First and foremost this is about getting involved. Participating.

People explain Trump in many ways. Some opponents call him a liar. Others say he’s selfish. That he’s a con-man. That his supporters are far-right. Stuck in cognitive fallacies.

Those may or may not be true. But none of that explains how he got elected.

That part is simple.

Trump got elected because he led more people to support him than did anyone else.

That is all.

Trump successfully led; others did not.

One might recoil, “Trump is not a leader; what he does is something else.”

In 2024 he proposed that the people elect him President to pursue a direction of policies. 77,303,568 people did just that, many underscoring their loyalty with MAGA paraphernalia. They further elected his party control of the House & Senate, to boot. Call that what you like; he did it more successfully than you, I or anyone else.

One may not like how he led. One may even believe he mis-led.

But regardless, the only alternative to whatever it is he does is for others to lead the people in a better direction.

Leadership.

If you do not support what Trump is doing to the nation, but you yourself aren’t doing anything about it, then he is leading and you are not.

That is something you can fix.

Get involved.

Stand. And Lead.
