Historian Victor Davis Hanson told Fox News host Tucker Carlson a “revolt” against “bicoastal snarky elites” was building Friday while discussing the upcoming midterm elections.
“They’ve brought people together, Tucker. There’s a new ecumenical movement of African American males, Hispanics and the white working class that detest these bicoastal elites and are starting to look in class concerns rather than these racial differences,” Hanson said. “Just the antipathy towards these left-wing elites has created a consensus that I haven’t seen in my lifetime, and I think that we’ll be shocked next Tuesday when it roars.

All this talk is about legally cast ballots. What about votes counted (esp by machines), harvested, certified and approved by corrupt and co-opted judges?

Used and taken for granted, getting no candy or flowers, many citizens who were charmed and deceived have found themselves shoved aside by the demonrat socialist Marxists in favor of illegal aliens.
They are finding out they do not have equal representation for their rights. Its about time reality hit, and they like the rest of us are needlessly paying more for everything in favor of a handful of environmentalist wackos by a few of the "anointed" going for broke to pass an agenda instead of representing everyone.
Welcome! Please make your voice heard, realizing that not everyone gets all they want all at once. Those who we seek to defeat have been playing this long game for decades.

If vote counting in certain states is taking longer than expected to take for no apparent reason, then the fix is in. Look for excuses from election officials in those states.

Paragraph 4: "I think we paid a helluva price. . .people saw in the raw neolism and socialism".
It's "nihilism", not "neolism".
Does ANYONE proofread, anymore? Or are our schools that bad?

I live in (what is called) a mobile home. I invited a person from New England into the home for a cup of coffee. My invitation was rebuffed because of the home. I determined she is an elite.

It is looking like the outliers will be the Coastal elite sections of the United States after this election.
it is also painfully clear that Democrats oppose election integrity and reforms that make it harder to cheat and to ensure voter rolls remove dead people, in particular. There's a reason for that, and it's not fair and honest elections either.

#5 I think you might be right about the word VDH intended. Otherwise, neologism would seem logical spelling, but not usage. What would a neologism have to do with socialism, unless you're talking about the redefinition of words, which does happen when a totalitarian is consolidating power. In "1984" Orwell demonstrated that redefinition of words, and he witnessed the process in the Bolshevik and NAZI regimes as well as what he saw as the perversion of the socialist ideal: monstrous failure in practice.
Someone suggested nihilism, as the correct transcription. It could fit while describing the typical evolution of socialism as it is more characteristic of fascism totalitarianism which requires the complete submission to the State: everything in the State, everything for the State, nothing outside of the State.
Maybe it's just me, but I've read and re-read that paragraph and it just doesn't have the usual clarity of VDH, perhaps because it's a transcription from the Tucker segment? Anyway, I think his point is still clear: The Left has been busy convincing dwellers in "flyover country" that their vote hasn't ever and won't i now change anything, it doesn't matter, can't understand intellectually anyway, and so too many people agreed and sat home as their sense of apathy deepened.
Then came President Trump who unabashedly spoke of his love for America and the people. He must be credited for showing them (and all) that the coastal elites were wrong, and are wrong, that they're liars. The result was and is more people than ever have voted. They ARE paying attention.
Dems, on the other hand, have had an excellent get-out-the-vote machine for decades. Their voters don't have to think at all, just obey and check the "D".
