Americas bipartisan hatefest is doing China and Russias dirty work for free

This wasn’t just an election; it was a metaphor.A metaphor for a political system spinning out of control.

A metaphor for a nation that has the strongest economy in the world, and the most dynamic private sector, but a political class who have lost their minds.Look at the insanity of the ads, a record $11.21 billion spent on innuendo, deceit and defilement.Look at Decoy Dan.

Look at Vivek Ramaswamy’s deployment of the mother of an opponent who was abused as a child.This isn’t about who is worse, Democrats or Republicans.It’s about a great nation being dragged from its ethical moorings by the excesses of one side feeding the excesses of the other in a bizarre waltz that will astound future historians.And this isn’t just about ads but policy, too.

I mean, look at how every election over the last decade and more has been a vote not for anything constructive but against whatever lunacy has been enacted in the asylum called Washington.We had the woke overreach of the Dems in which biological men became women, leading to the first MAGA wave of Trump — a president who later denied the result of a free election and pardoned those who assaulted law-enforcement officers.The Democrats under Biden thought the best way to deal with this lurch was to throw open the borders, a position supported by nobody except those whose minds have been deranged by progressive ideology.This, in turn, created the conditions for Trump 2.0: a tariff-hiking, Iran-invading, crony-enriching spasm — which has now birthed perhaps the most radical Democratic slate in history.Newton said that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.American politics is offering a new twist: for every insanity there is an ever more extremist version on the other side.I have no doubt that social media sits near the epicenter of this dynamic, even if not explaining it fully.

The mathematical structure of these algorithms mirrors almost perfectly the gyrating psychosis in American politics....
