If Democrats had their way, Donald Trump would n’t be anywhere near the presidency again. But wrote MSNBC’s Hayes Brown on the day of the 2024 referendum’s last time. Democrats are angry, and Trump is close to winning the president, apparently by significant margins.
The “biggest contribution to the , uneasiness that millions of Americans have felt , as Election Day methods”, Brown wrote, is” that there is any anxiety about the results at all. The 2024 vote should not be everywhere near , as tight as it appears, not with Trump’s label on the ballot for the second straight vote”.
Brown is right that the election should n’t be close, but he’s wrong about why.
The best thing for the state would not be a big or small triumph for Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, and their sham “unity” gimmick. It would n’t even be a razor-thin Trump-Vance win. The best course of action for our country’s wellness — and democracy’s — would be a landslide win for Donald Trump.
Simply Desert
First, and most important, America needs a significant victory to speak to Democrat leaders, media propagandists, administrative tyrants, aggressive rioters, Big Tech censors, competition hustlers, and rogue three-letter agencies that their devious and frequently illegal actions will not be rewarded with political victory.
No, Democrats do n’t deserve to win after waging unprecedented lawfare against their political opponents, from the former president to peaceful pro-life protesters. They do n’t deserve to win after turning federal agencies into a Democrat get-out-the-vote hydra. Or after being dishonest about the election’s legitimacy and prosecuting Americans who questioned the processes and outcomes. Or after inciting racial murder that destroyed large sections of bridge America and lying that the violence and looting were “mostly peaceful“
Democrats do n’t deserve to win after broadcasting blatant and unconstitutional propaganda on network television 24/7/365. Or after working with Major Tech elites to demonize the truth as “misinformation” Or after raiding Joe Biden’s house to arrest Donald Trump over a rumored document violence.
Democrats should n’t be able to win if they deceived their commander-in-chief into believing he was physically fit and plotted an undemocratic coup when it became clear he could n’t defeat Trump. They should n’t be able to succeed if they deceive themselves about employment statistics and violent crime statistics.
Democrats should n’t get to smear their opponents as racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic, Nazi, fascist garbage deplorables but pretend to be standard-bearers of “unity” and “decency” and be rewarded with a” W”.
In addition to all of these, Democrat protesters continue to hang over the heads of the rest of the nation because of an implicit threat. It’s simultaneously infantile and violent: If we do n’t get our way, we’ll make your life miserable. Once again, as voting comes to a close, business establishments in America’s urban centers have boarded up their windows, and we all know it is n’t in anticipation of a Harris-Walz win. If the Trump-deranged leftist toddlers do n’t get their way, it will lessen the harm in the tantrum.
However, this time around, the imagery is more nuanced: it shows a clumsy baby screaming after being denied a piece of chocolate on the floor of a supermarket. It’s of a child who taunts and antagonizes his older sisters until they’ve had enough and counterstrike.
It’s that easy, actually: Just a Trump disaster will connect the degree to which American are done with Democrats ‘ dirty tricks.
Strong Results
Next, for belief in our democratic process, it’s damaging for Americans not to hear the poll results on election night. A decisive Trump victory, however, could give us a quick and confidence-boosting conclusion.
The “new normal” of days-long ballot counting is n’t normal at all. Jeffrey Toobin, best known for praising himself on a work Zoom call, said,” The one thing no one expected in a presidential campaign is that we would n’t know who won on Election Day,” just eight years ago in a New York Times documentary about the tense 2000 presidential election between George W. Bush and Al Gore. The New York Times is now preparing voters so that they wo n’t be informed of the results right away, for instance, by stating that” Pennsylvania is likely to take longer than election night.”
Anti-Trump secretaries of state are saying the same. In addition to Pennsylvania’s Al Schmidt, two other swing-state election chiefs — Georgia’s Brad Raffensperger and Michigan’s Jocelyn Benson — have gone on the air to make excuses for why they may not have votes tallied on election night. As my colleague Brianna Lyman wrote, this is despite election-night results being” the norm in America for decades” and , still , being” the norm in many much larger states”.
Vote counting delays stoke a ferocious distrust in our democratic process. Something shady happened in Michigan and Wisconsin just four years ago in the dead of night while most voters and journalists were asleep. In both swing states, Trump dominated on election night, as my colleague John Daniel Davidson noted at the time. And in both states, overnight mail-in ballot dumps came in at 100 % for Biden and a whopping 0 % for Trump. On Twitter, those who pointed out this ostensibly statistical impossibility were censored.
Of course, a landslide victory for Harris could result in a quick victory, but there’s another thing she ca n’t do best for the American people.
A Better America
Finally, Trump’s policies will obviously be better for Americans than Harris’, and we all know it. Despite Democrats attempting to brand Harris as the” change” candidate, we’re living under her “leadership” right now, and it’s a nightmare. The Biden-Harris administration has made Americans less free, less safe, and less secure in the future due to a failing economy, a border crisis, deadly foreign policy, and a war against the First Amendment. She is the only person who can say that she is” not Donald Trump” and that she offers on-demand elective abortion.
On the contrary, we all remember life under Trump, and despite the media squawking nonstop, it was a relatively peaceful and prosperous four years. No new wars, a more secure border, a booming economy, affordable homes, flourishing families, and pride in our great country — this was Trump’s America. Democrats should also be reminded of it, not just by a minor defeat but also by a significant defeat.
A Trump victory this week would spare afflicted Americans from living in Biden-Harris hell. But the best thing for the country — for justice, democracy, and everyday living — would be not just a win but an absolute blowout.
