The liberal media circus has pulled out all the stops, trying to liken Donald Trump’s recent rally at Madison Square Garden to some historical event that no one wants to be associated with. The truth is, however, that this rally was far from a dark chapter in history; it was a vibrant display of American patriotism and enthusiasm. While the elites in Hollywood and their friends in the press declared Trump to be a total villain, anyone who was actually there could tell you it felt like a raucous celebration of freedom and hope.
Currently, as the clock ticks down to the next election, Trump’s surge appears unstoppable, but then again, so did the enthusiasm for back-to-school shopping last August—until people actually had to spend money. Recent polling shows that Trump’s momentum is primarily due to what he represents: an end to political correctness and a commitment to putting America first. His supporters resonate with an optimistic vision of the country that contrasts sharply with the bleak and depressing dystopia the Democrats seem to be selling.
Trump’s 4th Quarter Momentum Seems Stronger Than Harris’s, But There’s One Small Downside https://t.co/C3GzBCjJPL

However, no Trump rally or trending poll comes without its own potholes. For one, the GOP nominee faces potential pitfalls rooted in the same media machine that’s always ready to do a hatchet job on him. Despite the rally’s electric atmosphere, Trump’s opponents are busy crafting narratives that could undercut him. They may claim he’s a relic or an extremist, but in reality, they are just terrified of the impact his movement has had on folks across the nation, particularly among those who have felt abandoned by establishment politics.
Kamala Harris, on the other hand, is grasping for any semblance of viability amid rising GOP enthusiasm. Trump leads her in numerous battleground states, even in territories historically unfriendly to Republicans. What seems clearer by the moment is that Harris has become the personification of “What Not to Do” in a political campaign while simultaneously providing a cornucopia of material for comedians and late-night shows. The notion that she could ever match, let alone exceed, Trump’s popularity is more of a daydream—one perhaps fueled by a few too many espresso shots.
In the end, the political landscape looks increasingly favorable for Trump heading into the fourth quarter of his candidacy. However, amid all the enthusiasm and rally chants, a cautious eye remains necessary. Trump’s surge may look good now, but, as the old adage goes, the road to November can be paved with unexpected potholes, especially when attempting to navigate the minefields laid by Democrats and their media allies. If nothing else, it appears clear that the race is gearing up to be more entertaining than ever, as the country watches to see who ducks and dodges best during this political free-for-all.
