Liberal Americans Hate America First Because They Hate Normal Americans

The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.

Arizona breathlessly awaits the latest treasure unearthed from the social media and YouTube archives of Democrat Senate candidate Krysten Sinema, who called her own state “crazy” and the “meth lab of democracy” before explaining to her 9/11 truther pal that she’s cool with Americans fighting for the Taliban. We eagerly await the video of her with Jane Fonda slowly roasting a bald eagle over a fire made from burning flags at an Antifa picnic.

This innovative Democrat strategy of picking candidates who hate the very people they seek to represent seems counterintuitive, but they keep doing it. Felonia Milhous von Pantsuit – you know, the genius our Fredocon betters instructed us we were morally obligated to vote for because Trump likes hot women – called us “deplorable.” It’s bad enough not bothering campaigning in Wisconsin; it’s outright insane to basically call up Wisconsin and yell, “You suck and I hate you!” before hanging up and pouring yourself yet another goblet of Trader Joe’s house label chardonnay.

But no one has called Democrats sane lately. They’re just finally being honest-ish and saying what they really think. As I explain in my acclaimed new book Militant Normals: How Regular Americans Are Rebelling Against the Elite to Reclaim Our Democracy(It’s been called “One of the books of 2018!” and hailed as “In English!”), the rights, needs, and interests of people like you are at best an annoyance, and they distract the liberal elites from the really important things, like increasing their own wealth and power. They are in it for themselves and had quite the sweet grift going, but you got all uppity and elected Trump and – Oh well I never! – that just won’t do.

You must be ignored, if you are lucky, or crushed, if they get the chance (and if you are stupid enough to give up your guns and ammo).

Oh, how they hate Donald Trump’s America First agenda. Why shouldn’t they? They don’t really consider themselves “Americans,” not like Normal Americans do. We Normals think of our American citizenship as a badge of honor. They consider it something they have to apologize for to Canadian tourists they meet in Barcelona. 

Our liberal elite sees themselves not as citizens of the United States of America but as something better, more enlightened, more moral – “citizens of the world.” But of course, that’s silly. There are no “citizens of the world” because there is no “world.” There is a collection of nation-states, tribes, sects, and other groups inhabiting this giant space rock, and you can be part of one or more of them, but there is no “world.” However, there is a trans-national globalist elite that shares the same stupid values, beliefs, and taboos, and that’s who our useless elite identifies with. Whether it’s some herring-gobbling Nord-dork in Oslo or some Marxist puppetry prof in Pomona or some gender-confused EU functionary in Brussels or some CNN geebo who gets huffy when peeps call mobs “mobs,” the trans-national global elitists share more in common with each other than with their own people. And it is to their fellow elitists, and not us, to whom they are loyal.

They have been trying to inflict the tenets of their secular scripture on us for decades. They all buy into the weird weather religion which requires they sacrifice your money and your sovereignty on the altar of slightly lower temperatures, maybe, in a couple centuries.

They all buy into the notion that Third World foreigners who ignore the immigration laws we citizens passed have more right to be in our countries than we citizens do – and that we owe these intruders a living as well.

They all buy into the notion that free thought and free expression are wonderful concepts as long as people do not abuse them by disagreeing with the trans-national globalist elite.

They all agree that Israel is bad for not letting its people be butchered, that Normal people are racist, and that not just men have penises. And democracy? Well, they are all for it if the Normals vote correctly; if not, then bureaucrats should make the decisions. The key tenet is, of course, that the globalist elite should be firmly in control of people like you.

Except Normals worldwide are rejecting this creepy catechism of weird ideas. The rise of rebel parties in Europe, Brexit, and, of course, the victory of Donald Trump are a reaction to an elite that refuses to put the interests of the people of their own countries ahead of the interests of their trans-national globalist cocktail party pals. Have you seen how they come unglued when they see a MAGA hat? They don’t want America to be great again.

Donald Trump is driving them nuts by actually pursuing American interests first, at the expense of those of the elite. His trade policies are slowly making progress where the alleged free traders (who are not for “free trade;” they are for letting their buddies unilaterally exploit American markets) did nothing for decades but shrug as Normals were thrown out of work. He’s renegotiating unfair deals, and look for his administration to fight anti-American actions by other countries, from notorious wrongs like Chinese tariffs to esoteric issues like unfair Indian data localization laws. He’s ended Europe’s 70-year free lunch by forcing NATO to get off its collective rear-end and start pulling its weight, and he’s asking forbidden questions like, “If Europe’s not worth Europeans fighting for, why is it worth Americans fighting for?”

The elite is freaking out because they are seeing their globalist dreams die. Which is good, because their dreams are a nightmare for Normal Americans.

America doesn’t do apology tours anymore. To execute his campaign of refocusing American diplomacy on pursuing American interests, President Trump has appointed unequivocal pro-US advocates like Nikki Haley to key jobs. Haley was absolutely hated by the elite, which means she was working for us, not them. But the globalist gang is trying to retake the UN Ambassador job now that Haley is leaving, pushing Dina Powell for the gig. Yeah, because no one will stand up to the globalist elites like someone from Goldman Sachs. Instead, we need to take my pal Ric Grenell from Germany, where he has horrified all the right people by pushing American interests, and unleash him on the United Nations. That will teach them. If he can’t, maybe pick my other pal Robert O’Brien, the Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs, who likely had a lot to do with freeing that pastor from Turkey (Have you noticed how under Trump we keep getting hostages back without paying for them?). But the face of America First internationally can’t be some globalist – sorry Dina, but the job of our UN ambassador is to deal the pain, and someone like her is far too likely to worry about stepping on the toes of the same people she was partying with last week.

America First is really about putting Americans first, and when is the last time we saw a Democrat do that? Between foreigners and Americans on trade, they side with the foreigners. Between illegal immigrants and American citizens, they side with the illegals. Between anyone else and us, they always side with anyone else. This November, the people of Arizona, and across the country, need to decide whether they want to turn our government over to people who hate us.
