WHAT CAN WE DO? President elect Trump takes over our government on January 20th. Smarter people than I have told you what to expect. What can we do in anticipation of the gathering storm? Let me just address the promise of our future Attorney General, Pam Bondi. She has declared that her main […]

What If – Part XV – Degrading the Medal of Honor
As men and women who are serving or have served America in the six branches of service or in the Reserves or in the National Guard, “Supportanddefendsociety.com” reaches out to it’s brothers and sisters all of whom have taken the oath to “Support and Defend” our Constitution. We are in a national crisis. […]
What If – Part XIV – The Final Chapter
The Final Chapter GOOD v EVIL Political promises are generally just that. Promises. In 1928 Hoover promised… “A chicken in every pot and two cars in every garage”. We are facing something entirely different. It’s one of the true things Justice Alito has said. Paraphrasing: “It’s us against them.” He’s on the side of […]
What If – Part XIII – Bribes and Gifts
BRIBES and GIFTS The United States Supreme Court, (SCOTUS), has done it again! They conveniently, possibly to protect themselves, do not recognize the real difference between a bribe and a gift. If you are a sitting judge and I promise to “take care of you” if you rule my way, and you rule in […]
What If – Part XII – Foreign Affairs
FOREIGN AFFAIRS In a word, if Mr. Trump wins, say goodbye to Ukraine. His friendship with Vladimir Putin is so very deep and unexplainable that it defies logic and reason. Possibly Mr. Putin has something really big on Mr. Trump, or it can be extreme adulation and admiration of a KGB trained, ruthless, cold […]
What If – Part XI – Health Care and Social Security
HEALTH CARE and SOCIAL SECURITY Mr. and Mrs. Average American voted for Donald Trump in the presidential election. They were hoping to get a tax refund. What if Mr. Trump wins? HEALTH CARE A few months after the election Mr. Average American noticed a small growth on the outside of his left […]
What If – Part X – Religion
RELIGION Concerning the problems Americans are facing, ex-president Trump said, “I alone can fix it.” Many of the MAGA cult believe that Mr. Trump is the Messiah. They venerate and worship him. He holds himself out as a preacher and prophet. He publicly waives the bible over his head. He also sells bibles for […]
What If – Part IX – Education
EDUCATION What will education be like under a new Trump regime? It will be the natural extension of what had been started in the first Trump administration but magnified. With the help of the Supreme Court Blacks were kept in their own schools. Look around. Why is the school down the road almost one […]
What If – Part VIII – The Supreme Court
THE SUPREME COURT PART I Is it a run-a-way court? What can we do? Is it too late already? Legal scholars are frightened that the Supreme Court of the United States, (SCOTUS), packed by three Trump appointments, is a run-a-way right wing, destructive, extremist court. Theorists are now considering how we can solve […]
What If – Part VII – Pardons
PARDONS Concerning pardons, you should anticipate that SCOTUS will rule that the president can pardon anyone for any Federal crimes including himself, but not for State crimes. However, SCOTUS may find that the president can pardon violations of State law if the illegal act was directly or indirectly in furtherance of a federal law, order […]
What If – Part VI – Presidential Immunity
PRESIDENTIAL IMMUNITY The “WHAT IF” article concerning how the government will operate in a Trump second term was written well before July 1st,2024 and predicted a “bumbling Biden”, a Supreme Court ruling granting the President limited, but broad immunity and the gutting of the independent regulatory agencies. Those predictions turned out to be accurate. […]
What If – Part V – A Second Trump Administration
How will the government operate during a second Trump administration? You may be thinking, “How can I vote for Biden? He’s very old, mumbles, shuffles and has lapses of thought.” Unfortunately, we don’t have much of a real choice. How can we vote for a serial liar, rapist, womanizer and convicted felon? What if—he wins? […]
What If – Part IV – The Economy
What will happen to the economy if Donald Trump becomes president again? To help Mr. Trump get into the White House one way or another, his campaign will blame Biden for “runaway inflation and crazy socialist welfare spending to help the illegal immigrants.” Actually, the inflation number is at about 3.3%, about the […]
What If – Part III – Immigration
There’s a great difference between legal and illegal immigration. If legal immigration is reasonable and representative of our obligation to accept a fair share of the world’s destitute, who are motivated to be productive, there would be less problems with illegal border crossings. Illegals, especially ones with criminal records, would be rounded up and […]
What If – Part II – Womens’ Rights
HERE’S WHAT’S COMING . The new administration has sailed into office avoiding the issue of women’s rights by saying that in democratic America we will leave women’s’ rights up to the people, namely, to each state. The Trump team seems to forget that under Roe V. Wade it was a federal matter for over fifty […]
