The king is dead, long live the king!
The above phrase has its roots in 15th-century France, where the proclamation occurred at the moment when the coffin of a deceased monarch descended into the vault of the church and a fresh king began his reign.
In the case of this article, the “dead king” is Vice President Kamala’s doomed 2024 presidential campaign and her embrace—along with the embrace of the entire Democratic Party and its sycophantic media—by (and through) Hollywood snoots, coastal elites, mega-donors, ” Trans” Americans, the no longer hallowed halls of academia, and other out-of-touch elites on the far left.
In short, we talk about it Identity politics.
Given the multitude of pre-election poll results that repeatedly showed that everyday Americans were fed up with everything related to the four miserable years of the Biden-Harris administration, especially Bidenomics and the ever-rising costs of food and others consumer goods with the intentionally created, never-ending flow of illegal aliens across the southern border and, most importantly, After President-elect Donald Trump blasted Harris and her radical left-wing policies from coast to coast, swing state to swing state, and blue wall state to blue wall state, it is a fair assumption that Identity politics is actually dead, and Donald Trump killed it.
Whether identity politics stays dead will depend in enormous part on how and what Trump and his administration achieve all Americans over the next four years.
Before we go too far, let’s first take a look at the words of Victor Davis Hanson (VDH) and his analysis of why he believes Trump won.
VDH, an American classicist, military historian and conservative political commentator, explained British journalist Piers Morgan in his podcast “Piers Morgan Uncensored” explains how Trump managed to win voters from the Democratic Party and “Middle America” and clearly defeat Harris and her stubborn adherence to identity politics (emphasis mine).
For the first time in my life he was able to do this Replace racist tribalism with class solidarity… and they don’t want to confront that. In other words, he told people, “If you’re a Mexican-American truck driver, if you’re a black electrician, if you’re a poor white carpenter, They have more in common with each other than with their elites on the bicoastal domain.’
Exactly.
The Democratic Party has favored and exploited black Americans and other people of color, as well as “poor white” Americans for decades, Morgan suggests. The 2020 presidential election, even though Trump lost, was the beginning of what would explode in 2024: a historic surge of Black and Hispanic voters leaving the Democratic Party for Trump and rejecting Republican candidates, as did the Blue and Whites in the Rust Belt Many of them broke with their union “suggestion” of who they should support.

Hanson further explained:
In other words, The people at Stanford University do not represent working people at, in Michigan, or the Latin American media spokesperson for La Raza Latinx does not represent the people I live with right here in the San Joaquin Valley.
And that was a radical idea. He made incredible gains among Mexican-Americans, Native Americans, Asians and African-Americans. And if he hadn’t made those gains, he wouldn’t have won.
And tThey don’t want to deal with that because that’s the cornerstone of the Democratic Party. Victim, victimization, victim, oppressor, oppressed. And You have this kind of Marxist binary. And People don’t believe in it, and especially minorities don’t believe in it.
Yet the leftist elites continue to sit in their self-righteous seats and dominate the rest of us that we are too stupid and incapable of understanding how a Harris-Walz government would have been in our best unwitting interests. Imagine that.

While Victor Davis Hanson spoke honestly on Morgan’s podcast (as he always does), Morgan, who is sometimes (OK, most of the time) a The snobbish, fingernails-on-a-chalkboard-sounding, condescending British snob actually seemed to be all in on it.
On the other hand, how can anyone not understand with a modicum of intelligence and objectivity why Harris lost?
With again a minimum level of intelligence and objectivity, which excludes the majority of the Democratic Party and its lapdog media. And please for Hollywood and science.
Period.
