Speaking during a rally, last week, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul claimed that
Republicans in New York who do not share her values should "jump on a bus and head down to Florida where you
belong…."

After winning the Democrat nomination for governor in
Florida, Charlie Crist branded supporters of Gov. Ron De Santis
as haters

At a recent rally, Joe Biden claimed that while he doesn’t
"respect these MAGA Republicans."

At a recent fundraiser, Biden claimed the "extreme
MAGA philosophy" is "like semi-fascism."
Charlie Crist endorsed that opinion

Last year, Biden claimed the lifting of mask requirements in Texas
and Mississippi, was "Neanderthal thinking"

This isn’t a new phenomenon.
Back in 2008, Obama claimed some voters ”get bitter, they cling to
guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant
sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”
Obama was implicitly targeting white working-class voters.

The Democrat chronic superiority complex was also on display
during a Democrat fundraiser in 2015 when Hilary claimed half of Trump
supporters belonged to a 'basket of deplorables’. It wasn’t just the content
but also the manner in which it was delivered that shows utter disdain for the
working class.

Establishment Republicans are also condescending
about Trump and his supporters.
During a CNN panel discussion, ‘Republican'
strategist Rick Wilson referred to Trump supporters as the “credulous
boomer rube demo”. Wilson even mimicked a southern accent to lampoon Trump
supporters. Joining in caricaturing Trump supporters was Muslim American
Wajahat Ali. Ali wrote a book about being a target of bigotry, yet there he was
shamelessly displaying his own prejudice. The host Don Lemon who attacks others
for their racism
and homophobia against him
guffawed uncontrollably.

The lampooning of Trump supporters continues in TV dramas, films,
and ‘comedy’ shows.
This should end the narrative that the Democrats possess boundless
compassion, understanding, and empathy.
So what’s happening here?
The Democrats always detested the working class, much before
Trump, they had a similar disdain for George W. Bush supporters. But Bush was
for gratuitous foreign wars, big government, and even amnesty for illegal
aliens. All of which the Democrats ardently supported. They still attacked him
causing his approval numbers to fall in the lower thirties.
Back in November 2016, they received the shock of
their lives when Trump defeated their favorite Hillary Clinton.
Before Trump, power was passed from one party to
another but little changed on the ground. But this time it was different.
In Trump, they saw a real threat to their
permanence in Washington. Trump had pledged to drain the swamp. He made it
perfectly clear in his inaugural speech in January 2017. The speech rattled
D.C., even Republican George W Bush purportedly
referred to it as ‘weird s##t’.

The self-righteous seldom see their own faults.
Hence instead of introspecting and initiating remedial measures, they chose
denial. They convinced themselves that the fault lay in a vast group of
ignoramuses and bigots who followed the Piped Piper of Mar-a-Lago. They used
terms like ‘post truth’ to call Trump voters both gullible and malicious who
subscribe to conspiracy theories.
Trump was their primary target.
They spied on the Trump campaign. They
organized "protest marches". They threatened electoral delegates
to vote for someone other than Trump, despite him winning the states. They
installed saboteurs in Trump’s White House. Despite knowing it was the
public that rejected them, they concocted the Russian collusion hoax to claim
that the elections had been. They baselessly impeached Trump twice. They
continue to persecute Trump and his supporters. All these lies are
propagated by the media.
What incurs their wrath is their multiple
prolonged campaigns have had very little impact on the ground.
Trump continues to be a force to reckon within the
GOP and a monumental impediment to their supremacy. The Democrats
blame Trump voters for all this.
This is the root cause of all their hatred, in
addition to their delusions of superiority.
They are angered further when they see packed
Trump rallies where. Trump seems unaffected by their attempts to destroy him
and relentlessly mocks them and makes them the butt of his jokes
Their unrelenting disdain causes them to
pejoratively refer to Trump-supporting states as 'flyover country'.
If this isn’t bigotry, what is?
The Democrats never tire of telling people how Trump is bigoted
and boorish but never once did Trump insult Democrat voters. He always
confronted corrupt politicians, journalists, and other powerful detractors.
Never did he punch down. In fact, he
supported their Democratic rights, even when they held baseless
protests against him.
The Democrats don’t seem to care to comprehend
Trump and his MAGA movement gained such traction in the first place.
The primary cause was the coastal elites prospered
at the cost of regular working-class Americans. They shipped jobs to foreign
countries to maximize their profits and didn’t care that industrial towns
across the US turned into graveyards. They used climate change to place
punishing regulations on small businesses. Hillary vowed about putting coal
miners and coal companies out of
business.
They frequently opt for cheaper foreign migrant
workers leaving the citizen either with lower wages or unemployed. They focused
on gratuitous foreign wars and rebuilding faraway nations that cost billions of
dollars while citizens suffered. They secured cushy and lucrative jobs for
themselves and their loved ones via favoritism while regular people suffer.
In fact, Obama even claimed America was an
inevitable decline and he was the one to manage it. However, this decline
wasn’t going to impact Obama or his fellow ‘elites’ in any way. They would
continue to ‘rule’ and be wealthy, it was the working class who would struggle.
Those struggles for the working class have
worsened myriad times under Biden. Inflation is at a 40-year high,
there is an uncontrolled influx of migrants, and the drug addiction crisis continues
so does the crime wave. The economic hardships worsened due to lockdowns and
vaccine mandates.
The bond between Trump and his voters was always
strong, but Biden’s misgovernance has made the bond stronger, perhaps
unbreakable.
Since they cannot break the bond and cannot win Trump voters over,
the Democrats are facilitating an uncontrolled influx of illegal immigrants.
They think these illegal immigrants will become the new voter base for the
Democrats and will drown the impact of the Trump voters. They also know that
these poor, unskilled and potentially criminal illegal immigrants will never be
resettled in their gated neighborhoods, hence their lives will never be
impacted.
When the nation is in such as severe crisis, it is the media, the
various institutions, and the opposition who are supposed to hold the corrupt
who are inebriated by power accountable.
Alas, the Democrats run the media and have hijacked the leadership
of institutions and investigative agencies. The opposition i.e. the Republican
leadership is willingly placid because the MAGA movement threatens their
monopoly too.
The MAGA movement may have been launched by Donald Trump from
Trump Tower but it grew because of support from the grassroots.
The future of America is in the hands of the MAGA movement.
