Trump Is Getting a Honeymoon, Believe It Or Not

Americans seem relieved that LITERALLY HITLER is coming to Washington with his "WEIRD" sidekick, while Sleepy Joe and Vapid Commiela are on their way out the door.

The big surprise is the kids--the kids are thrilled that Trump is about to return to the White House. Trump's approval rating among 18-29-year-olds is off the charts at 57%, the highest of any group at +19

Wowza. Only the old farts are unhappy, with the 65+ crowd at -3%, which isn't bad at all. 

Needless to say, Trump is more popular than he has ever been, and the country is breathing a genuine sigh of relief that the Biden era is coming to a close. For all the talk of Biden being the most consequential president since FDR or George Washington, perhaps more important to human civilization than Augustus or King David, Americans are happy to see the back of him.

Maybe it would have been better to have kept walking into the Amazon the other day. 

Biden may be "sharp as a tack," but Americans have made it clear that having him as president felt more like sitting on one accidentally. Biden has a -13% approval rating, and Harris a -7.

All the screaming about Trump's Cabinet picks hasn't penetrated yet, but for a mild concern about Matt Gaetz so far. It's hard to guess how that will hold up over time as the left has chosen to focus on attacking Trump's appointments rather than continue their nonstop attacks on LITERALLY HITLER. 

Gaetz, unsurprisingly, is most likely to get damaged by all the concentrated fire from Democrats, partly because Republicans have been wishy-washy and partly because the line of attack is ethical rather than policy-related. Democrats are facing a total collapse in credibility on that front, but sex scandals always sell. 

But sex scandals no longer bite as they once did. Bill Clinton made sure of that, and Trump has survived multiple attempts to destroy his public image using sex-related charges. If Gaetz sticks it out--and he is no shrinking violet--he has a better than 50-50 shot of getting through the process. It's all smears and no evidence so far. And smears are working less and less these days as people are tired of all the accusations without proof. 

Plus there is the "vibe," as the Harris people would say. The Trump vibe is suddenly cool, and people are having fun with it. The Trump dance is everywhere, and it is driving liberals nuts.

The feeling of JOY! is palpable, and that joy is a worldwide repudiation of what the transnational elite has been selling. As the swamp and the transnational elites cry into their glasses of chablis, the rest of the world is breathing a sigh of relief. 

Even some of Trump's nastiest critics look relieved he won. Here's Brad Pitt and George Clooney worried about LITERALLY HITLER. 

It's like a dam has broken, or as Justine Bateman has rightly pointed out, the mob has dispersed and sanity has returned. 

Ten years ago, I would never have imagined in my wildest dreams that Donald Trump would be elected president, suffer the most concentrated political smear campaign in history, and come out smelling like a rose after 2 impeachments and 2 assassination attempts. 

You couldn't script it, man. Nobody could suspend disbelief that much. 

But here we are. Trump is quite popular, a cultural icon, and dancemaster of the world.
