Greetings from Tyler,
All the network news is dead set against our President. They’ve worked overtime trying to engineer some crisis. Latest is the gift from Qatar. It’s a beautiful 747 and you’d think that the President was accepting it on his own behalf. It’s a 747 with all the bells and whistles that anybody could want. The mainstream is trying to pretend it was a gift to you know who, and he very deftly rammed that question down the reporter’s throat when she asked it in such a way to pretend like it was a bribe. She instantly regretted it, at least I hope she did.
I watched the president’s visit to Saudi Arabia, and he was welcomed in a way that you don’t see every day. The Benny show played the Biden visit, where Biden had to drive an hour to visit the Royal Family, and then they fist-bumped. In this instance, the entire Royal entourage came to the airport to greet the President. They took him through some hall of progress, where they’re trying out new innovations, and then to the hall to speak.
He lifted sanctions on Syria. It may have something to do with the fact that Bashir Assad fled Syria no doubt taking vast sums with him. Anyway, he’s gone just in time. We’ve heard about all the shipping trouble in the Red Sea, and the Houthis were responsible. There are no reporters on the ground, but our jets responded, and now they want to make peace. Imagine that!
President Trump alluded to our weapons capability in his speech, and said nobody wants to be the first to find out. He praised the King and his deputy and said the place has changed since he was last there. They toured him around their opulent displays and he took it in. Then he was introduced for his speech. He had a veritable posse with him, some of the richest, smartest guys on earth. You’ve seen a Trump speech before, and this was just as confident as you remember.
He dropped the bombshell about Syria. Says that sanctions would keep them from achieving what’s possible, so he’s dropping them. Keeping this Holy War going is a fool’s errand. We knew that long ago, but…insanity you know, fed down through generations. It’s a family tradition to hate the Jews, and want to annihilate them. I doubt Trump can stamp out the hatreds that have been handed down since Biblical times. He’s prying Syria away from Iran.
Putin is playing hardball on Ukraine. Maybe Trump can convince everybody that it’s in their best interest to stop the killing. Meanwhile the war drags on. Zelensky acts like Russia is going to threaten us and the world if he doesn’t get what he wants. Maybe you’ve got a different take on Zelensky, but I don’t think he’s on the up and up. Maybe I’ll be proven wrong, but he’s gone all over the world begging for money and weapons. He better be careful. He’s just about worn out his welcome.
I think we’ve got a completely different situation on our hands and the sooner everybody realizes it the better. We’ve suffered through a lot of financial peril in our lives. With any luck that’s over. We’ve got a champion leading the United States, and if that isn’t an answer to prayer, I don’t know what to tell you.
