Oh, the Biblical irony of Trump’s win
Anyone with even a minimal exposure to the Bible knows that miracles happen and that God operates in strange ways. Well, it is no miracle that Donald Trump won re-election to the presidency, because the radicalized anti-America Democrat Party has estranged over half the country, but it is quite richly ironic that Trump won this election.
The irony is that had the 2020 election not been stolen, Trump woud have been leaving office right now. Who knows how effective he would have been in his second consecutive term, given that he was still barely keeping his head above the DC quicksand when the 2020 election was held.
Now, however? Well, after surviving four years in the political wilderness, being cut to the bone over and over by cruel and evil people with their lawless lawfare, Trump has emerged even stronger, smarter, more experienced, with truly fine-tuned, finely honed political instincts and skills.
If people thought Trump was tough and determined in 2020, well, I suspect they ain’t seen nothin’ yet. Trump is likely going to absolutely roar back into office like a cleansing tornado or an angry dominant lion scattering his foes in all directions, because he now knows where the power buttons are, the skeletons lie, the bureaucracy’s weak points, and where the really dangerous people are located. If Trump doesn’t do a complete and utter, devastating, crushing re-make of the DC bureaucracy, then he learned nothing from his time in office and in the wilderness.
Trump could not have become the truly shining knight in white armor without having gone through all of the torment and abuse he experienced. His time out of power in brutal conditions tested him, improved him, and made him into an incredible warrior for democracy and for We, The People.
And that is the irony. Rich, rich irony. Had the DC Swamp just left him in office another four years back in 2020, he probably would have floundered along, hamstrung by the rogue bureaucracy and the corrupt Uniparty. Now…change is coming, bitches. And it was you lawless, thieving Democrats and Uniparty people who made Trump into who and what he now is.
God is indeed great. A greater comeback and national salvation story could not be dreamed of. Except in the Bible.
irony, whoosh, right over someone’s head
Him: “I am sorry, Josh, but we have decided not to invite you to our wedding.”
Me: “WHAT?! After thirty-some years of close friendship, I can’t come to your wedding? For real?”
Him: “For real. I’m sorry, I know it must bother you…”
Me: “You are damned right it bothers me! How about Viv, can she at least be in attendance?”
Him: “Sorry, no. I know, I know, it’s weird, but we both feel like you guys just do not belong there. I mean, your views are pretty right wing, really pretty bigoted, to be honest.”
Me: “Bigoted, me? Her? How? Are you forgetting that you came out of the closet at my apartment at Penn State? We have been close friends for a really long time, and I really care about you, and so does Viv, which you already know, I don’t need to say it, and we care about you and don’t give a damn that you are gay. How can we be bigoted against gays if we are willing to come to your gay wedding in the first place and celebrate with you?!”
Him: <crickets> <silence>
Lesson 1: Minds only work when they are open. Political correctness has shut down minds everywhere. Instead of opening people up and making them inquisitive and interested in other views, PC turns people into mindless judgmental bigots who hate even their oldest friends, for the big crime of not agreeing with them on every little thing.
Lesson 2: Sometimes not being invited to a wedding is a good thing. What the heck was I going to get him or B as a gift, anyhow? Welp, don’t have to worry about that now!
Irony is not necessarily an important part of a person’s diet, but here, have some
I will take some irony, please, with a heaping side of steaming crow.
Oh, not for me!
I am going to serve it up to those Americans who believe that a Christian baker MUST be coerced by government force to bake a cake for someone he disagrees with politically, but that the owner of the Red Hen restaurant in Lexington, Virginia, has every right, even a duty, to expel and not serve people (Sarah Sanders of the White House staff) she disagrees with politically.
Then there’s a big serving of the same irony and crow for those who believe it’s just fine for public employee unions to force union dues from public employees who do not support the unions’ political activism, but it is just terrible to allow people to contribute their own money to political campaign PACs.
Democrat congresswoman Maxine Waters has become a radical firebrand for angry Socialists across America. She has said some real irony-laden doozies, like “We are sending a message to every Trump-supporting American that you are not welcome here!”
Followed by “We must welcome everyone who crosses our borders, whether they are illegal or not.”
For whatever reason having to do with artificially inflating the voter rolls, Waters and her supporters value illegal invaders over American citizen taxpayers. A lot of Black Americans wonder what that’s all about. But Waters is going to have a big heaping serving of irony n’ crow, too.
Then there’s a plate of irony and crow for Rob Cox, the loose-lipped, itchy trigger finger Reuters editor who late today directly blamed President Trump for a shooting at a newspaper in Annapolis, Maryland, but who has never said a word about the mass shootings and massive amounts of shootings in Baltimore, Chicago, Philadelphia, and other “gun-free” zones. Now the most very politically partisan and fact-challenged Mr. Cox’s integrity and credibility as a “reporter” are shot, as zero facts were available to him at his moment of big mouthed fame, and those facts beginning to subsequently dribble out don’t put Trump or his words at the scene of the crime.
See the symmetry here?
Hypocrisy has a way of catching up with people. That is called irony.
The crow is extra, gratis, on the house, served up by a host of recent US Supreme Court decisions contrary to what the once-irony-deficient here believed.
Two big plates. Hope you enjoy your meal. If you don’t enjoy it, then quit being a hypocrite and stop using double standards.
