This was not supposed to happen.

If the laws of nature had acted as they normally do, Donald Trump would have died in July, murdered in cold blood because, deep down, his enemies knew that was the only way to prevent American voters from choosing him as their leader.

Trump’s impetuous head tilt that day, impossible to explain as anything other than an act of God, is the sole reason America still stands as the world’s most viable republic. It allowed Trump to be chosen by the people, not some machine puppet to rise to power who only really had the backing of the pre-established elite.

Only in this country can a man so deeply hated by the aristocratic political, business, and media establishments twice rise to become the electorate’s leader. Only here could he be subjected to countless investigations, impeachments, arrests, and physical threats and still be chosen once again as the people’s champion.

Democrat and media fearmongers have spent years saying a Trump victory would mark the end of democracy. They’re wrong. It represents its saving. The president-elect’s triumph serves as undeniable proof that America, despite its imperfections, is among the only countries in the history of the world legitimately governed by, of, and for the people.

God alone is to thank.
