The Future Does Not Belong to Globalists: The 2024 US Presidential Election
In a stunning turn of events, Donald Trump won the 2024 US Presidential Election in a historic comeback after losing in 2020. The finger-pointing as to how this happened has already begun, as left-wing mainstream media and the Democratic Party try to figure out what went wrong. You don’t need a political science degree from Yale to figure out what happened. As I pointed out in my Merion West article, a cognitively impaired President Biden was shielded from harm by the mainstream media and the Democratic Party. After his disastrous debate performance, President Biden ended his presidential campaign.
The termination of Biden’s campaign was presented as a selfless act by Chuck Schumer and the rest of the Democratic Party, but many saw it for what it was: a soft coup and a scenario with no historical precedent; the presentation to the American people of a political candidate that did not receive a single primary vote. Biden was livid and wanted to continue, but he was forced to yield to Kamala Harris. The media and the Democratic Party thought a concert featuring Beyonce and Bruce Springsteen and a phone call endorsement from former President Barack Obama would be enough to get Kamala Harris elected. In doing so, the Democrats tried to establish a new template in which they offered voters a possible presidential candidate that suited the needs of the military/industrial complex and not the needs of everyday Americans and embarked on a slick media campaign that aspired to create false personas in an attempt to brainwash voters to accept unpopular candidates like Kamala Harris. Had they been successful, primaries and elaborate campaigns in which candidates must make their case to the American people would no longer be necessary.
Fortunately, American voters were aware of the deception, and Harris was summarily rejected and soundly defeated. My friend Miles, one of my Columbia classmates, asserted that the 2024 Presidential Election was “much bigger than Trump.” He argued that the survival of the Western world was at stake. He said that the election raised the question of ” whether Western countries will continue to have sovereignty and put their people first or if governments will sell out to international interests and import millions of illegal aliens from the global south as they wage war with their own people.” I agree wholeheartedly with my classmate’s diagnosis. It seems as if Miles bypassed the mandatory brainwashing class that is part of Columbia University’s Global Core. Miles’ insight shows that the older ways of framing arguments, e.g., liberals vs. conservatives or Republicans vs. Democrats, are no longer sufficient to describe what is happening worldwide. The new political battleground is nationalism vs globalism, and the ascendancy of Donald Trump as President is a repudiation, if not only temporary, of the globalist agenda. Now that I’ve used the term globalist, many who are reading this blog feel I am wearing a tin foil hat as I type. I believe my analysis is very plausible despite the conspiratorial overtones.
Rather than the simplistic view presented by many of my conservative cohorts that asserts that globalism focuses on political universalism, one set of rules and one kind of government for everyone worldwide, and a more socially just world, as world citizens join hands and sing John Lennon’s Imagine in unison, the end goal an inexorable Marxist unfolding, I present a more accurate and nefarious scenario. To understand what is happening, one only needs to look at the alliance between progressive politicians, activist groups like Black Lives Matter (BLM), and corporate America. The record of history is crystal clear that activism, politicians and corporatism don’t mix. As Murray Rothbard pointed out in Egalitarianism and the Elites, the egalitarian program is a “mask for the drive to power of the now ruling left-liberal intellectual, media and political elites.” These elites are the “hitherto unchallenged opinion molding class in society.” When voters realize the true nature of the egalitarian agenda and corporate/activist/political alliance, these elites will be “demystified,” “delegitimated and desanctified. Brexit and the Trump presidency are two examples of pushback to the globalist agenda. The neoconservative New World Order, as exemplified by Kamala Harris and her backers, has nothing to do with imposing socialism and does not have people’s best interests at heart. From their self-professed moral high ground, globalists present globalism as an enlightened worldview adopted by good people and opposed by closed-minded deplorables. In reality, globalists’ true mission is to implement and realize the highest stage of a capitalist economic system, which is imposed from above via economic and military coercion to protect the interests of transnational corporations and not a more socially just world (whatever that means). Fortunately for freedom-loving Americans, Donald John Trump was able to drive a stake through the heart of the Democratic Party’s globalist agenda. In President Trump’s own words:
If you want freedom, take pride in your country. If you want democracy, hold on to your sovereignty. If you want peace, love your nation. Wise leaders always put the good of their own people and their own country first. The future does not belong to globalists. The future belongs to patriots. The future belongs to sovereign and independent nations who protect their citizens, respect their neighbors, and honor the differences that make each country special and unique.
