"‘They Lack Compassion’: Victor Davis Hanson Explains How Trump ‘Frights’ the ‘Disconnected Wealthy Elite’"

Victor Davis Hanson stated on Fox News that former President Donald Trump “terrifies” the “out-of-touch wealthy elite” because they lack compassion and fail to grasp the concerns of average Americans.

Hanson noted that Trump has reshaped the Republican Party into a coalition of upper-middle and lower-middle class citizens, leaving both traditional Republicans and Democrats struggling to adapt. He highlighted Trump’s ability to energize his supporters by shifting the GOP’s focus from the elite to a diverse array of American workers.

“Trump is echoing FDR, who said the only thing we have to fear is fear itself. There are no limits to what we can achieve. We can secure the border without worrying about being ostracized or criticized,” Hanson told Laura Ingraham. “We can reduce crime and reshape our foreign policy. Everything is possible, and we will no longer be seen as an elitist party of wealthy white people who just play golf.”
