that conclusively shows that the American private sector—small and large businesses, individual entrepreneurs, manufacturers and industries, and white- and blue-collar workers throughout the land—is the lifeblood of the American economy; not the public sector, which creates no wealth on its own. Conservatives will reflect with pride on the American spirit and the essential role of the private sector in ramping up production to meet government needs. They will celebrate Americans’ eagerness to reopen the economy and resume their lives as proof of their dedication to liberty and their precious constitutional rights. Though President Trump has been given little credit for this, the virus exposed America’s precarious dependence on foreign nations for necessary essentials and vindicated Trump’s long-held determination to restore America’s self-sufficiency as a manufacturing powerhouse.
    You get the point. The left is relentless in pushing their extreme agenda. They were horrifyingly committed to statism before the virus; they are even more so today. You can count on it, which makes this year’s presidential and congressional elections exponentially more important than they already were. The left has now fully unmaskeditself. The American electorate will face a clear choice in November between those who love America and want to protect it, and those who resent it and want it to become another failed socialist state. The Democrats’ media machine may try to downplay the party’s extremism, but there’s no longer any denying it, as I’ve shown throughout these pages.
    Prior to the virus, we watched Democrats and the media deny the spectacular success of the American economy under President Trump. Their message during the post-virus recovery is predictable: they’ll say the economy was a disaster waiting to happen and the virus just hastened the inevitable. Or they’ll admit that there were signs of growth but that they benefited only the rich—despite all the evidence to the contrary. But we can’t let them get away with it.
    No matter how much devastation the virus caused, it in no way erases Trump’s phenomenal economic record. Without it, we wouldn’t have been able to absorb those losses. This makes resuming his agenda even more important going forward. Just as he led the fight against the virus, he has been leading the fight to unleash our economy once again.
    President Trump knows America can recapture its economic vitality—and he leaped into action to prove it. Having fulfilled his campaign promises on economic growth and demonstrated decisive crisis leadership, hasn’t he earned our trust? Having resurrected the American economy when ill-informed economic policies had driven it into the dirt, how much more so will he lead us to recovery?
    Not only must President Trump’s economic agenda be reinvigorated, but his contagious spirit of hope and optimism is every bit as essential. His patriotism, his love for the American people, his faith in the American worker, and his unwavering belief in the free market are indispensable to America’s recovery.
    The left, of course, will portray Joe Biden as a steady hand, ready to deliver this nation from chaos, in stark contrast to the volatile and combative Trump. Biden, they’ll say, is a moderate, perfectly situated to heal our deep divisions. But as we’ve seen, Joe Biden is no moderate.He is a chameleon—willing to be whomever he needs to be and say whatever he needs to say to win votes. While wooing his party’s base, he is an untrustworthy panderer—moving further to the left with each passing moment, even if he conveniently veers back to the center as the election nears. If elected he’ll either push, or be a pawn of others who will push, a leftist agenda.
    Media propaganda aside, Biden is not a seasoned force of stability and leadership. He is a walking gaffe machine
