President Donald Trump has become so politically dominant that his opponents are literally changing the rules of the game to try to contain him—a phenomenon that mirrors what happened to basketball legend George Mikan in the early days of the NBA.
Just as the NBA had to widen the lane to push the unstoppable Mikan further from the basket because defenders couldn't stop him and coaches couldn't scheme around him, Democrats and the establishment have been forced to completely restructure their approach to politics in response to Trump's unprecedented success.
Think about it, Patriots. When has any political figure in modern history forced the entire system to reinvent itself? Trump didn't just win elections—he fundamentally changed how politics works in America.
The Rules Keep Changing
From the moment Trump announced his candidacy, the establishment has been moving the goalposts. They changed primary debate rules, rewrote impeachment procedures, altered voting laws, and even weaponized federal agencies against him. Yet here he stands, serving his second term as the 47th President.
"Trump's political dominance is so complete that his opponents can't beat him within the existing framework," noted one conservative analyst. "So they keep trying to change the framework itself."
The comparison to George Mikan is perfect—when you can't compete, you change the rules.
Now, with Trump back in the White House alongside Vice President JD Vance, we're witnessing the continued evolution of this phenomenon. The Biden regime's policies are being systematically dismantled, the Deep State is being exposed, and America First principles are being restored.
But don't expect the establishment to go quietly. They'll keep trying to widen their own "lane"—whether through lawfare, media manipulation, or bureaucratic resistance. The difference is that Trump has proven he can dominate under any set of rules they create.
The question isn't whether Trump will continue to win—it's whether his opponents will ever learn that changing the rules won't change the outcome when you're facing a true champion of the American people.
