Trump Vindicates Meritocracy

In just a few days, Donald Trump will complete the most dramatic political comeback since Napoleon’s escape from Elba. Trump is polling better than ever before, and historically, Trump has overperformed. Trump will probably sweep the swing states, and it is possible that he will win the popular vote as well. 

The prospect of Trump’s return has filled liberal America with incredulous rage. Who can blame them? He has overcome incredible odds on his heroic journey to reclaiming the presidency—surviving four contrived indictments, a bogus conviction, an effort to destroy his iconic real estate legacy, and a relentless blast of slander that began the moment he descended his famous escalator in Trump Tower. As we enter the final days of this campaign, the insults and injuries inflicted on both Trump and his supporters reach ever new lows.

Liberals cannot imagine America would willingly re-elect Trump, a man they believe has evaded accountability for an endless list of horrid crimes. They tend to skirt the details, however, simply asserting that Trump is a “fascist” and a “convicted felon” (convicted of what?) and, perhaps most contrived of all, an “adjudicated rapist.” Liberals repeat these spurious charges endlessly, but they fail to capture anything about Trump that a normal person might call spite. Every effort to do so ends in absurd comparisons. Is he really Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini as the Democrats and their media lackeys tell us?

The left has been calling Trump a fascist for the better part of a decade. Saying that word more often and louder will not lead voters to an epiphany in just a few days. Trump will win the presidency because he has shown America who he really is: not a cartoon but a real human being, and a natural leader. Everyone has seen the famous picture of Trump with his fist raised just moments after being shot. He has endured pressures that few people can understand, and he is still standing. 

The Harris campaign insults the intelligence of voters by calling Trump “exhausted” and a restless threat to “democracy.” Trump, in fact, is an open book and Americans know exactly what they are getting by re-electing him: strong and competent leadership. The left long ago ceased to argue over the results of his first term and moved on instead to fearmongering about his supposed autocratic ambitions in a hypothetical second term. But Trump did not target his enemies last time, and he has even floated a pardon for Hunter Biden when he returns. His enemies would never be so magnanimous.

The left has done everything possible to stop Trump except govern well. They used the Biden-Harris interregnum to push the nation leftward, and at least half of America’s voters hate the results. The left has tried to escape punishment by knocking Trump off the ballot and putting him in jail, but these dirty tactics have not changed the minds of millions of Trump supporters. Americans now look to Trump to clean up the mess that the so-called “adults in the room” created. The country is ready to move on from the hysteric rantings about Jan. 6, which is becoming a footnote of history, along with the entire Obama-Biden legacy of disaster.

For Trump’s remarkable political comeback to end now, with a loss to a non-entity like Kamala Harris would be deeply distressing, if not just absurd. Presumably most voters want change, which Harris does not represent. She has given the people no reason to believe she is competent or capable of putting the country on a better path. Her only hope is that democracies occasionally produce illogical outcomes, and millions of voters in this election will cast their ballots based on lies about Trump and his agenda.

An angry Michelle Obama summarized the deep delusion with which Trump is contending by casting him as a threat to the safety of women. “Your rage does not exist in a vacuum. If we don’t get this election right, your wife, your daughter, your mother, we as women will become collateral damage for your rage.” The former first lady did not bother to justify her brazen assertion that Trump actively seeks to harm women, but it resonates with radicalized women in every age group who believe the unlimited right to an abortion overrides every other public concern. Mrs. Obama further showed how unserious she is by claiming that Harris has been treated less fairly than Trump, who is hands down the most scrutinized human being alive.

The left resorts to these emotive arguments because Trump’s superiority as a candidate is incontestable. In the struggle of the fittest, Trump has been marked as someone who was born to fight—and lead. The results on Tuesday, we may hope, will reflect this truth.
