What Do Democrats Fear in Donald Trump? Greatness
American Thinker.com ^ | January 18, 2020 | J.B. Shurk

James Carville says Trump is the greatest threat to America since the fall of communism. It is easy to laugh away such a declaration, but I think there is an invaluable truth expressed. Trump is as important in stature as the United States' most formidable military and political opponent of the twentieth century. Trumpism as an ideological force has the mass and acceleration of a Soviet Empire that threatened to conquer the world. Nobody speaks about the Bush Doctrine in such terms. Nobody confuses the Obama Doctrine or the Carter Doctrine as projecting that kind of power. Yet here we are, just three years after the election, and somehow the belittled and mocked hotel owner from Queens has stumbled into creating a movement that matches in strength and potency what took Marx, Lenin, and Stalin over a century to perfect. Consider the fear that Carville and his ilk must harbor about what is to come.

What does he see that makes him tremble so? In a word, greatness.

How could he not? When you see a man being endlessly ridiculed and scorned brush off those insults with ease and smile back, you know something is different. When you watch a 6'3" sack of energy bustling across the stage four or more times a day in suit and tie before tens of thousands of spectators watching his every move, and he seems more rested and comfortable than the press gallery a third his age, you know you haven't seen this before. When his enemies spend years using the combined forces of corporate media, the legal system, and the intelligence agencies to dispose of him one way or another, and the man responds with an off-the-cuff one-liner that shows he could not care less, you know you are dealing with something rare.

The democrats and republicans fear him because he will reveal all their corruption.

He will also prove that if you work hard you can actually accomplish things instead of just talking about it for years.

He makes them ALL look bad.

Founding fathers smile and glad to see someone is standing watch.

Truth and Honesty - unknown to ANY of the Democrats

from AOC to Pelosi to Romney to Schumer to Obama

Love the president, but worried that an intelligent man with energy, courage and foresight is a rarity in this junk age. It’s not a coincidence Trump grew up before the socialist malaise took hold.

Mr. Trump was raised right and got a quality education.

He strikes fear in the dims because he fights back and causes them to reveal their true intentions.

And he is getting judges appointed that will blunt their way to power through the courts.

Said that here sometime ago. Trump is a real New Yorker. Not the stereotypical loudmouth type. The guy is a fighter and a master sand bagger. “Ya wanna play f**k around, we’ll play f**k around. And you’ll lose.’’

It’s amazing to be able to be an observer. He needs to be prayed for every day.

"...hotel owner from Queens has stumbled into creating a movement that matches in strength and potency what took Marx, Lenin, and Stalin over a century to perfect."

Stumbled?

Trump knew EXACTLY what he was doing to achieve the goals he had established!

There was NO stumbling involved...and the author gives Trump no credit for his accomplishments.

Also, Trump is destroying the destroyers (leftard loons), and they fear that.

This is a profound essay; I just added another of the left's tried-and-true, never-fail methods of taking down their opponents since the nuclear-nut Goldwater campaign hit pieces.

How can you NOT believe in a higher power protecting the US, when a good powerful leader like Trump arises at the exact moment in history when he is really needed?

They hate anything and anyone who makes them look like the idiots they are when comparisons are made...like monkeys, they fling their own feces ... because it’s their most potent attribute.

This essay voices my own sense of the left’s lunacy: they are riddled with FEAR. Yeah, they fear Trump; but their deepest fear they consistently describe as the generalized boogeyman, Trump’s supporters — you and me. They fear us beyond reason.
They fear our numbers.
They fear our identity (and mistakenly define it as our privileged whiteness, or our toxic masculinity). Something we never give a thought, obsesses them.
They fear whatever Christianity we might express or represent (”why,these people are going to blow up the world because they are apocalyptic SOBs”).
They fear our sanity.
They fear the fact that it is WE, not they, who are actually scientific-minded.
They fear the fact that we write REAL history.
They fear the loss of the bureaucracy, the courts, the feudal DC mentality.
They fear the defunding of their sacred cows.
They fear the fact that they have no candidates.
They fear the Constitution; and they hate it.
They fear the 2nd Amendment.

So when you see a leftie, an actress, a news anchorette, a hogg, a soccer mom, a college pupil (I didn’t say student) — going off into a fit of brattiness, it is fear in action.

I’m glad this essay nailed the fear factor.
