Matthew 5:37
King James Version
37 But let your communication be,
Yea, yea; Nay, nay:
for whatsoever is more than these
cometh of evil.
If you think president Trump thought up "tariffs" overnight, think again.
Tariffs have been in his heart for at least 38 years now.
As the Rubin clip of Oprah's 1988 interview above shows.
He spoke about Japan's "unfairness" in dumping their goods on America.
Oprah also spoke of an ad Trump placed.
We learn about that here:
"In 1987, Trump placed full-page advertisements in major newspapers[106] expressing his views on foreign policy and how to eliminate the federal budget deficit."
-- Wikipedia
As early as 1987, he was already into "foreign defense policy".
As well as eliminating America's "federal budget deficit".
If there's a true patriot, that's Trump.
He wrote a letter "To The American People".
Would you like to view the ad?
Take a look here.
Over a decade ago, I also read his January 2000 book, "The America We Deserve".
"The book lists and details a set of policy proposals Trump intended to implement should he ever become president."
Just shows Trump is consistent --
He wears the same navy blue-red tie outfit.
He knows his stuff about tariffs, and foreign policy.
He's outspoken, and loves publicity.
His language remains the same.
He does what he believes in.
He implements his ideas.
He loves America.
This time around, being America's 47th president, he's got his best chance to implement what's been in his heart all those years.
So if people continue mocking him, think again.
Many have no idea the depth to this man.
Many have no idea the reason for his drive.
Many have no idea his devotion to America.
Many underestimate him.
We learned that even Dave Rubin, who created the video above, was initially unimpressed by Trump.
"Ahead of the 2016 United States Presidential election, Rubin declined to endorse Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump and instead voted for Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson. In an interview with Glenn Beck, he retrospectively stated that he chose not to vote for Trump as he was uncertain about how Trump would govern the United States."
-- Wikipedia
In 2020, Rubin changed his tune:
"In October 2020, Rubin said he had "been a lifelong Democrat", but would be voting for a Republican president for the first time and endorsed Donald Trump for a second term in the 2020 United States Presidential Election."
-- Wikipedia
By now, Trump's used to skeptics, critics, and dissenters.
It's got to be a blockhead who doesn't want to accept change when Trump's already gone past his door.
"Love him, or hate him, GOD chose him"
