Oprah Winfrey couldn’t help Kamala Harris. Or J-Lo. Or Beyoncé. Or Cardi B. Or the self-described top Democratic American couple, Barack and Michelle Obama.
Or the variety of disconnected celebrities who tried to manipulate the American people from the sanctity of their walled Hollywood homes.
Or $1 billion in donations — the obscene millions and millions of which went to pay the celebrities. That included a reported $1 million to multi-billionaire Oprah to hold a town hall with Harris and $11 million to Beyonce.
Never mind that ordinary people, with nowhere near the disposable income of these celebrities, donated to help Harris win.
Woke politics and the out-of-touch Democratic machine — from the media to pollsters to tired politicians who won’t go away, to academics and the highly manipulated Liberal left — suffered a crushing defeat in the U.S. presidential election this past week.
It wasn’t even close. President-Elect Donald Trump was returned to office for his second term by sweeping all the swing states, the popular vote, a majority in the Senate and the House.
Not two assassination attempts or neverending lawfare could stop Trump.
I suspected, despite the never ending pollsters that claimed it was too close to call, it really wasn’t close.
It was akin to the (Toronto mayor) Rob Ford effect in 2010 when many lean-in voters supported him but were afraid to say so.
I saw the crowds that turned up to Trump’s many rallies. The leftist media also gave it away by being so hysterical in the weeks before the election.
The American people — or at least more than half of them — said they’d had enough of the nonsense perpetuated by a party that has shifted to the radical left with their policies that aim to defund the police, allow transgendered athletes in women’s sports, pander to illegal migrants, ignore safety and sanction profligate spending.
Like Obama before them, Joe Biden and Harris were shamefully weak on global affairs, signaling to the terrorists in Iran that they had carte Blanche to pursue their Jew hatred and their mission of eradicating the Jewish state.
This is perhaps a strong predictor of what’s to come in Canada as we get closer to our own election next year.
CBC will do everything to prop up Justin Trudeau and the Liberal cabal of incompetent cabinet ministers — considering how much money they get.
Perhaps it will be worse with the legacy media, considering they have gotten handouts to keep alive and know Conservative leader Pierre Polievre will end all that.
I suspect Trudeau will continue to try to scare Canadians into comparing Poilievre to Trump and use abortion and racism as a wedge.
The unions will of course chime in.
Lucky for us, we don’t have many late night hosts or comics to attack the Conservatives. Still, I can only surmise that Mary Walsh/Marg Delahunty will be yanked out of retirement to do her anti-Poilievre schtick.
It’s amazing how similar woke politics here in Canada are similar to the United States.
The similarities between the leftist outcry here in Canada and south of the border are also remarkably similar with diehard Trump haters weighing in here – perhaps to gaslight Canadians about what’s to come.
Still nothing can compare to the lunacy in the United States.
Between talk show hosts crying on the air and the not-so-funny comics with Saturday Night Live doing a sophomoric segment on how much they like Trump, the childishness and petulance are astounding.
Nothing can beat the people melting down on TikTok, Gwen Walz (Democratic VP hopeful Tim Walz’s wife) shrieking in Minnesota about not giving up the fight, women wearing blue bracelets (in honour of Kamala) and shaving their heads and telling men who voted for Trump they won’t have sex with them.
Some professors at Ivy League schools like Harvard and U Penn even gave their students the day off and offered milk and cookies to them to cope with Trump’s win.
It is beyond absurd.
They’re not just sore losers.
But these antics show just how much a cross-section of America has been manipulated by the Democratically-aligned media, inept pollsters and politicians into thinking Trump will ruin America as we know it.
They didn’t care as long as Trump won.
It was all a farce. It’s all a charade. All projection.
Now the dust has settled and people are going on with their lives – except for those crazed Democratic women who are still ranting on social media.
I’m going to bet by Inauguration Day, we will see change for the better.
I hope, first and foremost, for peace in the Middle East.
