Donald J. Trump never left.

He never quit. He never faltered. He never took one step back.

And he took this entire country, and this entire movement, and millions and millions of people on his back, and he said, “if you follow me, I will lead this country to a golden age of epic proportions.”

And now, after winning not just the presidency, but all seven swing states, not to mention the popular vote – the first time a Republican has won it in 20 years – he has a mandate. Not just from the American people, but from heaven itself. And the reason for that is obvious: we were just right, and they were just wrong. […]

The decision follows a 2023 lawsuit filed against Colorado Governor Jared Polis by two individuals under the age of 21 and the organization Rocky Mountain Gun Owners, who argued that the law violated the Second Amendment. The legislation raised the minimum age for purchasing a firearm in Colorado from 18 to 21 and criminalized the sale or purchase of guns by individuals under 21, with exceptions only for active-duty military members and police officers.

Initially, a district court judge issued an injunction in August 2023 to prevent the law from taking effect. However, in a 90-page opinion, the appeals court determined that the case did not meet the requirements for an injunction, stating the district court “abused its discretion” by granting one.

“The best reading is that (the law) is presumptively lawful because the aged-based condition or qualification on the conduct it proscribes falls outside the scope of the plain text of the Second Amendment,” the judges wrote in their opinion.

He stated that more of a margin is needed to prepare for any kind of “major intervention” or voting manipulations. In other words, Trump needs to win big.

“So I think things are looking good, but if we think we have it in the bag, that’s almost like the death curse in terms of the mindset going in in this final stretch,” Beattie stated, adding that “the main thing to talk about, the most egregious thing, the darkest thing, is that there’s clearly a repeated, ongoing effort to assassinate Trump before the election.”

Two known assassination attempts have taken place against the former president within two months from each other. While Thomas Matthew Crook’s July 13 attempt clipped Trump’s ear and killed firefighter Corey Comperatore, Ryan Wesley Routh’s September 15 attempt had been carefully planned and involved the potential of a $150,000 bounty on the former president’s head.

“There’s no reason to think that that’s going to stop right now and not continue through into Election Day. So that’s also very much on the table, not to mention whatever else the regime might have up its sleeve,” Beattie said. […]
