Robert Spencer: Why Is Donald Trump Doing This?

Mar 20, 2017 4:04 pm By Robert Spencer

He didn’t have to subject himself to this abuse. My latest at The Geller Report:

I have never met Donald Trump, and probably never will, but I have known him all my life. He was always part of the media landscape: the billionaire playboy, the scandals, Marla Maples, the bankruptcy, the comic grandiosity, the glamour – but ultimately, he seemed trivial. A rich man enjoying his riches. He didn’t have anything to do with me, or with the problems facing the nation and the free world that I was concerned about. But now, he is President of the United States, and the subject of a relentless vilification campaign from the Left, and the exponent of policies that the nation must adopt if it is simply to survive, and it is useful to step back and reflect on why Donald Trump has chosen this path.

In a wide-ranging 2004 interview in Playboy magazine, Trump demonstrates that his thinking has evolved a great deal since then: he calls John Kerry “a great guy…a very smart guy…highly underestimated.” But he also manifests the perceptiveness and acumen that has taken him this far, and that his detractors have never acknowledged. Of Iraq he says: “No way will there be a normal democratic government in that country, in my opinion. The same with Afghanistan. If anybody thinks Afghanistan will become a normal, wonderful democratic country where everybody walks in on a Tuesday and votes, it’s not going to happen.”

Indeed. And when asked if he thinks that Trump Tower and the other buildings that bear his name will still bear that name in 100 years, he answers: “No, I don’t think so…I don’t think any building will be here—and unless we have some very smart people ruling it, the world will not be the same place in a hundred years. The weapons are too powerful, too strong. Access to the weapons is getting too easy, so I think the landscape we’re looking at will not be the same unless we get smart people in office quickly….I know life is fragile, and if the world looks like this a hundred years from now, we’ll either be very lucky or have found unbelievably good leaders somewhere down the line.”

Finding “unbelievably good leaders” has been a preoccupation of Donald Trump for far longer than that. In a 1990 Playboy interview, he says: “I like George Bush very much and support him and always will. But I disagree with him when he talks of a kinder, gentler America. I think if this country gets any kinder or gentler, it’s literally going to cease to exist.” George H. W. Bush was not an “unbelievably good leader” by anyone’s standard, and even then Trump was being asked what he would do if he were President of the United States. After delineating some of the things he would do as President, Trump is asked: “Wait. If you believe that the public shares these views, and that you could do the job, why not consider running for President?” He answers: “I’d do the job as well as or better than anyone else. It’s my hope that George Bush can do a great job.”

The interviewer persists: “You categorically don’t want to be President?” Trump answers: “I don’t want to be President. I’m one hundred percent sure. I’d change my mind only if I saw this country continue to go down the tubes.”

And here we are. Twenty-seven years later, the country has continued to go down the tubes, and Donald Trump is President of the United States. He didn’t have to do this. He is 70 years old, he is extraordinarily rich, and he could have lived a comfortable old age, hosting The Apprentice and enjoying the fruits of his labors at Mar-a-Lago. Instead, he has entered the political arena and become the object of the Left’s hatred and vilification on a scale that is shocking and unprecedented. I remember, even when I was a young Leftist in the early 1980s, being shocked at the vitriol that my comrades directed at Ronald Reagan. I didn’t like the man at the time, and I opposed his policies, but I didn’t have the vicious hatred for him that so many others did.

Yet that hatred was a mailed valentine compared to the frenzied rage that the Left is now directing toward Donald Trump. They vilify him, they vilify his wife and son, they fantasize about assassinating him, and maybe they eventually will – and why? Because he “saw this country continue to go down the tubes,” and determined to give up his life of comfort and ease and do something to turn this nation around. Donald Trump has proven himself to be, above all things, a patriot, a man who loves this nation enough to sacrifice himself for it, just as a soldier gives his life for the nation so that our children, and our children’s children, can live free.

He is the unlikeliest of men to have chosen to do this. But he has done it. And now he is suffering the relentless slings and arrows of the anti-American Leftists who are determined to destroy him for doing it. Any remaining patriots, whatever they think of the President of the United States, should recognize that this is happening, and understand that they owe a debt of gratitude to Donald Trump for being willing to make this sacrifice. He didn’t have to do it. He could have enjoyed a comfortable old age while America went down the tubes. Most of his former colleagues and associates are doing just that, while he struggles in Washington to turn things around, against an entrenched Leftist establishment that determined not to relinquish power.

But now America has a shot at survival as a free nation, and it is due in large part to Donald Trump. Few of us can say we have made a comparable sacrifice.

    Excellent article, Robert. I agree that we are extraordinarily blessed to have Donald Trump as our President. He is a hero for many of us, and it feels like he is our last hope for an America that remains free and sovereign. I pray for him and his safety, and that he knows that millions of us — and not just in America — support him.

    Who ever would have thought Donald Trump would be our President? Who ever would have realized that he is the only man that could have taken all this on? I am very, very grateful for him.

      Trump deserves credit for the good that he does, but he is hardly the best man for job.

      We could have had a Reagan — in substance, if not in style — but we’re stuck with a Democrat who happens to recognize that there’s something wrong with Islam.

        If Trump were a Democrat then are the members of that Party so enraged and apoplectic at him being POTUS? Apparently his populism–he refers to the WH as the “People’s House– threatens the very elitist and extreme liberalism that permeates U.S. society.

        There is also a visceral rage among liberals that Hillary Clinton did not become the “first woman President of the U.S.”–despite her long rap sheet of flaws and misconduct.

          That, there are Democrats and Republicans, it’s in name only, they are all asleep
          at the wheel. No servant leadership there, none at all.

          Those living elsewhere may not know what was at stake, when Americans had to
          elected Donald Trump to be the next President.

          What was at stake was the appointment of Supreme Court Justices, a failed economy with a 20 trillion dollar debt, people opening their mail to find Obamacare bills doubling and tripling, the prospect of an open border policy that would cause America to cease to be a country, corruption on a frightening scale, the threat of a clamp-down on all freedom, the promotion of lifestyles contrary to the whole, a media in bed with one party and the prospect of near complete loss of free speech, and so much more, that it was past time to act.

          While all this was looming over the country with a Clinton victory, Mr. Trump did offer
          to shake things-up.

          Multiple millions have chosen this man, who is now the President, and everyone should
          support him, for the sake of hope, in surviving what lies immediately ahead, for us all.

          Mr. Trump does want to help this Country, that is certain.

          Thank you Mr. Spencer for this article, a kind tribute, to a noble effort.

      You have to support him.

      Use Twitter, use emails, and use plain old stamped-signed-and-sealed letters, directed to the White House.

      Keep it short and sharp.

      Insist that you want a stop to Muslim immigration, period, because… Got Muslims? Got jIhad.

      Insist that the House of Saud is the Enemy, *as well as* Islamic Iran. NO Islamic entity is to be trusted, whether state or non-state, individual or organisation, because… Treaty of Hudaybiyya, and al-wala wa al-bara.

      Recommend Raymond Ibrahim as a guide to mohammedan ‘deal-making’ with Infidels.

      The only thing the Ummah respects is the hammer, brought down hard and repeatedly; and that is because at the core of Islam is the Bully, deified – brute Force. This isn’t a random observation, it’s all about the ideology, the system that Islam is. NO other human system, except Nazism which was a cheap rip-off/ imitation of Islam, gets anywhere near it.

      Therefore America, being the strongest *free* Infidel country, must both BE and ACT LIKE ‘the strong horse’.

      And I’d advise every single american jihadwatcher here posting or lurking to .. .join ACT for America if you haven’t already. Because they are supporting the President. Brigitte Gabriel *knows* how high the stakes are, because she lived it, in Lebanon; she saw what happens when Muslims take over, as they did, in Lebanon, once they got the numbers… thanks to a foolishly-accepted influx of “palestinian’ Arab Muslims, which tipped the demographics (previously tilted, just, in favour of the Maronites and Druze) just far enough in Islam’s favour. The aim should be to have 1/ MORE ACT for America members than there are Muslims in America! and 2/ MORE ACT for America local chapters, than there are *mosques* in America.

      The Muslims are organised. The Muslim Brotherhood project document tellls you that.

      Fine: then the *Infidels* have to be a lot more organised, too, and fast!

      Support Mr Spencer’s website, and also the ‘Citizen Warrior’ website, which is full of helpful tips on how to increase the number of Islamoaware citizens.

      And keep an eye open for any up-and-coming politicians with potential; *especially* Allen West; because… Trump is 70.

      You need to be thinking about who could come after him… and who could come after *that*.

      • Pong says

        Mar 21, 2017 at 5:24 pm

        Allen West is a good choice. He will be the real first black president, unlike that mulatto,affirmative action communist with no connection to the history of american blacks. He has military and political experience and will be an excellent president. Many younger people in Trump administration will continue to work and he will have very experienced team.

      If this is the “real” Nonie Darwish, I finally get to say, how I am so grateful for your videos, the books you have written, the speeches and presentations to inform, which is very brave. I am concerned for your safety as this country is experiencing a hijra, and the current resistance from the left to allow facts to be known by restricting speech and the potential for protests from the uninformed when not following the command to be silent about the doctrine and the agenda. Thank you from my heart.

    A man’s actual character is known not only by who he has as friends but also by who he has as enemies .Therefore this helps explain why the jihadists, the leftists, as the ACLU, the Marxists, the anarchists and the jihadists all hate for President Trump with a passion . This is strong evidence that Donald Trump is the right man to be President of this nation. . In other words, those all those characters just mention terrible detest Mr. Trump not only serves as a good compliment to him but this also reveals that Donald Trump must be an all American patriot..

  7. jack Beauregard says

    Mar 20, 2017 at 4:47 pm

    The left fears a man like Trump. He has come to the realization that most of his life has already in the rear view mirror, but his children, and especially his grandchildren, have their lives ahead of them. Making my own presumption, it appears that Mr. Trump is working to preserve what is true and noble and right so that those behind him may not have to live in a world like communist China or one dominated by muslims. He’s seen the future, and right now it isn’t pretty.

    Trump getting elected – is like the universe stepped in and stopped this lot!!

    It’s like an idea whose time has come!

    What I like about Trump is what he ran on, largely is what he believed. And think that the attacks actually place him in a stronger position.

    Usually when people are running for elected office – their whole emphasis is on putting on a perfect persona. Once elected they might be more willing to compromise on their own positions, to keep up appearances. It all becomes focused on image.

    For example, Merkel has taken on a million or so migrants – only a small portion are actual refugees. Despite of the enormous chaos this has caused, she’s being commanded. Trump on the other hand is holding to his beliefs. That mass immigration, particularly from Islamic regions could lead to the same problems Europe has been facing. Not only today, in generations to come.

    But because Trump is already so maligned, it is more difficult to for him to be pressured into letting go of his positions, for the sake of protecting his image.

    Most don’t know that Germany already had in place – a form of extreme vetting, a test for immigrants from the Muslim world and that Merkel was the first in Europe to declare multiculturalism was dead. Clearly she has abandoned her position. Likely through the same pressure that would also be applied on Trump.

    Calling him every name in the book – I think says to him, double down. ‘What have I got to lose!’

    ::

    Here’s Trump 2010 on the 9-11 Mosque – on the David Letterman Show:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zs9OJZI_jJ8

    Dave Letterman tries his best to get him to take the politically correct route – but Trump keeps coming back round to his position. Trump also says, as soon as we leave Iraq, there’s going to be an anti-American force and a few years later, little did we know he’d be proved right.

    ::

    For me during the campaign – his reading ‘The Snake’ was the most surreal. It speaks to human nature – we see people in need and want to help – but then there is the very real possibility of that bite. The bite, is the calls for sharia law, either through social or political pressure or through violence, intimidation or threat. When we say you are free to practise your religion – in Islam it is understood as you are free to impose your religious-political system on others.

    The Snake – Trump
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhqneAhyJkI

    So glad Trump is at the helm. We need at least one free country in this world.

    Just look at the countries that have been taken over by Islam. If Islamic rule is all they claim – let Islam build the Islamic world with it. I forgot, it’s only ever been built up, through conquest of wealthier nations.

    Yes, we have our Thomas More, not a perfect copy, but willing.

    The Left rants about about Trump’s long past locker room banter, with the boys who tell, while the liberals currently kill their unborn children and bask in the vulgarity of Amy Shumer. Movie stars adopt orphans of the world and turn them into US-hating internationalists while their Hollywood gurus call for the overthrow of elected government and sound principles. Industrialists bring in foreign workers so the existing employees can train them before being fired. It’s too sickening to go on..

    Yes, the US was going down the drain, while both the parasitic left and too many industrialists created a perfect storm of dissipation, dissolution, and degeneration to wring the last ounce of wealth and pleasure before the orgy implodes.

    Trump is the man of the hour and the only leader on the close horizon that actually leads. Whether he does or does not survive the Presidency, we owe Donald Trump a debt of gratitude for making both the left and lazy portions of the GOP realize that it will never again be laissez-faire as usual.

    Eight (8) years and no consolidated health plan? Shame. It’s an unwise politician who thinks Trump’s election is a GOP victory and not the people’s voice. And if the GOP thinks it can hide away or oppose controls on immigration….

    We are ready to help. Unlike past office-tenders, please ask for specific things that we can “do for our country” while the left demands more from the country. Example is the best teacher.

    Despite his many flaws and failings I agree – Trump is a patriot. His willingness to state the (obvious) threat from Islam when almost all others are falling over themselves to appease, deny and excuse it is very refreshing and with luck can change some minds.

    The plotting and fulminations of the Left now exceed the opposition of the Republicans to Obama, with considerably more calls for violence. This is revealing the undercurrent of Fascism Lite among those who view themselves as holding the ultimate truths.

    There are two things I came across on the internets.

    The first was a comment placed at the blog of a young Islamoaware – recent Uni graduate btw, he ‘woke up’ because of the atrocious behaviour of Muslim fellow studfents – UK bloke, “Defend the Modern World”.

    It was when the US election campaign was just getting under way. It purported to be from someone who had been in the same class as Donald Trump when he was in the Cadets.

    https://defendthemodernworld.wordpress.com/2016/03/07/the-case-for-trump/

    ‘NEWYAWKER

    ‘I am, as of now, staying apolitical, as difficult as that may be. However, I did want to share a posting on Facebook of a letter written [or purported to have been written] by Trump’s military schoolmate, Peter Ticktin.

    ‘Here it is in its entirety:
    Peter Ticktin
    March 4 at 8:40pm ·
    “VOTE AS YOU WISH, AND LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT TRUMP – – A personal note from Peter Ticktin who knows the guy from high school:

    ‘As a law firm, we at The Ticktin Law Group do not like to get involved in politics. As soon as we endorse one side, we risk alienating everyone on the other side. Also, our lawyers and staff are, themselves, on both sides. Politics is not our game. However, Justice is!

    ‘If you saw a guy get publicly smeared, and you knew him well from the days you were friends and seniors together in high school, if you knew him to be a decent and honest man, would you want to say something? This is why I need to share what I know.

    ‘I was aghast at watching last night’s debate. It was a set-up. The moderators, Cruz, and Rubio were all like little alligators trying to take a bite out of Trump. Yes, Donald Trump has had some failures, but he has been exceedingly successful. None of this came out. Instead, there was a general attack. Rubio simply makes up lies. He pretends that Trump has small hands and makes fun of him for something which isn’t even real. He pretends that Donald wets his pants, and makes fun of him, as though it was true, and then he calls Donald Trump a “Bully.”

    ‘I am not suggesting that you should vote or not vote for anyone. I just need to defend a former friend who is being smeared.

    ‘Like Donald Trump, I attended New York Military Academy (“NYMA”) for high school.

    ‘In fact, in our senior year, together, Donald was my captain, and I was his 1st Platoon Sergeant.

    ‘I sometimes joke that I ran his first company for him, Company “A.”

    ‘People don’t really change much from the ages of 17 and 18, and I know this guy.

    ‘I know him to be a good decent guy. We lived and breathed an Honor Code in those years. It wasn’t just a rule. It was our way of life. Neither Donald, nor any other cadet who graduated with us would ever lie, cheat, or steal from a fellow cadet. These values became irreversibly intertwined in the fabric of our personalities, of who we are.

    ‘Of the 99 guys (no girls in those days) in our class, there is not one who I know who has a bad word to say about Donald Trump.

    ‘Think of it. With all the jealousies which arise in high school and thereafter, with all the potential envy, not one of us has anything other than positive memories of this man.

    ‘How could we? He was an “A” student, a top athlete, and as a leader, he was highly respected. We never feared him, yet we never wanted to disappoint him. He had our respect. He was never a bigot in any way, shape or form. He only hates those who hate. Of course he denounces the KKK.

    ‘As to the discussion with the New York Times, it is his choice to release the ‘off the record’ remarks. However, if he does, it opens the door for all political opposition to make that demand for everyone, and that means that our press will never get those ‘off the record’ remarks which help them to understand the realities of the campaign.

    ‘Moreover, the idea that Donald Trump confessed some alternate theory of his position is preposterous.

    ‘Can anyone believe that all those NY Times reporters are walking around knowing some deep dark nasty secret about a guy who is seeking an endorsement?

    ‘The Republican establishment is afraid of Donald Trump. Why? They are afraid that he will lose to Hillary. They don’t hate Donald. They hate her. They are so fearful that they fail to see that by expanding the base of voters for Trump, he is more likely to win.

    ‘Watching the chorus of whiners, decriers, denigrators, and self-righteous put-down experts from so many directions, from Mit Romney, to Megyn Kelly, Little Mario, it has to make you wonder.

    ‘Why? Why are so many people so angry with Donald Trump, that they are lying, name calling, ridiculing, and demeaning him as they do. Either they are afraid, or they know him to be evil.

    ‘This is why I feel the need to speak out at this time. I know this man. He is a lot of things, but he is not evil.

    ‘He is a decent honest guy who loves this country, and who is willing to sacrifice so much of what is left of his life, because he knows that this country needs to be fixed, and that it is going to require someone who can do the job. He just doesn’t see anything around him other than political hacks, so he is willing to take this huge responsibility.

    ‘I’m not saying that he is the only one who can do the job. My point is simply as to his motivation and his goodness.

    ‘This next decade is going to be one of major changes. We all see the climate changing, and the world food supply is getting lower. Our fish stock around the world is running low.

    ‘Oil prices will cause countries to fail.

    ‘The Middle East is beyond repair, and we have become weak and ineffective around the world.

    ‘Donald Trump sees the issues and knows that he can assemble leaders who would have the best chance of fixing things. This is why he is running. He does not need it for his own aggrandizement. He doesn’t need another big jet or to take up residence in the White House.

    ‘He just wants things to be fixed, and he knows that the politicians won’t fix anything.

    ‘I knew Donald Trump and was close to him in our senior year in high school. I just want you to know that there is nothing to fear from him. His character is as good as it gets. He is a patriot, taking on a heroic task, and being thanked by massive abuse.
    ‘If you want to see a true reflection of a man, look at his children. Need I say more?”

    Now, whether that is genuine or not, I do not know. But it was.. interesting. And I dont’ think it got much publicity.

    • dumbledoresarmy says

      But the other thing was even *more* interesting.

      It was a republication of an interview that had been done with Trump **during the 1980s**, that is, in 1987, waaaay back, before even the changes of 1990.

      It was brought to my attention by one Rebecca Bynum, whom the oldest ‘regulars’ at this forum may recall; who has some kind of association with Trump’s team.

      She put up the link at “New English Review”.

      http://www.newenglishreview.org/blog_direct_link.cfm/blog_id/63778/Trump%2Don%2Dthe%2DThreat%2Dof%2DNuclear%2DProliferation%2Din%2D1987

      Trump on the Threat of Nuclear Proliferation in 1987

      Ron Rosenbaum is reprinting his interesting 1987 interview at Slate.

      Posted on 03/06/2016 5:22 AM by Rebecca Bynum

      I went to the link and read the lot. Really, really, really interesting stuff; and the key is the bit about Gaddafi’s American pilot – who quit, because working for Gaddafi was a nightmare and then… went and got a job with Trump, who *listened* to him and *believed* him when he (the pilot) told Trump what it was like working for your average mad-as-a-cut-snake Mohammedan despot, in the dar al Islam.

      Trump put *that* bit of information together with what his MIT-employed physicist Uncle had been warning him about – the ‘cheapening’ and spread of nuke tech, and the high likelihood of its getting into the hands of rogue actors – and… it put the wind up him, well and truly. (His mother was a Scotswoman from the Isles. There is such a thing as Second Sight).

      here’s the link to that reprint of the 1987 article.

      http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/the_spectator/2016/03/trump_s_nuclear_experience_advice_for_reagan_in_1987.single.html

      Ron Rosenbaum – “Trump’s Nuclear Experience”.

      “The text below was first published in Manhattan, inc., in 1987, and later collected in Manhattan Passion, under the headline “Trump: The Ultimate Deal—In which we see the world through the eyes of Qaddafi’s pilot.””

      And so, from waaay back in 1987:

      “…It was his uncle, Trump tells me, who got him started thinking about The Subject.
      “He told me something a few years ago,” Trump recalls. “He told me, ‘You don’t realize how simple nuclear technology is becoming.’ That’s scary. He said it used to be that only a few brains in the world understood it and now you have a situation where thousands and thousands of brains can easily understand it, and it’s becoming easier, and someday it’ll be like making a bomb in the basement of your house. And that’s a very frightening statement coming from a man who’s totally versed in it.”…”.

      “…Trump’s fears, which center on a Third World madman getting the bomb. Like Qaddafi.
      Particularly Qaddafi.
      ‘Because Trump’s got inside information on the character of the Libyan dictator. From Qaddafi’s pilot.
      “I have a pilot who works for me who used to be Qaddafi’s pilot,” Trump is telling me as we head through the crowds on Fifth Avenue in the direction of “21.” “He’s a highly trained American pilot. And I asked him, ‘What kind of guy is Qaddafi?’ And he told me, ‘Mr. Trump, you’ve never seen a man like this. This man would get onto his plane, and he’d slap his subordinates in the face. A total schizo.’ ”

      ‘The pilot quit Qaddafi, Trump says. “He was being paid a fortune—he’s a great pilot—but he said, ‘I couldn’t stand it. He’d get into the plane, he’d scream, shout, slap people. He was crazy. You never knew. Hair-trigger.’ ”

      ‘Hair-trigger. Trump foresees a situation soon when such hair-trigger heads of state will have their hands on multiple nuclear triggers.
      And it drives him crazy that nobody in the White House senses the danger…”.

      (I find it an extraordinary ‘reversal of reality’ that the mainstream press and all over social media people are trying to represent Trump as a ‘hair-trigger head of state’… when it is precisely that which he was rationally and coldly afraid of, and foreseeing, in *1987*, and which I think he has gambled his entire life and fortune on getting into a position to try to counter.

      An even more interesting passage from that article from *thirty* years ago.

      “…So what’s the solution? I ask him. How do you get the French to stop [selling nuke tech to loose cannons in the dar al Islam – dda], how do you get French technology out of the hands of the Pakistanis at this point?
      “I think you have to come down on them very hard economically or whatever way,” Trump says. “I think the solution is largely economic. Because there are so many of these countries [he is here referring to places like Islamic Pakistan – dda] that are so fragile and we have a vast power that’s never been used. They depend on us for food, for medical supplies. And I would never even suggest using it except on this issue. But this issue supersedes all other things.”
      He pauses.

      “I guess the easy thing would be to say you go in and clean it out.”
      “Like the Israelis did with the Iraqi plant?”
      “I don’t necessarily want to advocate that publicly because it comes off radical. And you know, without a lot of discussion prior to saying that, it sounds very foolish and this is why I get very concerned about discussing it at all.”..”.

      More:

      “Why don’t they have the sense of urgency you feel? I ask Trump.
      In part, it’s the Qaddafi’s Pilot Factor, he says.
      “Those people [the 1980s nuke deal discussers – dda] think that because we have it and the Russians have it, nobody will ever use it because they’re assuming everybody’s not necessarily mad.

      “They don’t see Qaddafi walking into an airplane and slapping his subordinates and screaming like a madman on the airplane to the pilots.

      “The man is a psycho.

      “I mean, what if he’s got the bomb and something happens like the time we shot down two of his planes.

      “And he’s enraged and he can’t see straight and he’s got twenty missiles pointed right at the United States. Washington.

      ” I mean, do you think there’s a chance he won’t press the button?”

      (I’ll BET that when Trump looks at the mullahs and the ayatollahs, he sees… the exact and precise equivalent of Gaddafi – dda]

      “And then there’s the briefcase bomb.”
      “Carry it in your briefcase, right. I’m not even talking about airplanes and missiles. You’ll walk in with your damn tape recorder,” he says, pointing to my innocent Sony, “and you’ll say it’s a tape recorder and nobody will be able to tell the difference. I mean, that’s where it’s going to be in 20 years.””

      Read it all. Everyone. Please. It’s *fascinating*.

      but he needs to talk to Mordechai Kedar and Raymond Ibrahim, and *get*, really *get* the depths of mohammedan duplicity, the whole hudna, darura and treaty of hudaybiyya thing, and al wala wa al bara.

    How I wish Oriana Fallaci were still alive! If she had lived, if she had not developed the cancer that killed her, she would have been nearly 90. But if she had lived, *she* would have been *the* person to interview Presidential Candidate Donald Trump…*and* then to interview President Donald Trump.

    He is a New Yawker by birth; she was a New Yawker by long residence and love of the place. She loved Italy, her homeland, *and* she loved America and New York City.

    And… *she* had interviewed Gaddafi, about whom Trump was told a great deal by a former employee. She had interviewed the Ayatollah Khomeini, and that horrible Mohammedan liar and thug, Yasser Arafat. And she reported on the Pakistan-Bangladesh war, as it was happening; she understood the Islamic aspect of it.

    Oh, it would have been *wonderful* had she been able to have a conversation with Donald Trump about the madmen, the warlords that proliferate from within the Dar al Islam, the Ummah or Mohammedan Mob.

    Huge question – DID Oriana Fallaci ever, ever, ever meet or converse with Donald Trump?? They lived in the same city, and he had become quite well known a good many years before she died, and she was always interested in powerful men and what made them tick, whether they were good or evil.

    I would *love* to know whether Oriana Fallaci *ever* met, or commented upon, Donald Trump.

        Mar 21, 2017 at 10:30 am

        IF Hillary Clinton had become President, I don’t think we would be discussing her at ll. It would have become illegal just as criticizing Islam would have already become illegal.

        When Hillary Clinton was meeting the arrival of the bodies of those killed by her ignorance in Benghazi, she told the surviving families that “We will catch him and put him in jail,” referring to the hapless film maker of the non-existent catalyst of the Benghazi affair. And sure enough, he was jailed on a pretext in CA which would not have resulted in the incarceration of anyone else, just Clinton’s scapegoat. (For a definition of “Scapegoat” see Nancy Pelosi’s recent idiotic remarks attempting to define the term.) Apparently Mrs. Clinton, although she did go to law school, is unaware Americans can make a movie on any subject they wish without her threat of jail, thanks to our Forefathers.

        I recently saw a photo of Mrs. Clinton leaving a beauty salon in New York, after having spent $1200 to have her hair cut and colored. Following behind her and carrying her purse, was her Muslim lapdog Huma Abedin. However, I cannot say with any certainly which one is actually the others’ lapdog.

        I am a great admirer of Mr. Trump and I voted for him. I am grateful he is willing to give up his comfortable life in order to protect me and the rest of my countrymen from the scourge of Islam and the left-wing members of the Supreme court.

    Mar 20, 2017 at 10:17 pm

    Amen, I say to you Robert, for this article. He is under attack from all sides and seems content to be there. His past failings aside, specifically regarding his comments on Garland aside, he is a loose cannon for sure, but he is our loose cannon so far.

    McMaster is indeed troubling, but it seems to me that he tries to surround himself with allies, where in reality, he has few to none, with the exception of the American voting populace.

    Trump needs to be supported. Any future alternative is nothing more than one step forward, two steps back, regarding Islam.

    “… Any remaining patriots, whatever they think of the President of the United States, should recognize that this is happening, and understand that they owe a debt of gratitude to Donald Trump for being willing to make this sacrifice…”

    Yes it’s time to get behind your President, to grasp the opportunity to strengthen America and the modern universal civilisation that the U.S. has helped create. My old Texan friend, whom I’ve kept contact with for the past quarter century, didn’t vote for Donald, but the day after the electoral results were in she said “I wish him well – he’s our President”. That’s the sort of useful patriotism that foreigners find difficult to comprehend; a commitment to civil duty that’s held the States together since the close of the Civil War, that’s in turn provided the rest of the world with a model for stability and purpose.

    Mr Spencer has done a very sharp analysis of President Trump. His article forced me to think of an analogy, President has lived his life in the material world to the fullest and now has entered the ultimate stage of a monk, who is willing to bear the cross and the crown of thorns to ensure that the future of this country and mankind is assured. President Trump did not have to do it and he could have lived a life of “decandent pleasure” like Hugh Hefner or some other billionaire playboy, but he has chosen a monk’s life in full glare of ruthless public scrutinity. Thank you Mr Spencer for this new prospective.

    We are lucky to be part of the revolution,

    1/ having a businessman as President, this has never happen before, decissions made for the good of the people using the financial brain and letting the people’s money pave the way ..
    People don’t want bullshit, they want food, education and security ..

    Trump knows how to do sums, make deals, and above all communicate with the real people …

    2/ Tweeting has caused a revolution in the media, Trump uses it to the full extent, shooting straight to the people, past the spin doctors, leaving them as second level commentators, analysts and they don’t like it.

    For the first time the “NEWS FLASH” is not from the TV or the papers, it’s direct from the source …

    I’m convinced Trump is the saviour of the free world and my heart goes out to him.

      • vcragain says

        Mar 21, 2017 at 1:38 pm

        That is not what I said – as always when responding to a post, you need to understand what is said ! Are you telling me that if I have decided that Islamic Jihad – a religious nutty extremist movement – is a reality, then I MUST have RW political views?. How does MY view of politics change what they are pushing & believe in ? The fact that a lot of those who are Leftie’s refuse to acknowledge that there could be a big problem with Islamists, doesn’t make them any less Left or Right POLITICALLY. The flavor of politics you believe in has no bearing on what you think the Islamists want & believe. Their particular structure is basically a religious grouping that I would call VERY Right-Wing in its approach, similar to a lot of religious groupings in the US, altho we generally cannot accuse them of the violence that is apparent in Islam !). Mainly the ‘Right’ trends towards the use of that little hateful word ‘should’ – when you hear that constantly used it tells you the user considers your decisions SHOULD match their own – taken to the ultimate enforced result in Islam – accept or die !!!
        My main point on this subject is that if you guys constantly equate your belief in the hatefulness of Islam with the political flavor ONLY of RW believers, you are missing out on a whole area of people like me, who want to communicate that I hear you & even tho I will not vote for a Republican – I will be putting out a message that it is time to pay attention to what the hateful Islamic extremists are saying & change policy for that purpose.
        Those who cannot discuss this subject independently of their politics are just being hard-nosed & blind.

          Mar 21, 2017 at 3:27 pm

          Your assertions make absolutely no sense. The political left, in near totality in the U.S., does nor share your view of Islam, but that is irrelevant to you. Their political groupthink regarding this issue should not be a consideration when choosing our political leaders to fight this grave global threat. Sure.

          Contrarily, Trump has distinguished himself, even from many on the right of the political sphere, to be uniquely cognizant of the jihadist threat, which as important as it is, is summarily ignored by you because you simply won’t vote Republican, because you know, Steve Bannon, Hitler etc. Got it.

          Thank you for illustrating my point, and I will state that there are no allies on the left, you included, if you are unwilling to break your ideological cage, and vote for people who view jihad as a threat, and one directly attributable to Islam, not in spite of it.

          I mean yeah, the jihad is serious stuff, just not as serious as the latent fascism of the political right, eh?

          Move along now. You have no value here. Your minded has been thoroughly suffused by the disease of liberalism.

    • dumbledoresarmy says

      Mar 22, 2017 at 4:50 am

      Yep. And from Australia… Rev Dr Mark Durie, who could *boil down*, for the President’s benefit, the techniques that, worked out by C S Hurgronje, enabled the Dutch to govern majority-Muslim Indonesia and keep the Jihad bottled up. Such techniques – undertaken coldly and clear-headedly – would be useful as an *interim* measure as one set out to *disengage* America from its very unhealthy dhimmi-like or vassal-like relationships with assorted unpleasant mohammedan entities (most notably the House of Saud). Durie could put Trump on guard against the adoption of Dhimmi attitudes.

      Thought for the day: Trump’s rudeness, his NY city-street brashness, his capacity for the *vulgar insult* is an *asset* when dealing with the Mohammedan Mob. They have gotten far too used to our representatives flattering, fawning, appeasing, and generally ‘soft-pedalling’ them. A good solid blast of NY invective – intelligently directed and, since Islam is so appalling a system, ACCURATE – should rattle them a bit. They don’t like it when previously-submissively-fawning Infidels hit them with a withering blast of precisely-aimed and ruthlessly-truthful invective.

    Trump has a rocky field to hoe, for sure. His enemies are everywhere now and they’ll seek any reason to bring him down, some quite ludicrous and desperate. I’ve never worked out how the Russians could possibly have influenced voting patterns in America. Did they hand out anti-Clinton pamphlets, did they conduct mass phone crusades across America? Inquiring minds would like to know.

    • Carolyne says

      Mar 21, 2017 at 10:45 am

      I can’t understand either how the Russians influenced my vote for Mr. Trump. I’m sure there was no one in the voting booth directing my hand to his name, nor did I see anyone lurking outside whispering to my fellow voters in Russian. This conspiracy against the President is actually ridiculous. If the left were not absolute idiots, they would have chosen something believable to hold over his head.

    • vcragain says

      Mar 21, 2017 at 1:46 pm

      Maybe you need to consider something else – the power & influence of Bannon – HE is the one that is running this cabal – that is why there is a tie-in to Putin. Go ahead call me stupid – but read up on this subject & you may find yourself rethinking your adoration of your new Fuhrer ! They didn’t realize what Hitler was until too late either !
      Mr Bannon has ties to the neoreaction.net movement. also called NRx — which is a movement that keeps itself deliberately HIDDEN & secretive & NOT part of the White Supremacist movement or the thugs who wear Nazi gear but actually aspires to taking over the US & setting up a totally new system – a Dictatorship a la Putin !!!. We ignore this at our peril, the people in this movement are very intelligent, not a bunch of crazed idiots at all. Everything Trump/Bannon have been doing appears to be falling into line with this group’s stated ambitions — take-over by undermining the existing institutions from within ! It ALSO explains the ties to Putin — why would any ‘normal’ American be interested in Putin ? If they are interested in having the same kind of power themselves they would be !!!

    Spot on. Well said. It is my belief that Trump is the man for the hour, just as Churchill was the only man for his. Dark times bring forth great leaders.

    Survival, much less victory however is not assured. Once-determined civilizations inevitably grow soft and irresolute. Greece. Rome. Scandinavia. France. Great Britain. Americans have grown complacent in their victories over evil, not remembering or realizing by what a narrow margin of hard work and good fortune those wars were won. Trump deserves our steadfast support.

      While that’s true, nowadays the general population enjoys a couple great advantages: the level of education and the amount of easily-available information. Doesn’t mean everyone will use them, but it’s a much better set-up than being a poor, illiterate farmer 1500 years ago.

      Yes. PRAY like blazes.

      American Christians and observant American Jews should pray like blazes. This *is*, after all, the season of Lent, overlapping with the Jewish preparation for Passover. Pray and fast. And those of us who belong to *allied* nations, as I do (I am an Aussie) will pray for *our* governors… *and* for the President, Congress and Senate of the USA.

      God has used *very* imperfect people, before now, to do great things (the whole of the TaNaKh teaches us that; as does the NT).

      Churchill was an egotist, prone to drink too much, and liable to the ‘black dog’ of depression. He had massive flaws; yet, faced with a mortal threat to civilisation, he knew it for what it was, and managed to rally his country – and the whole of the free world – to resist it.

    Wonderful article, so beautifully written.

    Yes, President Trump is the unlikeliest of presidents, and has chosen a most difficult path (much like Robert Spencer). He has exposed himself to the most brutal criticism imaginable. Why? He must be one of those rare individuals who believes there is something more important in life than personal ease and comfort, or mass adulation. He seeks the difficult, even the impossible, to accomplish. That’s where his self-worth comes from.
