This one’s for you, Mr. Antifascist and Ms. Pink Pussy Hat, now that electors have confirmed your long nightmare is over. Do you still think the stupid, futile gestures were worth the vacation days you expended – while your peers were at work impressing your Republican boss? Sure, you’ve a right to protest, but do you still think Trump was the moral equivalent of Jim Crow, smog-choked Pittsburgh, or the Vietnam War? Put down the crack pipe and read closely.
You wouldn’t know a real fascist if Mussolini jumped out your rear, but you and your beta-male friends took protest to Mad Max levels (apocalyptic acts and images) that alienated the moral majority. Books weren’t burned at MAGA rallies and immigrant-owned businesses were not shuttered. Yes, the secret police (CIA/FBI) and death squads were active, but they spied on Trump’s team (Flynn) and shot Republican softballers (Scalise).
The deep state was caught red-handed, proving no American was or ever will be beyond their freedom-killing reach. What does it say when the CIA and FBI turn on their rightful boss? It says they are out of control. Brennan and Comey think they’re just that right and 64,000,000 Trump voters were gullible sweathogs. Their arrogance did not yield a just resistance: it undermined democratic principles. By the way, they took an oath to serve we the people.
Washington Democrats proved themselves incapable of emotional patience, screaming and scheming for four years – and to what end? Rather than a Jim Crow revival, Trump delivered record black employment and prison reforms. Other than reckless California wildfires spewing carbon into the air, America’s air got cleaner because of cheap natural gas – and auto makers committed to electric cars (see Ford) on their own. And Trump’s bringing the troops home.
The last four years exposed an absence of intellectual honesty in America’s elite cognoscenti. They listened to HOW Trump spoke and missed WHAT he was saying – like pay your fair share, Europe, for NATO protection. What exactly is wrong with allies keeping their financial promises? Nothing, just as there was nothing wrong with the WALL or scrapping NAFTA or bullying Iran or supporting police or funding historically black colleges or calling COVID the China Flu.
The true boors were the #MeToo screamers at the Kavanaugh confirmation hearings. The real racists were academic elites who demanded higher grades and test scores of hard-working and law-abiding Asians. The real threat to democracy were the Antifa wackos destroying storefronts and beating up flag-carrying patriots. We saw you for what you were. So, enjoy the Biden years and get back to your state of being far out! At least there will be silence for the rest of us.
