We live in a world where elite capture by the Chinese Communist Party is a growing national security threat to America. One of their many tells is claiming something is a threat to The Demcoracy™. We hear it from The Left all the time, but how about from Jonah Goldberg?
Goldberg was a reliable defender of Federalism and an opponent of smiley-faced left-wing fascism. That is how it seemed. I mean, I bought the books, and they were great. But when Donald Trump won the nomination of the Republican Party in 2016, one of the “institutions” he exposed as a fraud and water carrier for the progressive project was National Review. Trump just had to be Trump, and they did the rest.
Sure, they still do some good work, but their stable of authors has since gone down the Never Trump rabbit hole, including Goldberg, and while this probably helps his Deep State street cred, no one living outside that circle will be impressed.
“Large donors actually have a strategic view about moderation, who can win, and who can’t. Small donors are really just venting their spleen with their credit card.”
CNN’s Jonah Goldberg: “Large donors actually have a strategic view about moderation, who can win, and who can’t. Small donors are really just venting their spleen with their credit card.”

It’s a direct attack on Trump who, despite having less money than someone like Ron DeSantis, Trump got most of his form small donors. DeSantis got his from the GOP donor class, whom Goldberg informs us, has a strategic view. Of what? The path to globalization and the end of individual liberty? I agree. The monied elite are all-in on the UN, WHO, Digital Currency, social credit world that just happens to be the thing that China wants.
Remember them? Sworn enemy of the United States with whom they admit being at war for decades? Check this out, donor class.
WASHINGTON — The House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party announced last week a significant breakthrough in the CCP’s decades-long “unrestricted warfare” against America. The panel will investigate two companies that at the forefront of Wall Street’s long-running and concerted efforts to help our mortal enemy weaponize U.S. investors’ money against them — and the rest of our country.
Following important testimony recently by former Reagan National Security Council Senior Director for International Economics Roger Robinson, the Committee’s bipartisan leadership declared that: “As a direct result of decisions made by [BlackRock and MSCI], these Americans are now unwittingly funding PRC companies that develop and build weapons for the People’s Liberation Army…
I’m sure Goldberg has thoughts on that as well and thinks it’s all bunk but this guy just told us that.the very thing that makes Democracy .. Democracy, is bad for Democracy.
Let it not be lost on any reader who has donated a portion of your paycheck to a political campaign that, unless you are a member of the top 1% of the 1% who is a billionaire (there are only about 800 such people in the United States), Jonah Goldberg is calling you the “biggest problem for democracy.” … [which] serves as the crystallization of how the ruling class (with CNN as its mouthpiece) views the peasantry it presides over in American “democracy” — which, in fact, is a façade for reasons I have elaborated on elsewhere.
An oligarchy of wealthy elites (can we call them the nobility?) is best suited to manage the democratic process. A way of thinking that leads to what? The end of Democracy actually and the Republic with it.
How far you have fallen, Jonah Goldberg.
