My last birthday post for President Trump tonight and this one is personal.
This man has not just been my president, he has been a friend to me.
Behind the title, the cameras, and everything people say about him, there is a real person with a real heart.
Tonight, I want to share the good side of President Trump that so many people refuse to show, because he deserves that.
No, I don’t talk to him every day, and I don’t get to see him often. But every time I do see him, he treats me with nothing but kindness.
He gave me a stage and allowed me to speak at the White House. He has shared my posts, given me recognition, and encouraged me to keep going and never give up.
One moment I will never forget happened at dinner. I told him I didn’t want to interrupt his time with his family, and he looked at me and said, “You are family too.”
That meant more to me than he will ever know.
I have personally experienced his kindness, and I will never forget it.
Happy Birthday, President Trump. Thank you for believing in me, encouraging me, and always treating me with respect. I pray God continues to protect you, strengthen you, and bless you.
Rededication is returning to God with a sincere heart, turning from wrong, seeking Him, and renewing your life. When you draw near, He welcomes, forgives, and restores.
(Joel 2:12; 2 Chronicles 7:14; James 4:8; 1 John 1:9). 🙏
A final piece of advice from Holly Butcher - written the day before she passed away from cancer at just 27:
“It’s a strange thing knowing you’re going to die young.
At 26, I thought I had time…
To fall in love.
Start a family.
Grow old.
But cancer doesn’t care about plans.
Now, I understand how fragile life really is. Every single day is a gift, not a guarantee.
I’m not writing this to scare you. I’m writing to remind you: really live.
Stop stressing over little things. Be kind to your body- move it, nourish it, stop criticizing it. One day you’ll wish you had appreciated it.
Go outside.
Look at the sky.
Feel the sun.
Just be.
Spend less time chasing “stuff” - more time making memories. Don’t skip moments with people you love.
Laugh more.
Write a note.
Tell someone you love them.
Complain less.
Give more.
Helping others brings more joy than anything you can buy.
Be present.
Put your phone down.
Show up - really show up.
You don’t need to have it all figured out. You don’t need a perfect body, or a perfect life.
Just follow what makes your heart light up. Say no to what drains you. Make changes when you need to.
And please - donate blood. I wouldn’t have had that extra year without it. And that year gave me memories I’ll hold close… forever.
Thank you for reading this.
Live your life well.
And maybe… we’ll meet again someday.”

Repost & share Holly’s important advice. ❤️
30 years ago I was the starting QB at Utah State University. My senior year I got benched. For the next 15 years I walked around feeling like a certified loser. Then I read this quote from Pat Summitt:
'Winning is fun… Sure. But winning is not the point.
Wanting to win is the point.
Not giving up is the point.
Never letting up is the point.
Never being satisfied with what you’ve done is the point.'
It snapped me out of it. If you’re still carrying a sports setback, a benching, a missed opportunity, or any “I’m not enough” story… this is your permission slip to drop it. The game isn’t over. Your story is not yet written. You are still a work in progress. The point is you keep wanting it. You keep getting up. And you listen to that quiet voice that says, "I will try again tomorrow."
Nick Saban’s three pillars for a purpose-driven life:
1.Compassion: Treat everyone with respect, from the starters to the equipment managers.
2.Accountability: Own your journey. Don’t look for excuses; look for ways to improve.
3.The Standard: It’s not about being better than the opponent; it’s about being the best version of you.
This never gets old … John MacArthur explains the greatest gospel verse in the Bible:
2 Corinthians 5:21 - “For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.”
Ok, I still love my democrat friends and family but, you see it your way and I see it my way.
I'm not you and you're not me.
You see Trump’s arrogance, I see Trump’s confidence.
You see Trump’s nationalism, I see Trump’s patriotism.
You hear Trump’s unsophisticated words, I hear Trump’s honesty.
You see Trump’s racism, I see Trump’s words being misconstrued and twisted by the media daily to fit their narrative.
You see Trump as a Republican, I see Trump as a Patriot.
You see Trump as a dictator, I see Trump as a leader.
You see Trump as an Authoritarian, I see Trump as the only one willing to fight for our freedoms.
You see Trump as childish, I see Trump as a fighter, unwilling to cave in to the lies.
You see Trump as an unpolished politician, I see Trump as a breath of fresh air.
You think Trump hates immigrants, I know Trump is married to an immigrant.
You see Trump putting an end to immigration in America, I see Trump welcoming immigrants to America LEGALLY.
You see Trump’s cages at the border, I see Obama’s cages at the border.
You see Trump with a struggling economy, I see Trump with an amazing economy until the Democrats shut it down.
You see the violence in the streets and call it “Trump’s America”, I see the violence in the streets of Democratic run cities who have refused Trump’s help and call it “Leftist America.”
You wanted someone more Presidential, I’m happy we HAVE someone who finally doesn’t just talk the talk but actually walks the walk.
You and I? We see things very differently!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!

I agree 100%!!
Any Republican Senator seeking the coveted LEADERSHIP position in the United States Senate must agree to Recess Appointments (in the Senate!), without which we will not be able to get people confirmed in a timely manner. Sometimes the votes can take two years, or more. This is what they did four years ago, and we cannot let it happen again. We need positions filled IMMEDIATELY! Additionally, no Judges should be approved during this period of time because the Democrats are looking to ram through their Judges as the Republicans fight over Leadership. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. THANK YOU!
On Nov 13, Senate Republicans elect the Majority leader. We NEED Senator Rick Scott in this position—an America First champion we can trust to support Agenda 47. @JohnCornyn@SenTedCruz https://t.co/oXB4EdRPHL
Democrats, if you’re wondering why America voted for Trump, allow me to explain:
The truth is, the American People are sick of your shit.
You ruined our nation and our culture. You openly mocked, belittled, and discriminated us, then called us racist, misogynist, Nazis when we started noticing.
You defiled and corrupted all of our great institutions, to include the media, social media, tech, academia, intelligence, health, pharma, Hollywood, entertainment, sports, EVERYTHING! You weaponized every aspect of American life, and used it to push your insane far-Left agenda down our throats.
You told us Trump was a Russian asset that was going to start WW3 and would be worse than Hitler. Then you used that as an excuse to justify hatred towards Trump supporters and to riot in the streets. You used it as an excuse to obstruct and ruin Trump’s entire first term, and it turned out it was all a lie.
Then during Covid, you demanded we all be forced to take medical experimentation without testing. You wanted dissenters locked in prison. You wanted children taken from their anti-vax parents. You wanted the anti-vax in camps. You were rooting for our deaths. Then it turned out you were wrong about everything from the man-made origin, to masks, to vaccines, to social distancing, to ivermectin, to HCQ, to natural immunity, and everything in between.
Then during Ukraine, you told us that Ukraine was a bastion of Democracy, and that they desperately needed all of our tax dollars. Then it turned out that Ukraine is one of the most corrupt nations in the world, with literal Nazi military forces, and it was actually just a money laundering operation to steal from the American taxpayer. You want to defend Ukraine’s borders more than our own. You sent hundreds of billions of dollars on the other side of the planet, while Americans are suffering, all based on more lies.
Then there’s the whole Epstein, Diddy, human-trafficking element. You all told us VEHEMENTLY that human-trafficking was a myth, you told us the border was secure, and you told us that anyone who questioned it was an irredeemable & deplorable conspiracy theorist (and a piece of garbage). You said anyone who watched “Sound of Freedom” was a QAnon extremist and threat to democracy. Then it turned out to be true, and the elites really are engaged in unspeakable crimes against children. After you all told us for decades this was not true. You covered up the most heinous crimes imaginable, for political gain.
I could do this for days, but I think you get the point. The American People are awake to the scam and the true evil going on around us, and we are not going to stand for it anymore. So we hired Donald J. Trump and his team of Patriots to rectify the situation, and bring America back to her greatness.
This is the reality of the situation. You are the bad guys, and you have been deceived. The sooner you wake up to it, the sooner you can join us in repairing this nation. Or you can choose to deny reality, and spend the rest of your lives consumed by hate, based on lies.
The choice is yours.
Signed: A True American Patriot
@realDonaldTrump Thank you for your courage and for standing in the fire for America and all of humanity. God Bless America 🙏🏼🇺🇸
Dear @tedcruz
I speak for ALL of your Texas constituents including myself.
We are demanding you support Rick Scott for Senate Leadership.
Thank you,
ALL Texans
🚨Repost if you want Ted to see this.
The people who just gave Donald Trump a sweeping mandate do not want Thune or Cornyn to lead the US Senate.
They want Rick Scott. It's very clear.
Share if you agree.
