    [​IMG]Committed conservatives understand that the American left has long depended on lies, propaganda, and false claims of moderation to advance its grip on power. In a speech last month at a Heritage Foundation event, former President Donald Trump took a moment to analyze this phenomenon. “The only way the radical left has ever gained power in this country,” Trump said, is not through honest attempts to persuade the American people, but rather, according to the former president, through “deception and deceit.”

    “For decades,” he went on, “they lied to the American people about what they really believe. They lied about what policies they would pursue. They flooded the airwaves with biased coverage. They fabricated hoaxes and pushed fake news…They mutilated our history. They took over our schools. They rewrote our Constitution with left-wing judges, and… they stole our elections.”

    For conservatives who often find themselves reeling at the left’s seemingly total dominance of the commanding heights of American life, Trump offered a useful reminder. Generally speaking, that dominance was not honestly earned, and the American people were never really persuaded.

    There is perhaps no greater example of the success of the left’s “deception and deceit” than their eagerness to treat the Constitution as a “living” document with no fixed meaning and onto which they can freely impose their own policy preferences. Over the last 50 years, the interpretive methodology of so-called “living constitutionalism” has yielded a number of high-profile decisions that, regardless of one’s policy preferences, plainly have no basis in the text of the Constitution and never earned majority support through a democratic process.

    The news that the Supreme Court may be prepared to overturn Roe v. Wadeprompted many reflections on the legal incoherence of the original decision, something that even left-leaning scholars readily acknowledge. (Outspokenly liberal constitutional scholar Laurence Tribe, for instance, has claimed that “behind [Roe’s] own verbal smokescreen, the substantive judgment on which it rests is nowhere to be found.”) But the uproar in the wake of the court leak also serves as a reminder that American culture has been drastically transformed by what was always nothing more than a bad-faith liberal power-grab.….

    Trump is exactly right about what he said. The far progressive left has taken over far too much of the key areas of society and communication. They are lying and trying to rewrite the constitution and our history. Trumps ideas about how to confront this and combat the bicoastal secular progressive elites are good.
