Trump vs. Not Trump

While not clinically recognized, Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is very real. Much of the American liberal population views the conservative right as evil, it is difficult to ignore the outward displays of mental illness on the left. They no longer focus on their candidate but are completely consumed by their hatred of the opponent. This mindset represents as real of a threat as any actual Democrat candidate and their need for change has been realized. The left is seemingly struggling following a dismal debate showing on July 27th. While talks swirl about a potential replacement’s electability, it doesn’t matter; the question is, who will it be?

Kamala Harris has unproven effectiveness, although the party has rallied behind her tokenism. Gavin Newsom has a track record of personal scandals and policies that have turned California into a haven for crime and degenerates. Gretchen Whitmer appears to be a popular choice but lacks national recognition. Mayor Pete is viewed as a nonstarter after his unsuccessful 2020 run and is shown losing to Trump in recent polls. Michelle has the name, tokenism, and political backing but has continually denied an interest in office. It doesn’t matter who the replacement is; none of them are Trump, and that’s likely enough. 

It’s also highly likely that we will see no change at this time. Publicly, Democrat heavy-hitters are mostly unwavering about their support for Biden. He’s their candidate (wink). Maybe he remains on the ticket to allow a Kamala takeover during the term. Early talks, at left-leaning media outlets, express concern about the timeline for making a change. The nation knows the Biden name and platform for the Presidency. A Biden replacement might not have sufficient time to build their own platform. However, the issue of building a platform won’t matter; they’re still not Trump. Additionally, their stances will consist of the same talking points as every candidate. While historically this could be cause for concern, this isn’t a legitimate issue in this election. 

On the other side, President Trump has been relatively quiet following the debate. This tactic has been commended by nearly all pundits. The wounds inflicted are festering, and moving the attack forward would allow opportunities for missteps. The impression is that there is nothing else to do but wait for the implosion. To continue after Biden would be pointless. On the global stage, we all saw the state, and there is little doubt on either side of the aisle that he is unfit for four more years. The concerning issue is, he is still the president. We have been misled as he has been propped up, and his decline has been kept secret from the world. The man responsible for leading the most powerful country in the world clearly has not been the one doing so. Regardless of the puppet, this is a system they have no intention of changing.

Time will tell how this plays out. The seeming inactivity of the Democrat Party should be alarming to Republicans. They have demonstrated that they will stop at nothing to maintain control. The plan is set, and they know the outcome, while the Republicans and MAGA are prematurely celebrating a victory. The doors to the counting room will remain locked with blinds drawn. Trucks will get lost en route, while floods of unexpected ballots appear. Millions of illegal ballots will be cast. We’ve watched as they’ve written this story through their policies and back-door dealings spanning the last four years, and we are all waiting for the ending. The contender is decided, and the steal is scheduled.
