CNN Commentator Nails Trump's 'Super Power'

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 12/14/2024 5:09:57 AM

President-elect Donald J. Trump is Time’s Person of the Year. CNN’s Scott Jennings explained why that’s the case while delving into the superpower that the 47th president of the United States holds: the man is the destroyer of narratives. Trump has been slapped with over 100 criminal charges, had two attempts on his life, a Justice Department hell-bent on throwing him in jail, and endured a sustained media smear campaign for years. He still won the 2024 election. We’ve all heard the same chorus from the liberal media: The hush money case is going to take down Donald Trump, or Kamala Harris is the greatest candidate

I think Trump's superpower is that others HATE him, mostly because he speaks out against their carefully constructed fakery. Because what they do is all smoke and mirrors, they cannot tolerate any challenges to their dogma. Trump is a change agent and speaks to his purposes and THAT leads to conversations that the other side simply cannot allow to stand. But Trump will not shut up. Thus the HATE. Now that triggers all sorts of problems for those that HATE Trump. The first is overreach. They go from plausible challenges to "Trump is Hitler". When all their attacks are at an extreme end of the spectrum, they rapidly become unbelievable. All Trump has to do now is say "Fake News" and their narrative collapses, partly because their narratives are so poorly constructed due to their angst and urgency. But also because his attackers have been almost universally exposed to be liars, hacks, and cheaters often carrying out illegal actions. By now, Trump, who is actually a reasonable and careful person, pushing boundaries but not ignoring them, is actually immunized against most of the attacks. First, many of the sources of the attacks are immediately discredited because of who they are. The Slimes, WaaPoo, MSWeNoSee, and ClosingNowNews are immediately laughed at and ignored. Second, Trump doesn't express any of the characteristics of what they accuse him of. Can you imagine Hitler working at McDonalds, riding in a garbage truck, or doing the Trump dance? Trump is joyful and fun. This additionally infuriates his haters. He shouldn't be ALLOWED to be happy. Rinse and repeat. And the haters cannot stop themselves.

New Jersey-based attorney Alina Habba hit the nation’s radar back in 2021, becoming President-elect Trump's fierce legal defender and then spokeswoman as he battled an onslaught of legal cases and criminal charges ahead of his decisive win against Vice President Kamala Harris last month. Now, Habba is readying to take on a new role: counselor to the president under Trump's second administration. "Alina has been a tireless advocate for Justice, a fierce Defender of the Rule of Law, and an invaluable Advisor to my Campaign and Transition Team," Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social last week, announcing her new role.

In a bold and unprecedented move, President-elect Donald Trump has extended invitations to a range of global leaders, including China's President Xi Jinping, to attend his upcoming inauguration. This decision, especially considering an expected trade war, reflects Trump's longstanding commitment to fostering international relationships and highlights his belief in the importance of diplomacy and open dialogue with key figures on the world stage. The invitations, especially to rival leaders, show that Trump is signaling his intent to maintain a firm foreign policy and prioritize American interests while engaging with international counterparts.

Last month, in November 2024, Texas State Board of Education (SBOE) narrowly approved an optional curriculum that would allow stories from the Bible to be taught to K-5 elementary school children. Even though three Republicans joined the board’s four Democratic members to reject the course of study, the SBOE accepted the Bluebonnet reading curriculum in an 8-7 vote. According to a May 2024 Texas Education Agency (TEA) press release, the reading lessons use a classical education model and include not only Bible-infused courses, but also teach students about art, history, culture, science, and technology. School districts who decide to use the material will receive up to $60 per student

Lindsey Kornick at Fox News reports former CNN host Don Lemon insulted Time magazine as a "joke" after they felt forced to choose President-elect Donald Trump as their Person of the Year. Lemon hosted a TikTok Live segment where he sounded like he was still hosting at CNN, lamenting that Time was taking a stand against democracy....by sadly acknowledging that Trump solidly won an election, despite every lefty claiming he would end democracy. How quickly Lemon forgets! Time is the magazine who touted "The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election." They touted how the Left "fortified" democracy against Trump.

Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that his agency was “limited” in its authority to shoot down drones. Mayorkas said, “There are thousands of drones flown every day in the United States, recreational drones, commercial drones. That is the reality, and in September of 2023, the Federal Aviation Administration, the FAA, changed the rules so that drones could fly at night, and that may be one of the reasons why now people are seeing more drones than they did before, especially from dawn to dusk. So that is the reality, but I want to assure the American public that we are on it.

A study conducted by parental rights organization Parents Defending Education (PDE) found that President Joe Biden’s Department of Education spent at least $1 billion on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives since 2021. Researchers found that $490 million was spent on DEI hiring efforts, $343 million on DEI programming and $170 million on DEI-related mental health resources. Key takeaways from the study include the fact that multiple Education Department grants “feature programming that advances race-based teacher recruiting, hiring, and training, including the use of race-based affinity groups.”
