As much fun as the collective meltdowns from the left have been in the aftermath of Donald Trump's landslide election victory on November 5 -- the screaming, the shaved heads, the blue tattoos, all of the celebrities and journos fleeing Twitter for some place called 'Bluesky' -- what might be even more entertaining is how confused they all are about how they could have lost so resoundingly.
One of my favorite reality deniers on the left is Gen Z, D.C.-based Democrat strategist Ally Sammarco. If you are unsure who she is, the job description 'professional rake-stepper on Twitter' describes her pretty well.
Sammarco has made some brilliant observations about Kamala Harris's epic loss, like her certainty that Harris would have won if she had been a white man and her assurance that Americans are just too dumb to appreciate Harris's nuanced speech.
Last night, Sammarco was at it again with a tweet that perfectly epitomizes the left in America:
I’ll never understand this as long as I live https://t.co/Ii1eoNkWmK
— Ally Sammarco (@Ally_Sammarco) November 17, 2024
Oh, I know you won't, Ally. We ALL know you won't.

And, frankly, I am perfectly happy with you never understanding it.
There were a few people, however, who tried to make it make sense for Sammarco. (And by 'a few,' I mean thousands.)
Do you think boys need tampons? Do you think BLM should have been permitted to burn, loot, and riot with ZERO consequences? Well, most Americans don’t, but Tampon Tim Walz does, therefore, he is unrelatable. https://t.co/dSYamlI2v0

I was reliably told that live-streaming a mean pick-six in Madden with AOC was the key to winning over male voters.

Turns out, just being dudes does the trick.pic.twitter.com/g7eRUsA7G0
Let me clear it up, Trump is who he is and he owns it. Walz is a commie posing as a likable midwestern dad.

And there it is.
Democrats love to play the class warfare game (almost as much as they love to play the racism game) so they automatically think everyone should hate rich people.
Americans do not, in point of fact, hate rich people. And having a lot of money doesn't automatically make someone 'unrelatable.'
Trump relates to so many millions of people because he meets us where we are. And enjoys it. He doesn't preach to us from Mar-a-Lago about how we should be 'better.' And for all of his flaws, Trump never pretends to be anything that he isn't. He gives you his genuine personality and says, 'Take it or leave it.'
Seventy-six-plus million Americans just voted to take it.
Authenticity, it turns out, matters. And people appreciate it (especially since it seems to be such a rare commodity within the political class).
In contrast, everything about Tim Walz was staged and phony -- including that cat photo. And Americans can spot that pretty easily. From his lies about his military service to his weird dancing and jazz hands on stage to even his pretending to know the first thing about football, his entire persona screamed sham.
And that goes double for Harris with her fake, code-switching accents and her 'brat summer.'
Democrats like Sammarco will read America's rejection of all of Harri's celebrity endorsements the wrong way as well. No normal, rational person rejects Bruce Springsteen, Eminem, Queen Latifah, or Oprah Winfrey because they are rich. Hell, more power to them.
No, we reject them because they think they know better than us -- they think they ARE better than us -- and they think they can scold us into voting the way they want us to.
Yeah ... how's that working out for them?
Meanwhile, Trump went to work at McDonald's for a day. Trump embraced Joe Biden calling him and his supporters 'garbage.' Trump goes to UFC fights and (as he showed in his conversation with Joe Rogan) knows the fight game.
What's more, he had FUN, genuine fun, while he did all of that.
That is what people relate to, not how many billions of dollars Trump has or how opulent his homes may be.
Democrats like Sammarco are so trapped within their leftist echo chambers -- insulated bubbles where they still believe that Americans' first tendency is to hate anyone unlike us -- that she is correct: she (and they) will never understand it.

That is the correct response. When the left is making mistakes, never interrupt them.
And even though I tried to explain here why she is so wrong, I know that Ally Sammarco will never read this. And if someone did show it to her, she would simply dismiss it because I am a conservative and someone who she never has to listen to.
But if I ever met her in person? I wouldn't tell her how wrong she is. Nope. I would tell her she is absolutely correct and just hand her another shovel.
'You nailed it, Ally.'
'You have your finger on the pulse, Ally.'
'Keep going, Ally.'
'You're doing great, Ally.'
Mum's the word, conservatives. No one else help her out either.
Just smile and nod approvingly as Democrats continue to misread America and Americans as badly as anyone possibly could.
