The NYT sure does hate "populists," who believe in government of, by and for the people.
The opposite of populism is elitism, the belief that the governed are not qualified to choose political leaders from among their ranks and that the only legitimate political leaders come from an entitled, hereditary, criminal political class.
NYT sounds very butthurt.
We must save “Our Democracy” by rejecting populism! We must adhere to the beliefs of the Elites and cast aside the wishes of the governed! Only by doing exactly as we are told can we escape the horrors of a totalitarian regime.
The whole thing is available at the Conservative Tree House. He didn’t pull any punches. Schumers face, right next to the podium looked like the knocker on Scrooge’s door. Melania sat next to Trump , about three seats to his left as he spoke.
It got awkward because his opponent, Harris, was not there so Trump stood there by himself.
😂😂😂😂. Boy howdee! Again, the nyt is all TDS all the time these days. Like I said, 11/6/2024 nyt announcement of Trump’s win will be page 3, #10 font, single column. Hey time nyt-———🖕
There he stood, standing there, not sitting down, but on his feet, in a verticle position. Did we mention standing? The horror of it all.
Awkward for whom? He was killing it.
The elites have to give way to we the people. Trump is the face of it but he’s not the only one
It was very awkward in there. They were staring holes into Trump. RFK Jr was squirming
Schumer and Bloomberg were posing for gargoyle sculptors
Jim gaffigan was like Johnny Carson on a random Tuesday night ‘he well that one don’t work either’
Trump was awkward. Not so much that he’ll dream of giving up this fight, but enough that most men of inferior character and courage sure would have
The NYT should really get a grip on that fact
Trump is coming back. With backing and in full realization of whom he is up against in the renaissance of this country and the west
Onward
The money quotes of the article...
‘At least half the dais looked profoundly depressed when he said, “I’m going to win.”
But there is nothing they — in all their money and their power and their media mastery — can do about it.’
The NYT seems to be already inching toward the “acceptance” stage of grief.
More gobbilty gook “journalism”.
I watched the whole thing. Trump was hilarious, very much at ease, and got a standing ovation.
The only thing “awkward” was Harris’ cringe video she mailed in and which totally flopped.
Spin spin spin NYT. No one believes your lies any more. It’s too easy to check you and see you are full of BS.
“The opposite of populism is elitism, ...”
Many, (most?), on the left not so secretly desire a monarchy. They want to worship their leader, idolize that person, and be free from having to make decisions because the monarch will do that for them.
populist revenge movement?
really?
how exactly do you take revenge for 60m+ dead American kids?
Trump was brilliant at the dinner and was delivering jokes so effectively that they kept sneaking up on you, I’ve never seen him this humorous before, it was professional level.
Here is his entire portion.

Funny.
Her New York Times DID NOT seem to feel it was awkward when their Chosen One “chose” not to even show up for a “unrehearsed” personal speech to a live audience.
Instead, “she” ran a scripted comedy video.
He was even golfing buddies with Bill Clinton.
That is why their hate is so infused with hysteria.
Does the NYT ever read the crap they publish??
Blumberg sure looked happy! /sarc
Contentiousness at the Al Smith Dinner is nothing new. Here’s a blurb from wikipedia:
Since 1980, this custom has been affected by friction between the Democratic Party and the Catholic Church over abortion. During the 1980 dinner, Democratic incumbent Jimmy Carter was booed. In 1984, Ronald Reagan spoke, but his opponent, Walter Mondale, opted out, saying he needed time to prepare for an upcoming presidential debate. Amy Sullivan suggests that Mondale’s decision was motivated by “tensions between the Catholic Church and the Democratic Party.”
