Perceptions are the only things that matters in this election. The MSM has too much control over the majority.
The majority of people are not capable of “rational” thinking period because they believe in the Lies repeated over and over in the MSM. We are in a desperate situation where the insane (and psychopaths) literally control ALL three branches of our government and the Press. Thomas Sowell’s idea of politics can never work in today’s corrupt cartel controlled system.
The alpha male persona is what is going to push Trump over the top, because for several generations the emasculation of our boys to create dependent, doped-up sissies—puerile narcissists— incapable of long-term commitment or risk-taking is making too many women PUKE——and the masculine males are pushed to the point of revolution- frustrated as their handcuffs are locked and keys thrown away: humiliation 24/7 in this culture of dependent servitude and hate and Marxist grouping to destroy Christian worldview and demoralize them and destroy their children.
The deliberate vilification of white males and Christianity is destroying all our Traditions, destroying unity, and forcing a moral relativism of chaos and nihilism, and when we look at the rot in culture—as bad as the homoeroticism of the vulgar Weimar Republic——we can understand that without Virtue, civil society will collapse.
Perfection in Trump is not needed-—but his bully club is— to destroy the cartel who can bribe and buy every single judge and bribe them like the Justice Roberts-—and we allow such Marxists as Kagan to throw out Rule of Law for Rule of Oligarchy. Will he put Marxists on the court or a Clarence Thomas? I think the latter and he would be nasty enough to control the vilification of PC culture, since he understands it so well.
Sowell is correct about the principles and virtue needed in leaders-—but with a system that is so completely corrupted, that will never work today. We need a Napoleon for a while, and then the Cruz, and I think that his love for his children and future grandchildren will maybe influence his choices for the “old” system of “Rule of Law”. Hopefully, he will put people like Cruz in as AG and Rand Paul in charge of the IRS. He is not a dumb man and he seems to really love his children (the future).
This election is between Life and Death of this country. Sowell is absolutely correct on many, many things, one of the wisest people I have read, but I hope to God he underestimates Trump. (He deserves to be wrong a few times in his incredible long life).
Really like your take on this and I’m very close to you. Trump may have flaws he is the right man at the right time. I hope he can pull it off. Can one of the other candidates do what will be necessary? We will see.
A thoughtful and well-reasoned analysis. I understand the instinct to look for a strong-man/alpha-male like Trump/Napoleon in desperate times. But looking back at the French Revolution, 1789-1799 (including The Terror of 1783-84)and Napoleon's dictatorship with 10-15 years of near-constant warfare, makes many of us very nervous about DJT. I think that is the historical caution Dr. Sowell and Dr. Victor Davis Hanson write about.

Moved to the point tears. Here we are, courting leaders enabled by generations of vane, shallow, lost souls, determined in their beliefs, tragic in their consequences. So few who see. We truly have little time left, it may already be to late. Hope.
