Another great, thought-provoking read by a deep thinker with wonderful skills at clarity of expressing those deep thoughts!

What I come across on social media so often and experience in my own world is that most people in every day life on “the other side” are not so devoted to Biden as they are still very stuck in hating Trump - a phenomenon directly related to the msm lies that were repeated over and over and over for 4+ years. The “Red Sermon” wasn’t so much an attack against Trump (everybody’s used to that by now) but an attack against the “other side’s” family members, friends, coworkers, neighbors and the attack doesn’t jive with reality in many peoples social spheres.

There will come a time when many people who thought they favored Biden will be too embarrassed to ever admit it!

When you’ve been awake from the beginning the Great Awakening has often seemed painfully slow…but when it has been fully achieved it will have been worth it.

I applied your theory here to RINOS who try to suggest “Trumpism without Trump” and needlessly critique President Trump’s style and demeanor as if that is such an eyesore.

I feel angry when they do this and not because they do not admire President Trump but because they are trying to disengage us from our paradigm - so we feel unmoored, weak and vulnerable. This is the opposite of Trump’s and our approach.

I think they are like enemy agents who prefer the status quo of their perch among loser Republicans. There to lose graciously and keep their sinecures.

I am sad to say several of Victor Davis Hanson’s articles fall into this category.

It is condescending ‘meantweet-a-phobia.’ But it isn't sincere. It is insidious.

Once I read your ideas above it provided some clarity to me as to why this makes me feel anger rather than just disagreement.

Thank you. Brilliant writing.
