GOOD COLUMNS THIS WEEK
“We’re done here, kids. You know actual human beings who voted for Gretchen Whitmer in Michigan, John Fetterman in Pennsylvania, and Kathy Hochul in New York? These are not people who are conducive to the continued existence of this once-glorious Republic. What happened last night should have been an emphatic correction to the hell this country has been subjected to since Joe Biden was artificially installed in the White House. Instead, we got a bunch of bleating socialist sheep….”
“Keep a weather-eye on the (establishment) Republican Party as soon as the elections are over. Don’t expect them to rush head over heels to represent your views……Trump did what the voters wanted and look what they did to him—and by “they” I mean the Republicans as much as the Democrats: You can serve the people or you can serve the government, but you can’t do both. Guess which side the GOP leadership is on?”

Hinderaker: “It turns out that there are a great many voters who don’t care much about what traditionally have been considered decisive issues: inflation, crime, illegal immigration, lousy schools, etc. Many millions of Democrats, confronted with these facts, didn’t conclude that they should consider voting for someone else. Rather, they seem to have thought, My team is in trouble! All the more reason why I need to support my team……..While Dobbs was plainly right as a matter of constitutional law, Justice Alito and his colleagues probably cost Republicans control of Congress. I thought the Democrats were wasting their money when they spent countless millions over the summer, pounding Republicans on abortion. The conventional wisdom, which I shared, was that the issue would likely help to drive turnout, but wouldn’t win over any undecided or middle of the road voters. But driving turnout was decisive: liberals trooped to the polls, while in many areas Republican turnout was not what it should have been…”

America’s Death Wish: “The truth is that whoever owns the culture in the end owns politics. The complacent assumption of many pundits is that politics revolves around the “economy, stupid.” But what truly animates politics is the culture that shapes voters. Whoever controls that culture usually wins. The American people are electing the pols they deserve, demagogues who mirror the woke prejudices of an increasingly propagandized people. The Left has dominated American culture for decades and thus enjoys a perpetual advantage in our politics.”

Widburg: Ron DeSantis understands that the culture war is a winner
The Establishment Is Trying to Divide and Conquer MAGA: “Billionaire investor Ken Griffin, who has invested heavily in Governor DeSantis, has said he wants to "blunt the vein of populism that has complicated the party's relationship with the corporate world." Think about those words for a second. Griffin and his Establishment Club friends want the American people to stop voting for things in their own best interest and return to a time when they voted for things in the best interest of the small, insular, privileged, corporate few.”
