The Jawdropping Ironies That Will Occur If Donald Trump Wins

As the only person to have beaten Trump, don’t think for a moment should Trump win that Joe and Jill won’t be laughing all the way back to Wilmington given how unceremoniously he was pushed out.

With eleven days to go, I thought it would be fun to write a column highlighting all of the jawdropping ironies that will occur if Donald Trump wins as expected based on the current polling.

First, a Trump win in 2024 would mean that only a man—Joe Biden—could beat him, with both women candidates—Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris—losing to him. The Left and their media sycophants will claim that sexism is to blame for these outcomes, but such a claim simply rings hollow. Why? Because Trump has had more ink thrown at him for being a misogynist and destroyer of abortion rights than any candidate in American history. Heck, a (biased New York City) jury even found him guilty of civil sexual abuse, which follows the Access Hollywood recording from 2016. If voters believed he was an actual misogynist like Bill Clinton or John Kennedy, then even a meaningful percentage of men would not vote for him, thereby making him beatable. 

Trump’s win over Clinton and Harris will be due entirely to both of those politicians being terrible candidates. Clinton was gifted her only political seat in New York due to, ironically, being the wife of a president. Feminism for thee, but not for me. Her unpopularity among Main Street Americans goes back to both her 1992 campaign lie about not being “some kind of Tammy Wynette standing by my man” and her disastrous “leadership” of the failed Clinton government takeover of health care in 1994. Liberals loved her, but no one should have believed that she could appeal to a majority of “deplorable” Americans to secure an Electoral College victory. As for Harris, she literally slept her way to the top in California then only got selected as vice president for Biden in a Faustian affirmative action bargain he made with black leadership to secure the Democrat nomination in 2020. Again, no one should have thought that a left-wing progressive from California could have broad enough appeal to secure an Electoral College win. It wasn’t her gender that hurt Clinton and hurts Harris. It is their politics and lack of merit.

In all seriousness, can’t America do far better when it finally elects its first woman president than two women who only got to where they got because of the men in their lives? Yes, Clinton is wicked smart, but her disdain for half of America didn’t start with Trump. It began way back in Arkansas when Bill dragged her down South so he could begin his climb to power. The Wal-Mart backwater that was Little Rock, Arkansas, probably shocked the Illinois-raised and Wellesley-Yale educated Clinton. But for Bill, there is no Clinton 2016 run. As for Harris, unlike Clinton, all evidence indicates she is just dumb. If the best she could do coming from two P.hD parents and an upper class private school Montreal upbringing is Howard University and the University of California-Hastings Law School via affirmative action, with a bar failure to boot, no one should be shocked that her ability to think on her feet and go beyond drilled-in talking points is de minimus. Without Willie Brown promoting his mistress/girlfriend and Biden’s deal with Jim Clyburn, there is no Harris 2024. Of course America should have elected a woman as president by now, but it will never happen unless a woman with true merit (e.g., Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds, former diplomat Condoleezza Rice, GM CEO Mary Barra) steps up to the plate. 

Next, Trump will likely have defeated both Clinton and Harris because of the knuckleheaded men in their lives. For Clinton, many blame her loss due to Federal Bureau of Investigation Director Jim Comey’s last minute reopening of her classified documents scandal when her top aide’s (Huma Abedin) husband’s (Anthony Weiner) porn-drenched laptop contained classified documents and emails sent to and from Clinton. What is it with Democrats and porn-drenched laptops? Harris can chalk her likely loss up to, among other things, Biden’s lukewarm support for her and, at times, outright undermining of her campaign along with running-mate Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s less-than-manly appeal to men. Harris would have been better off ditching her intellectual insecurities and the progressive Left’s antisemitism and selecting Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro as her running-mate. Remind me: has ANY Minnesota politician EVER done well in presidential elections? Didn’t Hubert Humphrey in 1968 and Walter Mondale in 1984 result in the biggest landslides in modern history? I think both parties should swear to never nominate a candidate from either Minnesota or Massachusetts (Michael Dukakis in 1988, John Kerry in 2004, and Mitt Romney in 2012) ever again, as the success rate post-Kennedy is literally zero-for-five. Harris also can put some blame on her husband, Doug Emhoff, who based on media reports of his conduct towards women just might be a misogynist.

Then, there is the ever-increasing union vote moving rapidly towards Trump despite the best efforts of the Democrats and their Big Labor Boss allies to buy off rank-and-file blue collar workers with promises they know won’t pan out. The Left can say the Green New Deal won’t put them out of work, but electric vehicle mandates already have put them out of work, so they know what the future looks like under Democrats. The stunning non-endorsement by the Teamsters Union married with the even more stunning non-endorsement by the International Association of Fire Fighters were the equivalents of five-alarm political fires being started. Under former IAFF head Harold Schaitberger, the IAFF was literally an extension of the Democrats. I dealt with Schaitberger when I was at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. He was a brassknuckle political fighter who never met a Democrat he didn’t support nor a Republican he didn’t oppose. I thought he was a major league jerk.

Lastly, should Trump win, he will do so with the highest share of minority votes since Richard Nixon in 1960 based on current polling. Even more fascinating, Trump’s likely black support will come against a black-Indian Democrat. That support won’t just be one-dimensional; rather, he is predicted to get a sizable share of black, Hispanic, Asian, Jewish, and Arab votes. Again, this support is despite being labeled a racist for eight years in which the Left and the media knowingly and wrongly propagated the Charlottesville “fine people on both sides” lie. Trump just might usher in a national realignment in which a majority of voters of all races, religions, and genders who lack a college degree (two-thirds of all voters) become solid Republican voters, leaving just highly educated voters (one-third of all voters) for Democrats. Though others take credit for noting this realignment, I predicted it first back in October 2021 in my “Bell Curve Electorate” column.

As Alanis Morrisette sang, "isn’t it ironic" (though her examples were more coincidental than ironic) that the allegedly misogynistic, racist, and anti-union Trump would win two national elections over women, one white and one black, who are married to actual misogynists and who are died-in-the-wool unionists? I personally can’t think of more delicious ironies than for Trump to beat Harris in 2024 due to an increased share of minority and union voters. Don’t think for a moment should Trump win that Biden and his wife, Jill, won’t be laughing all the way back to Wilmington (of course, after he issues Hunter a pardon) given how unceremoniously he was pushed out by Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and other Democrat bigwigs despite being the only person capable of ever-so-barely beating Trump in a rigged election. Ironic indeed.

P.S. In a walk around two Dublin neighborhoods, I counted the political signs for an anecdotal look at the election. I counted eight Harris-Walz signs to just one Trump-Vance sign. What does that mean? I can tell you with certainty what it doesn’t mean: Harris-Walz will NOT win Ohio. I think what it does mean is that, as in past elections, voters don’t like to admit they are Trump voters. I suspect it also means polling is understating Trump’s support as polls did in 2016 and 2020. That could definitely be the case with minorities who could draw unwanted condemnation from friends, neighbors, and family for admitting they support Trump. With Trump Derangement Syndrome, Trump supporters reasonably fear having their house egged if they admit support for Trump. Conversely, I think Left voters think they are so sophisticated and right that they LOVE promoting who they are voting for. You’d think given all the time spent by the Left and the media claiming violence by MAGA voters that these folks would hide their support for Harris in fear, but that just tells you they don’t really believe the MSNBC/CNN hype re MAGA violence.
