As Joe Biden’s Presidency Nears Its Conclusion, Donald Trump’s Second Term Promises a New Era of Prosperity for the US

With respect to Gerald Ford, yet another prolonged national ordeal has concluded.

Joe Biden’s tumultuous presidency is finally coming to an end.

The president was eager for a wave of admiration and thankfulness, yet his farewell week has turned into a drawn-out and uncomfortable retreat.

And frustrating.

Biden’s assertions of notable achievements have always been fabrications, but he seems to think that incessantly reiterating falsehoods will make them true.

Claiming the Equal Rights Amendment to be the “Law of the Land,” despite the contrary, as he did on Friday, is a fitting last indignity.

In spite of his claimed commitment to political customs and practices, Biden continues to undermine his successor, sarcastically calling it a “joke” that Donald Trump could receive any acknowledgment for the Israel-Hamas ceasefire.

The inauguration can’t arrive soon enough.

Thus, Monday marks not only the onset of a new administration but also the conclusion of one of the most remarkable transitions this country has ever experienced.

In stark contrast to the bitter and cantankerous Biden, the Trump phenomenon is energizing much of the globe.

His resounding victory is motivating conservative factions in Canada, Europe, and beyond to rise and combat their nations’ progressive descent.

Most notably, there is a widespread optimism that his re-entry into the Oval Office will pave the way for a more peaceful and stable epoch.

Hope for Peace

A global survey conducted by the European Council on Foreign Relations revealed that “a significant number of citizens worldwide are optimistic about Donald Trump’s return to the US White House. Many believe Trump will be beneficial for America and may help alleviate tensions in Ukraine, the Middle East, and US-China relations.”

Take that, obstinate Democrats!

The enthusiasm showcases that this was no typical election, and that Monday’s transition signifies much more than merely changing presidents.

It feels like a raucous yet peaceful revolution, signaling the end of an era founded on a flawed ideology, giving victory to a more democratic notion.

The belief that government always knows what’s best, and that every issue can be resolved by empowering officials to impose their will on every aspect of daily life is being contested.

Under such regimes, individuals are only esteemed when they forsake their liberties for the sake of partisan, racial, and gender equality.

This has resulted in unchecked immigration and rising government reliance becoming commonplace in much of Europe, necessitating confiscatory taxes and heavy-handed regulations.

Such socialist ideologies have deep roots there, but the fact that they made significant gains in America was surprising.

Now, following Trump’s election, the rollback can commence.

The military is set to expand, yet various branches of government face dire reckonings. Deportations of criminal immigrants are also set to commence immediately.

Make no mistake—an American resurgence wouldn’t be achievable without Trump.

Numerous intelligent and capable individuals populate this nation, but none could have initiated the political transformation he sparked.

His comeback is already legendary.

I was among those who believed he would never rebound from the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021, but through unwavering determination and a track record of successful, America-first policies, he gradually regained favor with both his party and the nation.

Extraordinary Resolve

GOP rivals who presumed his party support was tenuous soon learned he was invincible.

His general election opponents, Biden and the then Vice President Kamala Harris, were lackluster candidates brimming with poor ideas, yet they were armed with endless funds and aided by mainstream media as their propaganda apparatus.

Still, he triumphed, securing the popular vote and a landslide in the Electoral College.

This victory stemmed from an aggressive and opportunistic campaign that deftly adapted to evolving circumstances.

Two memorable instances stand out: first, when Trump humorously donned a yellow apron and served fries in a Pennsylvania McDonald’s to mock Harris, who claimed to have worked there.

Then, after Biden dismissed his supporters as “garbage,” Trump donned a workers’ vest and took questions from reporters while sitting in a garbage truck’s cab.

These stunts were electrifying, yet the clincher was the indomitable nature of the candidate himself.

His demonstrations of extraordinary courage in the face of weaponized law enforcement and two assassination attempts were pivotal.

It is not typical for an individual to survive a near-fatal gunshot wound, rise with a face smeared in blood, and instinctively raise a clenched fist to rally his supporters to “fight, fight, fight.”

Nor is it usual for a politician to endure relentless scrutiny from corrupt federal and state prosecutors from the opposing side and emerge stronger than before.

Trump’s refusal to yield solidified his connection with voters who perceive him as their defender against a predatory, globalist government.

His superpower is their conviction that his battle is their battle.

To be certain, significant differences will characterize Trump’s second term compared to the first.

Foremost among these changes, I believe, is that the near-fatal incident he experienced during the assassination attempt in Pennsylvania last July transformed him.

In an interview aboard his plane the following day, he remarked, “I’m not supposed to be here. I’m supposed to be dead.”

He expressed a desire to unite the nation “through success,” explaining that he feels “spared for a purpose.”

Additionally, eight years have elapsed since he first took office in 2017, making him seem calmer and more outcome-oriented than drama-focused at 78.

Petty quarrels on social media have fortunately become rare.

Simultaneously, Trump now leads a significantly altered Republican Party.

It’s firmly MAGA, and his determination to cultivate a governing majority in his likeness has successfully attracted more working-class voters, many of whom are nonwhite.

The New GOP Generation

The Chamber of Commerce and country club Republicans are welcomed, yet they no longer hold sway.

It’s challenging to recall that a generation of GOP candidates dismissed most immigrants, black voters, and union members.

They also surrendered cultural issues to Democrats and their media allies.

The new GOP, much like Trump, is a spirited party eager to fight for its vision of America.

Gone is the era of deference to the media and Washington’s entrenched bureaucracy.

The confirmation hearings embodied this new GOP attitude.

Certain Democratic senators, unwilling to absorb the lessons of the election, resorted to berating the nominees without posing serious inquiries.

In response, the nominees stood their ground. Pete Hegseth, nominated for secretary of defense, and Pam Bondi, nominated for attorney general, exemplified this resistance, refusing to become punching bags for senators who were never inclined to support any Trump nominee.

“I’m not going to be bullied by you,” Bondi retorted to California Senator Alex Padilla after he chastised her.

“I didn’t take your homework assignment.”

Democrats and their media allies should take heed.

A new sheriff is in town, and a younger, tougher party stands firmly behind him.
