I have not typically agreed with things that former Vice President Al Gore has said, but I finally found one thing I can agree with him on. Appearing on Late Night with Bennett Myers, Gore said that it was a dangerous time in America. This is something I can certainly agree with, but for totally different reasons.
In his interview, Gore said that Trump is conducting an all out radical assault on societal norms in the United States. In a recent article, I mentioned how Trump is doing exactly what he was elected to do. He said he was going to do many things, which he has done. Yet, Gore accuses Trump of attacking the norm.
Well if by that norm he means political corruption then yes, Gore is correct. But this is not what Gore indicated from his statements. He accuses Trump of attacking the societal norms. You know, those special interest pandering norms that the left is focused on. Those are the ones that matter to real Americans anyway right?
Apparently, Gore has forgotten his end of world predictions from back in 2006 when he said that we only had 10 years left to address climate change. He followed up on his bold prediction of polar ice caps melting by purchasing an $8 million beach house that would have been under water had his prediction been right. Yet, here we are, 13 years later with even longer to address the issues thanks to AOC and the Green New Deal! I am so glad they are keeping up with this for those of us who have to work real jobs.
Gore and the rest of the Democrats are only focusing on one thing, eliminating Trump. I believe if Trump came out in support of any Democratic platform item, Democrats would oppose it. They simply do not understand how to connect with real Americans about the issues. They do a great job connecting to pandering interests, however.
These societal norms that Trump is supposedly attacking are truly the career politician strong holds that we have seen. Americans are tired of inaction by politicians, and specifically Democrats. Just look at the numbers released during the debate. The DNC released fundraising numbers during the debate when none of their audience was paying attention.
The data released shows that they are struggling to raise money and are in debt. Great timing to release this during the debate. The candidates are finding an easier time raising money from their pandering interest groups than the DNC is from their donor base. Democrats are not excited about their candidate or party.
Meanwhile, Republicans continue to raise money easily thanks to the impeachment inquiry. So while the media may paint the picture that the race is favoring Democrats, the money tells another story. Republicans are in a great position heading into the 2020 election season.
While Democrats will impeach Trump in the House, there has been no evidence produced. Trump still has strong Republican support and with a few solid economic wins in the next year, should easily win reelection. Even without strong economic wins, Trump remains positioned well due to the extreme left views of Democrats.
So yes, I agree with Al Gore. It’s a dangerous time in America. It’s dangerous to think about extreme radical socialists and communists taking over our government. It’s dangerous to think about any more Democratic leadership in our Congress. It’s dangerous to think about an America without a President Trump in 2021.
