The relentless assault on Donald Trump has become nearly a sport for Democrats and their obedient media allies since 2015, showcasing an impressive array of disinformation tactics aimed at undermining his reputation and presidency. The barrage of lies and baseless allegations, from the ludicrous Russia collusion narrative to paint him as an outsider and a threat, has taken a toll on the national discourse. It’s a troubling reality that this behavior isn’t merely harmful to Trump — it’s damaging to the fabric of American society. Rather than fostering a constructive conversation, it has paved the way for division and vitriol.
Today’s political landscape finds President Joe Biden perpetuating recycled lies about Trump, notably his fabricated reason for running, which he attributes to the so-called “fine people” hoax stemming from the Charlottesville incident. Kamala Harris has taken a page from the same playbook, continuing to churn out falsehoods like tales of bleach and imminent bloodbaths. The desperation exhibited by Democrats to salvage their own narratives is evident, as they resort to any tactic possible to discredit Trump.

In the midst of this hostile climate, it can be easy to forget that not too long ago, even some of Trump’s fiercest critics were embracing him on mainstream platforms. A recent flashback shared by Joe Rogan showcased Trump’s appearance on “The View” back in 2015, when he was merely contemplating a presidential run. This throwback serves as a stark reminder of how the narrative around Trump has shifted dramatically. In those days, the ladies of “The View” were still approachable, at least in their on-screen demeanor, as they welcomed Trump, even eliciting cheers from the audience. Indeed, a time existed when he was merely seen as a controversial businessman rather than the target of a cult-like attack.
Barbara Walters, during that episode, introduced Trump as a friend, and even the notoriously abrasive Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg displayed camaraderie. Walters posed a legitimate question about Trump’s personal life, to which he delivered a humorous yet insightful response that resonated with the audience. Back then, Trump articulated concerns about America’s global vulnerabilities, sentiments that continue to echo in his current rhetoric. While Behar’s initial reaction was incredulity, it’s a safe bet she hadn’t yet been fully indoctrinated into the hate-Trump machine that now defines her public persona.
Rogan’s recollections underscore how the tides have turned, revealing a disturbing transformation driven by the political machine that seeks to maintain its grip on power. Democrats once celebrated Trump until he disrupted their narrative and threatened their authority. This quick pivot in public perception serves as a stark warning about the manipulation of public opinion through propaganda. Just as Trump was unjustly transformed into an emblem of extremism, the Democratic establishment now tries to rebrand Kamala Harris, a candidate marred by a lackluster record and tarnished reputation, as a beacon of hope.
In light of these observations, supporting Trump isn’t just about policy — it’s about understanding the broader context of restoring genuine discourse and challenging the entrenched powers that aim to shape public thought. Embracing Trump in 2024 means rejecting the distorted narratives that have been foisted upon the American public and flipping the script on those who have resorted to fearmongering and disinformation as a means of maintaining control. The stakes have never been higher.
