The recent antics of University of Virginia professor Larry Sabato reveal how far some have fallen into the pit of leftist absurdity. Once a voice of reason in political analysis, Sabato now finds himself reciting the same tired tropes as the radical left, who seem to have collectively lost their grip on reality. The mere mention of Donald Trump is enough to send otherwise reasonable people spiraling into a frenzy of unfounded accusations and absurd comparisons.
In a miserable moment during a discussion surrounding Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden, Sabato invoked the infamous 1939 pro-Nazi rally that took place in the same venue. He lamented the “parallels,” equating a Trump rally with a rally that celebrated the vile ideology of Hitler. This rhetoric may bring applause from the crowd of pink-haired protesters on campus, but it does nothing to advance a severe conversation about politics. The left has found a new favorite game: associate Trump with Nazis to deflect from their failing candidates and train wreck of a political strategy.

Of course, the media and Democrats loved Sabato’s remarks, seizing upon them as a reason to unleash a tsunami of anger about Trump’s “racist, sexist, and crass” messaging. They love to dissect every utterance from Trump’s events, hoping to find some brief moment they can weaponize against him. But here’s the kicker: while leftist commentators foam at the mouth, they completely miss the mark, operating under the bizarre assumption that a few slogans and some outrage will sway the electorate away from Trump’s message. That strategy seems more desperate than adequate as Americans grow exhausted by the shallow accusations.
No one is more keen to point out the absurdity of the left than Ben Shapiro, who astutely criticized the nonsensical parallels drawn between these rallies. One can imagine the sheer discomfort among Democrats as they spin their narratives, desperately trying to convince the world that a gathering of Trump supporters could in any way resemble a Nazi rally. Shapiro’s satirical observations highlight the stark reality that Trump’s events attract a diverse crowd, including many individuals of Jewish descent who honor their heritage and support the president. The left’s narrative crumbles under the weight of its ridiculousness.
As the midterm elections loom, the Democrat Party seems to be losing its grasp on viable messaging. Despite the absurdities they perpetuate, they keep doubling down, hoping to command attention and propaganda through outrageous claims. Meanwhile, average Americans see the reality: they cannot rewrite history to fit their present-day grievances. The irony is pronounced—those rampant accusations of anti-Semitism are more reflective of their party than Trump’s.
It is alarmingly easy to debunk the wild claims made by the left. Yet, it seems they will continue their dramatic rants about Trump for as long as they can, convinced that painting him as a fascist will gain traction among an increasingly disinterested electorate. The natural remedy to their tirades? Votes. It remains crucial for conservatives to rally and prove at the ballot box just how misguided the left’s attacks truly are. It is essential to counteract this barrage with strength and resolve.
