Men and women living out those ideas made America the greatest country in the history of the world. Anything that went against those notions was considered an aberration in politics that should be guarded against.<\/p>\n<p>However, over the past few decades, the Left has trashed those principles. Instead, generations have been taught that the U.S. is an evil nation with irredeemable sins. The institutions that created America and transformed the world \u2014 the argument goes \u2014 need to be completely dismantled and remade in a collectivist vision for a better future.<\/p>\n<p>That message has received very little pushback in the public sphere. It has been hard to find anybody expressing those values concisely and effectively.<\/p>\n<p>Yet on Tuesday, the re-elected chief executive laid out his successes in the Sunshine State and guiding belief system in a complete rejection of the status quo.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe reject this woke ideology,\u201d DeSantis <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/freedom-lives-here-ron-desantis-sworn-in-for-second-term-as-florida-governor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a>, speaking on behalf of Floridians\u2019 Opposition to leftism runs rampant \u201cWe seek normalcy, not philosophical lunacy! We will not allow reality, facts, and truth to become optional. We will never surrender to the woke mob.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What does this mean? \u201cwoke\u201d ideology entail?<\/p>\n<p>As the potential 2024 presidential candidate put it, it\u2019s one that \u201crejects merit and achievement\u201d When advocating\u00a0 \u201cidentity essentialism.\u201d It supports criminals while attacking families. It expands the government, while ignoring individual rights. It robs children of their innocence, while shielding them from the guilt. \u201centrenched bureaucrats in D.C., jet-setters in Davos, and corporations wielding public power\u201d Who want to take control of their lives.<\/p>\n<p>In other words \u2014 it is a complete abandonment of the Judeo-Christian principles laid out by our Founding Fathers and the belief individual responsibility and limited government.<\/p>\n<p>Promoters of said \u201cphilosophical lunacy\u201d These aren&#8217;t just for Democrats, but they should be noted. Many other established Republicans are happy to follow suit.<\/p>\n<p>So, if that is what the Left in all its forms stands for, then what does DeSantis\u2019 brand believe should be put forth?<\/p>\n<p>He really believes that Americans should be proud of their country, work together to improve the community, have a government that protects their citizens, and have a nation that supports its founding ideals.<\/p>\n<p>More than anything, he wants every person to believe that he or she is capable of doing the right thing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDecline is a choice. Success is attainable. And freedom is worth fighting for,\u201d The governor made the statement on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>He said nothing new. He spoke a timeless message that can be applied to any American in any situation \u2014 not just politics.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis also emphasized his states\u2019 reliance on God, in the great tradition of American history. He promised to fight back against a federal government that has let America\u2019s borders become porous and enacted energy policies that make us dependent on others.<\/p>\n<p>More than that, however, the governor also stressed that \u201cresults matter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe lead not by mere words, but by deeds,\u201d He said so. \u201cFour years ago, we promised to pursue a bold agenda. We did just that and we have produced results.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This is an all-American message. In the U.S., we don\u2019t play to have fun, we play to win; well done is better than well said; rely on yourself and your family, not welfare; all men are created equal; having responsibility is a good thing; faith matters above anything else.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis was even willing to describe it as \u201cnormalcy\u201d He shows that he is willing and able to fight the Left.<\/p>\n<p>Consider that for most of our history, it hasn\u2019t been the goal to view others in terms of racial or class groups, but to view each other as individuals. That hasn\u2019t always happened in practice, but in theory, that was the objective as laid out in the Declaration of Independence. It isn\u2019t in our heritage to depend on the government. All of this is now at risk with the pervasiveness of radical gender theory, Critical Race Theory, and other forms. The Left wants it all. \u201cfundamentally transform\u201d America and increase government control while dividing us by race, gender, or class.<\/p>\n<p>The worldview that is being pushed now by the Democratic Party isn\u2019t \u201cnormal\u201d America<\/p>\n<p>Many Republicans are afraid to project a positive vision for the future, and this is because of a number of reasons.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis is one of the best communicators of what our nation can look like \u2014 if only we have politicians willing to<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just be normal.\u00a0 Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis\u2018 vision of the world is so normal that he is now considered an exceptional individual in contemporary politics by comparison to the vast majority of politicians who are disconnected from reality.
