High Noon in America: Will You Fight or Hide?

It is high noon in America, and today one champion stands between us and socialism. We can't let our champion down.

By coincidence, I was watching High Noon this week, just as polls showed President Trump trailing Biden by 9 to10 points nationally. Like the hero of High Noon, the president sometimes seems to be fighting alone. It's high noon in America, and after the election, only one man will be left standing.

For anyone who hasn't seen it, High Noon is the story of Will Kane (Gary Cooper) and his bride, Amy (Grace Kelly), who are married just as the vicious Miller gang returns to town seeking revenge against Kane for sending their leader to prison. Though he is free to leave town, Marshall Kane decides that he must remain until the next day, when the new marshal takes over. A devout Quaker, Amy declares that she will leave her husband if he decides to fight.

Though painful, Will Kane's position is not impossible. His path is clear because he lives by an unwavering code of values. He remains in town to defend his fellow citizens, even the many who don't appreciate his efforts. When everyone abandons him, he faces overwhelming odds — four to one — with only the help of his wife, who returns without his knowledge and saves his life in the shootout.

President Trump faces the same overwhelming odds. The political establishment, the Deep State, practically the entire media, academe, unions, minorities, environmentalists, foreign nations, and special interests of all stripes have piled on, outraged that the president would actually stand up for ordinary Americans. They thought Trump's promise to "drain the swamp".
