Home Again: Trump 2.0 at 30 Days
As talk show host Michael Berry said in a recent broadcast “These are the good old days!” We are living through the best of times; every day is better than the next. Those of us still alive in 20 or 30 years will remember these moments, this conservative honeymoon of hope and change, as the time when it all began.

In an October 5th, CNN interview, Clinton claimed Trump supporters are part of a MAGA cult and should be deprogrammed, stating “that at some point…
Redefining The Swamp
President Trump has often talked about draining the swamp in reference to extricating Washington of its slimy life forms: career politicians, bureaucrats and entrenched special interests. The symbolism here is obvious, let the water out of the swamp and all of its slithering denizens will disappear.
