Analytics correctly predicted every
Presidential winner since 1980, and two days
ago, smack in the middle of the latest
impeachment kerfuffle, they predicted Trump
would win in 2020 by an electoral
landslide.[1]
As a supporter of climate activism, having a
climate change denier occupy the presidency
another four years is absolutely
bone-chilling. But the way the Democratic
Party machine is acting, tethered to the
corporate media as it is, chances are
looking dimmer every day.
Here are four intrusive smelling salts
intended to rouse Democrats from their
sleep, because if they don´t wake up, Donald
Trump is going to get re-elected.
Reason 1: Illegal immigration
One million people were stopped trying to
cross into the United States last year. Yes,
one million people! [2] One can only guess
how many snuck into the country that were
not stopped.
This actually bothers many Americans.
The liberal media interminably carps that
detainees are treated poorly, that a child
died in detention, that a pregnant mother
was not given care, that a baby is crying
for his parents, and that a racist, corrupt,
uncaring, narcissistic President is
responsible for it all.
It then tosses in a dollop of pedagogy to
school Americans that the term “illegal
alien” is racist, demeaning, and absolutely
needs to be excised from the lexicon. All
migrants, legal and otherwise, should be
called “immigrants.” Most media outlets
conform. New York City fines a violator
$250,000 for using the term “illegal alien.”
[3] Universities take it one step further
and now fail students who use the term
“illegal immigrant” on term papers.[4]
But despite this fusillade of sympathy for
immigrants, that is, illegal immigrants,
there is a large segment of American society
that isn´t playing along.
Whatever this demographic is named —some
call them “deplorables”—these Americans
actually object to a million people entering
the country without visas. They really do.
Here´s a voice large segments of the media
and Democrats in particular, have not heard,
are not listening to, but most importantly,
will not listen to:
“Just because I don´t like these folks
coming into our country, I don´t like being
called a racist. I don´t like being told I
am intolerant or that I´m a hate criminal. I
just don´t like a hundred and fifty thousand
foreigners slipping into our country every
month, enrolling in our schools, using fake
social security numbers, taking jobs, having
babies who are given citizenship on the
spot, being granted driver´s licenses, even
medical insurance, and getting away with it
all. The media and the Democratic Party seem
to support every bit of it. And if you are
opposed like I am, they call you a bigot.
The only person I see who represents my
feelings at all is Donald Trump!”
Most Democrats think something in those
words is deeply offensive, or racist, or
politically incorrect, or at the very least
inappropriate, but unfortunately they
represent feelings of real people. . . lots
and lots of real people.[5]
Eighty percent of Americans think illegal
immigration is a serious problem, [6] and
if Democrats and the liberal media do not
wake up, Trump is going to exploit this
sentiment and take illegal immigration
fears, worries, and anger right to the bank.
He did it before, and he´ll do it again.
Reason 2: Impeachment backlash
Americans are weary of the impeachment
circus parading on their nightly news.
Impeachment talk began as soon as Trump took
office and continued throughout his entire
Presidency. If there was insufficient
Mueller proof that the President colluded,
that morphed into obstruction. And when
obstruction withered, the Ukrainegate flag
was raised for more saluting.
But a large share of the American body
politic is beleaguered beyond belief by the
obsessive CNN-MSNBC-New York Times fixations
on this subject. Some of the population just
doesn´t buy in. They are tired. They believe
most of it is based on falsehood, rumor,
inaccuracy, and wholesale hatred of the
President of the United States.
We don´t know exactly how big that
demographic is, but wherever this sliver of
the population looks, and every late-night
comedian they encounter, it seems just
another anti-Trump propaganda foil is
walking on stage. Whether Stephen Colbert,
Trevor Noah, John Oliver, Seth Meyers, Kathy
Griffin, Bill Maher or the entire cast of
Saturday Night Live, Trump hatred syndrome
seems ubiquitous.
Despite these media festivities, an
important backlash is incubating to which
Democrats seem oblivious. They don´t realize
that the sanctimonious moral purity trip has
gone on far too long, in too great an
excess, and inside the inflating bubble of
Trumpian animus, scads of
on-the-fence-independent voters are fed up
with the piety, condescension, character
assassination, and saying to themselves,
“enough is enough!”
Trump is going to accuse the media, Rachel
Maddow, Major Garret, Jake Tapper, CNN, the
Washington Post and SNL of promoting a witch
hunt made up of falsehood, rumor, innuendo,
defamation, endless conspiracies, constant
attacks on his Presidency, character, and
family, and he will remind his twitter
followers that none of this turned out to be
true. He will wear the “No collusion, No
obstruction, Fake News” trope blazoned
across his chest right across the finish
line into 2020.
And it isn´t going to help the sanctimony of
the Democratic Party one bit when Joe Biden
keeps insisting that his son never came to
him and said “Hey, dad I just got a job in
the Ukraine that pays $50,000 a month! No
experience necessary.” Democrat elites
magically convinced themselves that
Americans will believe Hunter Biden never
got around to mentioning any of that to his
dad. But they may be underestimating the
intelligence of the electorate.
Vote for Joe? Seriously?
