“I nederlaget, bitterhed! I sejrens stund, hævn!” som det siges i Yes Minister afsnittet Party Games (jule afsnittet hvor ministeren bliver statsminister).
Når man som jeg, beskrives som både en sykofant og en parasit og en nazist, for at se Trump som den måske største amerikanske præsident i landets historie, er det lidt løjerligt at jeg tager Demokraternes enorme valgsejr ved Midtvejsvalget forleden, så roligt. Det er der andre der ikke gør, men det er sjovt nok alle dem der ‘vandt’ valget. “I’ve got Trump Derangement Syndrome!” raser James Carville således umotiveret “I hate the motherfucker!”
And you know what? I don’t want to get rid of it! I don’t want to get better! I want it to get worse! I want to hate him more! I pray to god in heaven: God, rain the righteous rain of Trump Derangement Syndrome! Pray for me, Lord! I’m your vessel on this earth; pray for the people that listen to this: We want more! We wanna hate the son of a bitch so much that we can’t see straight
Ingen taknemmelighed fra ham, det ønske blev allerede givet i ‘16. “The Democratic base more than ANYTHING wants to HUMILIATE that son of a b*tch at EVERY point that we possibly can!” raser han videre i en anden video “We want to watch him wither in anguish and misery and PAIN!“.
Carville gjorde sig, ironisk nok, kendt i politiske kredse, da han som kampagneleder for Bill Clinton i 1992 borede “It’s the economy, stupid!” ind i stabens og Clintons hjerner. Det var vigtigt at holde fokus på, hvad der var vigtigt og hvad der betød noget for vælgernes liv og USAs fremtid. Nu beder han til Gud om mere had, fordi han ‘hader skiderikken’. Det er ikke sundt for det mentale helbred.
Måske er det kampen mod alkoholismen, der er tabt. I hvert fald tager Carville fejl; rigsretssager tilfredsstiller ikke basens hævntørst. En lesbisk udseende kvinde med en tyrering i næsen, taler således sig selv, alene i sin bil(!), ind i et hysteri af blodtørst
“I don’t want impeachment. I don’t want them to serve time. I want them taken into the city town square, hung from their ankles, and gut them from groin to chin”
Videoen nåede forbi 1,6 mio. likes! Og det er ikke blot ungdommelig kådhed, der åbenbart kun er centreret hos Demokraterne. En 70 årig mand konfronterede hysterisk et par unge mænd fra Turning Point USA, der havde sat en lille debat-bod op. Som han skreg sig selv op i en spids, slog han en til sidst af de unge mænd i ansigtet. “In today’s siloed media environment, many read little about opposing views and have even less interaction with others from a different perspective” skrev Jonathan Turley sagtmodigt. Og det bliver jo ikke bedre, hvis vi veksler mellem at kaste dissidenterne i fængsel eller sprætte dem op fra skridt til hals, hængende på hovedet på byens torv, når der nu er små debat-boder tilgængelige.
Når det er basen for Demokraterne, er det ikke mærkeligt, at man i The Gateway Pundit kan læse “Missouri Democrat State Rep. Anthony Ealy was arrested on Wednesday morning for trespassing at an apartment and threatening to kill a couple shortly after being reelected.” Og i New York Post kan man læse “Dem candidate gets elected to the House in surprise win — and has a court appearance for car theft next week”. For fjenden står til højre: “Far-left group 50501 in Minnesota has announced a direct action in St. Paul on November 7, suggesting that they will become violent against Democrat politicians if they do not finish a list of left-wing policy demands.” Hyg jer med flertallet.
Jonathan Turley skriver at tiltroen til demokratiet er dalende i Vesten. Og det er fortrinsvis på venstrefløjen, som føler sig truet af højrefløjens krav om at sikre valgene fra valgfusk. Turley skriver at “a recent survey found roughly six in 10 (59%) Democrats polled said they would feel “very positive” or “somewhat positive” if the US military removed Trump and seized control of the American government”.
The survey also found the same overwhelming support for socialism in the new Democratic Party. What is surprising is the support for public ownership of industries. That includes almost half (46%) supporting public ownership and operation of grocery stores. Almost 40 percent support public ownership and operation of restaurants. (39%).
Det er alt Trump relateret, også Elon Musk, som hades. Scott Galloway fortalte til et arrangement med Kara Swisher at vi lever en usund tid, fordi vi dyrker innovatører, som kan leve efter andre standarder end os andre. Hvilket logisk for venstrefløjen fører til udsagnet “Elon Musk is a traitor to the West!” Jeg ved ikke hvorfor lige han kerer sig for Vestens velbefindende, men hans konklusion er “We lined up the Rosenbergs against a wall… This is a traitor to the West and he should be held up to the same standards as every other traitor in the West”.
Hillary Clinton er inde på samme spor, men som jurist erkender hun at en benådning ender den ublu hævntørst. Men en hævntørst er der stadig, så Hillary pointerer, ligesom Republikanerne gjorde med Anthony Fauci, at en benådning ikke beskytter dig fra at vidne ved endeløse høringer. Er du benådet skal der svares, ingen ‘taking the 5.’, fordi benådningen netop beskytter dig imod at inkriminere dig selv. Hillary konkluderer triumferende “Let [Trump] pardon Elon and then let’s call him in and figure out what he has to say”. Giv mig manden og jeg skal give dig forbrydelsen, som Beria sagde. Processen er straffen.
Demokraterne har som sagt ganske vist fået et kæmpe flertal og det er ganske vist problematisk for Trump og regeringen. Men hvilket mandat har de egentlig fået? Hvis folk er sure over benzinpriserne, er det ikke den grønne dagsorden. Hvis folk er skuffede over Iran krigen, er de ikke for fortsat engagement i Ukraine. Hvis folk er skuffede over at Republikanerne ikke udnyttede deres flertal, vil de næppe have Demokraternes politik, eller skulle man sige politikker, så splittede partiet er blevet ved at omfavne alting anti-Trump og anti-USA/Vesten. Det er svært at skræve over sharia og trans ideologi
Det er ikke besynderligt, at det er de progressive, der hader mest og tyer mest til vold. Vold er den logiske konsekvens af progressivismen. Hvor konservatisme, socialdemokratisme, liberalisme forsøger at indkredse noget statisk sandt eller godt, er progressivismen hele tiden i bevægelse. Man kan kæmpe for de homoseksuelle den ene dag, for at hade deres reaktionære opfattelse af biologisk køn den næste. Alting grasserer og hvis du ikke grasserer med i samme hast bliver de rasende. Det er en lille trøst, at skulle de progressive få held med at omstyrte samfundet, vil de øjeblikkeligt blive halshugget af muslimerne.
Som Cynical Publius mindede om
Obama made DEI the most important policy of his 8 years with the deliberate intent of turning non-racist, non-misogynist young white men into racist misogynists as a means of self defense against the discrimination he imposed on them.
Basically, we have a generation of young white men who decided “If everyone is going to discriminate against us, we need to band together and get tribal like everybody else.”
That’s a rational choice, but it’s also succumbing to evil.
En af grundene til at jeg tager det roligt, skuffet ganske vist over ikke at se ‘revolutionen rulle ufortrødent videre’ er at det blot er historien om Trump og vores tid. Så megen tilbagegang afslører kun problemets omfang. Ligesom hvis man skulle skifte et vinduesparti og i processen opdager at der er råd i træværket, og som det adresseres, finder man sprækker i fundamentet. Konklusionen er ikke, at man skulle have ladet vinduet være, men at det ville være værre, hvis ikke man gjorde noget ved det. Hans Mahncke kommer med et perspektiv
The period after Trump’s election in 2016 was, without a doubt, the most magical time in politics I have ever experienced. There was so much excitement and anticipation, the feeling that finally someone was going to go scorched earth on the establishment, the deep state, the media, and all the rot that was eating away at Western civilization.
Instead, they went scorched earth on Trump. They just kept coming at him with an endless barrage of lawfare, lies, and leaks. Russiagate, Ukrainegate, Covid, impeachments, indictments, raids, arrests, and even an assassination attempt he narrowly survived. It never stopped.
Despite it all, he pulled off the greatest comeback in history. And then, for the past two years, he has been blocked and sabotaged all over again, this time less by Democrats than by Republicans.
Joel Pollack mener at “what really drove the “blue wave” was Trump’s success” fordi han “followed through on almost every promise he made to voters in 2024” Grænsepolitikken ser brutal ud, men det var, hvad vælgerne ville have; at vinde over Kina i AI kapløbet (EU er end ikke i tankerne!) var også et løfte, som det at konfrontere Iran, der har været et af Trumps løfter siden han kom ned ad sin guldrulletrappe i ‘15. “In every case, Trump did what was in the national interest, even though it had massive political costs”. Selvom tarifferne var klodset udført, var de ligedes et løfte fra Trump, der har troet på dem , “de smukkeste ord i det engelske sprog” siden hedenold.
(Jeg vil selv bemærke at at det klodsede ikke var vigtigt, men at presse dem igennem for at demonstrere intentionen bag og at princippet i den politik ikke er til forhandling, kun formen. Det samme som Obama’s Affordable Care Act, eller Obamacare,, som det blev kaldt, som nu ikke synes at kunne rulles tilbage, selvom det var en ekstrem dyr omgang, og derfor handler diskussionen mere om, hvorledes man reformerer den, så den fungerer. Det vigtigste for Demokraterne og Obama, var at få en mere udbygget offentlig sundhedssektor – og det fik de. Trump får sine tariffer).
Pollack konstaterer, at Obamas sidste to år i Det Hvide Hus var spildt, mens “Reagan’s last two years saw rapid economic growth and the beginning of the end of the Soviet Union’s communist empire”. Man kan derfor håbe, at Trump får etableret en fred i Ukraine og det iranske styres sammenbrud. “I mean, my goodness. Donald Trump pulled off the greatest comeback of all time” som Hans Mahncke skrev og noterede, at Republikanerne ikke var til megen hjælp som flertal. Trump “handed Republicans a historic opportunity, and starting the morning after his victory, they set about squandering it, sabotaging his agenda, and undermining all the people who might have made his second term a success”. Og at tro, at Iran var den eneste forklaring på grund af benzinpriser, fratager Republikanerne muligheden for selvransagelse.
Og hvad skulle Trump egentlig have gjort, spurgte X-profilen American Debunk og mindede om at en analyse “need to assume Trump had additional information you and I don’t have”
Let’s now walk through all of the options Trump had at his disposal prior to the war.
A. Go to war now before the midterms. Best case: Trump wraps up the war before November and takes a disarmed Iran into the midterms as an accomplishment. If the war runs long, Trump still has a two-year buffer before 2028. Wrap it up by 2028 and he has a disarmed Iran and indefinite regional peace set up for a Vance, Rubio. In this option, Trump may sacrifice Congress in 2026 for a Vance or Rubio White House in 2028.
B. Wait until after the midterms. This is the same war but worse timing. If it drags into 2028, Vance or Rubio’s campaign is bogged down by “Trump’s war”. Their odds drop. Now you are one election away from AOC, Kamala, or Newsom inheriting a war, and that is the last thing on the planet you want, right?
C. Kick it to the next president. This is just delaying the inevitable. If Rubio or Vance wins, you at least have two of the best people available to inherit the problem. But if they lose, the least equipped people to run a war on the planet are going to have to take military action against a nuclear Iran. That’s the risk of kicking the can down the road. “Wait until the next term” only works if you also win in 2028. Super risky. You do NOT want to run the risk of AOC, Kamala, or Newsom having to take military action against Iran.
D. No military intervention whatsoever. Not now. Not in four years. Not in 10 years. Let Iran build the nuke and use it and let Europe, Israel, and Middle East region fend for themselves. If you don’t like your gas prices now…wait until you see them then. This evolves into World War III.
Many of you can see it now, right? The war is not ideal, but is still necessary. And once you look at every option side by side, Trump’s course (Option A) is not only reasonable, but the best option, because when you see all the options at once, you see things more clearly.
There are going to be people who reply to this post before reading the whole thing. If you’re reading this part, I want you to read through the replies after this post gets a lot of traction and notice how some people will say Trump “shouldn’t” have gone to war.
These people would not be able to make an argument to support this opinion without the word “should” or “shouldn’t”.
Nu skal vi i gang med et nyt kapitel i Trump sagaen. Demokraterne ved ikke, hvorfor folk har stemt på dem, og de forskellige fraktioner ser hver deres retninger blåstemplet, om det er retten til at køns-lemlæste børn, billigere offentlig transport, hævn, kommunistisk diktatur, sharia…
