Welcome to 2020, the Year of the Good Fight

The Constitution has, arguably, been saved by Trump’s judicial appointments. He has restocked the federal judiciary with highly qualified constitutional conservatives, including one-fourth of the entire appellate bench.

Democrats, meanwhile, are struggling to sustain the idea that America needs radical change, and to convince the country of the farcical idea that Trump is somehow an imminent threat to the security and welfare of the country.

They have offered up the weakest field of presidential contenders in decades, and have backed themselves into a corner with an impeachment that cannot result in Trump’s removal.

Trump’s victory in November is far from certain. He still has almost the entire media against him — and, worse, the tech giants who control social networks and search engines.

Democrats could recruit a political savior — Michelle Obama, perhaps? — if they fail to nominate a candidate on the first ballot at their convention in Milwaukee in July.

And there is always the risk of an unforeseen economic or national security disaster.

Yet the president is certainly in a better position on January 1, 2020 than he was a year before.

The Democrats, who took over the House of Representatives, squandered the opportunity as the left-wing “Squad” took over the agenda with radical schemes like the “Green New Deal” and “Medicare for All.” They wasted months on impeachment and will never recover.

Trump trailed most of his rivals for much of the year; new polls show him beating all of them.

The impeachment trial in the Seante is almost certain to end badly for the Democrats, who have managed to scare the public into thinking, correctly, that the opposition will not be satisfied with the White House alone, that it still dreams of “fundamentally transforming the United States,” culturally and religiously as well as politically.

Meanwhile, Republicans can rally behind the flag, the Constitution, and the American way.

The outcome is still unknown, but the fight is one to relish.
