News, views and analyses ... for global health, prosperity and environmental quality.

By Paul Driessen

My friend Ken Reid says Democrats are pointing fingers and looking for answers to why Donald Trump and the Republicans had such a resounding victory November 5 – but few of them have looked inward at their top-down, over-zealous efforts to "get Trump" and tarnish MAGA Republicans.

The "Vast Right-wing Conspiracy" against Bill Clinton that Hillary railed against in 1998 failed to bring either of them down. However, the Left-Wing Cabal against Trump was even broader and more salient, and it also failed. The Cabal included Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, James Clyburn, the Obamas, the Clintons and their "top strategists."

In this fascinating commentary, Ken summarizes the many, ultimately failed efforts to destroy Trump through traditional top-down Democrat, "strategic masterminding." It was more than just "lawfare" that failed – and included the 2020 effort by the Obamas and Clyburn to push Democratic presidential hopefuls out of the primaries to give Joe Biden the nomination. Ken examines the players and hopes his analysis will lead to at least a little congressional, media and academic scrutiny of their tactics.
