I am standing in line outside Madison Square Garden. It’s a place I remember from my childhood. The Circus. Hockey games. My family. A long journey away from — and then back to — national service stands between. But as I stand here today:
I feel close to home.
I confess my primary fear is Donald Trump’s character. We could win the election and lose the national opportunity if he is too belligerent domestically or in the Middle East where he has a vulnerable set of entangling alliances.
But we have won on the merits of health freedom. Not just on the issues but in the realm of electoral politics. Major pollsters have acknowledged Kennedy’s endorsement of Trump as the most significant endorsement of the campaign.
The citizen’s perspective on a Presidential candidate must primarily be to ask which candidate will better protect the People, the Nation, and the Constitution. And although each major candidate has issues in that regard, Kamala is clearly the candidate of the Deep State, the censors, and the “intelligence” agencies.
Abandoned by his old allies, there is now nothing standing between President Trump and jail other than the good will of Americans and to an essential extent, the truth. He needs us more than she does. Kamala’s whistle stops off the Hollywood circuit are often propped up by actors bussed on set in white vans. Americans now hate the media more even than politicians.
When we think of the two candidates, we often think in terms of who deserves our forgiveness more. We think of where they are going rather than where they have been.
Kamala is in the clutches of Dick Cheney and the Deep State; and she is committed.
Trump is finally in the arms of the people. With nowhere else to go.
It is up to us to direct his election and Administration.
We can do more through Kennedy in a Trump Administration. His MAHA campaign is open to good people and good ideas. Kamala’s back is turned to Kennedy and to us. We will still have to direct her if she wins, but the job will be harder, the danger greater.
So behold the Once and Future King:
The American People.
And this, a man who gave us so much hope, and led us on the return journey.
thanks for this article, Leland. I no longer live in NY state (Canaan). Although I miss it and my friends of many years, I could not stay there with what is going on in the state gov there. I am very ,very encouraged by RFK joining Pres. Trump in this endeavor to take control away from the deep state, big Food, Big Pharma, and everything else that the federal gov is doing to plague our country.

Make America Hate Again
This wasn’t an accident. It was the point. It’s what MAGA was built on—a message to the white, the bitter, and the fearful that their ginned up anger is a rallying cry, a political stance, and a weapon. It's a promise that America belongs to them and no one else. It’s why Trump’s rallies don’t even try to reach beyond his hardcore base; the idea that America belongs to everyone goes against the grain of his entire campaign.
