The covid eclipses the pandemic of which we had an intense outbreak this morning, the Trump Derangement SyndromeAnti-Trump delusion syndrome. Mea culpa: I admit the intense pleasure with which I went to bed this morning, the result of the flood of progressive tears that fell on social networks with the Republican’s victory.
I take up almost at random the tweet from a Bogotá city councilor from Petro’s party, perhaps because it summarizes in its vulgarity everyone’s message, Kamala Harris’ campaign message: “Trump wins. Racism, misogyny, xenophobia, classism and hatred prevail. Lose common sense.
What’s funny about this message, which half the country and half the planet fully believe in, has no basis in the real world. Trump was the first presidential candidate to outright accept same-sex marriage, he did not endorse any measures restricting women’s rights, he was the Republican candidate with the highest proportion of Hispanic and African-American votes. As for being “a threat to democracy,” the four years of his previous term are already sufficient proof of the absurdity of this accusation, which seems more like a projection of the Democrats than an inclination of Trump towards authoritarianism .
In fact, America voted for common sense. The American citizen voted to end the wave of madness woke up which sought to sever ties with a centuries-old democratic tradition that progressives in the Democratic Party have proven to loathe with true passion.
They voted for peace, to end the forever war, and on too many fronts, the hawks hovering over the senile Biden White House have brought us to the brink of unthinkable global nuclear war. Today the world is a little safer.
They voted to end gender ideology, with its strange vaudeville of men invading women’s most intimate spaces and winning medals in women’s sporting categories.
They voted against the suicidal tribalism of quota policy. One tweeter joked that Trump twice blocked the first woman from arriving at the White House. But if the first, Hillary Clinton, had at least some capacity for evil, the second, Vice President Harris, was just a quota, a figure chosen based on her gender and race according to the Joe Biden’s own confessions. The idea that one must vote for a certain candidate, even someone as unqualified as Kamala Harris, simply because she is a woman, is the latest expression of the most rancid sexism.
Speaking of race, they voted to end the indoctrination in the educational system of disastrous critical race theory, which posits that the United States is a historical mistake, a creation based solely on racial exploitation, an “amendment to the whole conceived”. cultivate destructive national self-hatred and create division among citizens.
They voted to stop the invasion of millions of illegal aliens across the southern border which, in addition to making a mockery of legality, was radically altering the country’s demographic balance, putting downward pressure on wages, allowing the probable entry of elements associated with international terrorism and the stimulation of drug trafficking.
They voted for environmental common sense, stopping at the limit of heatological idolatry which seeks to take us back to the Stone Age of the West (the rest of the world continues to emit CO2 as if it were there was no tomorrow, completely nullifying the presumed effects of our climatic virtue).
They voted to recover these forms, these rights, these institutions and this vision of individual freedoms which for decades made the United States a beacon for the rest of the world.
In short, they voted for optimism, for that confidence in their own strengths that characterized the United States in its best times, when it still seemed logical to fight for the American dream.
Trump’s undisputed victory represents a respite for the rest of the world, the certainty that the globalist future of increasing total control and restriction of freedoms, of accepted misery (“…and you will be happy”) is not not an inevitable destiny.
Meanwhile, let the seas cry.
