Why? Because Trump has a bigger and more immediate threat that he must fight: The Democratic Socialists of America (the \u201cDSA\u201d).<\/p>\n<p>The DSA is a rapidly rising, enthusiastic movement that is open about its desire to destroy America completely. It\u2019s given us Zohran Mamdani in New York City, Katie Wilson of Seattle, and (possibly) Nithya Raman in Los Angeles, along with such \u201cluminaries\u201d as AOC and the Squad, who may run under the Democrat label, but are clearly pure socialists. These candidates are all young, mediagenic, and pumped and primed by big money (much of it grifted from the federal government itself through laundering and fraud).<\/p>\n<p>If these DSA candidates become the primary force behind the Democrat party in Congress in the midterms\u2014both Senate and House\u2014the American experiment is effectively over. Trump\u2019s presidency will become completely impotent, and the DSA\u2019s best candidate for 2028 (as many have warned) will be AOC. Frighteningly, she could win, especially given how aggressively Democrats have introduced massive, third-world fraud into America\u2019s elections.<\/p><p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/interstatelogisticshubs.com\/?p=1822\">The Time Is Now For JD Vance To Disavow Tucker Carlson<\/a><\/p>\n<p>So, stop grumbling about the MOU, which is, as Klavan says, a \u201cceasefire.\u201d And stop worrying about Israel, too. I don\u2019t say that because I don\u2019t care about Israel\u2019s survival. I do. Deeply. My parents were both in the IDF during the Israeli War of Independence, so support for that nation is bred into my bones. However, without America, Israel cannot survive, so Trump must save America from the DSA before he can do anything else. A ceasefire that allows oil prices to drop is one of his major weapons in this fight.<\/p>\n<p>Think of it like the message you hear (over and over and over) on airplanes, when the flight attendants discuss those oxygen masks that may not inflate but will still be delivering oxygen in case of an emergency: \u201cSecure your own mask before assisting others.\u201d<\/p>\n<div><iframe loading=\"lazy\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-G1eljc4ZTU?si=Rya9Dmm9Dvha5I7z&amp;start=118\" title=\"YouTube video player\" width=\"560\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>In other words, if you die, they die.
