THE Truth is the GOP on the mainland & in the CNMI have become EXPERTS at “bloating society with lies & false perceptions” bamboozling Voters for years. On the mainland Trump has proven to be lying about everything from “Obama being an American, a stolen election, Economic Lies about Tariffs, to Immigrants being the biggest threat to safety. And now the old Epstein promise to release the files that has finally found the LIGHT of TRUTH that Trump may very well be at the TOP of Epstein’s Client list, as flight Logs of Epstein’s plane, cards & pictures of Trump & Epstein don’t LIE! Obama LIE, Stolen Election LIE, Tariffs to decrease cost of living LIE, Immigrants the biggest threat LIE when there is no record of organized Immigrant violence. But there is plenty of PROOF on “White Supremacy & White Domestic Violence like the shooting in Las Vegas, the shootings at schools & shootings and bombings of Black Churches and the list goes on. But the straw that’s breaking Trumps back is in the Epstein LIES that are proving to be TRUE! America was sold “Cheap TALK” not Truth, as Trump’s MAGA is now burning his hats & memorabilia so WHEN do WE burn Arnold’s TRUST BS! But Trump is “his-OWN Kingmaker” unlike in the past when Presidents had a Kingmaker for their Campaign. It is critical for any political party to have a “SINGLE guiding force that voters can be united under” and in Trump’s case he created ALL of the Lies & Perception for conservatives, and it worked. It’s now the Trump TV Reality Show saying & doing only what’s BEST for Trump, Family & the Rich,” including an unethical 400-million-dollar Plane from a foreign government. Trump has been able to get away with all his Lies and Misperceptions because he was backed by a “Team” that has been in the making for years under Karl Rowe’s leadership creating Red States & Sen. McConnell helped stack the Supreme Court.
Getting the Party & Voters to “unite” is a challenging task that is best achieved by following “a single game-plan of the strategist (Kingmaker)” like James Carville was for Clinton. But heck, the GOP on the mainland and in the CNMI have REAL Kingmakers with attack-dogs & supporters like Saipan Man who cries “he’s not a bigot” — LOL. Republican also fall-in-line even when its unethical and even illegal but Dems are still busy pointing fingers at the GOP instead of executing a “single uniting attack plan” to unite voters. The Republican “MAGA” is meant to imply BIG like the Elephant Logo and I’m also willing to bet Arnold has a “Crew working to boost his numbers in the MV Poll” that has shifted to put him ahead. But the MV Poll has at least a 5% variance with 1,844 voting when I looked that only represents around 10.2 % of the voting population, thus 90% of voters are SILENT! However, PERCEPTION can be misleading as too many voters may think Arnold is already going to win and the Dems don’t have a COMMITED Gubernatorial Candidate. To my knowledge Kilili has not stated he would run making the Dems dead LAST before the race can even start — see the problem with OUR Dems not having a real “Kingmaker & Plan to execute.” I actually wrote letters to some Elected Dems pleading for them to take control of the Party for a “united Party under ONE leadership plan” but they wouldn’t even acknowledge receiving my email, so WHO is really disrespectful & unprofessional in their obvious enmity with Ambrose’s “Good Troubles,” John Lewis! The Dems don’t get it that they may NEVER win ignoring their OWN People who have a real Public Platform — duh!
In the CNMI Arnold got away with Lying about “No Money to institute Austerity” but once it was over he magically found MILLIONS, how’s that TRUST Government Employees! Arnold sponsored Illegal Legislation to pay the CC and he used CEDA to flimflam us in the MACS give-away. Heck the GOP is a well-organized Team with ALL the Boards & Commissions and many Government Employees; thus the BIG Perception in the MV Polls literally Stacked-the-Deck in their favor. FYI, Arnold won’t dissolve the 3-Casino Commissions that represent 15 Powerful Emissaries with 15 Family Ties and most are X-Politicians — HELLER! But the Dems should’ve had a Team on the MV Poll, but our Dems didn’t even have a TEAM when “Politics is the ULTIMATE Team Sport,” a basic Poly Sci fact. The Dems didn’t even have a Team pursuing the next group of Candidates on Day-One after the last election like Luella Marciano said, but they Didn’t Listen and now they are HOPING for candidates. Our Dems haven’t even TALKED a good fight, so who’s following TAYA! I also hope Mr. Steve Jang keeps it up, as the GOP is known for using People to STOP People and they even tried to use & turn People against Me to stop!
The last election PROVED the CNMI is a “Red Trump State” when Ralph & Arnold received the majority vote over Tina, as WE literally have a Red Political Dragon that needs to be slayed if WE as a People are to find real Progress over GOP Poli-tricking & no Economic Planned Reforms that’s taking us BACKWARDS! And our GOP Delegate has only delivered 5.5 million for 2026 & TALK while PSS & NAP are MISSING far more than 5.5 million! WE need a real Dragon Slayer or it’s going to be the Same-O that I keep warning about that is clearly on the horizon in the MV Poll. The Dems didn’t listen when I warned that “assuming a woman, Social Media exposure and GOP faults & failures were enough to win” which proved to be insufficient. It’s going to take “real Aggressive Teamwork, a single uniting strategy & leader and a real economic plan” to slay this GOP Dragon that has the CNMI in its grip. But KUDOS to Representatives Attao & Villagomez for stepping up to the plate and at least giving us some hope for CHANGE!
One People, One Direction.
