Victor Davis Hanson | Plague, Panic, and Protests-The Weird Election Year of 2020 

Pity that Sowell is over 90 now. But Hanson is still in his 60´s! I wish that these people can live 150-200 years.

Old?? Just a state of mind

Maybe call yourself a citizen of the United States. American could be a Venezuelan, or, worse, a Canadian. I was born in California. I am a citizen of the United States. I am not an American. The word never appears in the Constitution as a descriptor of the people of the United States.

@@hydrolito I play Charvel/Jackson, Gibson and Dean guitars. I love skateboarding, snowboarding and I’m building a ‘55 Chevy truck for my little brother. Jordan Peterson has helped many people, all around the world…

Luv him.

He needs to get more exposure. He's the main lecturer for a extraordinarily under-subscribed channel, which covers his major areas of expertise (ancient Greece / Rome, WW2) in a way that specifically points out how these events formed America as it is today. ru-vid.com/show-UC_mKQpt648ouOD7SuotFhSA

Yes Victor Hansen Davis is the most articulate genius of our time. Thank God he’s on our side!

@dfctomm That's insane. Today's California is a function of the Berkeley lunatics juiced by Silicon Valley money.

@dfctomm Were there selfish and short-sighted Republicans in California, who profited from exploiting cheap southern labor? Sure, I'd buy that. But I'm not convinced that VDH is among them. That said, I'm not as familiar as I should be with the fall of the California GOP. The Republicans are reluctant to talk about it, and I wouldn't trust anything the Democrats had to say on the subject.

dfctomm VDH is a republican and the Democrats have ruined California for decades just like AZlL of the democrat run cities.

I wish I could screen shot your post and post on FB..but theyll take it down

Yes, many talented, smart people are incredibly naive when it comes to politics...but i think the left wing has overplayed their hand, enough people see the truth...THIS TIME

On a positive note, The conservative party in England won a major victory with the overwhelming defeat of the left in their elections. National populism is making a resurgence in the world.

My only question for you Leandro is why is it that Lationo's/Hispanics (Mexico, Columbia, Venezuela, etc....) culturally always seem to gravitate towards Socialism. It's a cultural thing among Latins that has always perplexed me since most Latins from what I see tend to seem to be conservative leaning in personal life. It defies reason.

@@parnpichate The "Conservative" party of the UK is barely conservative or right wing. It supports draconian free-speech laws, mass CCTV, mass immigration from anywhete but Europe ( Brexit), and one of the biggest welfare states on Earth......

he's lecturing - it's his opinion he's not debating or taking questions from others who are equally informed but of entirely different opionon

@marie - Why has "your side" embraced willful ignorance and false history?!? Here are some facts about USA history, the Electoral College, the 3/5ths rule, USA slavery, and the *civil war*. The sources of this information are the USA Constitution and actual events in USA history: *Slavers are terrorists. Slavery is terrorism. Those who go to war to defend slavers and preserve slavery are also considered terrorists.* The Electoral College was written for only one purpose. The Electoral College was written by terrorists(slavers) to be nothing more than a "welfare benefit" for themselves and other USA terrorists. The E C, plus the 3/5ths census rule, awards excessive national governmental and political power to terrorists(slavers). The Electoral College and the 3/5ths rule encouraged and rewarded the terrorism of slavery. The Electoral College and the 3/5ths rule allowed terrorists to dominate the USA national government until around 1850-1860. The USA's "founding fathers" were the USA's first group of "welfare queens". Ten of the first twelve USA presidents were terrorists. What happened around 1860 when abolition and the prohibition of slaver terrorism in the new territories and Western states greatly reduced the "free stuff" to which the terrorists had become so accustomed? One of the biggest blows to the "terrorist welfare queens" was the prohibition of slaver terrorism in Western states. That's one of the reasons you hear that whiney, old csa/kkk terrorist propaganda phrase, "We don't want to be ruled by the coasts!". What happened when the terrorist "welfare queens" lost their "free stuff" from the USA government? What happened when the terrorist slavers could no longer easily dominate the USA national government and national politics? The csa was just a low-life, MS-13-type gang of butthurt "welfare queens". After helping to cause the civil war, the Electoral College became a "welfare benefit" for states which suppress voting. I wonder which states LOVE to suppress voting .......... might they be the former terrorist states and terrorist sympathizer states? Eliminate the Electoral College. It has poisoned the USA!

@@crankyinvestor VDH is above being questioned - did you not get his memo on that?

“Our side”. Those two words are what is wrong with America. We are all Americans. Some think one way about issues and others have a different opinion. It doesn’t make them your enemy. Stop viewing politics as if it is a professional sport.

Thank You! I am of Canadian descent, Both my Mother and Father were from Canada. I am so sorry for what has happened to your great country! I hope we don,t fall the same way! Trump must win.

Eh?

@@michaele4830 only fools wouldn’t see Democrats are so radical now and ARE COMMUNISTS ..... socialized everything

With respect, what made the USA such a great country, was its middle class and they're abilty to save money. They, the middle class, are now drowning in debt, levies and taxes. If the grass is so green on the other side of the 49th what's holding you back? Last time I checked there weren't any gulags or FEMA camps being built in Canada.

And what do you think will be done about it? We have allowed this crap to breed for decades. 9/11 should have been our wake up call... but we are stuoid.

@Isa Correct. No one should get free healthcare.

Let’s hope he’s wrong (as much I’d hate to think he could ever be wrong about anything).

That may help future henerations, but what about THIS one?

*hurd

Anarchy simply means "no rulers". It's often misused, the way Democrats call themselves "liberal."

Read Bob Woodward' s Rage and listen to the Trump interview tapes. See you at the polls.

Yep, he got it right but he does not know which is which!

the anarchy is just a temporary prerequisite to usher in their authoritarian technocracy

Yes he did

yes--they have been doing it for centuries, but is has now evolved into a technocrat cult that is beyond psychotic and mega-rich, and is apparently fronted by Bill Gates in the US. he only wants to shoot everyone in the world up with whatever, in order to get to their end game goal of 2030s literal walking I-phone zombies.

Apparently you have forgotten the events of 1789 in France, and 1918 in Russia, and 1945 in China. The wealthy push their agenda until the people rise and exterminate them, and start the game over.

Socialist Democrats want Open borders, for more votes because they will vote Democratic and they want free everything paid for by the U.S> citizens taxes.! The wealthy are now mostly Socialist Democrats, Look at Hollywood! Scientology! One World Order all the Filthy Rich! They want complete control over the rest of civilization. maybe OPRA and countless others.

Very powerful

What you are describing was made possible by over 40 years of unchecked oligarchy. A seamless uniting of the elite ultra rich business leaders with their political flunkies. The neo-liberal viewpoint which says that as long as the rich are succeeding, everyone else will succeed. Move your job overseas for more profit? Oh that’s fine. Only a communist would complain. Allow pharmaceutical companies to sell an unchecked amount of dangerous opiates into communities across the country? No problemo! Oh so half the rust belt town you live in is dying from drug overdoses? That’s just an insignificant detail! Remove all sensible regulations and therefore put the economy and American lives at risk for some extra revenue? Great idea! These are the outcomes of a nation that is solely focused on the individual wealthy elites. I find it surprising that all of a sudden in the past 4 years, people are now realizing the tragic mistakes we’ve made for 4 decades.

Amen

LOL Jordan Peterson is another Russian intelligence officer seeking to destroy the West. Good buddy of Comrade Victor Davis Hanson.

Same here!!

mike johnston, 😊

He hasn’t been cancelled because he isn’t employed by any mainstream outlets. It’s not like he’s a sports commentator. You’ll notice there are no “hater” comments here. He flies under the radar, and most of the folks on the other side have never heard of him. (Yes, it is unfortunate that not everyone has heard of him) Also, those on the other side tend to ignore folks like VDH even if they are aware of him, he is too calm and too wise to attack. They go for low hanging fruit.

Kevin R Great point. Speakers like Candace Owens and Ben Shapiro are important as youthful purveyors but, their volume, enthusiasm and occasional insults are what makes them targets of the left. VDH Thomas Sowell, Allen West and other seasoned conservatives remind me of wise old Indian chiefs who taught that knee jerk reaction to events can get you nullified or killed.

yes cancelled, never mind out right banned...thought it was supposed to be a democrat country with free speech.

They would have to reveal the truth if they tried to contend with him. Intellectuals who could refute their foolish statements of why what they do is OK .

Obviously they can't....Not yet anyway.

VDH and Thomas Sowell are rare wise men. VDH is humble yet so enlightened. Sowell is calm and brilliant. America should indeed listen and learn from these two intellectuals who are both honest and wisely patriotic. Lynn

VDH, although he has a phd and has written numerous books and articles, has never forgotten his roots that farmed in California's central valley for generations. That is why is is so readable and appealing to poor schmucks like me.

@@MrSA1829 Back there in 2016, my best friend ex-girlfriend dumped me as a friend (she knew I really voted for Trump instead of Jill Stein). Landscaping clients threatened to black-list me until I faked them out with the Jill Stein lie. Even now I don't trust telling anyone who I vote for -- and I live in a blue-collar work town fifty miles south of Boulder. It blew my mind Trump won last time -- I hope he wins again.

NEVER tell hate filled liberals you vote opposite of them. Then again, you know what you're dealing with if you have them as "friends."

@@GeorgeFlippin I certainly learned a lesson about how fanatical liberals can be about their ideology. It was so over-the-top it was comical -- but they were serious.

So sad we can't have conversations anymore.

Y does he confess Jesus Christ. No so dont wish him GOD speed

That is sooooo true !! Every time I see him on tv , I find myself saying out LOUD to the host " shut up and let him share his knowledge , it's 100 times more important than anything you could think of to ask or reply on !!"

Fox News host: So Victor, who do you think will win this election? VDH: I think Trump. Host: Why is that? VDH: Well, going back all the way to Plato, we can see a pattern - Host: We’ll be right back, folks! Stick with us! (I Can’t Get No Satisfaction plays) VDH: 😒

@@edifiedreader Laura Ingraham is particularly bad about interrupting VDH. Sometimes, you understand that she's coaching him to get to some point that will zing the viewers and keep them glued to the TV. However, much more often I find myself wishing she'd just shut up and let the man speak.

If he is so smart y cant i still here the truth. When no 1 tells u 2 turn to Jesus Christ they r apart of the problem. But this is the world of philosophy rubbish i hav the answers wicked enemies of GOD

Very well put.

Well posted,.

Scott Clark Voddie Bauchum should probably get the credit for his quote. But on a side note: PLEASE if you can sense the deadness of the institutional church system but can't put your finger on it. I'm literally pleading with you to understand something extremely important here. The mainstream Christian system is not of God. Rev 17:5 - "Mystery, Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots, And Abominations Of The Earth." Mystery Babylon The Great is the Vatican - “And the woman which thou sawest, is that great Citie which reigneth ouer the kings of the earth.” - Rev 17:18 And she has harlot daughters which represent the protestant churches. And “the Abominations Of The Earth” are corrupt scriptures. And the final bible that will unite all faiths is called Wormwood/the Abomination of desolation. cvillebiblebaptist.com/AdultEducation/Vatican%20and%20United%20Nations%20Bible.pdf And Jesus Christ is calling His people out. Rev 18:4 “And I heard another voice from heauen, saying, Come out of her, my people, that yee be not partakers of her sinnes, and that yee receiue not of her plagues:” The very first thing you need to understand is that GOD CAN BE TRUSTED to preserve His word for every generation forever as He promises us in Psalms 12:6-7 and you don’t need men to teach you. 1 John 2:27 “But the anointing which ye haue receiued of him, abideth in you: and yee need not that any man teach you: But, as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is trueth, and is no lye: and euen as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.” It’s vital to know, especially right now, that God has kept His word in tact. There is still an every word testimony with us! The following clip by Reg Block is what the Lord used to open my eyes to the truth of Gods promises in Mark 13:31, Psalm 12:6-7, Psalms 138:2, and Matt 4:4 and so on. It’s not more lifeless information. It is powerful and life changing and I’m grateful for it! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tAMOquyQu-8.html The next video is a lesson by John Doerr on the pure word of God in the English language, which is found in the av1611 kjv. This is a much different testimony than the King James bible you are able to easily find in the churches and the so called "Christian bookstores". Please pray and genuinely take this before the Lord. He will show you. (Prepare to be attacked once you start down this path) The devil and his ministers don’t want this going out. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-C9lIWdQ0rc0.html I prayed a long time to know what the truth was, because over the years I grew increasingly confused, frustrated, misguided and so on.. But like most of us, I kept returning to church Sunday after next hoping something would change. If I sang more, prayed harder, got more involved, etc, ...maybe something would give. But nothing ever did. I must have walked a thousand isles. It had gotten to a point where a friend at the time said, “just try and sing". He meant well, but it was always disingenuous so I never did. Long story short - my whole Christian life was that way until recently. (powerless) God has since opened my eyes and I trust Him implicitly like never before. I really hope this reaches somebody. If this is you... honestly, please look into what I’m saying. God is rich in mercy and His patience is unmatched. He's been drawing me for a long time. Maybe He’s drawing you too and this is the message you needed. This link is a series of interviews between Reg Block and John Doerr that go in depth regarding Johns trip to England for the purposes of co-producing three films: A lamp in the dark, Tares among the wheat and A bridge to babylon. The three films (free to watch), cover the history of the bible. More specifically the preservation of Gods word and the measures that have been taken to cast doubt on, and ultimately destroy it. (it's a treasure of information for the Saints) - find the first interview to start on. ru-vid.com/show-UCIfGUbjTsGu1dfoNqYUZzmgvideos here is one very final clip on the "servants of Lucifer" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DuVTlYYos0c.html "(if it were possible,) they shall deceiue the very elect.” It’s imperative to understand that the av1611 is much different than the 1769 KJV that most believe is the true 1611 but is not. The KJV only movement doesn’t use the authorized version of 1611 either. This is the bible that Rome has been trying to destroy and cast doubt on since its inception. Everything, from the gun powder plot to false rumours of King James being gay. It contains all the prophecies in tact. Things like, what is the mark of the beast, what is wormwood, who and what is Antichrist, who are Leviathan and Behemoth representations of, and so on. If the scriptures are broken, the prophets are killed and the church can’t hear what the Spirit is saying. freely ye haue receiued, freely giue.” Matt 10:8

@@chuckkady7282 True that Nixon did some remarkable things but they did not make up for the evil of his actions. It is not unusual to pardon a president since it is a stain on history.

@@jaridavis2987 WoW! you got the wrong interpretation out of my brief message about Nixon. He was as corrupt and autocratic as the dictatorship he was founding! Look up the Illuminati on RU-vid.

Also: The last book of the "New Testament" describes the rise of The New World order and is totally interpreted by Hay Lyndsey in his Book published in 1973 named "The Late Great Planet Earth" Communism = Dictatorship of the planet Earth: I hope this helps. :o)
