I have several readers who send me news-related articles on a daily basis. Some of them funny, many of them concerning the shifting political winds and typically all of them bent toward conservatism.
Rarely am I sent something that is alarming, that is, until yesterday. An article from the Conservative Tree House referenced a Washington Post Op-Ed referenced on Twitter/X by Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz with the comment: “They’re obviously green-lighting assassination.”
One may recall Tucker Carlson’s recent interview with Trump, where he casually suggested as much to the former president himself. Reasoning backward from the logical conclusion, Carlson recounted the everything-but-the-kitchen-sink approach the D.C. uni-party had attempted thus far to dismantle and destroy the former president. Here is a quick recap:
- Media and elites mock his chances of beating Hillary Clinton
- Dems announce his impeachment the day he’s elected
- Clinton and Dems claim he stole the election as media supports claim
- Launch national smear campaigns regarding the Russia collusion (which Clinton funded)
- Tie his “very fine people” comment to affinity for white supremacy rally in Charlestown
- Schumer warns intelligence community has “seven ways from Sunday” at taking down Trump
- Riots take over country following George Floyd death – Dems and media support rioters and blame Trump
- House drafts articles of impeachment over Mueller Russia-collusion report
- Riots move to D.C. and envelope White House
- COVID pandemic is launched with Trump subsequently blamed for any of its deaths/mishandling
- 2020 election called “most safe and secure” by media despite record levels of fraud appears to s
- teal it from Trump
- Trump framed for Jan 6th “insurrection” despite video evidence indicating federal planning
- Trump’s Mar-A-Lago residence raided by FBI for documents
- Trump indicted in multiple states for a variety of charges all designed to imprison him
- Attempts to remove Trump’s name from ballots in swing states
As anyone can tell the powers that be in D.C. appear to be willing to do just about anything to keep Donald Trump out of the White House. Even murder, though?
Enter “neo-con” Robert Kagan. Kagan is a foreign policy wonk from the Brookings Institution with the preferred deep state pedigree: Yale, Harvard, and American University degrees; lifetime political mouth-piece; aggressive foreign policy positions; spouse (Victoria Nuland) in the State Department; pro-military industrial complex personality disorder.
Kagan’s piece for the Post is a lengthy screed-like plea to anyone who will listen inside or outside the beltway. Donald Trump is an existential threat to our liberal democracy, and a second Trump presidency will be a dictatorship unlike anything we’ve seen since Stalin, Hitler…Napoleon… or even Julius Caesar.
Despite being a historian who has spent his life in American politics, Kagan seems to think a dictatorship in the U.S. is feasible. He labors at length to make his case, claiming Trump’s ability to wield power over anyone he wishes once enthroned with executive privilege, seemingly unaware of the checks and balances in place to limit as much. The tone of panic is palpable, and the call to action to do “the unthinkable” even at “the cost of career and family” is explicit.
As a concerned citizen, everyone should read this if for no other reason than to see this is the thinking of the career political elite. Kagan’s ability to project onto Trump the very things being done to him – maniacal desire to control, weaponized DOJ, myriad abuses of power, targeting political enemies – indicate a type of fantastical tone-deafness from someone sitting squarely at the bottom of public trust and favorability. Americans trust establishment media and political pundits almost as little as they do terrorists and Marxist school administrators with pedophilic tendencies.
Looking at Kagan’s bio in Wikipedia for context, he also shirks his “neo-con” label, calling himself a “progressive in the most American sense”. Whatever he means by that it comes as no surprise this is how he views himself. He and his wife both favor America’s power to manipulate politics globally and the notion of regime change to that end. Military involvement in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Ukraine are all projects both have worked to endorse whatever the cost to human life. Should we expect anything different from them if they feel threatened at home? The answer clearly is – no, we should not.
Rather than try to understand how the American populace could elect Trump in the first place, Kagan spends his time adding layer after grotesque layer to the image of Trump the insiders need to fear. To them, Trump is an outsider who refuses to acquiesce to establishment ways of running the country. Kagan takes liberties psychoanalyzing Trump and his real motivations, which are always selfish and faux-patriotic. This is projection at its finest. One need only look at Kagan and his ilk’s track record and writings to see through the charade.
It can’t possibly be the American people have had enough of a recalcitrant and even hostile government that over-promises and under-
delivers on the taxpayer’s dime. No. People like Kagan are too busy running from echo chamber to echo-chamber, acquiring confirmation bias for their real problem, which invariably is Trump and the apparent idiots and racists who support him. Never mind, the complaints are from both sides of the aisle at this point and aimed at a uni-party who have gotten us $33 trillion dollars in debt, degraded our education system, flooded our cities with illegal “citizens,” co-opted billions to fight in Ukraine, and gaslight us all the while they cover-up obvious crimes from the Esptein Island-prison suicide sham to the Hunter Biden media scandal and mysterious cocaine in the White House or the magical cleaning of the streets of San Francisco for communist dictator Xi Jiangping.
None of this requires racism to generate vitriol from the people, which is why Trump’s numbers are soaring among blacks, Hispanics, and Asians, let alone trad-white-conservatives. The irony is lost on people like Kagan who can’t fathom the American people are not as stupid as they need them to be, and our support for Donald Trump is not evidence of atavistic racism but adults who are tired of being toyed with by those we literally pay to serve us and our best interests, not theirs.
Kagan writes for a political class that uses its delusion to justify political hit jobs on a daily basis, only now they’re calling for a real hit. Sadly for them we have the internet and enough common sense to see behind the curtain that was the once and powerful Oz of D.C. We’ve had enough, as had Donald Trump, which is why he’s our guy.
To stop him from becoming our next president, you’ll have to kill him, apparently, which seems to be on the table for these swamp creatures. They say so themselves, pictures included.
