THE PATH FORWARD
Someone once asked "Did Napoleon make the times or did the times make Napoleon?" I believe that the answer is both. The times made Napoleon but Napoleons Leadership also made the times. The same could be said of Trump. At one point, He was considered The Teflon Don, because nothing could touch Him. He earned the name because He came back from being in over a Billion Dollars in debt. He did this because of His business acumen and obvious leadership. Some will argue that he is a corrupt business man but the same people cant explain how Hillary who was a public servant her entire life has millions of dollars. Trump needs to do the same thing he has done......keep moving forward with purpose and vision.
DID HE, REALLY!
Some people today say that Trump destroyed the republican party. Did he, really? This isn't true. For years the Republican Party has lost Trust. They did this because they wouldn't fight but always capitulated and did the democrat's bidding. Take for example censorship, most republicans condemn twitter and Facebook for banning the President. The problem is that they didn't do anything about it for years and now its simply to big to control without radical action.
In 2011 I wrote an Article on Facebook as to the reasons I wanted Trump to Run. In it I pointed out to several things 1) He was pro-life 2) He would appoint conservative judges 3) as a business man he will be pragmatic which made him a better candidate in my view since he was not a career politician and could give us a different perspective.
FAST FORWARD:
You may disagree with the Issue of Election Fraud but you cant question the following:
States changed the rules on mail in ballots at the last minute and as a result of this Biden was elected. There is no doubt that Trump received more black votes than any republican president in History. More votes than an incumbent Republican President in History.
Even so, Biden was certified President and then people were mad.
1-6-2020 Resulted in some Trump supporters and even some Antifa *biden supporters storming into THE CAPTITAL and creating havoc even though Trump had called for a peaceful protest. Now Democrats are trying to impeach again for one reason DEMOCRATS want MAKE IT SO THAT TRUMP cant Run in 2020. This is not about JANUARY 6, THIS IS ABOUT TRUMP BEING A THREAT TO THEIR POWER.
CENSORSHIP
I wrote the following post on Facebook regarding Facebook and Twitters decision to Ban A sitting President from social media. The crazy part is that Trump would tweet and it would make news and this is the reason they banned him. Its not because of violence but because he has influence over 80+ million voters in America.
My complaint against big tech is clear.
And let me put it in simple terms: start with the constitution providing free speech.
Using Rex Miller’s the MILLENIUM MATRIX which is a book on how the church can communicate. I will show why there is a problem with what Twitter is doing.
O-1500’s: ORAL CULTURE the primary method and means of communication was word of mouth. Information, ideas etc were passed father to son. Those who had power were the ones who had the “most information”.
1500-1900 WRITTEN CULTURE
The primary means of communication switched to writing.
While writing existed before it did not predominate culture. Once the printing press came out “the church” seized the opportunity and produced some of the great theologians we now now. On the political and economía side those who had access to books and education became the powerful. That’s the reasons the Bible was “BURNED” and John Wycleff and Luther’s books were burned.... because I’d you could stop the flow of information you could control the people.
while oral and written communication remained powerful during this time with the Radio and Television 📺 everything changed. The primary means of receiving NEWS and important information was either radio or Tv. News, advertisement and political propaganda was disseminated through broadcasting. This is why in america they made it or at Least tried to make it were you heard both sides. Even leading up to the 1980’s news challenge like ABC, NBC, CBS were fair in that they allowed both candidates to speak. In fact I’m also old enough to remember debates that asked poignant questions to BOTH candidates.
I’m from panama and lived in the jungles of panama every week we would turn on the news and be told what was happening in the country. What we didn’t know was that on the Other side MANUEL NORIEGA the dictator America took out was controlling the info we were getting.
while Facebook and Twitter are private companies that pride themselves in being the “the time square”. What we have seen is that while they were growing they didn’t interrupt the flow of information but during this election tech companies got slick.... example: if you googled Biden you would find little information regarding his sons dealings with China. (While I don’t accuse him, it is enough to raise questions). Twitter turned off its retweet button to hinder Trump from “trending” because remember in digital culture trending is news.
It also blocked NEWS OUTLETS like when it blocked the NEW YORK POST story right before the election so that it wouldn’t become news.
Just so you understand I respect the fact that THESE are private companies that by the way are protected under section 230 from lawsuits as if they are a publisher when they are a “public forum”.
And I suspect that if your reading this your educated enough to understand my point.
So just like “burning books” and “controlling the news you get”
Media tech companies can now determine what’s supposedly News, what’s News worthy, what political party is acceptable, which riots are acceptable (Minnesota yes, Capital no, even though BOTH are wrong) and guess what if it can determine the information you get it can control how you THINK.
It will determine who’s racist (Trump yes, Republicans yes but a sitting Virginia governor who dressed as black face next to a kkk person is NOT RACIST)
It will determine by way of “controlled information” and if you disagree your banned. Leaders, dictators who commit genocide have Twitter accounts—let that sink in.
Since these are public forums, which we (not democrats or republicans) but all of us have given our trust to this is a violation of FREE SPEECH and it does become a hind stance to our constitutional right in what is new the new “public space” the internet.
Banning the “voice” of people even if you disagree is a violation of my free speech.... this will not end well.
When amazon forbids the use of its servers to a company for allowing free speech right or let, when apple shuts down and app and people by the hundreds of thousands are “purged” from twitter..... you cannot say it’s not a violation of free speech especially when you see the numbers “mysteriously increasing on the other side”.
This is a violation of free speech and it’s an instigation for conflict!
THE PATH FORWARD
Since the 6th Democrats have been calling for the Impeachment of Trump. There are two choices that Trump can make, He can stay on as President for the next few days or if the democrats have the votes for impeachment He can step down and be look like a hero to those who supported him. Trump supporters will not see him as losing, since He didnt lose. The election was stolen...He can say I did not want to lose my chances of "fighting for you" and the people will roar....embolden by the corruption on the left they will be energized. He can clearly show that there was election fraud, give constant pressure to the Biden Administration to the point. He can build a communication channel or sign on to something like Parler etc.
My hope is that Trump follows Robert Green's advice from the 33 Strategies and decides to follow it. The second strategy of war is "do not fight the last war": Trump should not be blinded by past success and instead of dying a martyr's death on the altar of impeachment--He can decide instead to do what he did before Run as an outsider and HE WILL WIN. During these next 4 years he can focus on making sure election laws are fair elections. If the democrats don't have the votes for impeachment then He should stand and fight!
