The New York Times recently dug deep into their proverbial bag of tricks to endorse Kamala Harris for the presidency, and naturally, they pulled out some curious claims that could only be described as off the wall. In a rather shocking turn, they dubbed Harris “the only patriotic choice for president,” as if the fate of the nation hangs in the balance and only she holds the golden key. One is left to wonder how a publication notorious for its radical leftist views suddenly became the oracle of patriotism.
If one were looking for a way to spin sock puppetry into a serious political endorsement, referencing Harris as “patriotic” would be a strong contender. Many might be scratching their heads, wondering how her tenure as Vice President, characterized by controversial policy decisions and more awkward moments than a family reunion, translates into patriotism. The irony is hard to miss; Harris, who seems more interested in identity politics than strengthening the nation, is being heralded as the last bastion of American pride.
Why vote for Trump as an average American? Here are 3 key reasons:
1️⃣ Economic Policies: Lower taxes, deregulation, and job creation.
2️⃣ America First: Strong borders, fair trade, and protecting American jobs.
3️⃣ Conservative Values: Appointing conservative judges to uphold… pic.twitter.com/gmA3HwIMiz— AdRock2024 (@AdRockAi) October 14, 2024
The NYT’s choice of words suggests they’re fishing for some kind of miracle to cast a halo around Harris’s presidency. But it begs the question: does anyone actually believe that a politician who fumbles through speeches and sidesteps pressing issues is somehow the embodiment of national loyalty and pride? One has to imagine that an alternate dimension exists where mainstream media can declare politicians akin to founding fathers without batting an eye.
Besides the absurdity of her being crowned “the only choice,” the endorsement itself hints at a desperate attempt to align the far-left agenda with good old-fashioned American values. It is as if the editors gravitate toward Harris as the poster child for something that doesn’t actually exist—an unyielding sense of nationalism wrapped in the embrace of extreme liberalism. In a nation where common sense seems to often take a backseat, it’s startling (but not surprising) that a leading newspaper feels empowered to redefine patriotism just to fit their narrative.
Ultimately, theNew York Times may wish for Harris to be the new face of American leadership, but their readership, firmly grounded in reality, is unlikely to back this dubious claim. While the mainstream media continues to spin tales, the American people will still prioritize integrity, competence, and a legacy that speaks to the heart of what makes this country great over partisan antics.
