2021's Big Election Lesson: ‘It's The Culture, Stupid'

After four years of Donald Trump, Americans in 2020 handed the reins of national government over to the Joe Biden Democrats.

No, of equal or greater importance was something Republicans usually think of as their weakness but now could be their strength: our common culture.

It's often said that the Democrats and their sympathetic far-left allies occupy the commanding heights of American culture.

The Republican Party has long largely shrugged at the leftist titans of culture who determine what's cool and hip, what words are permissible, what we watch and read online, and who gets jobs and influence in the cultural realm.

Thanks in large part to the parents' revolt against the teaching of Critical Race Theory in Virginia and elsewhere, which severely damaged Democratic candidates, the GOP may have rediscovered the potency of culture.

Those are all elements of our national culture that have been systematically attacked by the organized left and its political arm, the Democrats.

It's not simply about "Policies." They've taken a wrecking ball to our national political and social culture, part of the ongoing culture war meant to disorient, demoralize and distract average Americans.
