(DCNF)—Victor Davis Hanson said Monday on Fox News that former President Donald Trump “terrifies” the “out-of-touch wealthy elite” because they lack compassion and understanding of the average American’s concerns.
Hanson argued that Trump has redefined the Republican Party by recasting it as a coalition of upper-middle and lower-middle class citizens, leaving both traditional Republicans and Democrats scrambling to respond. Hanson reflected on Trump’s ability to energize his base by shifting the GOP’s focus from the elite class to a broad cross-section of American workers.
“Trump is really saying you’re right about FDR. He said the only thing you have to fear is fear itself. There’s no limitation on what we can do. We can secure the border. Don’t worry about being ostracized or doxed or criticized or called all these names,” Hanson told Laura Ingraham. “We can reduce crime. We can refashion our foreign policy. And everything’s possible. And we’re no longer just gonna be stereotyped as a elitist party of wealthy white people and the Republicans that play golf.”
While the GOP has long been painted as the party of “wealthy white people” and golf-playing elites, Hanson says Trump has inverted this image by replacing race with a focus on class.
“That wasn’t a fair stereotype, but that’s what it was. He’s replaced race with class. And he said we’re an upper middle and lower middle class party and everybody’s invited, and that’s why it terrifies the old, never Trump elite on the Republican side,” Hanson continued. “They don’t like that. Neither does the left. And more importantly, when he created this new movement, this new Republican party, he showed what the left has become in their anger and their fury and their frenzy.”
Hanson suggested that Trump’s populist coalition reveals the cracks in the Democratic establishment, which he characterizes as increasingly out of touch with middle-class America.

“They’re really a party of the out-of-touch wealthy elite. That’s who the Obama’s are, the Clinton’s are, the Harris’ are, the Silicon Valley people. They’re really furious about this because they’ve been shown to be emperors without any clothes,” Hanson added. “They really only care about themselves and these esoteric elite agendas that destroy the middle class, of which they have no compassion.”
Reflecting on the intense political attacks against Trump, Hanson sees this as an indication of deep-seated panic among the political elite.
“So we’re at the end of a decade-long story. The Russian collusion, Russian disinformation, lawfare, get him off the ballot, two assassination attempts,” Hanson concluded. “And what are they left with? All they’re left with is he’s Hitler. He’s a fascist, he’s a Nazi.”
Vice President Kamala Harris called former Trump a fascist last Thursday at a town hall, citing warnings from Trump’s former chief of staff, John Kelly, about the dangers of a potential second term. The Trump campaign has denied the claims.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre confirmed that President Joe Biden concurs with John Kelly’s assessment that Trump is a fascist, as reported by The New York Times. Jean-Pierre reiterated that Biden believes Trump aimed to govern as a dictator from day one.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
