Why Kamala Harris Cannot Be President (A Nigerian Perspective)
By: Deji Yesufu
On 13th July 2024, former President Donald Trump was at Butler, Pennsylvania to campaign towards his re-election bid come November, when he was nearly assassinated. Even without any inquiries into what had happened, it was clear that the American Secret Service, the body in charge of keeping security that day, had bungled many things. First, why were there so many women on the security team that day? How did an assassin climb the roof of a building so close to the stage where Trump was to speak? How did this person get into the venue with arms and nobody could tell? What about the fact that people saw this guy climbing the roof, and were pointing it out to the security, yet nothing was done until the first shot rang out? So many questions stood unanswered until the investigations began.
For whatever reason best known to Joe Biden, he appointed Kimberly Cheatle, a woman, in September 2022, to head the Secret Service. The woman is a paragon of leftist ideologies, filled with the deepest woke worldview. Her first mission was to fill the Secret Service with women – “what a man can do, a woman can do better…” nonsense was what nearly killed Trump that July afternoon. The whole incompetence of the security team was glaring to the world. If a 20-year-old could breach the security of America so easily, nations like Russia or China would humble the United States if they ever tried such an American leader. What I have just recounted is one reason Kamala Harris cannot be president of the United States of America.
You will wonder: what business do Nigerians have with American life and politics? I think the answer is everything. Besides the fact that America is the biggest sponsor of gospel preaching all around the world, that nation also provides our world with some stability. Many crises have been stalled because the powers that be fear what America might do to them. So, if America ends up with an incompetent leader, the world will suffer for it. It became increasingly obvious to me that I needed to write on the dangers of having a Harris presidency when I realized that many news outlets in Nigeria are consuming CNN’s lies, woke propaganda and leftist ideologies. I was shocked when I saw even Rufai Useni hoping for a Kamala Harris win in the coming elections. Is it that these people do not understand the dangers of a Democratic Party presidency? Rufai will claim that a Democratic presidency will always be better than a Donald Trump government. People like Rufai Useni will argue that Trump is always bad news at the leadership level in America. For them, Kamala Harris is a lesser evil. I disagree.
You should then ask: what is wrong with the Democratic Party? To understand what is wrong with these people, we will have to go back a few centuries. Once upon a time, the Western world was under the powers of a religious leader: The Pope. The invention of the printing press revolutionized thinking and ideas. One of the offshoots of this was the Protestant revolution of the 16th century. The Protestants were the first liberal and progressive thinkers. The problem, however, is that the moment progressivism starts, there is no end to it. So, after five centuries of the invention of the printing press, progressivism and liberal ideologies continue to progress – without an end in view. Today, men are becoming women, and women are turning into men. Our society is regarded as a post-religious society.
Besides the laws of the land, people do not have a conscience of keeping the laws of any religious book. Christianity is frowned at as antediluvian. There appears to be a war against anything Christian, Christ, or God. The one party that upholds all of these ideas is the Democratic Party of the United States of America. If and when Kamala Harris comes to power, all of these ideals will come to complete fruition. There will be other developments too. American children will begin to claim to be cats and dogs and will be requesting to be taken to the vet rather than to hospitals. The American military, which at one time was the best and the most feared anywhere in the world, will be replete with women claiming to be men, while the men are shipped off as women. America will go to war with countries that still hold to basic traditional values of life and religion, and be thoroughly vanquished. Those who have predicted the defeat of America did not need a soothsayer to tell them; a little observing of where the American society is today will tell you more of where she is headed.
The only thing that can stop these woes from coming to America (or maybe delay it) is if Kamala Harris does not become the president of America. The bad news is that since her installation as the Democratic Party flag bearer (she was never elected but selected), her popularity has been rising. A people deserve the kind of leaders they support, and because most of America is today given off to woke madness, Harris is God’s judgement on them. There remains, however, that little hope that she will not win the coming elections. A lot of Americans are waking up to realize that woke worldviews are destroying their nation. They all stood by as a complete 20-year-old novice shot President Trump’s head, narrowly missing the former president’s head by an inch. If Trump had been killed, America would have plunged into sustained civil war. This was the kind of thing that happened that precipitated the First World War and left the world with close to fifty million people dead – both civilian and combatant.
America is today polarized between a nation that believes that certain traditional values, especially religious, should still be preserved, and those who think everything should be overthrown. Donald Trump is not a saint. But he represents a party that still believes in some basic conservative values – values that have made America what it is today. America is known for excellence. Kamala Harris and her cohort will bring that country to the dregs – and nothing better depicts this than the sham that occurred around the near assassination attempt on Donald Trump’s life in July.
