Inauguration Day is around the corner. Unlike 2016, when President Trump took the oath of office, 2024 seems to be calmer, tamer, and more celebratory. All the knives were out and being sharpened in 2016. Not so in 2024. President Trump’s landslide victory helped to unify the country. His enemies and detractors have retreated somewhat. Even Bret Stephens gave up his “Never Trump” status. Jeff Bezos is hanging out with Jared Kushner in Aspen, Colorado. Even Congressman Tom Suozzi writing in the New York Times called upon his fellow Democrats to work with President Trump.

The 2024 election for President of the United States was supposed to come down to which candidate was going to win Michigan. It did not. Kamala Harris invested a tremendous amount of political capital in Michigan. It seemed that her whole campaign revolved around wooing the Muslim vote there.

At the beginning of 2024 I compared President Trump’s developing comeback to that of President Andrew Jackson’s ascension 200 years earlier in 1828 when he won the election with 55% of the popular vote. Andrew Jackson had also lost his bid for the Presidency in 1824 under dubious circumstances.

Otto Skorzeny was commissioned by Adolf Hitler to terrorize Allied troops during and especially towards the end of World War II. Skorzeny is the father of modern terrorism and guerrilla warfare.  His force committed atrocities against U.S. troops in the waning days of World War II. Germany surrendered, but Skorzeny’s assassins continued to operate until 1947. He was imprisoned but escaped, as three SS officers dressed as U.S. soldiers freed him in 1948. 

The election of President Donald J. Trump transformed the world from the brink of World War III to a much more stable and safer place. The world’s gaping wounds began to heal.  The parade of Leftist titans, including Mark Zuckerberg, Tim Cook, and soon Jeff Bezos to Mar-a-Lago indicates that even the Democratic mega-donors realize that President Trump has already begun to make America great again.

There are many parallels between the 2016 and 2024 election for President of the United States. These highlight the strong indications that Donald Trump will emerge the victor.
