It’s never been about Trump—it’s about forcing Americans into submission
By Allen Mashburn, AM GREATNESS 1.8.23
In the tumultuous landscape of American politics, one name has become emblematic of the Left’s unyielding battle: Donald Trump. His presidency ignited a firestorm of opposition, revealing not just a political clash, but a broader war against those who hold opposing beliefs. As the dust settled on his term, it became evident that the Left’s war on Trump is just one facet of a broader campaign that aims to silence any dissenting voices. To preserve our freedoms, there must be an issued call to arms for patriotism, courage, and bravery from all citizens—willing to rise to protect the futures of their children and grandchildren.
The Left’s relentless pursuit of Donald Trump transcends mere political opposition. Every step he takes is scrutinized, every word analyzed, and every policy decision met with fervent resistance. Trump, in his own way, emerged as a representative man of the common people – an unconventional politician who resonated with those who felt unheard by the political establishment—and he is a master at rallying his troops. This made him a lightning rod for the Left’s ire, a symbol of everything they sought to dismantle. Yet, beneath the surface, this battle is not solely against a single individual; it is a struggle against any opposition to their ideological agenda. The political spectrum forever changed in America with the inauguration of Donald Trump as the 45th President of the United States. The Left’s hand has been shown by his antics of unfiltered communication with America—which got him de-platformed from social media. His call for American independence from foreign entities goes totally against the sellout agenda of the Left that pushes America towards globalism, risking our national sovereignty. He has become a rock in the proverbial shoe of the establishment elites and leftists. He challenges their motives, logic, and their allegiance to Country—for that they hate him vehemently.
The war against Donald Trump is but one example of the broader campaign the Left wages against anyone with opposing beliefs. Their goal is not only to marginalize Trump and his supporters but to ensure that anyone who dares dissent is castigated and suppressed. This phenomenon is not confined to the political realm; it permeates everyday conversations, social media, and public discourse. As we witnessed during Trump’s presidency, the Left’s intolerance of opposing viewpoints extends far beyond the political elite and directly affects ordinary citizens who dare to voice their opinions.
This intolerance for differing beliefs is a dangerous precedent for the future of our Republic. A healthy society thrives on a diversity of opinions, encouraging open debates that lead to thoughtful and balanced decision-making. However, when one side seeks to silence the other, it not only weakens the deliberative process but threatens the very foundations upon which the nation was built.

The call for patriotism, courage, and bravery is not an abstract notion; it is a rallying cry for ordinary citizens to stand up for their country and its principles. As the Left’s war against opposing beliefs rages on, it is not just politicians and activists who must defend these ideals, but every American who values the preservation of freedom. Just as soldiers stormed the beaches of Normandy with unwavering tenacity, citizens must stand firm against attempts to suppress their voices. Multitudes have had to die to provide us with this freedom. If it is to be passed to future generations, then it must be conserved through the strength and perseverance of the citizenry.<

The erosion of the First Amendment stands at the heart of this struggle. The right to freedom of speech, expression, and assembly is the bedrock of America, enabling citizens to voice their concerns, challenge the status quo, and hold those in power accountable. However, over the last decade, we have witnessed a steady encroachment on these rights. Online censorship, the suppression of dissenting viewpoints, and the vilification of opposing voices have all contributed to a chilling effect on free speech.
The dismantling of our First Amendment rights is not a distant possibility; it is a present reality. Just as the Left relentlessly pursues Donald Trump, they also are chipping away at the very liberties that ensure a robust nation. This trend affects all Americans, regardless of political affiliation, and it poses a grave threat to the multiplicity of thought that is essential for a healthy society.
To combat this erosion of rights and preserve our freedoms, every American must be willing to put everything on the line. The fight for freedom is not for the faint-hearted; it requires courage, determination, and an unyielding commitment to the principles that define our nation. Just as soldiers displayed incredible bravery while fighting in the communist jungles of Vietnam, citizens must exhibit the same courage to defend their rights against ideological tyranny.
Ordinary citizens, irrespective of their backgrounds or beliefs, must recognize the urgency of this fight. As we seek to secure the futures of our children and grandchildren, we must stand united against any attempts to silence, suppress, or marginalize the voices of conservatism and common sense.
The Left’s relentless war against Donald Trump is emblematic of a broader campaign aimed at stifling dissenting voices and eroding the founding principles of our nation. This battle is going to require resolve, and love for our families and country. We have no choice. We are at war. It has never been about Donald Trump—it’s about forcing Americans into submission. The sooner we realize it, the sooner you will begin to fight, and win.

HI, LIz44.
Vladimir Putin lives by drinking the blood of his own people. I have little sympathy for him. He has cast his own lot, and chosen his own fate. On Judgment Day, hundreds of thousands of Russians will shake their fists at him, crying, Traitor! Traitor!. Widows and bereaved mothers will cry out against him, because their loved ones were forced to die for his vanity and comfort.
Putin will have much company in the lake of fire: Obama will be there for sure, with Biden and friends; probably also Christopher Wray, Anthony Fauci and Chuck Schumer. I will let Hashem complete the list. Thence go I also, as so much unworthy trash, but that He has pardoned me by the death of His son.
Yeshol,
If there is armed resistance, who will be assigned to pull the trigger on our loved ones who have chosen the wrong side? I would rather die myself, than cause the death of my son.
For the longest time, I couldn’t figure out what it was about Trump that made the Left lose its mind. Their hatred of him was, and still is, way “over the top” (there’s that term again, Ted). I don’t know for sure what it is, but my best guess is that they are afraid he will pull the curtain back on the Uni-party and expose all the grifters. That would bring their whole house of cards down, and perhaps set the stage for the “reset” that the country needs. If that’s not why the Left hates Trump, I’m out of ideas.
This article needed to be said and heard by all.
I’ve felt this way my entire adult life as a Jewish activist in Toronto. Sadly my fellow Jews around here are too complacent. They are too comfortable in their everyday lives. It’s easy to ignore the antisemitism that is sadly flourishing all around us when you have a well paid job or business, own a 70 inch flat screen TV, live in a 5000 sq ft home and drive a Lexus.
This holds true for the world at large. Especially in the West (US and Canada) where the states have turned into dangerous, left wing dictatorships. The governments and their agencies are not on our (the common folk) side. As long as we all (mostly) have places to live, with heat in the winter and A/C in the summer, still vacation at our cottages and travel to Italy and other fun places for vacation, life is grand and we can all comfortably ignore the insanity that is pervading our society from the top down. Taking down a former president who gave everything for his people just because he might win an upcoming election tells us everything we need to know about where we live (or should). Even if you don’t like Trump, you should stand up to this flagrant injustice.
So like the author stated, we (all of us) including the most introverted of us, needs to step up and speak up, act up now. We can’t rely on other activists to protect us. Later will be too late.
I’m sure you’ve all heard the now infamous poem by pastor Niemoller:
“First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.”
It certainly applies to us right now!

I agree completely with the article and with those who have commented so far.
The people on the Left who support their anti-Trump agenda truly believe that Trump is a racist, misogynist, and Islamophobe. My sister said, “You’re not still for Trump are you? You know he’s a criminal and mentally ill? They also believe they are fighting to end discrimination and that they are the righteous enlightened ones, while Trump supporters in their minds are bigoted ignorant people “clinging to their guns and bibles” as Obama said.
You have to understand their full belief in the righteousness in order to understand that they live in a different reality from the rest of us. What the rest of us see is tyranny, militant gender ideology being enforced on society and young children, critical race theory, and a new form of racism, this time against whites.
We see a party that has abandoned the workers of America and now champions the billionaires, all the while pretending to Americans they really care about the little guy.
Yes what Trump did was to speak honestly with Americans and this had never been done by any Presidential candidate before. He pulled the curtain back and showed the media for what it is: fake news. He identified the failures of democrat leadership by pointing to the failed cities in the USA run by democrat mayors. He honestly explained that the democrat party rigged the election of 2020. He identified Obama’s deal with Iran as dangerous to America and Israel. He got us out of global commercial treaties that would benefit only globalist predators, not American workers. He kept us out of war, which only benefit globalist predators and the Washington DC gravy train from which neocon political hacks like Victoria Nuland and Lindsey Graham benefit.
The democrat voters think they are 100% innocent and virtuous, but they have supported with their money and their votes a party that has created a US police state that the US has never known before, and that has the potential to destroy the country. Each democrat voter is responsible for the mess we are in now. They are not innocent. They are not virtuous. But they do have a chance to change course.
If they want to make policy proposals, I am all ears. But lacking policy ideas they resort to character assassination and hounding people out of jobs with whom they disagree.
We have many problems to solve as a country and must move forward either with those democrat voters or without them. But we must move forward and bring this police state to an end. I am searching for ways that we can overcome the tyranny that is meant to strangulate the freedom of Americans. I believe it can be done, because a free people never forgets freedom.
Great piece, the only addition I’d make is to point out that it’s not just the Left which hates Trump, it’s everybody, Left and Right, who is part of the NWO and wants to impose its controlling, draconian regime on every single person alive. We know who they are. The WEF, the UN, Soros, Davos, Bilderberg, Blackrock and Vanguard, to name the main players, are furious that their entire plan could possibly be postponed or even stopped by Trump and his supporters. This is why they are battling for control of Ukraine, and why they hate Putin so much. This is why they hate Trump, Orban and everyone else who sees through their plan and acts to oppose it. If the NWO comes into being, we are all toast. I hope Americans rally round Trump and enlist whoever they can to aid him in coming to power. It really is our last chance.
Brilliant column. Right on the mark, He identifies the real objective behind the persecutuin of dDonald Trump–the desire to supress all dissent from the views of a n unpatriotic, globalist ruling class. I hope Allen becomes Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina.
It is about time that someone xppresses the real truth: it is unlikely that the attack on Freedom by the “progressives” of the DEEP STATE financed by the Globalist billionaires will be stopped by anything other than ARMED RESISTANCE. Hopefully – not civil war. Freedom lovers in the USA should speak with the soldiers in the Army and the National Guard, and when preparations are completed – take over the Department of Justice and the FBI and the “progressive” Judiciary and other government offices controlled by the DEEP STATE, jail them on counts of sedition, investigate them for months, perhaps years, and try them by Freedom Loving judges.
