Nothing Is Sacred - by David Kupelian

Throughout the Trump presidency, the Democratic Party and its propaganda ministry the “mainstream media” have continually dragged Americans through one “existential crisis” after another – every one of them totally fake.

Their end-of-the world “crises” ranged from "Trump treasonously colluded with Russia to steal the 2016 election!" to “Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh is a serial gang rapist!” to "Trump must be impeached immediately because of a phone call!" to "Climate change will kill us all in 12 years – unless you turn the country over to us!"

Meanwhile, real crises – like the out-of-control opioid epidemic and the flooding of America with millions and millions of illegal aliens, including tens of thousands of violent criminals like MS-13 – elicited zero interest from Democrats or the elite media. In fact, their pet policies have promoted these genuine crises.

All this has been unfolding against the backdrop of a phantasmagoric election year in which the president who restored Americans’ economy, military and international respect, and who donates his salary, is demonized as a Hitlerian, xenophobic fascist, while his opponent, the “presumptive Democratic candidate” Joe Biden, is unable to string together two coherent sentences and is, in fact, daily disintegrating mentally before the nation. Every single Democrat in the party’s power hierarchy knows Biden is demented and utterly incapable of leading the nation and the free world, but they pretend otherwise. He is, after all – for the present at least – their one and only pathway to defeating Trump.

It is into this fantastically bizarre, surreal setting that the coronavirus pandemic descended.

Before the pandemic, America was more angrily divided than at any time since the Civil War. Yet in the face of such a formidable and fearsome enemy, many Americans hoped the nation could at last unite as it did during World War II, when people enlisted, volunteered, sacrificed, grew “victory gardens,” and put their differences large and small aside, all for the sake of working together to defend their countrymen.

There were even signs, for a few days anyway, that this might be happening during the present pandemic, with both President Trump and Vice President Pence publicly thanking Nancy Pelosi for collaborating with them late into the night on a massive relief bill.

Then reality struck.

Nothing had changed. The drooling pundits on MSNBC and CNN continued to blame Donald Trump for the pandemic while the New York Times ran the headline, “Let’s Call It Trumpvirus.” Joe Biden condemned the president’s response to the pandemic as a “colossal” failure – while simultaneously releasing his own plan that plagiarized everything Trump was already doing.

Powerful Democratic Congressman James Clyburn verbalized what everyone else in the Democratic Party was thinking when he admitted the government’s response to the coronavirus pandemic represented – and I quote – “an opportunity to restructure things to fit our vision.” Since then, congressional Democrats have labored to add a leftwing “Disneyland ideological wish list” to various multi-trillion-dollar relief bills. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez demanded cash payments for illegal aliens, Nancy Pelosi tried to add abortion funding to a bill intended to help those dispossessed by the pandemic, and the most recent $3 trillion bill – if passed – would include amnesty for massive numbers of illegal aliens in America! And that, as Tucker Carlson pointed out, would mean the end of center-right America, the end of any Republican winning the presidency or other major office in our lifetimes.

For the far left, nothing is sacred. Nothing – except their ascension to power.

Trump expressed optimism when studies showed the anti-malarial drug hydroxychloroquine might be a highly effective therapy for COVID-19 – indeed, many physicians in America who are currently treating COVID-19 patients are taking the drug themselves right now, prophylactically, and also using it successfully on COVID patients. Trump himself recently revealed that he is taking hydroxychloroquine to protect himself from the coronavirus! Yet, Democrats and the elite media condemn the medication – which the FDA has long classified as safe – as dangerous, reckless and unproven. The Democrat governor of Nevada even banned private doctors from giving hydroxychloroquine to COVID-19 patients in his state, even if it could save lives. Why?

If Trump is for it, the Democrats are against it. That’s the rule.

As I said, for the left, nothing is sacred.

Despite the twin massive threats America faces right now – more deaths from coronavirus, and a massive economic disaster rivaling the Great Depression resulting from the unprecedented business shutdown, with all the consequential problems of unemployment, depression, suicide and more – today’s Democratic leaders are unable to act normally and decently. Everything is about power. Everything. Nothing is sacred.
