. Donald Trump’s enemies put behind them the defeat in the polls and began the second campaign to defeat Mr. Trump. The “resistance” self-defined itself. The media-incited street violence had begun almost immediately after the election but was planned and concerted by Inauguration Day.In addition to rioters, on that day, the cadres of identity politics—notably the self-proclaimed victims of sexism—assembled in Washington, D.C., to bid for media attention. The mainstream media were encamped all over the District and floating “big stories” like the absence of a crowd on the Washington Mall for President-Elect Trump’s inauguration ceremony (the photo they flashed around the country seems to have been taken five hours before the ceremony began).There are two things, here, to observe. The next campaign by the enemies of Trump had begun. And, as evidenced by the phony “no crowd” photo, the media enemies of Trump had learned from their defeat exactly nothing. It seemed apparent they would use identical “pull-out-the-stops,” “victory at any price,” tactics that lost them the 2016 election struggle.This book’s argument is that for three long years, 2017-2019, inclusive, the new President’s enemies have sought to drive him from office, discredit him with the electorate, and prevent him from governing. Chapters of this book chronicle how President Trump’s enemies challenged him on the spectrum of “politically correct” issues. From the outset, they also have sought to use the criminal justice system and the U.S. Constitution’s impeachment protocol to bring the President down. We have seen the more than two-year investigation led by former FBI head Robert Mueller to probe alleged Trump crimes during the election. Trump’s close associates were threatened with long prison sentences, virtually life, for “process” crimes during the investigation. In the end, they gave no evidence to persuade Mueller to prosecute. The exercise, prayerfully lionized by the media for two years, diverted attention from the President’s agenda, but ended in heartbreak for his enemies, still lacking any platform from which to launch an impeachment.Despite that, of course, within a year Democrats in the House, a majority, began to conduct impeachment proceedings. November 2019 ended three years of the second all-out campaign to defeat Trump. In December, the House of Representatives, on a straight-line party vote, produced articles of impeachment.Throughout the process, the President’s support in polls has been increasing to about 50 percent, now. The economy almost monthly sets new records for low unemployment—the single most determinate predictor of an incumbent’s reelection chances. The stock market made new historic highs on the days around the impeachment vote. Gold, a “safe haven” asset during times of insecurity about the future, sedately meandered.CNN is rapidly losing viewership. And more than 15 Democrats animated by conviction that they can redeem America have been rudely shouldering each other off the debate platform. It is part of the good luck Trump seems to enjoy in politics.Step by step, from declaration of the “resistance” through many skirmishes, this book narrates round 2 of President Trump versus his enemies and issues the “resistance” chose for the fight: sex change operations for U.S. service personnel, toppling confederate statues, immigration (“children in cages”), the Paris accords on climate, the Supreme Court appointment “MeToo” sideshow, “reparations” for black Americans, China trade, charges of a Trump wave of antisemitism, and Jessie Smollett’s new street theater.Editorialists, news show pundits, authors of articles and books simply could not resist exploring again and again every conceivable argument for linking President Trump to fascism, Nazis, Adolf Hitler. Some brought remarkable imagination to the task—pages of innuendo, guilt by association, leaps of logic.
