Judging by their speeches in the final weeks of the campaign, Barack and Michelle Obama are undoubtedly very disappointed in the American people today. once again It fell short of their expectations. . . We vote like many Europeans.
New York Times editors shared their disappointment, with the site's top story for much of Wednesday reading:
“Trump's America”
Victory changes the mindset of the people
This led to the paper's Peter Baker's “News Analysis” (i.e. editorials like this one deploring the people's horribly stupid decisions, including references to Mussolini, but pretending otherwise). Ta.
OK, I get it: Trump's victory may change Baker and the Obamas' perception of America – but that's always been the case. their It is a self-congratulatory fantasy, a cover for their deep contempt for the masses, which is and always has been.
What Americans, including many with a deep aversion to President Trump's personality and theatrics, voted for on Tuesday was a return to the pre-Obama era of social division, discontent, and coercive social engineering. It is the end of the radical dogma that the president created (and which liberals advocated). .
they voted for prosperity for everyone.
Peace through power.
Sound social policies that don't assume that our country is built on prejudice or that you need to be a biologist to tell us what it means to be a woman.
Back in 2008, people thought they would vote to usher in the Obama era.
Voters were then fed up with the seemingly pointless war and appalled by a financial crisis that would have ruined the average citizen, leaving them impoverished.
While many took added joy in voting for our first black president, we weren't looking for a progressive revolution.
But Obama, like a kid born at third base thinking he hit a triple, thought he was a visionary prophet and forced that revolution on us anyway.
Voters responded by making the 2010 midterm elections “tougher.”
Yes, they reelected Obama in 2012, but only because he succeeded in portraying his opponents as enemies of the common people.
Yet somehow he thought those who resisted his vision were vaguely “clinging to guns and religion.”
And he chose a successor who was infinitely arrogant but even worse at hiding it: Hillary “Deplorable” Clinton, who lost to Trump in a huge shock to the elites.
And who has made all sorts of vows to understand Trump voters, only to quickly dump them when given the opportunity to dismiss Trump as a fluke foisted on the nation by a dark Russiagate deal.
America voted for normalcy again in 2020, and it was Joe Biden. provided.
Well, except for Biden. It was delivered The opposite – unnecessarily open borders. Huge and brazen political spending in lieu of real strategies for economic growth. America's war on energy. Awakening of Gobgobu's Claptrap. A continued foreign policy of appeasement only emboldened and rewarded the enemy.
Then, when Obama installed Kamala Harris as the latest face of the revolution, Americans of all colors, ages, and genders finally took their time.
Voters finally saw through Trump's industrialized demonization, and Trump policy They are much closer to American ideals and what they consider normal.
Americans' feelings about this country never changed.
Let's all pray that the self-proclaimed good people in the mansions of Martha's Vineyard will finally realize that this was the death of “Obamaism” when this latest shock fully sinks in.
