TORCH AND PITCHFORK CROWD ECSTATIC OVER TRUMP CONVICTIONS / "USEFUL IDIOTS" OF THE LEFT

Vol. III | Issue. 237 | June 3, 2024

The criminal prosecutions and recent convictions of Donald Trump have unleashed a terrible force in America. I suppose "unleashed" is inaccurate; let's say that this terrible force has been taken to a new level. The Left, and those truly immersed in the intellectual foundations of the Left—i.e., the Academics, the Woke industrialists, and the Hate-America Politicians—know exactly what they are doing. In that regard, their perversions and goals align perfectly, and they are achieving them. The rest of the Leftist voting lemmings—i.e., those who vote for Democrats—have been hypnotized to believe that the pursuit and criminal prosecution of Donald Trump has been a righteous cause pursued by those who are wedded to the idea that "no man is above the law."

Of course, this is nonsense, but the “Useful Idiots of the Left” (UIL) truly believe it.

The UILS are so ecstatic about the Trump convictions that even those in wheelchairs and on ventilators have somehow found the motivation and energy to engage in cartwheels of jubilation at the prospect of the former President going to prison… Regardless of what the UILS feel about Donald Trump, even if they believe him to be a serial liar and inveterate criminal, they need to believe just one thing that Donald said: "They're not coming after me, they're coming after you! ... I'm just standing in the way."

That's right, folks, it's true… The Donald Trump show trial saga has made clear that our justice system has been corrupted to the point where Stalin would have blushed at the perfection with which the American Left has fully embraced the core principle of the Soviet justice system: "You show me the man, I'll show you the crime."

I need not go into the already hackneyed refrain of "What about Biden?" To me, the fact that the current White House Regime is most certainly one of the most corrupt ever is irrelevant to my analysis. Yes, we all know that we have a corrupt Attorney General who selectively prosecutes the regime's political enemies, investigates PTA parents, and considers them domestic terrorists, etc. But the Trump prosecutions and show trials have taken the American justice system to new and uncharted depths.

In 1974, when Richard Nixon resigned from the presidency after two years of Watergate agony, Nixon's resignation was a welcomed exercise of national extrication from the political upheaval caused by the Watergate scandal. Nixon had millions of passionate haters throughout his entire political career. The Nixon hate clubs had their inception early in his career when he ran against Helen Gahagan Douglas in the 1950 Senate race, smearing Ms. Douglas by calling her the "Pink Lady," hence giving her the scarlet letter of being a "commie pinko." No doubt, Dick used some pretty aggressive tactics and engendered the hatred of the Soviet-loving Left.

That said, when Nixon resigned, on some level the country also resigned from its obsession to see Nixon behind bars. Upon being pardoned by his successor, Gerald Ford, for the most part, America was satisfied that exercising the presidential pardon and public humiliation of the former President was a punishment that fit the crime. Don’t get me wrong, the Left still wanted him behind bars, but the broad Center-Left wanted America to heal and get on with the business of being America.

That is no longer the case.

Five decades later, the Left's takeover of American political and civic culture has created a broad consensus of UILS—i.e., Democrat voters and others—who have come out with their torches and pitchforks, who enthusiastically watch and will gladly participate, through their hearts and disaffected brains, in the destruction of the justice system. Their passion for selective prosecution of political rivals is seen as a wonderful thing as long as it puts Donald Trump behind bars.

The problem with the UILS is that today it’s Donald Trump; tomorrow it will be them as the "liberal parent" writing a letter to their local school in protest of subjecting their child to the trans curriculum or committing any number of political sins considered to be against the political agenda of the America-Hating Left.

Here is my message to the useful idiots of the Left: Your advocacy for the destruction of America's justice system, where Lady Justice is supposed to be blind, will come back to haunt you. Pretty soon, the torches and pitchfork crowd will be coming to visit you in Scarsdale, Beverly Hills, and off into the wild blue yonder. The Show Trials won’t just be dressed in red, they will be dressed in blue too.
