Brace Yourself For What's Coming In 2024: Victor Davis Hanson Warns The Left Knows They're "Cooked" If "Vampire" Trump Wins
SUNDAY, NOV 26, 2023 - 03:45 PM
In his ubiquitously calm, reasoned, non-ad-hominem, and ruthlessly fact-driven few minutes, Victor Davis Hanson dives into the left's apparent hysteria at the looming shadow of Donald Trump's potential return.
Hanson articulates a sense of deep-rooted fear among Trump's opponents, summed up perfectly as follows:
Hanson argues that there is a perception among Trump's adversaries that he is now more formidable and justified in his anger due to perceived injustices against him:
It's hard to argue that Trump's retribution would be unjustified. As Hanson points out in detail, the Democratic party's strategies and policies - prioritizing ideology over practical governance - are detached from reality and any concept of effectiveness.
He asserts, "nobody in their right mind would do that," referring to a range of policy decisions from border control to economic management.
In a broader reflection on the state of American politics, Hanson portrays a polarized environment where allegiance to party ideology trumps objective assessment of policies:
Rather ominously, Hanson concludes a bleak picture of the current political climate, drawing parallels to authoritarian regimes, suggesting a mentality of 'us versus them,' where belonging to the right political faction offers protection and benefits, while dissent leads to persecution.
Indeed, the political landscape is now a battleground of ideologies, with high stakes for those who choose to engage in it.

In his ubiquitously calm, reasoned, non-ad-hominem, and ruthlessly fact-driven few minutes, Victor Davis Hanson dives into the left's apparent hysteria at the looming shadow of Donald Trump's potential return.
Hanson articulates a sense of deep-rooted fear among Trump's opponents, summed up perfectly as follows:
This vivid imagery sets the stage for a discussion about the intense paranoia and strategic maneuvering in the political arena, particularly among those who view Trump not just as a political rival, but as an existential threat to their vision of America.
Hanson argues that there is a perception among Trump's adversaries that he is now more formidable and justified in his anger due to perceived injustices against him:
They rightly fear that Trump's potential comeback would be fueled not just by political ambition, but by a personal vendetta, which could make him a more unpredictable and determined opponent.
They are likely right! And Hanson posits a political landscape where power dynamics could shift dramatically, leading to aggressive investigations and possibly even retribution against figures in the current administration.

In a broader reflection on the state of American politics, Hanson portrays a polarized environment where allegiance to party ideology trumps objective assessment of policies:
This reinforces the perceived dogmatism in the political process, where decisions are driven more by ideological conformity than by rational deliberation or public interest.
Rather ominously, Hanson concludes a bleak picture of the current political climate, drawing parallels to authoritarian regimes, suggesting a mentality of 'us versus them,' where belonging to the right political faction offers protection and benefits, while dissent leads to persecution.
