Supporters absorb former US president’s strategy of inverting accusations against him and turning them on his accuser. To his fans, Trump is the saviour of democracy
Snow was falling, lightly dusting the tables full of “Jesus is my savior, Trump is my president” and “Fight for Trump” and other “Make America great again” regalia. Still, in subzero temperatures, people waited in a long and winding line on Saturday for a chance to see their greatest showman.
Donald Trump, the former US president, was about to hold the biggest campaign rally yet in New Hampshire’s primary elections, where victory would put him within touching distance of the 2024 Republican nomination – and trigger renewed warnings that democracy itself will be on the ballot in November.
But his ardent supporters in Manchester, New Hampshire, saw things differently – 180 degrees differently. In their view it is Joe Biden who acts like an autocrat and Trump who is the saviour of the constitutional republic.
That’s not really the problem. The problem is liberals failure to deliver meaningful change to worker’s lives when they have majorities. The best they can do when they win at the ballot is deliver conservative bills in sheep’s clothing like Obamacare or Wall Street deregulation.
The biggest difference is Dems ability to not run a deficit, but apparently that’s to abstract for voters to care about as it doesn’t materially impact them. Even then what is the point to a balanced budget when it includes military spending like this, a response like this when the free option is stopping an allies from continuing a genocide?
So many bigger issues that “calling out” hypocrisy. Truly the only thing that can stop Trump is a good headline of how Biden “slammed” him.
