Why Do They Hate Him So?
American Greatness ^ | OCTOBER 20, 2019 | Victor Davis Hanson

Posted on 10/21/2019 11:47:39 AM PDT by Hojczyk

But more importantly, Trump’s lidless eyes never sleep. He is a 24/7 force of nature. No controversy is too trivial, too silly, too irrelevant to escape his Twitter commentary. Or rather Trump believes he is an existential war with the media, celebrities, elites of all sorts and the general status quo, or what we might call the American progressive project and its elite coastal architects.

Trump senses that the more he offends them, and the more so they pronounce him a dunce, a nut, a boor, a criminal, an ogre, then all the more they reveal what many had suspected about them but had no hard evidence to substantiate those suspicions. Trump believes his checkered social life is now transparent and serves as a sort of armor when he jousts with the sober and judicious whose pretense of civility is ripped away leaving them hypocritical when they foam, swear, and damn the current president.

Media bias? The hatred for Trump manifests itself in 90 percent negative coverage, according to reputable media watchdogs.

The bipartisan Washington establishment? If an outsider Manhattan wheeler-dealer without military or political experience can at last call an appeased China to account, can avoid a Libyan fiasco, can acknowledge that America is tired of a 18-year slog in Afghanistan when others would not, or believes ISIS thrived as a result of prior arcane restrictive U.S. rules of engagement—and he is proven largely right—

The Left detests Trump for a lot of reasons besides winning the 2016 election and aborting the progressive project. But mostly they hate his guts because he is trying and often succeeding to restore a conservative America at a time when his opponents thought that the mere idea was not just impossible but unhinged.

And that is absolutely unforgivable.

Both the Democrats and RINOs hate him because he is for government of the people, by the people and for the people. A real threat to the do-nothing Congress that have done almost nothing for the people for 30+ years.

One reason they hate him (and there are many) is that he has touched a nerve with a majority of Americans, who are tired of being told what they need to think.

He actually UNDERSTANDS what we think, and CARES about what we think.

Those who hate him are in denial about that reality. They would continue to promote a whacky “0bama” type world.

It’s all about the threat he poses to the life’s work of Bush League Republicans and Democrats.

Fundamentally transforming the country into North Mexico.

We would never vote to subsume the USA to the UN, so they are importing people who will.

We are already 30 million people down that road and they had set it set up for us to have no choice since both parties were on board with flooding the country with fraudulently documented foreigners.
We were not supposed to be able to elect a President who would side with the citizens and the rule of law.
They had us in a box endlessly voting for their amnesty candidates.

Trump has created a disturbance in the fabric of normalcy in the swamp.
Does anyone think the politicians want to live off their salary, alone?
Really, I am surprised he is still alive.
God bless him and continue to keep him from harm.

Because they are so JEALOUS of him and his family. Jealousy is a sickness and these people are sick.

True or not, Democrat voters believe that Democrat politicians will give them money that they don’t have to work for.

All the other reasons are just smokescreens.

Its simple!
He breaks several paradigms, you need:

1. Career politicians,
2. Expensive staff of long time political operators - i.e. the P.R. & ‘political strategy’ firms that line the Beltway & “K” Street,
3. Armies of non-profit “Think Tanks” to guide your politics, governance & international strategy.

All of these are the “industry” of D.C., all wasteful, unproductive sink holes consuming both tax dollars & donors hard earned cash.

A successful Trump governance threatens all those rice bowls.

Two things:

When you expose a narcissist to reality you get a massive emotional, border line psychotic, melt down.

Trump is exposing the hyper narcissists of the DC Political/Media/Business swamp to the reality of their politically corrupt rabid incompetence. The response is the typical border line psychotic melt down from the hyper narcissists. Their PC bubble world is being exposes for the lie it has always been and they cannot handle it.

There are trillions of dollars at stake here. People have gotten fabulously wealthy off the corrupt globalist scheme pushed by DC for the last 30 years. Corrupt Fascists like this are not going to just quietly take the marbles and go home. They are going to fight with everything they can to keep looting the US people. They aren't giving up that rice bowl without a fight.

Workers’ pay has risen to a net per capita gain of $5,000 since Trump took office.

The U.S. energy industry is booming as the world’s largest producer of gas and oil, a fact that has likely saved more lives by rendering the death trap of the oil-rich Middle East increasingly irrelevant to American strategic interests.

By 2020, Trump will have remade the federal judiciary—when at an earlier moment in 2016, it looked as if an Obama-Clinton 16-year regnum would soon ensure a half-century dominance of left-wing activist judges.

Trump entered office with North Korean nuclear rockets allegedly pointed at the West Coast, and with China heralded as the inevitable new global hegemon.

A petulant NATO insidiously refused to meet its promised contributions. ISIS ran amuck.

The border was wide open, and that had resulted in 20 million illegal aliens residing in the United States with de facto exemption from most consequences of violating U.S. laws.

Trump makes the changes the left hates because he's a man of action not a man of cheap little wussy weasel words like the creepy Swamp denizens... Victor Davis Hanson's a national treasure... God Bless him... and God Bless Trump.

“No controversy is too trivial, too silly, too irrelevant to escape his Twitter commentary.”

He needs to appoint judges and sign bills (and write a few veto letters) occasionally.

And smile and wave like he does.

Picking a replacement for Ginsburg should be a priority.
