VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: They look at Trump as a vampire and they put a stake in his heart but they're afraid that that stake could come out any time. That he's undying and they're afraid of him. They are terrified of him.
They are terrified of him because they think he's smarter this time and he has just cause to really get angry because of what they did to him. They can write all of The Atlantic Monthly and New Yorker clever, glib little essays about "Donald Trump is a threat to democracy," and their little Molly Ball in Time Magazine essays how clever and brilliant they were with their cabals and conspiracies to get rid of him.
But deep down inside they know that if the right ever did that to Barack Obama or Joe Biden, they could have really made something out of the fact that Barack Obama had a hot mic expose where he told the president of Russia, "You tell Vladimir that I will be flexible on missile defense." That's the security of the United States of America. "If he gives me space in my last election." Putin did do that. That's an impeachable offense if a phone call to Ukraine is. So they understand that, the right could have done that to them, and they understand now the right probably will do that to them for their own survival, and they are scared.
They're saying that if a MAGA candidate wins, and they win the House and Senate, they're cooked because they're going to get special prosecutors and go after the Biden family like they've never gone after anybody. And they're going to find stuff because we know Joe is crooked. And then they're going to go after [Attorney General] Merrick Garland and [Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro ] Mayorkas. And they're not going to stop. And that's why they're scared.
Everybody thinks the danger passed, they got what they wanted. No, no, no, you're never going to see anything like what they're going to do in 2024. All of this could have been reconciled, all they had to do was say Donald Trump should not be president if that's what they believe, and we're not going to do any lawfare or try to change the voting laws or pack the court, we're not going to let in two states, we're not going to try to abolish the Senate filibuster, we're not going to try to change the voting ID laws, we're just going to play under the rules we have, we don't need $419 million by Mark Zuckerberg infused, we don't need Sam Bankman-Fried, the crook, giving us $100 million, we're not going to go under the radar with George Soros, we're just going to show you, the American people how we think Donald Trump should not be president and we'll have a fair election. They can't do that, and they don't trust themselves.
They think anybody in his right mind would close that border right now. Anybody in his right mind would recall all of those DAs that have destroyed these major cities. Anybody in his right mind would not beg the Saudis or the Venezuelans or the Russians or the Iranians to pump oil on the eve of a midterm, or pump the strategic petroleum reserve when you have so much natural gas in the U.S. Nobody in their right mind would do that. nd nobody in their right mind would ever just pull out of Afghanistan without warning just so Joe Biden can say that on the 20th anniversary of 9/11 or the original OctNOTIFY: Y | REPLY | REPLY WITH QUOTE | PERMALINK | TOP | HOME

SECOND: With you Trumptards, bluntness is the only effective way to communicate with you: if Trump is not the GOP's candidate in 2024, then Biden will graciously submit if he should lose the election. But if Trump is the GOP's candidate and Biden loses, he should not politely turn the office over to Trump. If Biden doesn't have the intestinal fortitude, the guts, to stop Trump from taking office after Biden loses, he deserves to lose. If Biden won't violently prevent America's own Nazi leadership from taking power, he is a worthless, cowardly person. We will discover who Biden truly is if Trump wins. Keeping it blunt, Biden kills Trump rather than let Trump be President. There have been Presidents who died soon after being sworn in. Trump will be just one more:
• 1 1841: William Henry Harrison.
• 2 1850: Zachary Taylor.
• 3 1865: Abraham Lincoln.
• 4 1881: James A. Garfield.
• 5 1901: William McKinley.
• 6 1923: Warren G. Harding.
• 7 1945: Franklin D. Roosevelt.
• 8 1963: John F. Kennedy.
• 9 2025: Donald J Trump. (PENDING)

Like SECOND, the DNC hates democracy.
Elite Dems and their backers don't even think of themselves as Americans. In their minds they are part of the great transnational ubermensch. They are the real fascists.

SECOND: It is all about money, Signym. I'm going to go a step further: most people don't know what they are doing because they can't know any more than a pack of chimps knows the meaning of their furry little lives. There is nothing new about that for the last 300,000 years which is why the top 0.1% of humans invented gods to give the lower 99.9% of hairless apes a purpose and a direction in life vastly superior to chimpanzees.
If people knew what elite Dems and their donors REALLY think of them, they'd recall them from office in a heartbeat.
