Beautiful.... thank you! What came to me in those words - "fight fight fight" - was that it was a culminating response to what he has been doing for 10 yrs.... or maybe his entire life? He absolutely knows there are forces after him that will stop at nothing and as he told us at one time -" they aren't after me, they are after you and I am just standing in their way". He cannot stand against them alone and so he encourages us to fight fight fight because this is a battle that will tolerate no spectators. Too many have been watching the battle in the arena from safe places but those "safe" places are about to be annihilated.

May we all put on the pieces of armor that we have been lacking, whether it's the sword or shield or whichever, and engage the enemy.

Beautiful Siguna

I am much older than you I think, but being a "nice girl" or guy is the biggest lie. Kindness can never be subservient to the truth.

I'd like to think Trump was saying FIGHT for the TRUTH.

Thank you. Yes, I believe that the "true" fight encompasses so much more. Fighting for the TRUTH, and FOR FREEDOM AND OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL as so beautifully articulated by James above. At the end, I realized how little we have been educated that this is what it is all about.

beautiful piece, very well written. I too had not been a Trump supporter, but something in me changed that day. I was in awe of what Trump did and what he said. I began to feel deep admiration and respect for him and what he's doing. Yes, he's a politician and he's often slippery with the truth. He can also be petty and cruel in his remarks that ridicule his opponents. But in that moment when he realized they were trying to kill him, his courage and defiance, and his ability to speak the truth in that moment, showed to the world what at the core of this man.
