Donald Trump won big on Election Night.
The wailing and gnashing of teeth have already begun among Democrats.
And an Ivy League think tank made one shocking confession about Trump’s election.
Democrats don’t really care about democracy
Democrats are attempting a repeat of 2016.
After Donald Trump’s victory over Hillary Clinton, the Democrats decided to launch #TheResistance, as if they were living in Vichy France or some lunacy.
Democrats decided that everything had to become political.
That’s why Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) and others on the Left encouraged their constituents to get in the face of Trump associates and “push back on them” in public.
Institutions like The New York Times and The Washington Post, where “democracy dies in darkness,” had to drop any pretense of impartiality and use their resources to stop Trump.
In 2024, they’re trying to do it again.
That’s why the President of the Student Advisory Committee of Harvard’s Institute of Politics (IOP) wrote an op-ed claiming that Trump’s election meant that it was too dangerous to be nonpartisan.
Pratyush Mallick wrote a piece titled: “I’m the IOP’s President. With Trump’s Election, We Can No Longer Be Nonpartisan.”
The Left’s mask has slipped
This type of headline was all the rage in 2016.
The beauty of these pieces is that they expose which institutions have been hollowed out by left-wing ideologues.
They have always been leftists, but now they’re just coming out and saying it.
Mallick argued, “On Tuesday, America made a choice. But nearly 70 million Americans did not vote for election denialism, violence against their compatriots, or the elimination of basic human rights. Today, Harvard’s Institute of Politics has a choice to make too. In my personal view, nonpartisanship — a founding principle of the IOP — is no longer a tenable position in today’s political environment. Donald Trump’s imminent return to power underscores the importance of the IOP finally breaking from our long-standing commitment to it.”
So Trump is such an existential threat—even though he was already President—that the IOP must destroy its credibility and foundational ethos.
Mallick continued, “The essence of democracy lies not just in constituents casting votes but also in candidates respecting the results of these votes. The IOP cannot ignore the reality that, as it stands, one party’s leadership actively betrays these democratic processes. True bipartisanship — and healthy nonpartisanship — is only possible when both sides of the aisle share a basic commitment to our country’s norms. Trump and his supporters have demonstrated that such a commitment can no longer be assumed.”
So democracy is only sacred when the Democrats win.
Former IOP fellow Sarah Isgur, who’s an editor at the neocon outlet The Dispatch, remarked on Bill Maher’s show that the IOP might have opened itself up to lawsuits with this op-ed.
She also called out the insanity of claiming to defend democracy by ignoring the results of the democratic process.
“Commitment to democracy over commitment to nonpartisanship” by refusing to bring speakers from the party that gained power via the democratic process. 🤔 https://t.co/qyTnmPfzxp

This is just the beginning.
Trump isn’t even back in the White House yet.
Democrats are only going to get more and more unhinged as time goes by.
