"We've Never Witnessed Anything This Unique... | Victor Davis Hanson"
Victor Davis Hanson delves into the unique resilience and relentless energy that define Donald Trump’s enduring appeal. Hanson explores how Trump’s defiance in the face of unprecedented challenges set him apart, likening his vigor to a stark contrast against Joe Biden’s perceived incoherence and inactivity. From marathon press conferences to record-breaking cabinet meetings, Hanson paints a picture of a leader who outworked and outlasted his critics.

But Hanson’s analysis goes deeper, suggesting that Trump’s comeback is fueled not just by his record but by a stark comparison to the failures of the Biden administration. The border crisis, economic mismanagement, and radical left-wing policies of the past four years, he argues, have served as a painful reminder of the consequences of unchecked progressive governance.

Hanson also addresses Trump’s shifting approach to personnel, emphasizing the importance of loyalty and competence in his upcoming administration. He contrasts Trump’s current strategy with his earlier years, during which he was often undermined by appointees who were more concerned with their agendas than advancing his. From Cash Patel to Tulsi Gabbard, Hanson highlights the type of allies Trump now seeks to rebuild trust and ensure effectiveness.

Finally, Hanson doesn’t hold back on his criticism of the Never Trumpers, establishment Republicans, and figures like Liz Cheney, accusing them of being driven to irrelevance by their obsession with Trump. He connects these dynamics to the broader narrative of a political establishment struggling to come to terms with the former president’s influence and the grassroots support he commands.
