The Left Gave Us Trump 2.0 - And They're Not Going to Like It

My New York Post column, which should be online tomorrow, opens with this quote from Marc Andreessen:

The last week has totally reset my conception of what's possible, in two wholly different dimensions. 🤯

I go on from there to talk about how Trump is following my earlier advice to “move fast and break things” in spades, and how that’s affecting all sorts of stuff, including general attitudes.

Well, if you follow me here, you probably don’t need to be told how fast Trump is moving. But I have a few other thoughts here that didn’t fit the column. The main point is that the Democrats’ over-the-top rule-breaking, norm-busting attacks on Trump have backfired bigly. I like to use the Tolkien quote, “oft evil will shall evil mar,” and that happened here for sure.

A second consecutive Trump term would have been better, from my perspective, than Biden’s sham administration, obviously. But it certainly would have been better for the Democrats than this second non-consecutive term. Trump spent the past four years not only planning his comeback, but planning what he would do after his comeback.
