Victor Davis Hanson: "Trump Just Did What Nobody Thought He Could..."

Victor Davis Hanson delivers a scathing analysis of Joe Biden’s farewell claims and the broader implications of the globalist elite’s disdain for democracy and the middle class. In this riveting breakdown, Hanson dismantles Biden’s assertion that the world is calmer under his leadership, highlighting a foreign policy record marred by inaction on China, compromised leadership, and unprecedented threats to national security. From Hunter Biden’s dealings to China’s strategic maneuvers, Hanson exposes the stark contrast between Biden’s rhetoric and reality.

But it doesn’t stop there. Hanson takes a step back to examine the elite class that now dominates Big Tech, media, law, and global finance. He paints a troubling picture of billionaires turned "Platonic guardians," who view themselves as arbiters of how the world should operate. These globalists, he argues, have abandoned any connection to their own nations and middle classes, favoring an internationalist mindset that prioritizes their own wealth and power over democratic values.

What does this mean for the future of democracy? Hanson draws attention to the erosion of equality of opportunity in favor of forced equality of results, a utopian ideal that dismisses dissent and suppresses opposition. From de-platforming sitting presidents to pushing anti-democratic policies, the global elite wield their influence with alarming disregard for national traditions or the struggles of ordinary citizens.

Hanson’s insights also delve into the cultural disdain these elites hold for the middle class—mocking their way of life while romanticizing the distant poor. Their lack of empathy, he argues, makes them not only dangerous but entirely detached from the realities of everyday Americans, Australians, Britons, and others worldwide.

Don’t miss this thought-provoking and critical take on the challenges facing the middle class, national identity, and the very fabric of democracy itself. Hanson’s deep dive into these pressing issues is essential viewing for anyone seeking to understand the forces shaping our world today.
