While Democrats spend their time crying about pronouns and climate hysteria, legendary American rock climber Alex Honnold reminded the world what true American excellence looks like – conquering Taiwan's massive Taipei 101 skyscraper with nothing but his bare hands and unshakeable determination.

The fearless climber stunned millions of viewers Saturday when he scaled all 1,667 feet of the towering structure without any safety equipment whatsoever. The death-defying 90-minute ascent was broadcast live on Netflix with a ten-second delay, after weather conditions forced an earlier postponement.

"It was like what a view," Honnold reportedly said after completing the breathtaking feat that would leave most people paralyzed with fear.

American Spirit on Full Display

This is what happens when Americans are allowed to be Americans – no government bureaucrats telling them it's "too dangerous," no DEI consultants lecturing about "equity in extreme sports." Just pure American courage and skill conquering seemingly impossible challenges.

The timing couldn't be more perfect, coming just weeks into President Trump's second term as he works to restore American dominance on the world stage. While our enemies plot against us, Americans like Honnold are showing the world that we don't back down from anything – whether it's towering skyscrapers or the forces trying to destroy our great nation.

"This is the kind of fearless American spirit that built this country and will make it great again."

Of course, don't expect the mainstream media to celebrate this incredible achievement. They're too busy pushing their latest manufactured crisis to acknowledge when Americans accomplish extraordinary things that showcase our national character.

Taiwan, meanwhile, got to witness firsthand the kind of courage and determination that defines the American people – the same qualities that will help President Trump secure our borders, rebuild our economy, and restore respect for America worldwide.

In a world full of participation trophies and safe spaces, Alex Honnold just reminded everyone what real achievement looks like. That's the America First spirit in action, patriots.

This is what American grit looks like! While other countries are focused on participation trophies, we're still producing individuals who push the limits and show the world what fearless determination can accomplish.

My son is into rock climbing and this is exactly the kind of role model he needs to see. Real accomplishment through hard work and calculated risk-taking, not social media stunts.

Amazing achievement! Does anyone know if this climber has military background? This kind of mental toughness reminds me of our special forces training.

I was wondering the same thing. Takes serious discipline and courage either way.

As someone who works in construction, I can tell you the skill and preparation this takes is absolutely incredible. The physical conditioning alone must have taken years.
