It's really easy to quit. It is easy to say, well, we have no chance. Easy to be knocked down. And as humiliating as it is to lie face-down in the dirt, that's exactly what every bully wants you to do. That's why every bully commands you to “stay down or I'll give you a bigger beating.” But the man who inspires others to stand continues to get up, wobbly, barely able to fight, but he refuses to bend the knee. He refuses to surrender to the bully. Failure is not the end, nor was this stain on American justice yesterday. It is simply a stepping stone to the path of greatness, a stepping stone to make America great again. That's not just a slogan for a campaign. That is true. So what we have in front of us today is a decision. Do we get up? Or do we lie down face-down in the dirt? What is possibly worth taking these beatings? Donald Trump is just a symbol. He's a symbol of what bullies do to anyone who refuses to play it his way, to stay down. Bullies come to town all the time. And they teach everybody in town to go along, get along, whisper, “Don't you try to help that beaten man stand up. Don't do it.” We must decide. Will we stand idly by while the crowds chant “Barabbas, we want Barabbas!” Building anything of value, whether it's a country, a career, a relationship, or simply our own character, requires unwavering dedication. We have to be willing to get back up time and time again, to face our fears, to face our doubts, to press on no matter what happens to us. And there is strength in numbers. At Blaze Media, we are committed to standing up for you, your values, and the American way of life. Will you add your name to our roster? Will you join us and fight together? It is through that relentless effort that we become Americans. We discover our true potential not just as people, but as a people the world has always known as Americans—not the kind of Americans we've become but the kind of Americans we've all striven to be, or thought we did. I've always believed the American was defined by a can-do spirit. The people who crossed the Rockies and tamed the West, changed the world, rescued and healed. I didn't realize how much until I studied history, real history, not the crap they teach you in school, real history. I never really understood how stained our name is, from those in power, those who only serve through corruption and greed and sometimes out-and-out evil. But I have truly always believed, and I say I still do today, that the American truly believes in honor and integrity and truth and justice, that that is the American way. Yesterday may have changed that belief for some people. But it did not change it for me. I will not surrender to those words. I will not surrender to the belief that puts me and other Americans into action. Yesterday was a defeat. But we are not done. Each of us coming together — you're not going to do anything grand, I'm not going to do anything grand. I'm not telling you today anything you don't know. We just have to remember every step forward, no matter how small, contributes to the journey, where people who continue to stand up, those people who refuse to give in, always end up winning. The value is not in just the destination but the courage and perseverance that we show along the way. It wasn't that we always won with no cost. Americans have always paid a high cost for what we believed in. That's what's admirable. And quite honestly, I think that's what Americans have lost that put us into this position. By doing the hard things, by refusing to give up, we build a legacy of strength and integrity, and I fear we've squandered it, because we didn't understand it. That's what we've lost. That is what the world will lose should we fail — should America fail. Thank you, Glenn Beck P.S. Join us today and use code TRUMP34 for $34 off your first year of BlazeTV+
