In the wake of Donald Trump’s stunning victory on November 5th, leftists and other anti-Trumpers are suffering greatly – much to my extreme delight.  You will recall that, the first time Trump ran, we had constant protests from the alleged Republican Never Trumpers, and the loony Left resistance, consisting of nearly the entirety of the Media, and the rank and file of Woke Democrats, who had hijacked the Party.

At first, the resistance considered the idea of a Trump candidacy a joke; such great fun that the Media covered his every speech and rally – just for laughs.  They were happy when he was nominated, because he would be so easy for Hillary to beat.

When Trump actually won in 2016 there was panic.  In the run-up to the inauguration there was a massive Women’s March, with tens of thousands of pink hat wearing marchers, and deep thinkers like Madonna, musing about wanting to blow up the White House.  Actress America Ferrera (who?) was outraged.  She declared “we are here to stay.”

The 2017 inauguration was punctuated by nation-wide riots in big cities, with the hooded bastards of Antifa committing assault, arson, and property destruction.

They managed to banish Trump in 2021, but now, to their horror, he’s baaack!  And yet, the Left is strangely silent.  To date, they haven’t managed to foment even one good riot, in support of – whatever the Hell it is they’re selling.  Even Antifa has disappointed.  When was the last time they even tried to burn down a city?

The other day the Washington Examiner ran an article entitled, Shell-Shocked Democrats Struggle to Mount a Resistance to Trump.  I mean, it’s been three weeks, and not even one good march, sit-in or riot?  What’s going on?

First let’s deal with the semantics.  The Woke fervor clearly has diminished, because I haven’t seen any objections to the title of the Washington Examiner article.  “Shell-Shock” is simply not a proper PC term for the malady affecting so many Leftists.  “Shell-Shock” dates to World War I soldiers’ experiencing of crippling emotional distress, many times as a result of artillery barrages.

As with so many simple terms, “Shell-Shock” was replaced by a less offensive clinical term – Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, or PTSD.  But in the cases of the Trump resistance fighters, their malady is a bit different.  It is PTLSD.  Post Trump Landslide Stress Disorder.  This malady is a combination of the shock of the recent electoral results, coupled with their long-standing bouts of TDS, Trump Derangement Syndrome – the unceasing and unreasonable hatred of all things Trump.

Their TDS is the driving force that compelled the Biden Administration to reverse any and all Trump policies, no matter what the cost, and no matter how foolish.  And it was those Biden policies which made Trump 47 inevitable.

Flood the country with illegal aliens, defund the police, gender reassignment surgery for children, men in women’s sports, crazy Green New Deal programs, and outlandish spending that caused crippling inflation.  Absent these unforced errors, Que Mala Harris might well have won.

In the throes of TDS, the Left embarked on actions which themselves sowed the seeds of the latest Trump victory.  They impeached Trump twice, over nothing.  They painted the January 6th protests as a phony insurrection to tarnish the MAGA brand, they hoped permanently.  They jailed harmless trespassers needlessly.  How else to label as a usurper a president who offered 20,000 troops to prevent any January 6th disruptions?

They ran the phony January 6th Committee for months, filtering out all evidence that conflicted with their wild claims.  Then they had AG Garland appoint the notorious Jack Smith to return bogus indictments against Trump.  Their lawfare included quasi-legal attempts to bankrupt Trump, and to convict him of crimes once Trump announced he was running in 2024.  In the end, they failed.  This week Jack Smith moved to dismiss his cases, and he will resign, to permit the DOJ to bury and destroy embarrassing evidence of his $50 million boondoggle.

And the Left’s failure seems to be too much for these poor benighted creatures to comprehend.  They did all that and they lost anyway, and now they are well and truly lost themselves.  There have been, and there continue to be post mortem examinations.  How could they have lost?  After all, they are, or so they continue to believe, always in the right.  Their cause was just.  And Trump was evil, wasn’t he?

Democrat pundits continue to blame the messaging.  “The message has to change,” they tell us.  Let’s hope they never understand that it wasn’t their message, it was their product that was rejected by the electorate.

And then, just as the enormity of the prospect of Trump 2.0 began to sink in, the Woke fever broke, and outlets that they had relied upon to keep reinforcing their anti-Trump mania have begun to let the truth escape.  Joe Scarborough and his wife Meeka, MSNBC’s early morning purveyors of the “Trump is Hitler” message, surrendered.

MSNBC ratings are in the tank.  The network is being spun off by Comcast, and sold to some new owner.  Joe and Meeka immediately deserted the sinking ship, and went, hats in hand, to capitulate to Donald Trump at Mar a Lago.  This availed them nothing, however, as conservatives will never forgive them, and the Left now views them as traitors.

Then, Corrupt Demented Imbecile Joe Biden, smiling from ear to ear after Que Mala’s defeat, brought Trump, the man he had only recently labelled a fascist threat to democracy, to the White House and told him “welcome back.”

This pushed the already emotionally broken leftists over the edge.  There is a Women’s March scheduled for January 18, 2025, but there’s little enthusiasm for it this time around.  One of the organizers has said, “Marching now is not a good idea.”

A Democrat spokesperson says, although “the outrage is building,” the Left is “disillusioned with activism.”  I’m sure that by January, they will muster up some public discord, but for now the activist fever has broken.  Simply put, Trump has broken them.

The usual so-called celebrity suspects are threatening to leave the country again.  Good riddance.  America Ferrera (see above) has abandoned her 2017 “we are here to stay” declaration, and she already has left.  Former “Meathead” Rob Reiner really has gone over the edge.  After days of online ranting and raving following election day, he decided to check himself into “a facility” to work on his mental well being. (I always told you they were nuts, now there’s proof).

They don’t want to march, and they’re too despondent to riot.  They seem to have negotiated the five stages of grief – denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.  For the celebrities, it’s time they accepted that their opinions and their endorsements are just as irrelevant as they are themselves.  Until that happens, there will be a lot more business for mental “facilities.”

For our part, this Thanksgiving week we’re thankful that we dodged the Que Mala bullet aimed at us by the Left.  Trump is back in command, and as he so aptly predicted, everything Woke has gone to shit.  And as for the demented Rob Reiner, “Medication time!”
