Several weeks ago former President Donald Trump said that one of his early campaign promises is he wants ban politicians lobbying while he’s in office. However, when Trump was President he had actually reneged on a previous executive order that prohibited lobbying on January 19th, 2021, his final night behind the Resolute Desk in the White House.
Trump announced these ambitions and more on November 15th, where he also formally declared that he would be seeking reelection in 2024 – an announcement he made exactly 666 days since leaving office.
AUTHOR’S NOTE: Though Trump’s presidential campaign announcement is a few weeks old, I still wanted to at least cover some of the other things that I did not initially touch upon in The WP report covering his general announcement (see above).
The whole speech can be viewed below:
After the halfway point or so of the speech, Trump began to rattle off some of the main things he currently will be campaigning on for 2024.
One of these goals is to officially finish the Southern Border Wall that was unable to be completed, and subsequently retighten and further strengthen security and police along the border; along with wanting to further crackdown on child trafficking and drug smuggling – calling for the death penalty be instated for such crimes; while also praising China, which utilizes a social credit score system, for not having a drug problem because of the death penalty threat.
Trump also promised to bring down inflation rates – claiming that inflation was actually at 1% and all the way down to zero under his reign, insinuating that he and his administration were directly manipulating the rates.
We will immediately tackle inflation and bring down to a level that it was. We were at zero, but actually the best number is 1%. Do you know that?
You don’t want it really zero. But we were at zero. We actually got it to exactly 1%. The perfect number.
Everything, every economist agrees, don’t have it like at 1%. They even say 1 to 2, but I said, let’s do one.
Trump said
However, the federal inflation rate was at near 0% for a brief period during the initial wave of lockdowns in 2020. Admitted inflation was otherwise mostly around 2.5%-3% at times.
He could however be referring to federal interest rates, which the Federal Reserve decides.
Trump added that the country had a strong dollar but other countries sought to devalue it.
And we had it at 1%. And we had it there for a long period of time and we had the value of the dollar.
We had it so that this country could make a lot of money and I fought other countries where they devalued their currency, whether it was the pound or whether it was the one or the end.
And I used to fight like cats and dogs with the leaders of other countries because they were stealing from us when they did that. They had artificial devaluations of their currency. It’s a very important thing. I haven’t even heard it mentioned in two years. It’s a very important thing. It’s very hard for us to compete when they do that artificially.
Ironically, Trump has publicly called for a weaker dollar and said he was not “thrilled” that the dollar in 2019 was “very strong,” and wanted negative interest rates.
Trump also said that on “day one” he move to undo Biden’s green policies and attempt to wrangle in the currently very high energy and fuel costs.
Trump also went after woke and progressive ideologies, saying Critical Race Theory will be banned. Trump proclaimed that he will be the one fix the American education system.
Although Trump was the head of Operation Warp Speed which oversaw the funding, creation, and dispersal of the Covid vaccines; Trump said he will immediately end Biden’s Covid mandates, and reinstate and refund every “patriot” that was effected.
Trump also wants to reup military defenses some more:
As events overseas have shown, to protect our people from the unthinkable threat of nuclear weapons and hypersonic missiles the United States must also build a state-of-the-art next-generation missile defense shield we needed, the power of these missiles and the power of a word that are refused to say nuclear.
We have to have it. We need a defense shield, and we have to do it. And we actually have the technology, and we’re going to build it. Just as I rebuilt our military, I will get this done. I rebuilt our entire military, which nobody talks about.
Moreover, he plans to not reenter or start more useless and endless proxy and terrorist wars, boasting that he fulfilled that promise during his first term; even though his administration orchestrated the assassination of Qassem Soleimani, Iran’s second-in-command general, via a drone strike in January of 2020 right before the Covid War was propagandized – in an unprovoked attack, where the Pentagon provided little quantitative and qualitative evidence to prove that Iran had plans to launch some huge counter-offensive against the U.S.
We took action last night to stop a war. We did not take action to start a war.
Trump said at the time
Kayleigh McEnany, press secretary for Trump said on Fox News that the killing was the “greatest foreign policy accomplishment, I would say of all the decade, if not our lifetime.”
Trump later reiterated his calls to “drain the swamp,” which he followed by saying he will ban politicians from lobbying.
And I will ask for a permanent ban on taxpayer funding of campaigns, a lifetime ban on lobbying by former members of Congress and cabinet panel.
Now I see what they make. They leave the White House or they leave Congress and they paid millions and millions and millions of dollars a year. Now you have to have a ban. We want to ban on members of Congress getting rich by trading stocks with insider information. And many of our great members agree with that. They actually agree with that.
However, this claim flies in the face of his previous actions as President.
In 2016, one week after taking office, prohibited lobbying by politicians. But on January 19th, 2020, his final night in office, Trump rescinded that executive order and allowed politicians to openly lobby and take bribes as they were before.
Executive Order 13770 of January 28, 2017, “Ethics Commitments by Executive Branch Appointees,” is hereby revoked, effective at noon January 20, 2021. Employees and former employees subject to the commitments in Executive Order 13770 will not be subject to those commitments after noon January 20, 2021.
The Trump White House website was quick to remove the actual webpage on it as soon as the press caught wind of it, and social media backlash began to grow.
Nearing the end of Trump’s speech – Trump talked about how America will be stronger than it ever was before, so much so he intends on sending men to Mars and plant a flag on its surface.
We will defend life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
We will expand the frontiers of human knowledge and extend the horizons of human achievement.
And we will plant our beautiful American flag very soon on the surface of Mars, which I got started.
But we need everyone involved. We need everyone’s help. We need to look out for one another. We need to be friends. And we need every patriot on board. Because this is not just a campaign. This is a quest to save our country. Talking about saving our country.
And lastly of note, Trump gave a subtle Qanon reference, using identical terminology the movement uses:
We will be persecuted just as I have been. I mean, I have been, but many people in this room have been, but we will not be intimidated.
We will persevere. We will stand tall in the storm. We will march forward into the torrent. And we, in the end, will win. Our country will win. We will win.

AUTOR COMMENTARY
As I said, this is a bit late but I did not want this to fall on deaf ears.
A true witness delivereth souls: but a deceitful witness speaketh lies.
Proverbs 14:25
I mean, I think Trump’s words speak for themselves. He’s a habitual liar and psychopath that just plays on the sentiments of the masses, relying on blind obedience of the masses, for his club of elitists to succeed in pushing their true agendas.
For a brief moment, and for the sake of discussion, I want you to erase your mind of Trump and what you know and feel about him: let us judge this with a clean, sterile slate, pretending that this is your first time hearing Trump, okay?
Okay, so he wants us to believe that America is collapsing fast, saying: “You’re angry about what’s happening to our country. Our country is being destroyed before your very eyes.” And yet he wants to plant a flag on Mars.
Now, you can stop pretending and let reality set in again…
You have got to be kidding me!? This country is collapsing at freefall speeds, and yet this nutcase is still preaching American imperialism and wants to plant a flag on Mars! Oh, so when Biden funds billions to Ukraine, it’s a travesty; but when Trump wants the taxpayer to pay billions for a rocket to land men on Mars and back, then it’s “beautiful?”
Need I say anymore?
Alas, those that REFUSE to wake-up and who support this man will continue to do so, and lie to themselves that things will get better.
[16] Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he hath no heart to it? [24] Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth. Proverbs 17:16, 24
His speech demonstrated the same tactics that the Soviets used to takeover Russia in the 1920’s, and are the same tactics and fair speeches that Qanon uses today:
Operation “Trust:” The 100-Year-Old Psy-op Repackaged As Qanon
The Great Reset Versus The Great Awakening: Fighting For The Same Team
Hate to break it to you but this country is dead and over, while he continues to regurgitate the same political cliches that every politician repeats. You need to be looking for ways to prepare for the imminent collapse, or drown as the sunken ship pulls you under…
We’re going to have to go far. First, we have to get out of this ditch. And once we’re at, you’ll see things that nobody imagined for any country.
Trump also said in his speech
You got that right Trump…
[16] Thus saith the LORD of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the LORD. [17] They say still unto them that despise me, The LORD hath said, Ye shall have peace; and they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you. [18] For who hath stood in the counsel of the LORD, and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it? [19] Behold, a whirlwind of the LORD is gone forth in fury, even a grievous whirlwind: it shall fall grievously upon the head of the wicked. [20] The anger of the LORD shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it perfectly. [21] I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. [22] But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings. Jeremiah 23:16-22
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

Question to author:
Holy Jerusalem in heaven has 12 entrances each representing the 12 tribes of Israel so which one do the gentiles enter through?
God put Trump in office to bring about the Abraham accords and to declare Jerusalem the eternal capital of Israel, God is finished using Trump so no Trump will never be President of the USA again.
Question to author:
Holy Jerusalem in heaven has 12 entrances each representing the 12 tribes of Israel so which one do the gentiles enter through?
I only posted one time so why do I see duplicates … huh that’s weird.
Yeah…no, we don’t have the time, resources, or reason to land a man on Mars. It’s not an easy task by any means, as it takes months to get there and back, we have no idea if someone could survive the trip, you have to bring all of your food and water either with you on your ship or pre-landed from a previous mission, and that’s all assuming that there isn’t something on Mars that can kill you of which we have no knowledge of. I don’t believe in life on other worlds, but there could be toxins and such in the soil.
And as for Trump himself, I’m getting very very tired of Christians worshiping this man, and also his nation. Trump talks big, but delivers very little on the good and delivers exceedingly on the wicked. Just look at his vaccine fanboyisim for a good clue if you’re still blind on this wicked man’s true designs.
I used to be more tolerable of ministers who took pride in this nation, but in the past decade I’ve determined to not tarry long with ministries who do so. If I watch a ministry, I’m watching to hear the Lord’s word or a subject that needs covering from the King James Bible, not to see some Idolator spiritually fornicate with this nation.
Anyone who can preach fire and brimstone against this nation’s sins and then go on to sing “God Bless America” has something really wrong with them, and I want no part in that.
Anyone who can say anything good about Modern America is blind, and a novice knowing nothing.
Anyone who says that this nation was a Christian Nation in the past really needs to look up what a Christian nation would actually look like, because pre-1980’s America is far from it, irregardless if it’s the 1700s, 1800s, and especially the early 1900s. If you do a deep dive into this nation’s past, you’ll quickly realize how off this nation was and specifically is now.
Apart from USA I feel Brazil might erupt into a civil war.
You know what that could mean: more Catholics heading north.
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding. Proverbs 9:10 KJV
Exodus 11:10
And Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh: and the LORD hardened Pharaoh’s heart, so that he would not let the children of Israel go out of his land.
——- see it says God hardened pharaohs heart not pharaoh himself proving the verses listed below. How amazing to know sin has no hold on us if we believe on Jesus Christ the full Godhead he sets us free, we are free indeed from the bondage of sin, making us a new man, repented , giving us a new life saved by his grace and knowing HE JESUS IS UN FULL CONTROL OF ALL THIS IS IN EXISTENCE.
Fear not for these things must come to pass but the end is not yet near …
Daniel 4:17
17 This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.
25 …… till thou know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will.
26 …… that thou shalt have known that the heavens do rule.
27 …… break off thy sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by shewing mercy to the poor; if it may be lengthening of thy tranquility.
34-37
34 And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation:
35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?
36 At the same time my reason returned unto me; and for the glory of my kingdom, mine honour and brightness returned unto me; and my counsellors and my lords sought unto me; and I was established in my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added unto me.
37 Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase.
2 Timothy 1:7
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
