TRUMP TOWERS – above his critics.
“I never doubted that Trump would win,” declares Western University’s Associate Professor of Political Science Salim Mansur, who has been accurately following, describing, and predicting the ascent of Donald Trump on Just Right since Trump first appeared on the GOP stage.
“The media establishment cannot be trusted with the truth,” adds John Thompson of the Strategic Intelligence Group, who likewise has been accurately following, describing, and predicting the destruction wrought by post-modernist thinking during his past appearances on Just Right.
Now back on the show together for the first time since the US election, our two powerhouse guests tell it like it is, like it was, and how it likely will be, given the reality of the situation. Tragically, reality runs entirely counter to the narrative offered by the so-called establishment media, which has become the biggest loser in the U.S. presidential election – an election which they should have reported, not attempted to control.
The continuing protests against the Trump presidential victory are not merely to be found on the streets where orchestrated acts of violence, vandalism and destruction are the intellectual and moral hallmarks of the protestors.
The same continuing pattern of destruction can be seen in the pages of our daily newspapers, from the once respectable National Post to the usual array of never-were-respectable newspapers that daily pollute the minds of their readers with poisonous doses of political correctness and collectivist ideologies.
From their continuing and unfounded racist slurs and smears against Trump, to their outrageous and ridiculous literalist projections of what Trump will do during his presidency, the establishment media is clearly demonstrating an inconvenient truth: they simply don’t know what the hell they’re talking about.
Utterly disconnected from reality and committed only to their own agendas and an array of false beliefs, the media is fast becoming the real problem and the real enemy of the people. Consider the following lone rational voice in the letters to the editor section of the London Free Press (a National Post publication), written on November 15 by Gregg LR:
“I find your paper’s post-U.S. election reporting biased, repugnant and distasteful. The problem with this election has been the media. They’ve taken it upon themselves to direct the news, rather than report the news. The U.S. is a democracy, they had an election and the people voted. Show some respect for the office and the results of the vote. Most of the slants to your journalistic reporting are exactly why the people voted the way they did. They’ve had enough. Almost every article you published paints the president-elect with the same biased brush, but yet I read absolutely zero about Hillary. Shame on you.”
Gregg has it Just Right. Few have the courage to express anything approaching rationality, due to the growing culture of fear being created by the establishment politicians and media alike, who work in tandem.
In an attempt to force an artificial and false culture upon both Americans and Canadians, each country’s establishment of the left has resorted to the lowest and crudest methods of intimidation and harassment. Coming from their mouths, the words ‘racism’ ‘sexism’ and the like have become mere utterances of profanity. The use of those words is clear evidence of the inarticulate vacuum in the minds of those who use them.
Most frightening is that this inarticulate vacuum resides in the midst of each nation’s major establishment news media, something we can thank Donald Trump for helping expose. As the leaders of post-modernist progressive ideas, “the media have lost their credibility,” says John Thompson.
Post-modernism is an ideology that has divorced itself from history and rejected permanent values such as “integrity, probity, trust, and honour”, he observes. Instead, we now have artificial and undefinable values like ‘diversity’ and ‘tolerance’ that lie at the heart of the political correctness experience.
The continuing protests and mindless diatribes against Trump are evidence of “an inarticulate rebellion” that John notes is hindered by its utter lack of “a new vision, which is a problem because you can’t set the clock back to something earlier.”
“(Trump’s victory) was an historic win for the ‘sane’ people,” says Salim. “The inner compass that is within us is naturally oriented to the true north – the values that are reflected in the American Constitution, and the declaration of Independence. At the heart of that is that the individual is not a means to anybody’s end. The individual is an end in himself or herself.”
It’s simply not possible to be more Just Right than that.
