainly inteeligent individuals, but where they fall on the IQ scale is a mystery. They did not have the level of education a modern intelligent man has and that “Trumps” them IMO.
A modern intelligent man studies Jefferson and Washington as well as Locke and Franklin and Adam Smith. Their insights have lasted 250 years+
Also should have added Monroe in there as it is the foundation to the Donroe Doctrine.
Unfortunately we won’t see what Trump legacy 250 years from now will be.
Speak for yourself. There’s a fair chance I’ll still be around.
Like I keep saying, I don’t know for sure that I’m immortal or a god, but I don’t know for sure that I’m not, either.
“I don’t know for sure that…”
I do 🙂
“A modern intelligent man studies Jefferson and Washington as well as Locke and Franklin and Adam Smith. ”
Of course. I have myself. Trump has, clearly. If you are not studying Trump as well, then you will be less intelligent than those that do.
I’ve often said that the smartest men in history were the founders. History has yet to be written regarding Trump…
