Election campaigns are fertile ground for lies to flourish. Politicians are only allowed to lie on the campaign trail because, instead of calling them lies, people often call them “campaign promises.” And, in any case, almost no one pays attention to campaign promises. The average citizen agrees to vote for one party or another while holding their nose, but they also feel little enthusiasm for what we call election propaganda.
And yet, everything has its limits. Now that some time has passed since Trump returned to power, we need to bring back into focus some of the lies Democrats spread through every media outlet. Perhaps the funniest of all went something like this: democracy or Trump. In case there’s anyone on the far left reading this, with their brain colonized by wokeism, the idea was to suggest that the only person capable of guaranteeing democracy was Kamala Harris.
It wasn’t Harris’s only big lie. She also suggested that Trump was quietly working on a plan for authoritarian or dictatorial rule if he won the election. She even hinted that the Republican planned to persecute and imprison opposition political leaders and govern completely outside the bounds of the Constitution.
In short, Harris spent the entire campaign assuring everyone that a Donald Trump victory would mean the apocalypse, the destruction of the United States, and the emergence of a supremacist dictatorship in the world’s most powerful nation. Harris has the mental capacity of a clam — but a clam that’s already been hit with a hammer — and that has led some to suggest that his predictions were not manipulation but pure stupidity, sheer intellectual incapacity.
That, however, is no excuse. Democrats lied again and again during the campaign, and now that time has passed and we can see that none of what they predicted has come true, it’s worth remembering. Generally, the things said during election campaigns stay there, and nobody seems to remember them afterwards, as if they were harmless white lies or socially acceptable falsehoods. I refuse to let it be forgotten that the pack of beasts leading the Democratic Party since its abduction by Obama lied about the gravest, most sacred thing in the United States of America: democracy — that is, freedom — that is, the Constitution.
I know Trump never misses an opportunity to point out that Joe Biden spent his days sleeping through official events and had no idea what he was signing or saying. And that’s fine. But I do miss hearing him remind people that Democrats lied about the end of democracy. As far as I know, there is still a separation of powers, there are still elections, and citizens still vote freely. And, for the moment, it doesn’t seem that Trump is throwing opposition leaders into gas chambers.
There’s something funny about the way the Democratic Party has evolved. It has become a party empty of ideas and stuffed with slogans. Sometimes those slogans are highly effective during election campaigns, but after the election, if they lose, they dissolve like rain into the sea because they have no ideological identity whatsoever beyond the woke catchphrases they repeat like monkeys, along with four or five ideas that seem randomly generated by a monkey at a keyboard with ChatGPT’s help. You know the script: Trump is a dictator, Republicans are fascists, and give peace a chance.
Oh, don’t worry, we will definitely remember!
