Both sides of the American political aisle agree on at least one major observation about the upcoming presidential election. The house organ of the left, The New York Times, is calling November’s vote the most important since 1860. While Elon Musk, who veers conservative, weighed in saying at a recent Donald Trump rally in Pennsylvania how this election is the most important of our lifetime. There is no denying that the stakes are high and that the hype surrounding it is more than warranted.
After months of madness on the campaign trail, Musk contrasted Trump shaking his fist after getting shot to Joe Biden’s trouble ascending stairs. “America is the home of the brave,” he stated. “There’s no truer test than courage under fire.”
Musk is a swing-state proxy, who knew?
America is at a crossroads and so are its political parties.
Historically, the 2024 campaign is unlike none other. The unprecedented and egregious lawfare waged nonstop against Donald Trump placed the Democrats’ machinations, and vindictiveness on full throttle.
As Stalin’s head of the Soviet secret police infamously spewed, “show me the man and I’ll show you the crime.” Identify the target, and then find something to charge him with. Today its Trump, tomorrow it is grandma praying in front of an abortion clinic.
It would not be the first time.
In October 2021, pro-life activist Mark Houck and his twelve-year-old son were conducting a prayer vigil near an abortion clinic in Philadelphia and were charged with violating the FACE Act. Nearly a year later on September 23, 2022, at 6:30 a.m., nearly two dozen heavily armed FBI agents arrived at Houck’s Pennsylvania home and arrested him. Four months later, Houck was found not guilty.
Many fail to grasp how this nation is swinging so precariously close to the edge.
The two Trump failed assassination attempts, and their ensuing investigations possessed all the typical earmarks of a government operational failure: ineffective, secretive and unaccountable. There are five known teams out to kill Trump; six, if you count the women of The View who know Trump is 78 and at 265 pounds are rooting hard for clogged arteries.
Trump’s return to Butler, Pennsylvania, where the first attempt took place, was one for the history books. In retrospect, Lincoln would never visit Ford’s Theatre in D.C. again, and Kennedy never returned to Dealey Plaza in Dallas. Trump’s return drew an overflow crowd in the tens of thousands. A week before, Trump received huge cheers at the Alabama-Georgia football game in Tuscaloosa. Yet the polls and media preach how Trump trails both in the popular and Electoral College vote.
Perhaps the biggest political canard in American history is the ongoing cover-up of Joe Biden’s declining mental fitness. We are continually misled by the White House and Vice President Harris in conjunction with the mainstream media. If Biden was a Republican, every American would be well-versed in the 25th Amendment thanks to the media that would be howling nightly about Biden’s removal from office.
After Biden’s disastrous debate performance and dropping out of the race, Harris continues to double down on vouching for Biden’s mental vigor. In the wake of Hurricane Helene, Biden was painfully on display, responding to an interviewer about relief efforts, “I was wondering what storm you’re talking about.”
Biden also claims he averted the longshoreman’s strike that it is far from over. The longshoreman and their union remain in a holding pattern until after the election in order not to hurt Democrats.
When questioned on The View as to what Harris would do differently than Biden, she replied, “There is not a thing that comes to mind.” Given the disapproval with the Biden administration if this isn’t enough to change a few minds, then what is?
Although the average American’s weekly paycheck has grown, it buys less than in 2020. Business profits sink when adjusted for inflation – the hidden tax – with the only winner in this equation is Uncle Sam who continues to drown deeper into debt in waters never imagined.
Hillary Clinton continues to whine that provided Trump is elected, it will end America as we know it today.
Here’s hoping Bill Clinton’s lovely bride is finally right about something.
