Kamala Harris was deemed rude by Americans because she reminded them of a patronizing administrator who cloaked her stupidity by reprimanding everyone who was smarter than her. In response to her crushing fight, Democrats made that persona their whole personality.
The press and other Democrats assumed the ugly part of painful losers yelling “you can’t do that” when the Trump presidency arrived in Washington with the air of” we can only do things.” ( Where, oh where, was this principled originalist restraint used to try to imprison a political opponent while backing up a Potemkin president? )
Trump’s view has liberals wondering: What were Republicans doing for our whole life? After all these years of talking about sluggish government, we could simply stop spending tens of thousands of dollars on transgender comic books in Peru right now. All those witty things about men in female ‘ locker rooms were sorely needed, and all it took was the guts to say much.
His method has a long history of resentment and contempt for every success that voters support, but his approach has his backers slammed for it. How dare you object to your tax money being used to buy condoms for terrorists? The authorities weren’t actually paying off Politico for its good protection, they were really buying an immoral number of five-figure memberships. You’re therefore un-Christian for giving more thought to the health of your home than those traitless criminals ICE is sending back across the frontier!
It’s a left-to-right visual rake that keeps moving. No one thinks” curtailing government’s power and reach” is” the most damaging” thing to ever happen except the bad guys. There has never been a clearer indication of how hated Americans are the folks who wax the Washington puddle.
Get your aback when Elon Musk brings in a few twenty-something geniuses to help reduce government waste. They are “lacking in state practice”, the press warn. Government knowledge, after all, is what has made our bloated federal bureaucracy but useful and effective in helping taxpayers! The IRS’s customer service representatives must have a wealth of state knowledge, I wager.
The issue is that American glory was not brought on by government experience. If a Dr. Fauci-like team had overseen the space program, we would never have been able to reach the sun. Without Mark Milley, we would never have made it to Berlin.
As often as not, British greatness has happened in an attempt to demonstrate the “you can’t complete thats” wrong. Revolution is our founding story, after all! We carved out a continent because we thought we could, because we were brave enough to try, and not because we trusted the authorities.
When Chuck Yeager broke the audio challenge, he was 24 years older. Due to his wound preventing him from reaching the burrow, he closed the plane’s hatch with a broom handle and broke two ribs. It’s a good thing OSHA wasn’t there to tell him that wasn’t healthy!
William Clark, one of the older men in the group, was the youngest person to explore the Louisiana Territory when he was 17 years old when he first joined the Corps of Discovery. When the Wright brothers ‘ flier touched down in Kill Devil Hills, they were in their 30s. Save me the hand-wringing if some young men are coming in to support the lake be dug up because the rest of America is pleased to see them.
There is a challenge for America’s heart, according to Joe Biden. The Experts have been stricken and given pensions for it, not the sweetened real estate mogul and his younger veep. The children who have fresh ideas are compared to the Chuck Schumer forms, who are actually swaying their canes. It’s the people who don’t care more about starting foreign war than keeping your roads healthy, versus the ones who do so in order to order their loved ones around their families and communities before the rest of the world.
The persons who were young and careless enough not to know they were doing things that were once deemed impossible were the people who built America. The former category would include told Lewis and Clark that their group of explorers didn’t have much mixed lesbians in it and grounded Yeager’s plane because it wasn’t up to code.
It’s not like statue-toppling, self-flagellating Democrats have made a solution of hating America. However, their mockery of American history has been replaced by mockery of American nature, and it’s playing out with an almost astonishing sincerity. The group that led to Barack Obama’s acceptance of the tagline” Yes We You” has evolved into the party of” No YouCan’t.” They stand athwart past yelling, you’re never authorized to do that without permission!
In the battle between the” just do things” and the “you can’t do thats”, whose side do you want to be on?
