Let me take you back to May 31, 2014. Then-President Barack Obama appeared in the Rose Garden to announce the release of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl. Obama traded five Taliban leaders for this deserter who abandoned his post and walked into enemy territory.
The people most upset by this trade for a traitor were conservatives, Middle America, and the soldiers who risked their lives searching for Bergdahl. The media, of course, rallied to Obama’s defense and portrayed Bergdahl as a sympathetic figure.
Then there’s Eddie Gallagher. He was deployed eight times and never once left his post or abandoned his fellow SEALs. His crime was that he was too aggressive in fighting the enemy.
President Trump commuted his sentence, restored Gallagher’s rank and pay, and ensured that he would keep his Trident pin.
A lot of pundits today are chattering about the “rule of law.” I just want to reiterate that the president is at the top of the chain of command. There is no military court or four-star officer at the Pentagon who outranks the commander-in-chief.
Barack Obama set out to satisfy the lawyers and social-justice warriors. His action in the Bergdahl case sent a clear message about what priorities mattered in his America. (And don’t even get me started on Chelsea Manning!)
In contrast, Donald Trump is standing with those in the trenches. He’s taking the handcuffs off of our war fighters and sending the message that the era of no-win wars and ACLU-vetted generals is over.
Who’s in a Cult?
The media are furious that Trump’s conservative base won’t crack and abandon the president. So, now they are referring to Trump supporters as a “cult-like group.” Because, after all, who wants to be in a cult?

Once again, the left is trying to demonize conservatives. You’ve been called “deplorable and irredeemable.” You’ve been called “Nazis,” “bigots,” and “alt-right.” Now you’re members of a cult.
I can think of all kinds of things on the left that are cult-like.
The transgender movement denies science and demands that all of society bend to its wishes by insisting that we call some men “women” or vice versa.

And if you don’t think that “men” can have babies, these so-called “progressives” insist that you should lose your job.
While millions of people are concerned about the environment, the cult of climate change is a religion to many on the left. Like the doomsday cultists of recent years, they are constantly telling us when the world will end, usually in 12 years.
Again, my friends, it’s not just that the left hates Donald Trump. The left hates YOU and everything you stand for. Wear that hatred as a badge of honor, but never forget what the left intends to do if it regains power in 2020.
