Dear editor;

Trump Derangement Symptom (TDS) is in full display for all to see. The far left has finally gone off the rails when it comes to Donald Trump.

The far left has fought Trump for more than nine years through lawsuits and courts at every front trying to make him fail, but he keeps on winning. It’s probably why congressional democrats have an 18% approval rating from a CNN poll. It drives them crazy!

The rally cries of no Kings and the Epstein files are fading out. I guess they’re not getting the results they hoped for.

The stock market is doing well, inflation is currently holding around 2.6% to 2.7%, gasoline prices are way down at $2.39 a gallon at Yorkville Costco. Job claims are historically low, economic growth and consumer spending is proving resilient, and households are set to receive $100 billion to $150 billion in additional tax refunds.

Donald Trump, the business man, has proven the Bloomberg Financial experts wrong in many cases. Groceries are still high in general and you need to call about your utilities. I don’t know if Trump can fix them. Not exactly doom and gloom as the democrats would like you to believe.

This is my take on the Democrats plan for the party’s future. First and foremost, they have to get rid of Trump by any means possible. That part worked for them in Trump’s first term. Then the Joe Biden administration came in and opened up the border in hope of securing that victory by allowing anyone and everyone unvetted, undocumented and (no due process) to speed up the entries. Some day they will be allowed to vote and or their numbers will be used for representation. If not, what other purpose?

With no due process, they allowed more than 10 million to enter in four years and they lost more than 300,000 children. The Democratic leadership, activist and protesters never concerned themselves with the children. They were just casualties of the plan, nothing more. The bigger concern, keep the numbers.

That invasion had backfired and gave Trump 77 million votes and the mandate to remove them.

Now the Democrats are whining about due process and splitting up families. The parents of those 300,000 lost children paid strangers to take them, that’s on them. Let’s put the blame squarely on the back of Democrats for all of the rage with ICE. If they hadn’t opened up the boarders, we wouldn’t be talking about this.

The states and cities that are cooperating with ICE and following Federal law, have no need to drag people from cars, tear gas paid activist, and protesters. It’s the sanctuary states, cities, and Democratic leadership that are set up to protect (illegal immigrants) and criminals.

They are promoting and inciting the violence with their hate speech and using the activists and criminals to do the dirty work. They go after ICE, threaten their families and wonder why they have to wear masks.

That’s the Democrat way. The once proud Democratic party is now the party of activists, protesters, and rioters. We’ve all seen it for years on TV. The Democrats finally got what they wanted after being warned about all of their rhetoric, the death of Renee Nicole Good in Minnesota. This is the new rally cry.

They believe this might be the only way to take Trump down since everything else has failed.

In short, they created the nightmare and then blame the other side. This is all driven by TDS. Every elected Democrat from Chuck Schumer on down to governor Tim Walz and mayor Jacob Frey is partly responsible for Good’s death. They all have promoted to their followers for months, you need to do more than peaceful protest, get in their face. Now that they got what they wanted and Trump has threatened more enforcement, they are asking their followers to be peaceful. A little late for that!

Maybe it’s just me, but it seems like a lot of the footage involves women activists and protesters. That too is probably the planned optic that the Democrats wanted. This is what happens when you tell your local police to stay away and hide out. Just let things play out. Local police won’t even assist parishioners from radical ICE activist during mass. If that crying chief had any dignity, he should resign! How Shameful!
