In a stunning victory, Donald J. Trump, the insurgent billionaire has smashed all records, winning the White House with 277 electoral votes against 224 for the incumbent vice president Kamala Harris.
The victory is bitter sweet in that Trump has registered 71 352 000 votes against Kamala’s 66 415 000 votes. To rub salt to injury, Democrats lost in all the seven swing states, the so-called rust belt (the industrial homeland).
It is all bad news for the arrogant Democrats as the Republicans have also taken the Senate with a clear majority of 55 seats out of 100 seats. Republicans are also leading in the Lower House with 18 seats more than Democrats.
The narrative is clearly that the American people saw through all the persecution and trumped up charges levelled against Trump by Democrats and have reacted positively against the persecution.
Secondly, the Democrats, being the brainy party, and viewing the Republicans as the stupid party, related all the common-sense issues to them. Fortified by a captured Justice Department and media houses, Democrats were unaware of the bread-and-butter issues affecting the working classes, whom they had abandoned in favour of fancy imaginary globalist agendas.
An arrogant party
Beginning with president Bill Clinton (1992-2000) Democrats adopted a globalist attitude towards the working classes and became arrogant.
They created causes from thin air. They hated the petrol-driven automobile, ignoring the fact that Detroit and Michigan States are the capital of the automobile and steel industries.

The fact that the majority of solar systems and the EV (electrical vehicles) were Chinese imports did not interest them.
The crowning show of arrogance came with Hillary Clinton who called Trump’s hard hat non-college workers these bad words. “Half of Donald Trump’s supporters belong to a basket of deplorables, characterised by racist, sexists, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic and (Trump) has lifted them up.” ( September 16, 2016) She added that they were “irredeemable”.
Joe Biden and vice president Kamala Harris (2020-2024) intensified the attack on Trumpkins.
Democrats had a secret plan to replace the native-born American workers with 20 million illegal immigrants in four years (they accept 10.6 million figure), who like the welfare recipients are beholden to them.
In Chicago and New York, they settled 10 000 illegals per month, providing a pre-paid credit card of US$350 per week per family, free hotel accommodation, food stamps and entertainment.
US veterans and US born homeless looked at these illegals with envy.
The message was clear. If you don’t vote Democrat, you will be replaced.
The party that destroyed the family.
Apart from social media, evangelicals and Catholics have developed their own national television and radio services.
This did not deter Democrats as they were supported by captured print and television media. The great newspaper houses, such as New York Times, Cable News Network and American Broadcasting Corporation have morphed into Democratic stooges.
This, in the long run worked against them.
Victor Davis Hanson of Stanford discovered that anybody who supported Trump was likely to lose his job.
If that person displayed a Republican placard, his house could be vandalised.
The juicy part, according to Hanson was that Democratic pollsters widely inflated their support.
Anybody who was wise denied his empathy for Trump and claimed to be independent.
Kamala arrogantly went into black mega churches, telling the saints that abortion was a health issue, and that boys and girls and boys had gender rights (to change their sex to trans-humans), boys could swim in girls’ competitions and all kinds of nonsense.
Kamala was met with deceptive applauses, even as black young men, hard hat white workers and Muslims realised that the abortion rights issue, feminism and single mother welfare checks endangered male authority over families.
Serious discontent was brewing while King Ahab (Biden), Queen Jezebel (Kamala) and their 400 false priests sang hymns of their own greatness.
“The only garbage I know are his (Trump’s) supporters.” Said the great master Biden. “This (Trump) is the kind of guy you would like to smack in the ass.”
Biden has offered to “take Trump out” more than once.
Democrats appealed to Muslim voters in Michigan and Wisconsin (the swing states). Forget about the US-Israeli slaughter of your brothers in Gaza. Sanders made the following appeal to them. They must forget about the slaughter of their relatives.
“The real truth (is) that there is more than one issue. If you are interested in women having right to control their own bodies, you got to vote for (Kamala). If you are concerned about income and wealth inequality, vote for (Kamala).”
This tone-deaf appeal by Senator Bernie Sanders borders on genius.
Former president Barack Obama and his wife Michelle could not be outdone.
Black males, who were questioning the commitment by Kamala to unemployment and incarceration (She was the queen of incarceration in California) were given a severe scolding.
“Putting women down. That is unacceptable.” Obama scolded. Michelle added her two cents worth.
“Why is the race even close?” She scolded.
I am reminded of my experience with Zanu PF in 2008. My life savings in CABS and Founders million-dollar clubs called PUPS all went down the drain. I remember vice president Simon Muzenda telling me in a joking manner.
“Ken, if Zanu PF says you must vote for a baboon, then you must do so.”
That is the story of the US Democratic Party.
We need to remind our readers that the US under Trump is yet to face the genocide in Gaza.
If Trump supports the continued genocide, the Democrats will resort to public protests and riot to undermine the new administration.
Democrats are not fools.
