David Horowitz: Democratsâ Hatred of Trump Is Going to Bring Them Down
Donald Trumpâs State of the Union address was perfectly pitched for the political moment.
 Trump  did not use the word âseditionâ to describe the law-breaking and Constitution-negating actions of  his  Democratic predecessor or the Democrats assembled in the chamber of the House.  He  provided instead an opening to them to abandon their âresistanceâ â resistance to the expressed will of the American voting public which has led to a relentless sabotage of the democratic process. In sum   he  offered a hand to  his  Democratic haters  and they slapped it away.
When  Trump  summarized the successes of  his  first year in office   he  emphasized how the prosperity of  his  first twelve months impacted the lives and hopes of ordinary Americans  wage laborers and others whom the eight years of the Obama presidency had left behind. In doing so  he  exposed the Democrats in the most dramatic way imaginable.
Under  his  policies   he  boasted  black and Hispanic unemployment are record lows. As  he  said this and the Republican side of the house rose to its feet in applause the TV camera panned to the morose members of the Democratsâ Black Caucus  sitting on their hands and showing America that the last thing they care about is their black constituents. What they care about is their hatred for Trump  and about not disturbing the biggest lie of the political season: that the White House is the headquarters of a âwhite supremacyâ movement intent on keeping black Americans down and making them suffer.
