Wars Visible and Invisible, Part III

A week before the election he called Trump "a threat to the stock market" and within months of his presidency declared that Trump had "No leadership skills." But evidently Trump's performance caused him to change his assessment.

The underhanded attacks from these figures, their progressive allies and the Democrat leadership, sprang from a much deeper source of hostility to Trump and his followers than objections to language or manners, or other alleged character defects could provide.

Democrats' hatred of Trump is at its core a hatred of his patriotism - derided by Democrats as "White nationalism." It is hatred of his pride in America, his pledge to restore American greatness and to put America first in his priorities as America's commander-in-chief.

What the founders feared most was the division of the country into party factions that would prey on the emotions and illusions of the electorate in order create a tyranny of the majority which would run roughshod over the minority - a pretty accurate summary of the Democrats' three year campaign to resist, obstruct and remove a president elected by 63 million Americans.

The Electoral College was an institution created by the founders to force compromise and comity - the exact opposite of what the divisive party of Pelosi, Schumer and Schiff set out to achieve, first with their "Resistance" to Trump, and then with their attempt - reminiscent of the Salem witch trials - to nullify an election.

In Federalist 10, the constitution's chief architect, James Madison, warned about the dangers of radical factions and explained that it was the plan of the founders to thwart them, and to protect the new nation from "a rage for paper money, for an abolition of debts, for an equal division of property, or for any other improper or wicked project," - which pretty well sums up the agendas of the Democrat Party today.

This is why Democrats hate Trump and in the midst of America's wars, both visible and invisible, are willing to aid America's enemies both at home and abroad. David Horowitz is the author of the forthcoming Humanix book, Blitz: Trump Will Smash the Left and Win.
