Three Miles: Part 5

It’s been a rough few days for the leftist media elites, they have been in anguish ever since Election Day.  The mix of anger and sadness poured out as they called the massive win for Donald Trump and the GOP a “nightmare” and questioned if America had “given up on democracy.” Journalists like Stephanie Ruhle warned that the voters had just “f’d around” and were about to “find out.”  MSNBC’s Joy Reid lectured Latino men: “Y’all voted with….David Duke and against your own sisters.” MSNBC’s Claire McCaskill choked back tears as she worried that America had turned their backs on their “better angels,” by electing Trump.  The following are just a few of the most epic election meltdowns from the leftist media elite:    “People Who Woke Up This Morning With A Dream” Are “Going to Bed With a Nightmare”     “I am thinking about the people who are not a part of anybody’s elite, who are hurting tonight. There are African-American women who know a little bit about being talked down to. They know a little bit about having their economic dreams crushed. Who tried to dream a big dream over the past couple of months….They’re trading in a lot of hope for a lot of hurt….They’re not the only people who are hurting tonight. If you are a parent of a trans kid, your child’s face was used as a springboard to power for somebody. That doesn’t feel good. There are going to be people tomorrow who are going to be handing clothes at the dryers to people who don’t have papers. There are people who are going to be cleaning your teeth tomorrow who don’t have papers. And they are terrified tonight….It’s not the elites who are going to pay the price. It’s people who woke up this morning with a dream and are going to bed with a nightmare….Those are the people who are going to pay the price for whatever Donald Trump decided to do.”— CNN contributor Van Jones on CNN’s Election Night in America, November 6.    Have the American People “Given Up On Democracy?” “I was mystified by what was going on. And now I can’t help but think that if this election seems to be — if it proves out that the millions of people who are watching Fox News, if that ends up being the case, then I can’t help but wonder if the American people have given up on democracy.” — Washington Post Associate Editor/PBS contributor Jonathan Capehart on PBS’s live election coverage, November 6.   MSNBCer: America Just F’d Around and Is About to “Find Out”     “This is about a huge portion of our population who rejected the current system and what we have to solve for is why. We are the most prosperous and powerful nation in the world. This country is winning. I want to know why so many people in this country are feeling like we’re losing. Whether it is the economy, immigration, or for lack of a better term, ‘wokism’, we have now let misinformation become the accepted information. It has washed over us. Elon Musk, he buys Twitter and then he uses it almost exclusively to be a propaganda machine and we’ve accepted it. We’ve accepted a narrative that despite an actually great economic recovery, the vibes don’t feel good. So we want to reject it and get something else. And the person we are now betting on to change all of it is Donald Trump, a man who did two almost impossible things. He won the American presidency twice and he drove a casino into the ground. What will the future hold now that America has just decided we’re going to F around and find out?”— Host Stephanie Ruhle on MSNBC’s The 11th Hour, November 6.    Lecturing Latino Men Who Voted for Trump     “Trump won every age group of men, including 60 percent of Gen X men and 6 in 10 white men. Also Latino men, who despite the utter disrespect shown by Trump and his promise to deport some of your mixed class — mixed status families, most of them voted in a 55 percent majority to make the deportations happen. Y’all voted with Steven Miller and David Duke and against your own sisters and chose Kamala — who chose Kamala Harris, with 60 percent of their votes. So you own everything that happens to your mixed status families and to your wives, sisters, and abuelas from here on in.”— Host Joy Reid on MSNBC’s The ReidOut, November 7.    America Elected the “Strongman” “Bully”     Co-host Ana Cabrera: “Trump has been impeached twice, he was indicted four times, convicted on 34 felony counts, he’s been found liable of sexual abuse. His campaign spewed a lot of racism, misogyny, xenophobia, but voters seem to overlook all of that….The kind of language we heard. It was mean. Why has that seemingly become acceptable in America?Comedian/former CNN host W. Kamau Bell: “Respectfully I don’t think voters overlooked it. I think voters ran towards it. I think voters loved it….This is the country we live in. People at this point want a strongman who’s a bully and they got a strongman who is a bully.” — MSNBC Reports: Decision 2024, November 6.    Trump Won On Appealing to “Fear,” Americans Turned Away From Their “Better Angels”      “We have to acknowledge that Donald Trump knows our country better than we do. I think he figured out that anger and, frankly, fear, were way more powerful than appealing to people’s better angels. That anger and fear were going to work in this election. Whether you’re afraid of immigrants, or afraid of people who are trans, he figured that out. And I think we all thought everyone’s better angels would prevail. Turns out, the better angels went on vacation when Donald Trump came down the escalator, and they haven’t returned.”— Contributor Claire McCaskill on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, November 6.   The Country Does Not Deserve Donald Trump   “His [Donald Trump] national security adviser is his own mouth. He will just say what he thinks and the country does not deserve this. The country deserves somebody who will really care about the country, have a plan and have a spine.” — Washington Post Associate editor Bob Woodward on WashingtonPostLive, November 5.    Raging Against “Openly Fascist” DeSantis’s “Threats” On “Bodily Autonomy”     “Ron DeSantis has put everything on trying to ensure that Florida will buck the trend of every other state, including red states, that have passed the right to bodily autonomy. He’s put everything on it including, as you said, threats — whatever it takes to try to make sure that that amendment fails using the power of government that is, I would say, openly fascist and determinative — and very determined.”— MSNBC host Joy Reid on MSNBC’s live election night coverage, November 5.   Trump’s “Dark” Messaging “I have never heard his [Donald Trump] messaging as dark as it has been in recent weeks….We saw the former President cast his ballot in Florida where he falsely claimed yet again fraud in 2020 and he talked again with lies about criminal migrants, he said pouring through our border, that is just factually untrue….It’s important that we talk about what he has done with the race in this campaign since the very beginning because it has really been like unlike anything we have seen in modern political history. He has suggested that migrants have bad genes, that they are poisoning the blood of our country….There is a very clear strategy with Donald Trump…He is targeting and really trying to speak to young men who feel aggrieved in this country who feel like they have not been getting their fair share, tapping into a frustration that they see with immigration, those numbers that we saw in December of people pouring across the border, telling them those are the people making our neighborhoods unsafe and they are taking their jobs and really tapping into this us versus them.”— CBS’s 60 Minutes correspondent Cecilia Vega on CBS News: America Decides: Campaign ’24 Election Night, November 5.    People Are Afraid Trump and His Supporters Will “Do Bad Stuff to Them”  “People are angry and people are dissatisfied, in large part because Donald Trump has created an environment that is so toxic for people. You have people who are literally afraid of whatever happens in this election. There are people who are afraid that if he wins, he’s going to do bad stuff to them. And they’re afraid if he loses, his supporters might hurt them.”— CNN contributor Van Jones on CNN’s Election Night in America, November 5.   It’s Harris’s “Hope” vs. Trump’s “Pessimism”      Co-host Joe Scarborough: “I don’t know that I’ve ever seen as much contrast in a closing message. Not just on energy, and on vitality and on vigor. But also just the overall message of hope, optimism, versus pessimism, grimness….He seems more untethered, and more exhausted at the same time….It’s all about contrast! You get then to this campaign. I’ve never seen a greater contrast in American politics.”...Contributor Katty Kay: “When Donald Trump talks about violence like this. When he talks about beating up his stagehands because his microphone isn't working the way he wants it to, that doesn't inspire a lot of women to think, ‘Oh yeah, this is the guy we can trust with the nuclear codes, and the key to the Oval Office.’”— MSNBC’s Morning Joe, November 4.    Reid: One Side (Harris) Stands for Freedom the Other (Trump) ls Literally Hitler!   “We’ve laid out the stakes in this crucial election where one side stands for freedom, while the other meets the textbook definition of fascism. Namely, a far right dictatorial regime like Hitler’s Germany or Franco’s Spain or Mussolini's Italy, but also white-ruled South Africa before Mandela and the black majority took control, or Vladimir Putin’s Russia, Viktor Orban’s Hungary, or Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela today, that suppresses the rights of women and minorities, uses the military to execute the whims of a strongman dictator and controls and suppresses the press, education, the arts- rewrites history to suit a favored and dominant racial class, and foments extravagant corruption in order to enrich the dictator and his friends.”— Host Joy Reid on MSNBC’s The ReidOut, November 4.    Kasie’s Closing Case for Kamala “Harris invoking Martin Luther King Jr., Trump closing with more violent rhetoric, raising the specter of reporters being shot and already casting doubt on the election results. He said there he shouldn’t have left in 2020. That is part of a broader strategy that we should be paying attention to in the race’s final days….It’s been the message behind the scenes, too, with Trump aides and supporters trying to create a sense of inevitability that would raise doubts in the event of a Trump loss….But in the final hours of this presidential race, there are some signs that late momentum could be with Vice President Kamala Harris….The highly-anticipated and well-respected Iowa poll from Ann Selzer and The Des Moines Register shocking the political world over the weekend with a three-point lead for Kamala Harris over Donald Trump in the ruby-red Hawkeye State. That’s a seven-point swing since the last Iowa poll in September. And right now, Democrats are cautiously optimistic that things are breaking their way.”— Kasie Hunt on CNN This Morning, November 4.    “Morally Bankrupt” GOP is The Party That Needs a Postmortem     Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin: “I do think that in this postmortem that needs to happen with Democrats….”Co-host Sunny Hostin: “What about a postmortem on the Republican Party, which is the Trump Party right now?”Griffin: “Well, they just swept, though.”...Hostin: “They won, but they’re morally bankrupt!”|— ABC’s The View, November 7.   How Did Trump Win So Many Latinos? “Misogyny” and “Sexism!”      Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin: “We talk a lot about these different demographics and these assumptions of how they’re going to go. Latinos in Texas, a district that’s 97 percent Latino went 75 percent for Donald Trump. Why?”Co-host Sunny Hostin: “Misogyny. That’s why.”Griffin: “No! It's on the border!”Hostin: “It’s misogyny.”Griffin: “The border crisis is on their doorstep! And they were begging people to care about it for years. We need to take some lessons.”Hostin: “Misogyny and sexism, that’s what that was.”— ABC’s The View, November 7.   “Profoundly Disturbed” “I’m profoundly disturbed….I think that in 2016 we didn’t know what we would get from a Trump administration. But we know now. And we know now that he will have almost unfettered power….I worry about the working-class. I worry about my mother, a retired teacher. I worry about our elderly and their social security and their Medicare. I worry about my children’s future, especially my daughter who now has less rights than I have….I think that going forward, the convicted felon box on employment applications better be taken off. Because if you can be President of the United States, then you should not be prevented from employment in this country.”— Co-host Sunny Hostin on ABC’s The View, November 6. 

The passage of a few days to allow for more mature reflection after Election Day has not affected Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart. On Friday’s PBS News Hour, Capehart attributed Donald Trump’s victory to “racism and sexism” and a list of other horribles that the country refuses to acknowledge. After New York Times columnist David Brooks observed that out-of-touch college-educated elites were to blame, host Geoff Bennett asked Capehart if he agreed, “Jonathan, do you see that same kind of realignment, that the new fault line in our politics is education level?”     Capehart didn’t disagree, but he would much rather avoid any introspection. “It's one of them. I mean, I don't disagree with anything that David just said in terms of his analysis, but we cannot ignore what was being discussed in the last segment there with Errin Haines and Professor Dittmar. The role of racism and sexism, misogyny, grievance, white nationalism, that was very much a part of Donald Trump's campaign.” He then lamented, “I think we need to acknowledge it. We need to talk about it. And then I think, as a country, we need to confront it. We’ve never done it in our history. We probably won't do it now.” Perhaps because he is the definition of the aloof elite that Brooks was talking about, Capehart naturally had other things to blame, “We could talk about education realignment. We can talk about political realignment. But until we talk about the grievances that Donald Trump exploited, as Professor Dittmar said, we're going to be in this mess for a while.” Bennett then turned to Brooks and asked, “What about that, David, that that wasn't disqualifying?” Brooks replied that while he personally is no Trump fan, Democrats still need to ask themselves why Kamala Harris managed to perform so badly, “I personally think Donald Trump is clearly a misogynist. I think he's clearly a racist. I think that's been in his family for generations, frankly. But to make that argument, somehow, you also have to explain why the gender gap went down, why Kamala Harris did worse among women than Joe Biden did.” He added, “Somehow, you have to explain why Trump got more Black voters than any Republicans since Richard Nixon. Somehow, you have to explain how he massively improved Republicans standing among Hispanic voters.” For Brooks, the answer is voters aren’t as obsessed with race and sex-based identity politics as Democrats are, “The way I would explain those phenomenon is race and sexism were clearly major facts in American life. But I think in our politics, class is rising in salience and race and gender are falling in salience. And when you say people had to choose between their race or their gender for — about white women, you're ignoring that they have brains and that they have economic views, they have social views, they have a million other views. And so those views are part of how people make their decisions, not just an ethnic identity.” If Trump is as bad as Capehart says he is, then he should ask himself how it was possible to lose to him. Attacking the voters as racist and sexism while women and minorities voted for him in larger numbers is a recipe for Capehart to have to repeat himself in four years. Here is a transcript for the November 8 show: PBS News Hour 11/8/0224 7:37 PM ET GEOFF BENNETT: Jonathan, do you see that same kind of realignment, that the new fault line in our politics is education level? JONATHAN CAPEHART: It's one of them. I mean, I don't disagree with anything that David just said in terms of his analysis, but we cannot ignore what was being discussed in the last segment there with Errin Haines and Professor Dittmar. The role of racism and sexism, misogyny, grievance, white nationalism, that was very much a part of Donald Trump's campaign. And I think we need to acknowledge it. We need to talk about it. And then I think, as a country, we need to confront it. We’ve never done it in our history. We probably won't do it now. But I think we need to acknowledge the fact that the incoming president of the United States openly ran on racist messages about fellow citizens, non-citizens, people who have always come to this country seeking a better life long before "Build the wall." So, yeah, we could talk about education realignment. We can talk about political realignment. But until we talk about the grievances that Donald Trump exploited, as Professor Dittmar said, we're going to be in this mess for a while. BENNETT: What about that, David, that that wasn't disqualifying? DAVID BROOKS: Yes, a million things have shocked me that have not been disqualifying about Donald Trump. I personally think Donald Trump is clearly a misogynist. I think he's clearly a racist. I think that's been in his family for generations, frankly. But to make that argument, somehow, you also have to explain why the gender gap went down, why Kamala Harris did worse among women than Joe Biden did. Somehow, you have to explain why Trump got more Black voters than any Republicans since Richard Nixon. Somehow, you have to explain how he massively improved Republicans standing among Hispanic voters. And so he created this broad network. And the way I would explain those phenomenon is race and sexism were clearly major facts in American life. But I think in our politics, class is rising in salience and race and gender are falling in salience. And when you say people had to choose between their race or their gender for — about white women, you're ignoring that they have brains and that they have economic views, they have social views, they have a million other views. And so those views are part of how people make their decisions, not just an ethnic identity.
