POLITICS: By Walter Curt
The Right is being dragged into a swamp of demoralization by voices who make a living insisting the sky is falling. Every day it’s the same chorus: It’s over. Trump’s finished. MAGA is dead. And none of it helps anyone. The question isn’t whether Trump will deliver every single thing we want on our preferred timeline — the question is why people voted for him in the first place. It wasn’t because of celebrity. It was because millions believed in a mission: taking the country back from the same entrenched elites who have run it into the ground. That mission doesn’t disappear just because social-media personalities want to stir panic for clicks.
What’s happening now is a distraction campaign, and the Right is letting itself get sucked into petty drama instead of exploiting the Left’s vulnerabilities. While Democrats stumble over the Epstein fiasco, delete posts, and scramble to rewrite narratives, too many people on our side are busy fighting about micro-controversies, online gossip, and personalities they’ll never meet. The Left stays unified even when they’re wrong; the Right tears itself apart even when we’re holding the high ground. That’s backward. The mission was never about one man or one influencer — it was always about the country, its future, and whether we have the grit to keep pushing.
So the answer is simple: tune out the noise and double down on the work. If Trump triumphs, we push forward. If the establishment blocks him, we push forward. If factions online want to chase conspiracies and fight each other all day, let them. The rest of us have actual battles to win — from local fights like Virginia’s redistricting referendum to national policies that decide whether this country thrives or collapses. Giving up isn’t an option. Sitting out isn’t an option. The people who truly care about America’s future don’t fold because of one bad news cycle — they get louder, get involved, and keep moving.
