Leave it to the New York Times to write subliminal headlines for Democrats, who were taken to the toolshed by Republicans everywhere but the White House: “Republicans and Dems Need to Work Together.” Does anyone think the Times would have urged bipartisanship if their predicted “blue wave” had swept America on Election Day? No way – no how – the official Jobama cheering section would be screaming, “Mandate!”
The Times has no idea how Trump lost AND dragged Republicans across the finish line – and why is that? Because they conflate European socialism with intelligence and never owned a small business or had a blue-collar job. They see the rejection, but don’t ask the plumber about his MAGA hat. I did and got a earful about putting America before China and Americans before illegal immigrants, and Democrats “stopping Sunday church.” Translation: Democrats are anti-American.
In 2020, Democrat governors were “anti-American” in restricting church services, while allowing protests and opening acupuncture shops. The high court righted this wrong last week in a 5-4 ruling for New York churches and an injunction against Governor Cuomo (D-NY). Had the late RBG a say, a 5-4 ruling for Cuomo would have angered 80% of Americans that espouse some religion.
As of today, Nancy Pelosi is clinging to a 4-seat majority in the House of Representatives and Chuck Schumer can only hope to stare down Mitch McConnell in the Senate. If they attempt to govern as the party of AOC and Bernie Sanders, they will get swept out in 2022 because “socialism” is a bad word in almost two-thirds of American households (source: PBS). It’s good to be a Republican because liberal media cannot stop treating AOC like Princess Di (over-exposed).
Democrats took a bloodbath in state houses from coast to coast: the GOP gained 40 senate seats and a whopping 192 house seats on Election Day, flipping control of three state chambers. As of today, Republicans control both chambers in 31 states to only 18 states for Democrats. With the exception of the sclerotic northeast and tech-crazy west coast, the map of America is overwhelmingly red – in spite of hundreds of millions poured into state elections by Messrs. Soros, Bloomberg and Zuckerberg.
The point here is that so-called liberals live in an echo chamber, which won’t have President Trump to fill their days and nights with smugness and pomposity. This means Liz Warren and Ilhan Omar will have to attack centrist Democrats to fire up their base, and the press will have to report Joe Biden’s mistakes. Meanwhile, Republicans pursue workable solutions and groom more non-white and non-male conservative candidates, who are kryptonite to Democrats.
I like to imagine the prospects of Nikki Haley and Tim Scott running in 2024. The DNC wouldn’t know what to do without identity politics, and I have a feeling the Dream Team would do unto Biden what Reagan did to Carter (similar “reaction” president). So, here’s the deal: America is not all that liberal and not the tiniest bit socialist. Let the Democrats have enough rope to hang themselves in the next two elections, I say.
