(Chuck Muth) – Author and investigative journalist Mollie Hemingway should have won a Pulitzer for her 2021 book titled, “Rigged: How the Media, Big Tech, and the Democrats Seized Our Elections.”
In it, she meticulously detailed how the 2020 elections were rigged – not stolen, but rigged – against Donald Trump and Republicans.
She exposed how “an army of corporate-funded left-wing activists” used violent riots, social media censorship, radical changes to election laws, “fake news,” politicized law enforcement, coordinated smears, and impeachment proceedings to take Trump down.
“If you believe things went terribly wrong in the 2020 election,” Hemingway wrote, “well, you’re not crazy, and you’re not alone. But most of all, you’re not wrong.”
Welcome to “Rigged: The Sequel.”
Democrats in and out of the White House have been covering up Biden’s obvious mental incapacity for years. Lied to the American people that he was “sharp as a tack” and could run circles around men half his age.
But with that disastrous debate performance, the jig was up. Suddenly, there was no denying the obvious. All the king’s horses and all the king’s men couldn’t put Joe Biden back together again.
Then there was the unsuccessful – thank God – attempt to assassinate Donald Trump and the wildly successful Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. The writing was on the wall. The chickens had come home to roost.
Within hours, the refrain changed from “Go Joe, go” to “JOE MUST GO!”
And make no mistake. Biden didn’t “selflessly” jump ship of his own free will. If the Mushhead-in-Chief was truly acting in the best interest of America and not the Democrat Party, he’d have resigned from office, not simply quit the campaign.
Truth is, the Democrat power-brokers – led by Obama and Pelosi – gave him the ol’ Leon Klinghoffer treatment. They dumped him overboard in a bloodless coup. But who to replace him with?
The “identity politics” Dems really had no choice. They were stuck with the DEI (Didn’t Earn It) monster Biden himself created by tapping Kamala “Border Czar” Harris as his second banana for the expressed reason that she was a woman and black (not technically accurate).
There was no way they could jettison her after what they did to Biden even though her appeal is arguably worse than his – for different reasons. And whether they like it or not, she’s joined at the hip with his failed policies and administration, especially the illegal immigration issue.
So let the rigging begin!
The hosanas and fawning platitudes began immediately. American Pravda is in full-throated rapture. End Wokeness tweeted a few sickening examples of the media’s faux glee this morning…
- “I got the chills.”
- “I fell in love with her.”
- “A twinkle in her eyes.”
- “Jumping out of my seat.”
- “Kamala is an icon.”
- “Kamala is a phenomenon.”
- “Not voting for Kamala is racist.”
- “Not voting for Kamala is sexist.”
It’s enough to make you barf. But that’s what’s going to be shoved down our throat from now until the Democrat convention in three weeks – and probably beyond.
However, there are storm clouds on the horizon and rocky seas lie ahead.
It wasn’t just Biden who was unpopular. It was his policies. Open border. Rampant crime. Ten-dollar Happy Meals. Pain at the gas pump. Disastrous foreign policies. The Afghanistan debacle. All of the policies Kamala now inherits.
And the only way to shed herself of those failures is to dump on Biden…again. How do you think THAT’S going to go down with “Doctor” Jill, the real power behind the throne?
Reports abound that the Bidenistas are royally pissed at being betrayed and stabbed in the back. And when Kamala starts distancing herself from the Biden-Harris administration, Sleepy Joe’s gonna wake up and raise bloody hell. As will Queen Jill and the court jester, Prince Hunter.
Vengeance is mine, sayeth Lord Biden. And it’ll be a dish best served cold.
Then there’s the problem of Kamala herself. It’s not that people don’t like – let alone trust her – because she’s a woman or identifies as black. They don’t like her because she’s a comical figure. A braying jackass. The perfect embodiment of the party’s mascot.
As political strategist Alex Castellanos noted yesterday…
“Consider Margaret Thatcher, Golda Meir, Giorgia Meloni, et. al. Women presidents and prime ministers are strong, tough leaders because that’s what their jobs require. Margaret Thatcher didn’t cackle or giggle. Kamala Harris does.”
The Border Czar’s obvious phoniness turns people off. Thinking people, that is. It’s why her polling numbers are as bad as Biden’s. Just wait’ll the memes, videos, and social media posts start pouring out of the fire hydrant.
Still, we now have a very different race. And the new rigging machine is churning up in full force. Republicans would be stupid to think this election is a done deal. It’s not.
The difference is, Democrats who rigged the election system in 2020 have since been “outed.” They’ll still try every dirty trick in the book, but they won’t catch the GOP flat-footed this time. This time, Republicans know what to look for.
And while the lame-stream media propaganda machine will still go along with the cover-up, Democrats can no longer depend on the single, most powerful social media platform – Twitter/X – to go along with the conspiracy. So there’s that.
No, this race is no longer a slam dunk. Trump and the GOP truly need to win by a margin that’s too big to rig. So, PLEASE Republicans, for once don’t revert to never blowing an opportunity to blow an opportunity. The fate of the nation is on the line.
And I’ll leave you with these immortal words from Clint Eastwood in The Outlaw Josey Wales…
“Now remember, when things look bad and it looks like you’re not gonna make it, then you gotta get mean. I mean plumb, mad-dog mean. ‘Cause if you lose your head and you give up, then you neither live nor win. That’s just the way it is.”
Yes, it is.
