I donโt know if Niels Bohr, Nostradamus, Samuel Goldwyn or Yoga Berra was the first to use the phrase โPredictions are difficult, particularly about the future,โ or one of its many variants, but I think most of us would agree that they all have some validity.
Nevertheless, Iโm going to go ahead and make a big one and, yes, it involves that other hoary proverb about it always being darkest before the dawn, since we seem to be in a very dark period, butโฆ here goesโฆ
The Democratic Party is headed for epochal electoral disasters in 2022 and most probably 2024. They will be trounced by a renewed GOP.
And Iโm saying that even factoring in what many on the right believe with increasing justificationโa lot of cheating has been going on.
Yes, it will still be there in those years, but not as much because the number of people watching is going up exponentially.
America is poised for a big reaction. And Iโm not a Pollyannaโฆ well, not completely. Iโm just a one time high school physics student who remembers Newtonโs third law about action and reaction.
The big winner in those coming elections will be the Trump-DeSantis party, in whatever order emerges, and among the big losers, besides the Democrats, will be the thirty-five House Republicans who voted for a Jan. 6 investigation, however few of them are left after primary season.
Due to the overwhelming majority of the media (which few pay attention to anymore), the academy (a self-immolating problem I will get into in a moment) and their own extreme leftwing, the Democrats are losing contact with the American people on a daily basis.
In their gigantic, seemingly endless, spending programs, they ignore the obvious, spoken aloud by Bill Clinton in his 1996 State of the Union and not really contradicted since: โThe era of big government is over.โ
But didnโt it come back with COVID? Not much apparently.
In a newย Rasmussen pollย voters prefer small to big government by the significant margin of 55 percent to 37 percent. They also, in a poll only a week or two before,ย prefer capitalism to socialismย by more than three to oneโ65 percent to 18 percent. (Yes, Rasmussen tilts Republican but his record has historically been among the most accurateโand these arenโt close calls.)
