Trump says he spent some time over the weekend working at a McDonalds to establish that he has worked at McDonalds longer than Kamala Harris – whose claims that she worked at McDonalds cannot be verified. Which strongly suggests she did not. McDonalds is a major corporation and they keep records of such things. Also, such things can usually be corroborated by friends and family who would know whether the person did – or didn’t.
I did, when I was in high school back in the ’80s. Anyone who wanted to verify it could, either with McDonalds or by checking with people who knew me when I was in high school. I have no problem saying I worked at McDonalds
because I did. Harris says she did. The distinction is important.
Harris has also been saying she didn’t work as the Biden Thing’s “Border Czar” – an oddly autocratic title to hold for a person who says she is committed to “democracy.” But we know she did hold that position. Which she now pretends she didn’t.
The two juxtapose in interesting ways. Both are suggestive of extreme and unabashed fraudulence. Of the species of lying that’s so in-your-face it’s difficult for psychologically normal people to grasp the depth of it. Trump is certainly many things but there is a streak of authenticity that vibes with people. It manifests in his un-TelePrompter’d insults, which though perhaps boorish are at least . . . authentic. No one else writes his material. When Harris hasn’t got things to say written by other people she tends to laugh unnaturally while gesticulating strangely, in the manner of the kicking at the air of a dog just hit by a car.
Also authentic is the resurgent swell of middle-and-working-class nationalism of all races that Trump awakened. Black and Hispanic men who work for a living are realizing that situationally black women like Harris do not. This is key to understanding why Trump is so rabidly and publicly despised by Barry Obama, Hillary Clinton and Mitt Romney, Dick Cheney, et al.
By those who support Harris even more so, for they understand the threat presented by a populist, nationalist movement of the working and middle classes of all races. That if it gains purchase it will be their undoing.
Trump is a genius in terms of his understanding of this, even if it is only an instinctive sort of genius. Going to work at McDonalds is evidence of this. Just as the almost-universal failure of the Left to get this is evidence of the Left’s inability to understand the appeal of the Orange Man. They sneer at what they see as a “stunt.” At the juvenility of it, as they regard it.
Trump knows better, even if he does not know it in an intellectual-philosophical sense. He connects with the average guy and that has always been the way to win in politics. Clinton – him rather than her – knew this. Barry Obama knows it. They worked it like a $20 escort at a Vegas car dealer’s convention.
But they were – they are – frauds. And the working and middle classes of all races begin to understand this. It no longer really matters whether the Orange Man is one, also. Consciously or inadvertently, he has triggered an awakening. One that has the potential to transcend him.
An excerpt from the 19th century poem by Heinrich Heine comes to mind:
“The frenzied madness of the ancient warriors, that insane Berserk rage of which the Nordic bards have spoken and sung so often, will once more burst into flame. . . the ancient stony gods will rise from the forgotten debris and rub the dust of a thousand years from their eyes. And then Thor, with his giant hammer, will jump up and smash the Gothic cathedrals.”
Only it won’t be the Gothic cathedrals this time. It will be something far more deserving of smashing.

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
