So, what’s the deal with Trump?
Two years ago it sounded like he was learning some good lessons from his hard life as a public servant. But today it sounds like he is stumbling. It sounds like he may be reverting to 2020 Trump, or maybe the 2010 Trump. The immature Trump. The overconfident Trump. The unteachable Trump. The know-it-all Trump. The conceited Trump.
One possible answer is what I call "The February Hypothesis," which refers to politics in 2025, and is fully in operation now.
The Deep State knows they cannot beat him now, assassinate him now, or get him off the ballot now.
So how do they control a President Trump? Easy. By manipulating him through flattery, misdirection, traitorous personnel, and controlled blindness. Today it sounds like candidate Trump is already following the deep state script on personnel choices, vaccine narrative, and his own personal identity. Trump is not walking in reality. This means the February 2025 Trump will not govern in reality.
Here’s the February Hypothesis:
The deep state lets him be elected this November. The MAGA folks give three cheers and go back to sleep. The deep state lets him be inaugurated in January. The MAGA folks chant “USA! USA!” and then go back to sleep.
Starting in February, the deep state runs the world through a gratified, clueless, tone-deaf, compromised president. In February the deep state tightens the screws on what he can do and not do. They control all information to him. They control most personnel appointments, like they did in 2021. Especially Defense, State, NSA, DHS, and DOJ. The deep state controls his meetings. They control his executive orders. They tell him he’s the greatest, toughest, MAGA president there ever was, and then feed him the next creative lie.
Imagine how much easier it would be to run the world through a passive puppet than it would be to grapple with the anarchy and chaos of a November 2024 civil war, or a January 2025 civil war. If Trump wins but is not certified, there will be carnage.
But if Trump wins and the deep state fully supports all the next stages of a Trump Inauguration, and if the media are told to fall in line, just imagine the vast control the deep state can wield. Imagine how easy it would be to run the world if all the MAGA folks cheered Trump along at every destructive turn? Simply because he's Trump?
Is this why Donald Trump still brags about the vax, and throws out names of deep state cronies for jobs in the next Trump administration?
“In our capital [Budapest], Jewish families and Jewish communities are safer than anywhere in Europe. There is no other European country where Jewish communities living in the capital enjoy even a comparable sense of security to what they experience in Budapest.”
--Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán
‘It has been over a decade since Western media began (and continues) to demonize Orbán for his uncompromising position against migration. This passage of time is useful, as it allows us to look back and evaluate Orban’s logic for rejecting migration in light of what has actually happened over the last ten years.’

Whoever says that America has never had trouble with Muslims forgets the fact that Jihadis were enslaving, torturing and murdering Americans from the days of our War of Independence. We went into debt to create a navy and Marine Corps to fight these faithful Muslims into a temporary setback and a treaty of peace (which was later broken by them).
"The idea that [Muslims] hate us because of what we're doing in "their region" also founders on the fact that it wouldn't be "their region" at all had it not been for a series of aggressive jihad conquests against peoples who were not waging war against the Muslims or threatening them in any way.
"As The History of Jihad shows, there have been 1,400 uninterrupted years of jihad conquest, and never a period in which there were cordial relations of mutual respect between Muslim and non-Muslim political entities, based on the non-Muslim entities' good behavior in staying out of "their region."
