To the left, America’s mounting disasters are just bumps in the road
NY Post ^ | 10/24/2021 | Victor Davis Hanson

Sheer chaos and anarchy on the border?

Afghanistan — the most humiliating defeat in recent US military history?

A labor-starved supply chain in shambles and holiday shelves emptying out?

The worst inflation in 30 years that seems soon ready to match Carter-era levels?

Gas hitting $5 a gallon with winter heating fuels soaring?

Free-for-all looting in the major cities without consequences?

Joe Biden’s policies and Biden himself diving in the polls?

Never in recent American history has any administration birthed such disasters in its first nine months. Yet most Americans are arguing not over the sheer chaos and disasters of the Biden administration, but rather how could such sheer pre-civilizational calamity occur in modern America?

Were these disasters a result of historic incompetency? Or mean-spirited nihilism? Or a deliberate effort to create the necessary turbulence to birth a new American revolution? Or a bit of all three?

Start instead with the idea that what most Americans see as sheer ruin is not what the left-wing puppeteers, who are pulling the strings of the Biden marionette, see.

Our catastrophes are their minor glitches. For them bad polling is mostly a public-relations problem of an occasionally uncooperative media. Otherwise, a few broken eggs are always necessary to create the perfect socialist omelet.

The left now controlling Washington believes that the US border is a mere construct. Every impoverished person has a birthright to cross into America illegally. The 2 million who are scheduled to enter this fiscal year alone is a wonderful, if occasionally sloppy, event.

Our border calamity is their celebration of humanity and a long-overdue recalibration of ossified American demography, one that will properly warp the Electoral College to provide the necessary election result.

I hope they do, but I am not confident in that. I just hope we aren’t too far gone, to right their evil doings.

Bumps in the road, to the implementation of full blown communism? Maybe so, but communism is still their goal.

Part of their catechism is “You can’t make an omelette without breaking eggs”.

Allegedly attributed the Stalin, but more probably originated by his NYT toady Walter Duranty.

Didn’t Steven Chu, Obama’s energy secretary, long ago brag that when we hit $8 to $10 a gallon, we’d approach European levels of proper fuel usage?

I’m not sure I believe this opinion at all. I don’t think they are considered ‘bumps in the road’ but are instead intentional actions to make people demand more big government solutions.

Was this calulated for average American distances?

VDH is wrong on this. They are desirable outcomes. They win either way. If they destroy America, they win. If somehow the system is saved, they win cuz they are in office.

America’s mounting disasters are massive sink holes.

Fact check completed.
