In May of 2017, Mr. Rich Higgins (may he R.I.P.) wrote a memo that President Donald J. Trump read (he needs to read it again).

In the very first paragraph, Rich wrote:

“The Trump administration is suffering under withering information campaigns designed to first undermine, then delegitimize and ultimately remove the POTUS . Possibly confusing these attacks w/ an elevated interplay of otherwise normal D.C. partisan infighting and adversarial media relations, the White House response to these campaigns reflects a political advocacy mindset that it is intensely reactive, severely under-inclusive and dangerously inadequate to the threat. If action is not taken to re-scope and respond to these hostile campaigns very soon, the administration risks implosion and subsequent early departure from the White House.”

Bottom line: Very little has changed and this is still not “politics as usual.” It is a form of “political warfare” and we are clearly in the midst of a color revolution.

Trump, and those around him, need to understand the threat we face, who is behind it, how they are resourced, what their future intentions are and what internal and external forces they have available. We need a strategic mindset with an operational focus.

Lastly, for the future of freedom and America, the defense of President Trump is the defense of America. Keep in mind, had Washington failed, no Republic, “had Lincoln failed, so too would the [existing] Republic.”
