After deciding that Trump poses less of an existential threat than Harris, I noticed that the joyfully free Democrats are kind of mean, don’t really support freedom, and are doing more to subvert democracy than the guy who chose to sick an angry mob on the Capitol in an attempt to thwart the peaceful transfer of power. So how can this be?…How is it that the guy who refused to concede an election loss is less of an exitential threat than the joyful (D)s?
For one; the coronation of a candidate who not only received 0 popular votes to earn the nomination, but one whose last campaign platform owes more to Marx than it does Madison. It’s no longer a hyperbolic Trump trope. Price fixing (gauging, gouging, fixing, take your pick), subsidized housing, free health and education to Illegal (undocumented, new arrivals, unvetted entrants, take your pick) immigrants; these proposals will quite literally gut the American economy. NY has already requested $4 billion in the next fiscal year to cover all of the programs and support for migrants. It’s all OK, because Capitalism has led to inequality. Millionaires and Billionaires who don’t pay their fair share. If they did, then we could welcome our new friends and neighbors all the comforts of our homeland.
Meanwhile, city council meetings have seen shouting matches in Chicago, where minority communities that have been ignored for decades are rightfully asking why is it that newcomers are getting prioritized over them. Community leaders and activists are screaming at incumbent Democrats sounding like the conservative GOP they used to blame for their woes.
Britain should serve as a warning of what can happen when constituents are ignored and prodded into competing with illegal migrants for social services, jobs, medical care and housing. Kamala’s solution, as communicated through Elizabeth Warren, is to help Fast Track asylum seekers to citizenship. Under Obama’s DACA and Dream Acts, this could be viewed as compassionate and humanitarian, after this administration’s wide open border policy, this is national suicide. Obama, called deporter-in-chief, knew we needed to strengthen borders and deport bad apples before we could fast track those who, in some cases, had been in the US for years.
As many as 15 million fast tracked and added to (D) voter roles. D’oh!…that’s a conspiracy theory, right. Can’t be involved in any of those. But, even if these newcomers remain undocumented while they are being fast tracked, they would still be considered in census numbers that effect representation in the House of Representatives. Even if they don’t vote, immigrants still have the power of change on political landscape.
In hopes to help them carry out their plan, (D)’s are proposing to change the Supreme Court lifetime appointments to end. They have also proposed increasing the number of justices. Such flagrantly unconstitutional proposals would normally be decried, but when it comes with the caveat that they are doing this because the “extreme” SCOTUS wants to take away a woman’s choice, then it gains traction with a large swath of those who want nothing more than for 9 unappointed judges, not doctors or biologists, to tell all Americans exactly the moment life begins.
All this joy and freedom is infectious, right?
But, wait!…We’re going to eliminate all gas powered vehicles, lead the world in AI advancement, and eliminate gas stoves for electric ones. The Green mandates will save the planet and cure climate change. But, we can’t frack, can’t drill, can’t build nuclear power plants…So how can we fulfill these green mandates to go all electric by 2040 while also reducing power production? Does Kamala know? Does she care? Do you trust that she has the plan and she’s not going to reveal her secrets until after November 6?
A country full of EVs with no power to run them. AI with an outdated electrical grid that even in it’s present state couldn’t produce the power needed, let alone the power that is going to be needed to advance.
I save the most existential threat for last. Israel and its fight against Islamic extremism. It is not just our own pathetic lack of support that is existential, it is the reaction of a significant portion of the population that poses the problem. The conflict has exposed the failure of our educational institutions at the most elite levels. It exposes, not only profound ignorance of the history of the regaion, but the forces against Western democracy. The reaction to 10/7 and Israel’s response exposes racism and anitsemistism, true, but it is far more dangerous than this.
It can be seen in the oppressor \ oppressed Marxist pissing contest. The blame is not on Israel’s response, it is on the foundation of Western principles, written by slaveholders to keep whites in power at the expense of minorities. Capitalism causes poverty. Inequity of outcomes is due to a rigged system. While Kamala has attempted to distance herself somewhat from the most extreme elements of her party, she will get the votes of many, if not most, of the flag-burning, statue-toppling Marxist who want nothing more to build their Utopia upon the ashes of the old.
For once, Trump’s name-calling is not only accurate, it is necessary. Comrade Kamala is a threat to America because of what she represents. Not as an Indian African-American woman, but as a coddler of anti-semetic, anti-Western, Anti-Capitalist thought that is spreading across America, on-campus and off. Anti-police, Anti-ICE, DEI over merit. A real threat to bedrock principles of democracy.
I won’t get into lawfare. I’m not entirely convinced that Trump doesn’t pose a threat. Even in his 2.0 self. He has changed since 2016. He listens, he recognizes that there ARE norms and rules. Certainly, one doesn’t come so close to death and remain the same human being. There’s a new humility. A bit more of a gentle wink-and-nudge to his name-calling. The Fire & Fury president has traded his scorched Earth for a controlled burn. Yes, he’s still a troll. Yes he is crass. Yes, he’s not conventionally presidential. But, the alternative in Kamala Harris and (D) party seems truly frightening.
Kamala?
