Please, President Trump, It’s Just Too Much Winning

By the evening of January 20, the day of Donald J. Trump’s second inauguration ceremony, I was personally exhausted. But I wasn’t exhausted from the busyness of the day.

I was exhausted from all the winning.

In 2015, Trump promised that if he was elected, there would be “so much winning” that he warned we “may get bored with winning.” He echoed this again at one of his trademark 2016-election rallies when he said, “We’re going to win so much you may even get tired of winning! And you’ll say, ‘Please, please, it’s too much winning! We can’t take it anymore! Mr. President, it’s too much!’ And I’ll say, ‘No, it isn’t! We have to keep winning! We have to win more! We’re going to win more! We’re going to win so much!'” He even promised that we’d win so much that Americans would go to their elected representatives and governors and ask them to call up Trump to beg him to stop winning so much. It would be more winning than we could handle.

And honestly, there was a lot of winning for four years — and even beyond those four years with the greatest win, the overturning of Roe v. Wade.

But then the winning stopped. For almost four entire years. Conservatives became battle-weary, which led to a constant state of black-pilling (something I’ve written about in past posts).

Trump’s 2024 landslide win changed all that.

Suddenly, there were wins after wins for conservatives, just in the few months between the election and inauguration. The world wanted to “get along” again, and everyone wanted to be Trump’s friend. The future looked hopeful as conservatives anticipated Trump’s return to the Oval Office. The day with the greatest wins was the day that Trump took his rightful place back in the White House.

One thing that Trump’s haters are not able to say is that he doesn’t keep his promises. I would dare say most of the promises he made on the campaign trail in 2024 were all kept in just his first 24 hours of being sworn in . Of course, some things can’t be accomplished in such a short time frame. But the executive orders he signed on January 20 were breaths of fresh air for conservatives who had experienced four long years of beatdowns and defeats.

Look at some of the things Trump did just on day one of his presidency. Almost immediately, he shut down Biden’s CBP One app, which helped permit innumerable immigrants to flood into the US. Another instantaneous change was the removal of ReproductiveRights.gov, an HHS pro-abortion website. Later that night, he signed over 200 executive orders. One of these EO’s declared Mexican cartels as terrorist organizations. An EO related to the illegal immigration crisis demanded that the death penalty be sought for anyone who murders a law-enforcement officer and any illegal alien who has committed a capital crime. (The death penalty would also be reinstated for any federal capital crime.) Another EO declared a National Energy Emergency and, consequentially, allowed Alaska to utilize fully its natural resources; Trump also declared a National Emergency at the Southern border and made moves to begin securing it again. Additionally, he signed an order that requires all DEI programs be removed from the federal government and that a meritocratic system be re-established. He was very quick to withdraw the US from harmful and costly international alliances such as the Paris Accords and the World Health Organization. Worth noting is the progress he made to end government overreach by drawing up EO’s to stop the weaponization of federal agencies against the American people and to end censorship and restore free speech. This included ending the expansion of the federal government by instituting DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) and ordering a hiring freeze on federal employees, effective immediately. Another change for federal employees was the mandate that they all cease remote work and return to their in-person jobs right away. And of course, to target one of the main issues affecting every single American regardless of political affiliation, Trump signed an EO to begin the process of stabilizing the economy and lowering prices nation-wide.

But I would indeed be remiss to mention, in my opinion, two of the greatest actions that Trump took in those first 24 hours: the one being an EO to tackle radical gender ideology, and the other being a full pardon for almost every single January 6 political prisoner — or, more accurately, “hostage.”

The EO that redefined gender is multi-faceted in its significance. Firstly, it reaffirms that one’s sex is an immutable characteristic and restates the basic truth that men are not women. Secondly, it takes a firm position to keep men from invading women’s spaces, such as women’s sports, domestic abuse shelters, showers, etc. Thirdly, it orders that “gender” not be used for identification purposes on any federal ID’s. Fourthly, it ends any federal funding for “gender reassignment” (mutilation) surgeries and any related medical procedures or drug distributions. And as if this EO wasn’t packed with enough amazing declarations, it says this when redefining the sexes:

“…d)  “Female” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell.

“(e)  “Male” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell…”

At conception.

That wording is very intentional. Even with abortion no longer being primarily a federal issue, Trump is still delivering pro-lifers victories while also pushing the Overton Window further to the right. This EO is one of the first hardline stands that the federal government has taken against the radical social ideologies of the left. The culture war is already changing in our favour.

The second great action that holds a lot of emotion for me and many others was the full pardon and/or sentence-commutation of almost every single J6 political hostage. For years, almost 2,000 protestors were imprisoned and forced to suffer under inhumane and torturous conditions. Many of them were still awaiting trial. Before you say, “Some broke windows and assaulted police,” let me remind you that 99% of them were there to peacefully and patriotically make their voices heard. The very few that did commit minor crimes like vandalism or assault were kept in prison much, much longer than most people who do those things on a given day. The political slant against these people was obvious. They weren’t in jail for protesting, or even the few for vandalism and assault; they were there because they went against the regime.

And just as President Trump promised, he came through for them on day one. Stories broke through within minutes of the pardon — and even before — of J6ers being released. I praise God for that and pray that they may be able to live their lives normally again after that horrible things many of them have had to endure for the last 3-4 years.

All these incredible actions happened on day one of Trump entering office triumphantly for the second time in his life. I haven’t even listed half of them. And we still have four more years to go.

But I’m not tired of winning yet.
