Recently I was reminded of something from my time as a kid stationed in West Germany. My German friends loved the World Wrestling Federation, or WWF; and the old (young then) Wrestlemania videos that were put on video back in the 1980’s, that we watched.. I remember ‘Wrestlemania IV,’ when Gorilla Monsoon and Jesse Venta were calling a battle between Ricky ‘The Dragon’ Steamboat and Greg ‘The Hammer’ Valentine; where The Hammer pulled Steamboat off the ropes high into the air, and had The Dragon fall flat onto the ring. Gorilla Monsoon announced that Ricky fell right onto his ‘external occipital protuberance’ (or, the back of the head). “That’ll knock you out into the middle of next week,” said Monsoon. There was no doubt that The Dragon had suffered a massive discombobulation. And it made me think for a second. That’s exactly what’s happening to the Democrats. They are very confused, disconcerted, and overreact to every Trump sentence. Their personal world, or worldview has been upended, and they’re running around; like chickens with their heads cut off.
The Democrats demand that they set the media narrative in getting their so-called ‘truth’ out to the people, and were at the height of their power being during the covid pandemic, until Elon Musk bought X. And now, as the GOP has the White House, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has totally rearranged the media landscape with the addition of ‘new media,’ meaning all those media influencers that I’ve been writing about during the campaign. The new media are those who did not go through the elite schools of journalism, that the established media, or legacy media, the guys who took themselves too seriously, in knowingly misleading a public with misinformation, they lost their as$es. Now, even at the Pentagon, the once permanent desks of legacy media outlets are gone, replaced with temporary spots that rotate in with the new media. The legacy, or Democrat media, or whatever you want to call it, in their aim for power over the American mind, went to school to be taught the ‘Five W’s and H;’ Who? What? When? Where? Why? and How? They were supposed to be instructed to be fair in the practice of their craft. The invention of the fax machine made it all too easy for journalists to just sit around and just wait for the news to come to them. Email made it even worse.
President Donald Trump is moving so fast, that the legacy media has no time to start countering his moves with planned media attacks, like they used to do with Media Matters of America’s daily narratives. And now, tariffs are announced on Mexico and Canada, while intellectuals bubble over, but after two phone calls, the tariffs are postponed. Trump is in control of the all important narratives, and anything can shift on a dime. Recently on Newsmax, an anchor was eating tacos on-air, while listening to a tape of a woman ranting about deported Mexicans not preparing our tacos and enchiladas. And it gets even funnier when you hear Democrats say, ‘Well, who’s going to pick our crops, wash our dishes, cars, mow our yards, clean our houses.’ Does that sound racist? Why yes. It just seems that Democrats want a cheap workforce who will vote for them.
All of this was happening while the Democrats were doubling down on DEI and wokeness with the recent elections of their party hierarchy. David Hogg, 24, the kid from one of those high school shootings in Florida years back, is now the Vice Chair of the Democrat National Committee (DNC). He was complaining of the 20 point swing of young people to the GOP during the 2024 election. All of which was lost under an administration that made it so hard for Mom and Dad’s unable to afford the newest cell phones for their kids. Hogg thinks he is up for the task in getting the kids back, but the landscape has changed. And massively at that. Hogg is not a Pied Piper thinking he can steal back the kids to the Democrats. What does he have to offer? Definitely not cell phones. And anyone would be hard pressed to find out if Hogg has actually worked an honest day in his life. At least President Trump worked at McDonald’s and can drive a garbage truck.
Trump’s militarization of the border has the Democrats running crazy. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth noted the shift of border operations from those conducted in the past. He said, “The Defense Department will support the defense of the territorial integrity of the United States at the Southern Border.” Democrats have always had the confidence that the regular military could never approach the border. But since President Trump’s declaring of a national emergency at the Southern Border, the Pentagon is now involved, and has federally deputized the Texas Army National Guard with arrest powers it previously had not possessed under Biden.
Trump continues with something new everyday, and since the federal government is big enough, there’s always gonna be something new to highlight. Trump and Elon just announced that the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, has shutdown the USAID slush fund, which stopped stupid spending like $1.5MIL to advance DEI in Serbian workplaces, $70K for the production of a DEI musical in Ireland, $47K for a transgender opera in Columbia, and $32K for a transgender comic book in Peru. The savings, once all is finally added up against all spectrums of the government, is going to be massive, and with Musk an expert on business efficiency, making the U.S. Government as efficient as one of his companies, it’s gonna be incredible. Democrat politics is all a big scam, and it’s finally coming to a head. Thank God.
And this week WH Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt tore into Senate minority leader, Chuck Schumer, who is so out of touch with the American people. Schumer, who has the charisma of a dried-up corn cob, spoke on Monday complaining of the tariffs but his speech had little significance, and no one was listening. He held up a pint of Mexican beer, whining about its increased costs, but that was before Trump’s deal with the Mexican president, making Schumer look a fool. Of course, Schumer cares not for the lives that are being saved by preventing dangerous crossings by illegal immigrants, much less for Americans that will be saved by not having illegals kill or injure legal citizens on our streets.
I continue to laugh at friends, you know, those who have multiple degrees, who automatically think they are smarter than you or me. One went off on Trump with his move on Mexican and Canadian tariffs, and by the end of the day, looked discombobulated, with some of his friends (long-time retired educators) chiming in with nonsense just as equal. I wrote a seemingly innocent response, subtle, but effective. “Just a word of advice. It’s best not to immediately overreact to what he (Trump) says. Very many with above average intelligence (falsely giving them hope) wind up with egg on their face, when their thinking processes become commandeered with animal impulses smelling blood; only to be bait and switched by the end of the day. I’d advise you to wait to comment, until you know what he has actually done.” In effect I was saying, ‘Trump got you again.’
It’s amazing how you see these incredibly smart people: doctors, lawyers, teachers, architects, musicians, all professionals, actors, etc. They are people who have to be right in their professions all the time, or they risk outright failure. There is nothing wrong with being right all the time in your job. The problem is, when their opinions run outside their little universes of groupthink (of which they were not trained), that’s when they get into trouble. A Democrat influenced professional will automatically transfer their thought patterns of being right in their profession, to their amateurish opinions of a discipline in which they have no real command of the atmosphere. Hence, they make absolute fools of themselves with their thoughts.
Wow. I think I just solved the formula on how to explain Democrat professionals. The ones with multiple degrees, and the political mind of a first grader. All lacking common sense.
