This may be the estrogen vs. testosterone election when it comes to competing messages and voting blocs, but the voters are divided between those who want technocrats to run the world and those who still believe that our government should represent the will of the voters.

Lots of issues are driving people to the polls–the economy and immigration on one side, abortion and “democracy” on the other.  

But except for abortion–an issue with absolutely unique power to mobilize some people–the election is really a referendum about whether experts should run things or people. 

“Experts” and the “transnational elite,” for my purposes, amount to the same thing. These are the people who create the Narrative™ that can convince people that masks work, that schools should be close, that experimental vaccines should be universally mandated, and that bureaucrats should run the world. 

They are the people who will look a mother who can’t afford groceries or pay her rent in the eye and insist that the economy is excellent. They tell us the border is secure, that crime is down, and that the evidence before our eyes is wrong because they have statistics that we should believe instead of experience. 

Those “experts” hate us, because we don’t believe them.

Dissent is not allowed, and if you think for yourself you are a “bitter clinger,” or a Deplorable, or a “fascist,” a Nazi, or Garbage, or anti-American. 

Americans should comply. We should watch Morning Joe, The View, and listen to moronic celebrities because they have been given the talking points from experts. 

They lie. They commit hoaxes. They engage in brainwashing campaigns. They overtax us, ban things we want, force us to buy things we don’t, tell us not to eat meat, that truth is “misinformation,” and weaponize our credulous neighbors against us. 

The irony is that the left hates liberal Americans almost as much as they hate us. They pat them on the head, work them up, applaud the temper tantrums, and value their votes. But you don’t hoax your friends. You don’t dump illegal aliens in their neighborhoods, You don’t deny their children a chance at a decent education. If the head of the Chicago Teachers Union sends her kid to a private school, she has contempt for the people she claims to love. 

Many liberals have been worked up into a frenzy over Trump just as they were over COVID. They trust, for some reason, the decency and veracity of the people who are in positions of influence. They cannot believe that their “experts” or “elite” or “leaders”–whatever you want to call them–would perpetrate hoaxes. So they live in a bizarro world where Trump will send Seal Team Six out to kill them.

We can and should blame the particular people for their bad actions, but ultimately, their sin is trusting the people who lie to them. They became terrified of COVID and did what they were told. They believe Trump is Hitler and are doing what they think is necessary to stop him. They have been made insane. 

The root of the problem is that the transnational elite who run things and control the media hate you and me. They say it often enough, although they refrain from admitting that they hate all the proles. Trust me, academics, novelists, bureaucrats, Fortune 500 CEOs, and all those nonprofit leaders aren’t staying up at night worried about the plight of ordinary Americans. 

They are spending too much time funding the United Nations, building DEI bureaucracies and censorship organizations, and laughing all the way to the bank as we suffer.

Watch any discussion at a World Economic Forum conference. The world’s leaders and businessmen gather to discuss what they plan to do with us and make clear their contempt for us. It’s not even hidden, just at the attacks on us as “garbage” are right out there in the open. 

The real question in this election is simple: do you want leaders who hate you or leaders fighting for you?
