In one of the Republican debates, March 3rd, 2016, Trump defended his manhood from Marco Rubio’s japes. In the debate, on national television, he gave the nation a guarantee that his manhood was not a problem. I have the video below for reference. Trump made debate history defending his phallic fortitude.
But recently, President Trump, during an also televised negotiation with top Congressional Democrats, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer, threatened to shut the government down over funds for the border wall.
As much of the nation watched, President Trump appeared strong in the negotiation, in both words and comfortability with his position. He even expressed willingness to accept blame for the impending partial shutdown. Currently as of this writing, the House Passed a funding bill with $5.7 billion for border-security, this specified amount can be used for the unspecified border wall. Pundits have been noted that the measure is doomed to fail in the Senate.
House Republicans show they can pass their funding bill with $5 + billion for Trump's wall (contrary to what Pelosi said in the Oval Office last week while goading Trump).
Now this is expected to go to the Senate tomorrow and fail.
And then… no one knows.— Tal Kopan (@TalKopan) December 21, 2018
Big win for House GOP passing border wall funding bill, but why didn't they do this earlier? Chances of a shutdown are very high now. Both sides dug in.

So if the bill fails which I will put the odds at 70%, the government will go into a shutdown. So the question then becomes: does President Trump have the balls to stick to his guns? Reading Ben Shapiro’s words, he believes that the President will claim victory following a bill similar to what the House of Representatives just passed.
The smart money is on additional border funding without funding explicitly delegated to the border wall. Democrats don’t want to hand Trump a victory, feel that they have him over a barrel — after all, he’s been wishy-washy on the continuing resolution from the beginning — and believe that a government shutdown will be blamed on Trump anyway. That means they’re likely to either drive a hard bargain or refuse a bargain outright. After all, they take over Congress in the new year anyway.
Time is not on the Democrats side, but the agenda of the Left would be far more devastated by a shutdown of less than 20% of the government than that of the right. Trump has the executive authority to keep this stalemate going. The protracted stalemate, rallies Trump’s voter base because he is following through on his chief campaign promise.
The Democrats can rally for preventing a wall because they want open borders and illegal immigrants voting, but this isn’t a nationally viable strategy, not that Americans will remember or be swayed by these events in 2020. If Trump gets the border wall he campaigned on, he is miles closer to the finish line in 2020. American voters will reward his testicular fortitude in a gridlocked Congress with an approval rating far lower than Trump’s own, not that these metrics are reliable anyway.
President Trump can better his position just by not signing anything until the wall is funded. All it takes is balls. So far it seems that Paul Ryan and other House Republicans borrowed some of his, but the question won’t be answered until this saga is ended. We are about to find out whether Donald Trump is a honey-badger or a Paul Ryan.

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We just launched a new GiveSendGo page. We also have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
