Professor Toto - Trump The Dictator? Trump the Strongman? YES & HERE IS WHY !!!! He was the dream of our Founders

Trump The Dictator? Trump the Strongman? YES & HERE IS WHY !!!! He was the dream of our Founders - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNoDVTczwdc Transcript: (00:00) I plan to uncover a great truth tonight that maybe most probably you've never known, you've never considered. The title of the monologue is Trump Takes the Wheel. If you'll look at the graphic on my left, you'll see a boat filled with politicians. They're all trying to get the boat to go forward, but they're so busy arguing with one another that the boat is not going anywhere. (00:46) Then Donald Trump takes the wheel while they bicker over whether or not he has the authority to take the wheel. Now the subtitle tonight is why this strong man is salvation to a nation. Anytime you use words like salvation, people immediately think theology. Well, I can't allow ignorance to control my speech. (01:23) I know exactly what I'm saying. Why is this strong man salvation to a nation? If you'll look at that boat with all of those people in the boat, politicians, Democrat and Republican, there's a storm coming. You can see the wave starting to rock the boat a little. There's a storm coming. And if somebody does not take the wheel, then you're going to go down while you're trying to figure it out. (02:03) And tonight, this lesson is going to help you understand why Donald Trump looks like a dictator, why Donald Trump looks like a strong man, even a tyrant, maybe. I believe when this class is over, you're going to see Donald Trump in a way that you've never seen him before. I plan to prove to you tonight something you never learned in school. (02:37) I plan to show you that Donald Trump was predicted rather by the founding fathers of our nation. I plan to show you that our founding fathers prayed for a strong man like Donald Trump. that in fact they wanted a strong man like Donald Trump. Someone that would bring salvation to a nation. Someone that would cut through the noise and steer the ship when the crew is too busy fighting with each other to even row out of harbor. (03:24) We're going to be talking tonight a lot about history. I love history because if you know history, you know the future. Now, we were just talking about France moments ago and what's happening in the nation of France. Well, back in the late 1700s, democracy collapsed in France. It was called the French Revolution. (03:50) What caused that to happen? A division in the nation. One half of France wanted the guillotine. The other half wanted a monarchy. And the nation bled itself into a stalemate. The nation was so divided that it wasn't moving. It was stuck. Who rose up at that moment? Napoleon Bonapart. Not because he was voted in as Mr. Nice Guy, but because the French people had reached the point where they could not govern themselves any longer. (04:37) They were in a gridlock that begged for a breakthrough. My fellow Americans, democracy without unity is paralysis. Most Americans think we have a democracy. If that's what you have, the moment you cannot unite, you're paralyzed completely. It's like a marriage where two spouses dig in their heels. Neither one is giving in. (05:10) And what happens? The whole family collapses because we're at a stalemate. What's needed when a marriage gets at that point? What's needed when you're at a stalemate? A third party, someone with authority in your life to help restore order. So you go and seek someone to come in and do what you cannot do for your marriage anymore to set it in order to call you both back to some compromise. (05:49) Now, let's fast forward to America where we as a nation are in the same situation as the French were in 1700 and as they are again today. Red against blue, traditional against woke, patriots against globalist. The machinery of our government has seized up. Now we have dummies in the House of Congress. (06:26) Elon and on this side you've got Marjorie Trader Green. You have this thing going on in our government of no respect for one another, no courtesy, just Congress bickering like children. Our courts are waffling. Our states are in rebellion. Our cities like Chicago tonight are in open rebellion. It's gridlock, pure and simple. And then who enters that picture? A man that we called for, Donald Trump. (07:10) because truly he's not Republican or Democrat. He's a third party. And we call him in to break the deadlock. The one man with the audacity to grab the wheel and say enough. We're going this way. And then we have a strong man in office. By executive order, here's what the strong man has done. Number one, he's restored military greatness with the stroke of a pen. (07:45) Removed sodomites from the military with the stroke of a pen. Refusing to let our armed forces be weakened by woke experiments just because he took the wheel. promoting the nuclear family, standing before the world yesterday and saying that America needs religion, that we need faith. (08:14) He took the wheel reminding America that children need fathers and mothers and stability. And then he took the wheel and said, "No gender experiments in America." And then he took the wheel and defended tearing down the walls of secular tyranny that tried to erase prayer in America and faith from the public square. (08:43) He took the wheel and stood up to foreign enemies, showing the world that America is not a playground for Iran, China, or anyone else. Now, he's not perfect, but like Churchill and Napoleon, like Netanyahu, like every lion that history has raised up, he is the strong man that a fractured America demands. Now, if you don't agree with me tonight, that's okay. (09:21) I plan to help cure your sickness. We're going to do it tonight with truth. Let me give you a very uncomfortable truth tonight that you need to hear. Democracy, knock. Democracy is a failed institution. It's completely failed. Democracy is a failed institution. When the people are evenly divided as we are, when the people rule, they rule in halves. (10:06) Nothing moves. It's gridlock forever. There was a group of men that knew this day was coming. Brilliant men that had studied world history. They were our founding fathers. They knew this day was coming for America. They foresaw it. And that's why they built checks and balances and envisioned a republic, not a democracy, led by a strong executive, not a direct democracy mob. (10:51) And right now, Donald Trump embodies the very design that our founding fathers created. He has restored normaly and a society ripped apart. Don't let the media scare you when they call him a strong man, a dictator, a cult leader. That's always the word they reach for. The truth is our society has become so effeminite and triggered. (11:24) Strong men are the number one enemy in America, especially white men. If you're a strong white man, you are public enemy number one. If you're a strong any color man, you're public enemy number two. There's something very threatening to our society of wimps from a strong leader, a strong man. So, our media takes that, applies it to Donald Trump. (11:56) He's a cult leader because people love him. He's a strong man. He's a tyrant, a dictator. But I'm going to teach you tonight, sometimes strength is the only cure for paralysis. Sometimes leadership must look like command. When a democracy stalls, when division paralyzes a nation, only a lion can roar loud enough to get the herd moving again. (12:35) And whether you love him or hate him, Donald Trump has roared. I told you when I was writing my book, I was thinking about that phrase and suddenly it hit me that indeed the lion has to roar louder than the herd. And America is now moving again. We're on the move because the lion has roared. So, I want to teach you right now, starting at this very moment, how our founding fathers wished for and predicted the rise of Donald Trump. (13:19) What did our founding fathers really want for America? That's a question we're going to ask tonight. I want you to prepare to have everything you thought you knew about America's founding to be shattered tonight. Everything you thought you knew ends in about 5 to 10 minutes. Okay? Because there is a dirty little secret from 1787 right after 1776. (13:52) There is a dirty little secret that Toto is going to pull back the curtain on tonight and we're going to peek into that time period and we're going to find out if our founding fathers wanted a man like Donald John Trump. The truth is the dirty little secret is this. Our most brilliant founders never wanted a democracy. (14:23) They wanted a strong man. They wanted a king. Not just any king. They wanted George Washington to be America's first monarch. Many people don't realize this. They don't teach this in school. George Washington refused to become the first king. Only after he refused the monarchy did they have to create the next best thing. They designed a system. (15:07) If Washington would not become a king, they designed a system that would one day inevitably produce a king. Tonight's class is going to shatter everything you thought you knew. They created a government that would naturally produce a king, a strong man in leadership because they knew better than anyone that a democracy is a death sentence for any civilization. (15:45) They understood that. Tonight, I would like for you to travel with me to June the 18th, 1787. Where are we going? The Constitutional Convention. It's deadlocked. The small states were in war with the big states. The South was fighting the North. The whole American experiment is about to collapse before it ever got started. (16:22) There was a great chance that America would never have formed that day. In the midst of all this stands up one of the most brilliant minds of his generation, Alexander Hamilton. Yes, the man on your $10 bill. He stands up and delivers what historians call the most radical speech in American political history. Do you know how long his speech was? Six hours in a building with no air conditioning. (17:00) I've been in that building. He stood there. When I walked in that building, oh, I sensed the reverence of those men that stood in that gallery. Six hours he stood there and Alexander Hamilton laid out his vision for America's future. But here's what they don't teach you in school. Hamilton spoke for six hours for the need of a monarchy, not a democracy or a republic. (17:42) For six hours, Hamilton preached the need of a strong man, the need for some man to take the wheel on a boat where everyone's bickering. Let me read you his exact words. May I do that tonight? Recorded by James Madison. James Madison wrote these words down. And Alexander Hamilton said the British government was the best in the world and that he doubted whether anything short of monarchy would work in America. (18:30) He prophesied 250 years ago. He warned our nation that nothing short of a king would work in the United States of America. Now, I want you to think about that. The man who helped write our beloved Constitution believed that a king was superior to anything that America could come up with. But Hamilton did not stop there. (19:04) He proposed something that would make every American gasp. He proposed a president elected for life with absolute veto power over Congress. That's right. Your great founding fathers never wanted what we have today. This was a nightmare scenario to them. The one we live in, the one they created, they knew it would become absolutely impossible for free people to govern themselves. (19:51) Hamilton wanted an American king with no term limits, no legislative override, one man until death with the power to stop any law that he did not like. Do you know what Hamilton called a pure democracy? He called it a disease. his exact words, I quote, "The people, sir, are a great beast." Listen to those words. Listen to what Alexander Hamilton said. (20:31) "The people, sir, whoever he's speaking to is a great beast. They will devour themselves." That was not a throwaway comment by some Willy Wonka on the side of the street. This was the carefully considered opinion of one of the most brilliant minds in his generation. According to Hamilton, me and you were too stupid, too emotional, and too moblike to govern ourselves. (21:09) He said, "We are a great beast driven." And that's a fact. Just look at how people that love Donald Trump turn on him like that. We're driven by emotion. We don't study the principle and the doctrine and the platform. We run after the headlines. The establishment will tell you that Hamilton was just an outlier. He was all by himself. He was too extreme. (21:44) That his monarchy proposal was rejected and forgotten. That's what they want you to believe. They're lying to you. Because what Hamilton proposed was not radical. It was inevitable. Listen to me. Hamilton was used by God 250 years ago to tell you that we would devour ourselves without a strong man. (22:16) So what he said was not radical. It was inevitable. And every president since George Washington has moved us closer to exactly what Hamilton envisioned, rule by one strong man. Hamilton was not alone in wanting a king. There was an entire movement to crown George Washington as America's first monarch. (22:51) and it came much closer to being successful than you've been told. Let me teach you about Colonel Lewis Nola. He was a patriot whose letter to Washington in 1782 nearly changed the course of history. Nicola was not some fringe radical. He was a respected military officer, a founding member of the American Philosophical Society, and he spoke for a large portion of the Continental Army when he wrote this letter to George Washington. (23:37) And I quote, "Republican governments have never been able to support themselves. Some people have so connected the ideas of tyranny and monarchy as to find it very difficult to separate the two. But certainly they are totally different. He's trying to convince Washington that tyranny is not the same as monarchy. (24:15) Rule by a strong man is not the same as rule by a demented man. And he's writing this letter to convince George Washington to be a king. Now Nola made an offer that would have transformed America and I quote, "May it not be reserved to you to give such a proof of the benefits of the monarchy." This colonel is begging George Washington to show the world what a good monarchy would look like. (25:01) To show the world what a strong man leading our nation could do to benefit our nation. He was asking Washington to become King George I of America. And here's the part they do not teach you in school. Washington did not refuse. When you hear this taught in school, if you ever hear this, they'll act like Washington refused. (25:31) But that's not the truth. He thought about it for a long time because even Washington understood what every honest observer of democracy understands. Popular democracies lead to chaos. Washington was willing to become a monarch to stop democracy. He considered it. He contemplated it. Now, the movement was just getting started for a monarchy in the United States of America. (26:08) Maybe you've never heard of the Society of Cincinnati. I want to explain what it is. They were an organization of revolutionary war officers. Those men that fought in the revolution, officers of that revolution. They started this society of Cincinnati. This was a hereditary society. Membership passed from father to son. (26:42) The only way you could be part of this society is your father's fought in the revolution and therefore the honor would be bestowed upon the preceding generations. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, an American aristocracy. They were the aristocratic class in that day. They were called America's nobility. They were creating the foundation for a permanent ruling class in America. (27:17) Exactly what you must have for a constitutional monarchy. They were setting America up for the government of Great Britain here in the United States. But there's another group of people that you may not know about and they were known as the Newber Conspiracy. They were Continental Army officers. They were unpaid and they were angry. (27:53) They gathered together to discuss marching to Washington and installing George Washington as the king. They were not asking, they were going to force it. They were prepared to march to Congress, dissolve a civilian government, and install Washington as monarch by a military coup. It was only at that moment that George Washington gave a speech and said he would not become a monarch under those terms by force. (28:42) That's the only reason George Washington denounced that offer of being the first king. He did not want it to be done by force. Once he made that speech, all the men left very disappointed. Now, these are military officers, okay? People like General Flynn, all right? People that know how governments work. They left disappointed. Do you know why? They genuinely believed without a strong man, America would not work. (29:20) They had seen democracy's failure firsthand, the inability to pay their soldiers, the incompetence of Congress, the chaos of a popular government. They had seen it with their own eyes. They wanted a king because they knew democracy never works. Now, Hamilton and a few military officers favored monarchy. But the truth is far more shocking than that. (29:54) America's intellectual elite overwhelmingly preferred strong executive rule over democracy. Let's start with one of those elites. His name was Governor Morris. The man you're looking at on your screen right now is the man that physically wrote that Constitution that you love so much. You're looking at the man who physically wrote the Constitution. (30:30) Governor Morris looked at democracy and saw disaster. He said that anyone that lives in a democracy are poor reptiles. In other words, they kill one another. That's what one of our founding fathers called you if you were part of a democracy, a poor reptile. Now Morris was very influential and he was not quiet about his preferences. (31:08) He wanted also a president for life appointed not by the people but by electors with near kingly power. It's because of him that we have an electoral college. He did not want the president elected by the poor reptiles, the plebeians, those that were too emotional to think and too desperate for a check from the government to vote for the right person. (31:48) And he got part of what he wanted. But now, General Morris is not the only one. There's John Adams and John J. John J was the first Supreme Court justice of the Supreme Court. Co-author of the Federalist Papers that's on my desk or my bookshelf. He was America's most respected founder. Here's what he said about democracy. (32:22) the violence and the fury of the multitude. John J believed that when you let people vote, you get violence and fury. Not wisdom, not justice, just chaos and destruction. You know, in my ministry, people wonder why I run it the way I do. Now, I know why. Yeah, I found out that we was right all along. There's got to be clear leadership, strong leadership. (32:55) Why? Anything else leads to chaos, violence, fury, not wisdom, not justice, but chaos and destruction. That was what John J said. And he was right. He was right. Look around today. Just look around. Look at the riots. Look at the polarization, the hatred between fellow Americans. That, beloved, is democracy in action. Welcome, poor reptiles, to what we created. (33:28) But perhaps the most revealing case of all is our second president, John Adams. He openly advocated for a hereditary state. Think about that. He wanted senators for life with their positions passed down to their sons. He wanted an aristocracy. And it was him that proposed the president should have the power to appoint all judges for life and control the entire executive branch without congressional interference. (34:15) That's the only way government will work is the way they proposed it. John Adams was so convinced of democracy's failure that he wrote, "Democracy never lasts long. It will waste, exhaust, and murder itself." There never was a democracy that did not commit suicide. fundamentally selfdestructive or in other words would become ungovernable. (34:50) In public Jefferson wrote about the rights of men but in private he admired enlightened despatism. He praised Napoleon Bonapart's efficiency. He understood that democracy produced talk while monarchy produced results. Now here is where the vision of a monarchy gets very clever on the part of our founding fathers. (35:24) They knew they could not openly install a king. Why? Because we had just fought to run away from a king. Right? So they knew that they could not just install a king. So they created something more subtle than a king but equally effective. It's called the electoral college. Now the establishment tries to tell you the electoral college was about protecting the small states. Nonsense. (36:01) It was about protecting the country from democracy. Our founding fathers were desperate for a monarchy without having a king. They desperately wanted to create a king in hiding. Alexander Hamilton said the immediate election should be made by men most capable. He's talking about the presidential election. It should be a small number of people selected by their fellow citizens from the general mass who will be most likely to possess the information and the discernment required. (36:53) I love this man. I think like this man, Alexander Hamilton. Ordinary people are too dumb to get the information and discern the truth. They're too stupid to choose their leaders directly. That's what he said about society. So we need educated elites to make the real decisions. That's why my friends listen to me carefully. (37:24) What happened in 2020? The whole electoral college thing when people say no, you got to go vote the way the people tell you to vote. That's hogwash. The electoral college is to vote as they saw fit because this small group of people would get the information. They would study the budget. (37:50) They would study the platform and they would vote on discerning information, not from watching a TV commercial. The electoral college was not democratic. It was anti-democratic. It was designed to ensure that smart people only voted for the president and they would overrule stupid people. You know what that sounds like, my fellow Americans? A constitutional monarchy. (38:27) Because in Britain, the people can vote. But it's only the lords, the educated aristocrats who know better than the about the issues of the day that vote in a monarch. James Madison was even more explicit. In federalist paper number 10, he wrote that pure democracy leads to violence and confusion and that the constitution was designed to break and control the violence of the people. (39:05) The constitution was designed to stop the people. Notice that word break and control. The Constitution was designed to control the masses. Madison knew in a direct democracy, the majority would eventually plunder the minority. So, he designed a system with enlightened leadership, people that's got brains that could check the popular will. (39:40) That's not a democracy. That's a guided republic, one step away from a monarchy. Now, here's the proof that the founders got exactly what they wanted. Every expansion of democratic participation has weakened America. Watch this. I'm going to prove to you right now that your founding fathers were correct. For example, every time we have expanded voting rights, we have dumbed down America a little bit more. (40:27) Let's talk about 1913 direct election of senators. Do you know that originally senators were not elected by the people? They were elected by the legislators of their states. People that knew government. There was no popular vote of a senator. That was intentionally designed that way by your founding fathers. Legislators acted as an educated buffer between popular passion and Senate composition until the 17th amendment. (41:14) When state legislators chose their senators, they picked experienced statesmen, moderates that could work across party lines, policy experts rather than charismatic populist, representatives of state interest rather than their own reelection interest. Longterm thinking. That's why I've always told you I'm against term limits for senators. (41:46) Now, not for Congress, but for senators. I've always been against term limits. Somewhere you've got to have some governing ability in our government. Somewhere you got to have some wisdom. This in allowed senators to take a more detached view of the issues that came before the Congress because if they're not directly accountable to the voters in shortterm election cycles, then they can detach themselves and think and vote to quit raising the debt ceiling. (42:31) But if they don't raise it, they go back to the people. They're going to get voted out of office because some checks are going to get cut off. They could make unpopular but necessary decisions. They could focus on long-term national interest. They could resist populist pressure, engage in genuine compromise. Let me give you an example, shall I? Let me show you what our founding fathers feared. (43:04) Direct control of our government by the people. Let's take this whole Jeffrey Epstein deal. We elected a man and his cabinet to govern. The only problem is we won't let them do it. We want to govern. We want to see the files. We want to see it all and you're too dumb to know what you're seeing. We want direct control. (43:36) That's the rule of the mob. Whereas you have Pam Bondi, an experienced prosecutor that's looked at the so-called evidence and said, "We can't win this in court. We don't have enough evidence. If we release people's names that are innocent, it's going to destroy lives." A little wisdom, a little common sense. But no, in a democracy, give us the files, and what are you going to do with them? Somebody's got to prosecute. (44:11) There's something in the nature of the beast that just wants blood. We say we want justice, but that's really not what we want. If we wanted justice, we would get it from our justice department. We don't want justice. We want blood. And we want to directly govern ourselves. Our founding fathers said this day would come. (44:43) Our senators could govern without walking through the airport and having us screaming in their faces. like animals. I believe one of the founders said the people are a great beast. Well, 1913 changed all that. The 17th Amendment. Now we're going to directly vote in our senators. And guess what that did? It destroyed America. (45:14) It gave us campaign finance corruption. Once the senators need popular votes, they became dependent on fundraising from special interest who could finance statewide campaigns, mediadriven politics, partisan base appeal, shortterm thinking. And what's the modern consequences of that? Filibuster battles. confirmation wars, gridlock, fundraising obsession. (45:56) There was no fundraising obsession before 1930 when the legislators picked a great person, sent him up there. And this is exactly what the founders predicted would happen with direct democracy. They designed the Senate to be anti-democratic precisely because they knew democracy produces chaos, not deliberation. And the 17th Amendment proved their point. (46:26) Every expansion of democratic participation has weakened American governance. And then we had the suffrage movement. And then we had primary elections that we never had before. And now we're going to open it up a little bit wider now cuz we want everybody to vote. Guess who we're going to open it up to now? The illegal aliens. Let everybody vote. (46:57) You poor whippers snapper. We want deocracy. It's demonic. It's beastly. The wider we open the voting block, the more dumbness that comes in. Amen. I'm trying to move right along here. Now, let me say this. I want you to think about this so-called first of all, James Madison and Federalist Paper 51 revealed the founders's true genius. (47:35) I'll show that to you if I may. He said, "Ambition must be made to counter ambition." Madison had a solution, a large republic where educated elites could filter the popular will through complex institutions. They were not creating democracy. They were creating institutional gridlock that would force Americans. Listen to what I'm about to tell you. (48:13) Hold on. For those of you that are falling asleep, listen to what I'm about to tell you. There is a reason that the founders created institutional gridlock because they knew it would force Americans to choose a strong man when the system broke down. And they would all get what they secretly wanted from the beginning, a monarchy, a strong man that would rise above the institutions. (48:54) I hope you stay with me tonight. A man that could rise above the institutions, the Congress, the Supreme Court, the Senate, and could take the will and save a nation from democracy. Think about it. The separation of powers, checks and balances, federalism, all of that creates paralysis in normal times. The only way to break the deadlock of the separation of powers, checks and balances, federalism is through strong executive action. (49:38) That's why you see Donald Trump signing executive orders like a dictator because somebody had to take the wheel and pull us out of this gridlock created by our founding fathers. And they created it to produce a king that would take the will and lead America in that time of crisis. Think about it. The founders had a hidden design. (50:08) They designed it to fail democratically so that it would succeed monarchally. Designed this government to fail so that a strong man like George Washington could rise and save America from democracy. In every crisis, a strong president rises and he rises above Congress. Congress becomes irrelevant. The courts step aside and one man takes charge. (50:50) The Civil War, Abraham Lincoln, I'm going there in a minute. the Great Depression, World War, 911, COVID 19. It is in all of these times, every single one of them, that the strong man rises, Lincoln, FDR, Bush, Trump, and they govern not through the regular checks and balances. They take executive action while Congress debates and delays. (51:30) That is not a bug in the American system. That is a feature. The founders built a machine that automatically produces strong man leadership when democracy fails. And it always does. So what did the founders create? A constitutional monarchy without a king. Think about it. This man is the commanderin-chief of the military. What is the king of Great Britain? A commanderin-chief of the military. (52:11) He's the chief executive of the government. What's the king of Great Britain? Chief executive of the entire government. The president is the head of state for all international relations. What is the king of Great Britain? And the appointment power over the judiciary. This man is a king. The president's the most powerful person in the world. (52:38) It was designed that way. That's not a democratic office when you're commanderin-chief. That's an elected monarchy with term limits. And by the way, those term limits are breaking down. FDR served four terms. Trump is back for a secive second non-consecutive term. The presidents are cracking. The founders gave us the form of democracy with the substance of monarchy. (53:12) Popular elections provide legitimacy while the executive power provides effectiveness. George Washington that was our first king. That man governed like a king. He created the cabinet system. He established executive privilege that would withhold information from Congress. He issued executive proclamations. It had the force of law. (53:47) He used the military to suppress the whiskey rebellion like Trump is doing in Chicago. He conducted foreign policy without congressional oversight. Washington was not constrained by democracy. He was empowered by it. The people's mandate gave Washington royal authority in a republican form. And every president since him has expanded that authority because your founding fathers designed it that way. (54:26) They knew they would eventually get a monarchy, which is what they wanted in the beginning. a man that could take the wheel and save a nation from their own bickering and gridlock. The founders's monarchial vision is winning. Democracy was a temporary illusion. Strong executive leadership was always the permanent reality. (54:57) Let's look at it. Hamilton got his president for life. Adams got his aristocratic control and Morris got his elite dominance. Madison got his filter democracy. No, they didn't give us a pure monarchy because they knew we would not accept it. Instead, they gave us an evolving monarchy, a system that becomes more monarchial over time as democracy proves inadequate. (55:36) So, here's the truth. They never wanted you to know. America was never supposed to be a democracy. Our founding fathers were too smart for it. They had read history. They knew that pure popular government always fails, always descends into mob rule, economic chaos, social collapse. So they created something so sophisticated they hid a king behind a republic that would naturally evolve to a strong man as circumstances required. (56:17) They gave us the appearance of self-government with the reality of elite leadership. Popular participation provides the legitimacy, but it is those institutions that provide the government. Now, that's part number one. When I come back, I've got 10 minutes left tonight. I need a 30 second break. I plan to bring this home for you. (56:48) I'll be right back. Don't go anywhere. >> Have you considered when you spend your money at these mega corporations where it's going?

I want to tell you about a strong man president. April the 12th, 1861. (58:11) Confederate forces lined up on Fort Sumpner. The Civil War had begun. And with it, Lincoln launched the most systematic assault on constitutional government in American history. If you want to know what a dictator looked like, a strong man, a tyrant, if you want to know what a dictator looked like, he's on your screen right now. (58:46) Abraham Lincoln saved America, but he did not do it by the rules. He did not do it by democracy. He did it by monarchy. Did you know that Congress was not even in session? He did not call an emergency session like the Constitution required. He governed alone for 75 days. And during those 75 days, Lincoln rewrote the Constitution by executive decree. (59:26) First, he suspended habius corpus. Yes, he did. That fundamental right of citizens to challenge their imprisonment. Lincoln declared martial law. Lincoln defied a Supreme Court order by Chief Justice Roger Teny. That's not constitutional government. That's dictatorship. My friend Abraham Lincoln was a dictator. He was a cult leader. He was a strong man. (1:00:02) And he was salvation to a nation. He was what the founders dreamed of. He was what they created. Did you know that he called up 75,000 militia men without congressional authorization? That power belonged to the Congress. He bypassed Congress entirely. Third, he increased the size of the army and the navy by executive order, a constitutional violation. (1:00:38) Fourth, he spent federal money that Congress had not appropriated. The Constitution says no money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in consequence of appropriations made by law. Lincoln ignored that completely. Fifth, he ordered a naval blockade of the southern ports, an act of war without a declaration of war from Congress. (1:01:10) In 75 days, Lincoln violated five constitutional provisions simultaneously. That's the definition of a dictator. So in July of 1861, when the Congress after 75 days finally reconvened, did they impeach Lincoln for these massive violations? You know, like sending the military to Los Angeles, Chicago, DC. Surely they're going to get the man for that. (1:01:45) No, they retroactively approved everything. Why? Because it worked. Lincoln's dictatorial efficiency accomplished more in 75 days than democratic deliberation had achieved in 75 years. Democracy would have debated while the nation died, but dictatorship acted while there was still a nation to save. I wish to God I had time tonight to talk to you about Valon Digum's home. (1:02:28) How he got arrested at 2 o'clock in the morning. Oh, there's so much here. I want to teach you about Lincoln's secret police force. Did you know about them? Did you know that 13,000 Americans were imprisoned in the dead of night with Lincoln's ICE department? Is anybody hearing me? My lord, just too much to teach tonight. (1:02:53) Did you know that Francis Key Howard, the grandson of Francis Scott Key, was in prison for 15 months because of Lincoln. And now we come to Lincoln's most famous act, the Emancipation Proclamation. This was not some moral awakening or some democratic triumph. This was the most audacious power grab in American history. (1:03:22) On January the 1st, 1863, with no constitutional authority, no congressional approval, no legal precedent, Lincoln declared that he personally had the power to free 4 million slaves. Let that sink in. One man decided to revolutionize the social structure of half of the country with one executive order. (1:03:54) The Constitution never gave him power to set slaves free. The Fifth Amendment explicitly protected property rights and slaves was property. Lincoln ignored all of it. He declared himself dictator over property relations in the Confederate States. And here's the really revealing part. Lincoln only freed slaves in areas where he had no actual control. (1:04:23) He freed slaves where he could not even enforce it. By 1863, Lincoln had redefined the entire conflict. Now, here's the question that exposes the weakness of democracy. Could the Union, everyone listen to me carefully, I know it's getting late, had won the Civil War through a normal constitutional process. The answer, absolutely not. (1:04:55) And if you think America can win our war on immigration through the constitutional process, you're just as fooled as you would have been in 1861. Congress during the Civil War was a disaster. They spent more time arguing about procedure than supporting the war effort. Republican radicals wanted to punish the South into oblivion. (1:05:22) If Lincoln would have been constrained, what would have happened? What about Great Britain during World War II? Winston Churchill governed as a dictator, bypassing Parliament. I'm out of time. Lincoln died April the 15th, 1865. But he died a savior to America. A savior. He was salvation to a nation. Completely salvation to a nation. (1:06:02) I want to end tonight by speaking to you about Donald John Trump, the dictator at large. For eight years before Donald Trump became president, we watched American democracy collapse in real time. Congressional gridlock, institutional corruption, cultural decay, international humiliation. The system was broken beyond repair. (1:06:35) And then like Lincoln in 1891, like Napoleon in 1799, like every strong man leader history's ever demanded, Donald Trump stepped forward to break the deadlock and restore American greatness. And our founders knew that there would have to be these men to save America. That's why I say Donald Trump is salvation to a nation that was dying in democracy. (1:07:08) This is not about partisan politics. It's about historical patterns. This is about why democracy always fails and strong leadership always succeeds. That's why in a church, if it's governed by the people, it will be a failure. If it's voted on by the people, but with a strong leader, it will survive every storm. (1:07:33) This is about the natural evolution from democratic chaos to strong man governance. And the founders built Donald Trump into our system. They hoped for him. They sit around and talked about what should happen if democracy died. Today, I want you to look at this strong man that you call a cult leader from 2016 to 2024 and prove everything that he has accomplished. (1:08:09) It was achieved through executive order. Let's go to the decline. 2008 to 2016, the era of American decline, not because of an economic crisis, but because democratic institutions proved completely incapable of responding to challenges. Let's start with Congress. For eight solid years, the most powerful legislative body on earth was paralyzed. (1:08:47) Do you remember government shutdowns became routine? Debt sealing crisis annual events. Basic government impossible. The 112th Congress passed fewer major bills than any Congress since 1940. The 113th Congress, even worse. The 114th and the 115th Congress were legislative graveyards. Democracy was dead. (1:09:26) Did you know congressional approval ratings dropped lower than a used car salesman in those eight years? Lower than the IRS. Lower than Vladimir Putin. The Congress approval rating dropped to 9% in those eight years. But that was just the beginning. The Obama administration spent eight years proving that weak leadership produces global humiliation. (1:09:57) China began challenging American dominance. During those years, Russia invaded Ukraine and annexed Crimea. Iran expanded its nuclear program all in those eight years. Meanwhile, Obama's response to every crisis, diplomatic engagement, multilateral consultations, strategic patience, in other words, weakness, indecision, and surrender. (1:10:30) But the most damaging of all, immigration. Democrats wanted amnesty. Republicans wanted border security. But neither side could deliver anything. Deadlock, gridlock. Why? Because compromise requires both sides to give up something. Immigration activists on the left would primary any Democrat that voted for border security. (1:11:02) Any conservative actor on the right would primary any Republican for amnesty. So guess what? Nothing happened for years. Nothing. Rowing a boat going nowhere. Trump take the wheel. Millions of illegals crossing the border while American workers lost jobs. Cheap foreign labor. Drug cartels smuggling fentinil. (1:11:30) Democracy produced endless debate with zero results. By 2016, the American system completely broken. Congress couldn't pass budgets. Presidents couldn't enforce immigration laws. Courts were politicized beyond repair. Elections were decided by lawyers rather than voters. America needed what our founders intended. A strong man, a king who would break the deadlock and get America moving forward. (1:12:04) His name, Donald Trump. The 2016 election was not just a political campaign. It was a popular rebellion against the failure of democracy. And Donald Trump wasn't just a candidate. He was the strong man that American democracy had inevitably produced. How many times have I taught you Obama created Trump? A failed democracy always creates someone that can take the wheel. (1:12:43) His speeches were riveting. His crowds were crazy. Full stadiums desperate for a strong man. The Republican primary proved his strong man appeal. He destroyed 16 Republican politicians all experienced governors, senators, formative former executives. Not through policy expertise, but sheer dominance. Jeb Bush was the favorite of the establishment. (1:13:16) a hundred million dollars in campaign funding was humiliated out of a race by a strong man. Marco Rubio humiliated Ted Cruz. Trump did not outdeate these politicians. He outdominated them. He imposed his personality on every interaction until his opponents looked weak. And we were sick of weak. We wanted a king. Hillary Clinton defeated decisively. (1:13:51) And now Donald Trump unleashed the most aggressive use of presidential power since Roosevelt with executive orders, regulatory rollbacks, international agreements, military deployments, immigration enforcement. Week number one, travel restriction on terroristprone countries. Take the wheel, Trump. (1:14:17) In week number one, the Keystone XL pipeline approved. Take the wheel. The regulatory freeze on Obama era rules. Withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific Partnership in the first month. Immigration enforcement dramatically increased. Illegal border crossings plummeted. Criminal aliens targeted for deportation. Sanctuary cities threatened with federal funding cuts. (1:14:48) Corporate tax rate slashed from 35% to 21%. Individual tax cuts for middle class families. Energy exploration expanded on federal land. Climate regulations eliminated. media dominance. Lincoln controlled through the telegraph. FDR controlled through the radio. Trump controlled through Twitter. Trump's foreign policy restored American strength eight years after Obama's insanity. (1:15:25) North Korea. Trump threatened them with fire and fury. None of this was accomplished through democratic procedures. Congress didn't declare war on ISIS. Congress didn't authorize China trade war. Congress didn't approve the North Korea summit. Congress did not withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal. Trump did it all through executive authority. (1:15:55) exactly the kind of decisive leadership that democracy cannot provide. But strong men can. By 2020, Trump had proven that strong presidential leadership could accomplish in four years. What democratic deliberation could not accomplish in decades. What we see in our great nation is salvation. A ship that was going nowhere except down is now moving forward. (1:16:29) Be very careful. What you call a cult or a dictator. It very well may be a savior, a deliverer, a strong man. In the year 2024, our founding fathers saw that year. They knew that we would fail so miserably that the right man would rise and help save us from ourselves. And now you know the best of the story. Good night, America. (1:17:15) We trust you, God, over this nation. We trust you, >> God, who will make a way. He has the heart of DC. We lift it up to you tonight. >> It is God with mankind. Rome could
