Why DOES the Left hate Trump so much?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The answer, as usual, can largely be found by analyzing history.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">But first. Do they hate him because the average price of a gallon of gas in his administration was far lower than under Biden? Is it because inflation was low (around 2%) and trending downward? Is it that the USA was energy independent and didn\u2019t need to beg our enemies for oil, deplete our strategic oil reserve or sell it to China? Is it because black and Hispanic unemployment was lower than at any time in history? Is it because Trump forced China into a fairer trade agreement, got a strong trade deal with Japan, and a solid peace in the Middle East?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Are these the reasons (more in a subsequent article) that the Left despises Trump so much?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">These reasons may be symptoms, but don\u2019t touch the main issue. If you ask a liberal why they hate DJT so much, they aren\u2019t going to say, \u201cWell, because gas prices and inflation were manageable, minority unemployment was at record low levels, America was energy independent\u201d etc., etc. Those aren\u2019t the answers you are going to receive. More likely, they might mention something about his \u201cmean, hateful tweets\u201d or maybe opposition to their Green God. Mr. Liberal, are you better off now than you were four years ago? \u201cTrump is a Nazi racist!\u201d Are you paying less for gasoline, groceries, and heating oil? \u201cHe is an insurrectionist and dictator!\u201d I truly doubt any of them will respond, \u201cI hate Trump because we now have to beg Saudi Arabia and Venezuela for oil.\u201d I\u2019ve just a hunch you\u2019ll get a different reply.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">But, we all know the Left\u2019s hatred of Donald Trump is real. It is a visceral, vicious, primeval, vindictive, animal. Unending and never ceasing. To them, he is the worst President the country has ever had. The above accomplishments of Mr. Trump mean absolutely nothing to liberals. Theirs is a total, and blind, unreasoning hatred.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">But, crucially, it isn\u2019t just Mr. Trump they hate. He is simply the current target. If Mr. DeSantis, or some other conservative Republican, gets the nomination in 2024, the hatred will simply be transferred, and perhaps worse. They loathed George W. Bush, they especially despised Ronald Reagan, and you are deplorable. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Most \u201ccommon\u201d Leftists probably can\u2019t tell you why hatred of the Right runs so deeply, and many would probably deny it does. But you and I know better. Most folks don\u2019t understand the historical or ideological reasons why the leadership of the Left is so vindictive toward the Right. There is no one, single, simple explanation, but it starts with the leadership\u2019s arrogance and lust for power, and their inherent belief in their right to have and exercise it. They are elitists, which makes them better than you, and thus, by right, they should rule and you should obey. It isn\u2019t a new feature in human history; the current manifestation spins out of Darwinism and Marxism. But elitism itself isn\u2019t recent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Perhaps the best known (though certainly not the only) example of the same kind of bitter loathing is the rabbinical clique\u2019s attitude toward Jesus. The scribes, Pharisees, and chief priests were the \u201celitists\u201d in Palestine in Jesus\u2019 day. They were the local \u201crulers\u201d of the people, they controlled, they intimidated, they spoke for God, and the common people were expected to submit. They loved their power and the positions it gave them\u2014the \u201cJerusalem Establishment.\u201d Jesus, the outsider, represented a danger to all that. \u201cThe common people heard him gladly.\u201d Abomination! Jesus constantly exposed the \u201cestablishment\u2019s\u201d failures and hypocrisies, and that drove them insane with venomous odium.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Thus, those religious leaders continually and viciously attacked him. They couldn\u2019t answer his arguments, so they resorted to ad hominem assaults and name-calling, incessantly strove to destroy his reputation and belittle him and lower his esteem in the eyes of the people. He had to be removed. But being unsuccessful in their attempts, they sought help. They took him to the Romans (illegally in the middle of the night) and got him executed. For one reason, and one reason only.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Power.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Now, Donald Trump is not Jesus Christ, of course, far from it, but the parallels are intriguing. And the principle of corrupting power remains the same. Trump, more than any Republican since Reagan, is\/was perceived as the greatest menace to the Establishment\u2019s desire for continued dominance over the American people. Whatever Trump likes (America), they hate. His policies were enormously successful and beneficial to the American people, but that is 100%, wholly irrelevant to the Left. The people mean nothing to them, except as slaves who must submit to their masters or be removed. Mao Zedong\u2019s 60-70 million slaughtered Chinese is a testament to this. The same with Stalin and every other Leftist thug. The American Left\u2019s \u201clove\u201d for children is manifested in their willingness to let them be mutilated in the name of a perverted ideology that gives the Democratic Party its slavish devotion in return. Elitists hate Trump because, like Jesus, he exposes them for the hypocrites they are. They spent four years, every day, 24\/7, trying to destroy the man. And, as we are now learning, evoked every shady practice they could concoct to deny him re-election in 2020. And should, for example, DeSantis receive the nomination in 2024, and be perceived as a similar threat (and he will be so perceived), they will shift all of their animosity and venom toward him. It isn\u2019t Trump, per se. It\u2019s that the Left worships power, and like every Torquemada who ever lived, elitists will do all they can to destroy anyone who opposes their insatiable lust for dominance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">They hate you because you stand in the way of the thing they love most.
