Most men, as they age, get wiser. Their speech and conduct reveal this to those who know them.
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?
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has condemned Brussels’s reported plan to fast-track Ukraine into the European Union by 2027 as ‘an open declaration of war’ against Hungary. He warned that proposals to remove his veto—through electoral change or stripping Hungary’s voting rights—amount to a direct assault on national sovereignty and democratic choice.

The first jihadist assault conquered Spain in the 8th Century AD.
From Spain the Muslims launched a campaign to defeat France, and then the rest of Europe. But French and other allies stopped the Muslim armies at Tours in 732 AD. Without Charles Martel as the defending commander, Europe almost certainly would have been lost.
In 1683 the Muslims again assembled an army big enough to attack all of Western Europe, this time from the East. Vienna would be gateway in. Vienna was besieged, outnumbered, and near defeat and capture.
But another military hero, John III Sobieski, the Polish Christian king, rallied the militaries of several European kingdoms and routed the Muslims, who fled in retreat. Europe was saved again. But was Sobieski honored for this? Almost. A 26-foot high statue commissioned to memorialize the hero, and the need to confront Islam. But for years the statue has been hidden in storage in Poland. Why? Because Viennese politicians fear that honoring a man who ...
Greece’s Minister of Migration and Asylum, Thanos Plevris, has announced a new legislative framework targeting the operation of illegal places of worship, emphasizing that non-compliance will lead to the immediate revocation of residency permits. In Agios Nikolaos, a Mosque was sealed and the alleged imam had his residency permit revoked and faces deportation.
