President Trump at NRA convention in Indiana

Trump delivers a barn burner. Enjoy this while he is president. You will not see the likes of this again in your lifetime. It is simply unmatchable.

In Trump's prepared speech, not his riffing or asides, he mentions again coup and and overthrow. He characterizes what the bureaucracy did to him as "corruption at the highest level. A disgrace. Spying, surveillance, trying for an overthrow."

He disassociates from the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty that Obama signed in his last days in office.
This treaty threatened your subjugate. And you know exactly what’s going on here. Your rights and your constitutional and international rules and restrictions and regulations. 
Under my administration, we will never surrender American sovereignty to anyone. We will never allow foreign bureaucrats to trample on your Second Amendment freedom. And that is why my administration will never ratify the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty. I hope you’re happy.
He had a message prepared asking the Senate to discontinue the treaty ratification process and return the rejected treaty back to him where he will dispose of it. With the NRA convention as witness he whipped out the portfolio and signed it right there in the convention hall live. Then joked about people wanting the pen. "Can you believe these People? Should I give it to them?"

I had the laptop with me in another room listening while working on a garden project and had to push away from it to allow room for cracking up laughing. God, this man is naturally funny. Honestly, he takes a total drag of a deadly serious subject, foreigners and Democrat administration busting their moves on American sovereignty including our Bill of Rights, and makes it fun and hilarious.

His audience went nuts. Truly, they love this amazing unique president.

His description of patriots that includes an American history tale I had not heard before is touching. Commenters to this video said they went back to it to show their teenage children who listened intently with great interest and took the message to heart.

Apparently, at the 4:00 mark someone threw a cell phone at the president and it took the Secret Service some time to respond. The NRA crowd did not pummel the person. Now people are thinking since it took so long maybe the security team needs to be rotated out. Gatewaypundit.

The introduction is warm, short, and very nice. I skipped past Trump's shoutouts of other people involved with this. (That's why I never know who anyone is.)



Best of all, it pisses off the right people, and does this immediately. He triggers precisely the people most in need of triggering and they waste no time in responding.



I believe we're in for another such rally type speech tomorrow as Trump skips the White House Correspondents Association dinner. He's ordered his staff not to attend it as well. 

I didn't think it possible, but I swear, Trump is getting even better at this. Now he has something to be actually angry about and he appears to be channeling that anger to perfecting his stump speeches. He needs the House to continue his warpath of destruction. Whoever wrote this speech knows Trump as well as Trump knows himself. It's Trump at his hottest. 

As I say, what we're seeing now will never be seen again. Trump is a once in a lifetime phenomenon. All that follows Trump will seem mundane by comparison.

If Trump has been taking names Susan Rice could be getting nervous. There might be consequences for the manner in which she got rich while working in government.

Trump polished all this in the real estate biz.

But Dad's right. Trump is now in a position to make the lives of those who tried to do it to him absolute Hell.
