The Trump Victory

The Defining Moment in POTUS 2024 Elections
Enough and more is being debated and discussed about the victory of Donald Trump in the USA Presidential elections. Here is my take on the issue.

Before the elections, one felt that Trump had a chance but given his unpredictable behaviour, was most likely to lose. Further, it was obvious that the left socialist deep state did not want him in the White House. The popular expectation was that the deep state would use the election system to legally rig the vote in favour of the democrats. With Joe Biden as the opponent, his chances were optimistic.

Then suddenly Joe Biden nominated Kamala Harris in his place and walked away into the sunset. At that time – she had everything that was perfect based on what we heard/read – Black, Woman, Active proponent of LGBTQ, Abortion etc. Soon the Hollywood glitterati and Silicon Valley corporate honchos officially endorsed her. Given the long line up of big names, a very partial list here, her winning was a foregone conclusion.

Then, one split second, one bullet, one tiny shake of the head – and the elections suddenly became open. The deep state obviously knew something that the hoi polloi did not know. The foregone winner Kamala was very vulnerable, and someone needed to take out Trump – permanently – if she was to win.


The Secret Service which is supposed to guard the POTUS candidates seemed to be doing such an amateur job that they had snipers everywhere, on every roof except on the roof where the assassin lay waiting. At that distance, less than 140 mtrs, even a rookie shooter could not have missed. In sniper parlance a 300 mtrs shot is easy, even a police sniper is trained at 100 mtrs. Worse, the town Butler has a population of hardly 13,000 people and local folks alerted the security folks about seeing a man with a gun, which was ignored.

But wait it gets worse. The killer as mentioned by some was apparently found with 6 phones (supposedly Apple phones) and even though reports suggest that the phone was broken into, others who should know have emphatically said that this is not the case. Whatever the truth, the public still has no feedback on the assassination attempt.

It now gets even worse. As if this incident wasn’t enough, there was a second and a Third attempt to kill Trump. One is a conspiracy theory, Two is a Coincidence, Three is a conspiracy fact. 

With the second attempt the poll was not just wide open, but every American citizen was now watching and reading every single development. Their primal instincts were on top and this assassination attempt was too early in the game - 4 months early.

Politicians and their deep state handlers globally make one cardinal mistake – they always assume that the people are stupid. This impression gets reinforced when there is neither some compelling issue in front of the voters nor a compelling motivation to read, gossip and analyse incidents around the elections, its candidates. When the system lives in a echo chamber they are finished. 

That a nation, which put a man on the moon 55 yrs ago, has had Playboy since 1953, Penthouse since 1965, but in 2024 apparently had as its most important and concerning agenda – Abortion – was beyond all logic. Anybody asking this question was vilified. No doubt this is a very important issue, but was it central to a nation involved in wars, poor economy, jobs, etc where everything else was excluded?

The next issue was about LGBTQ and all one had to do was say – "I think I am a woman" – and presto the whole world must accept it and give them access to ladies’ toilets, locker rooms, sports, prisons etc. Never mind that the chap was in prison for brutal rape, he is now in a woman’s prison, because he thinks he is a woman. Nobody asked, why, not one woman had declared – I think I am a man. To talk of preventing discrimination, creating opportunity is one thing – but to convert this issue into an aspirational goal was quite another. Only a leftist liberal mind could think of this. Parents finding themselves kept out decisions that involved their children and their sexual identity/ transformations/ surgeries, woman finding themselves competing with men in sports and all those horrifying crimes by men calling themselves as woman – churned up the bile in a large segment of society.
In between, the American media, university campuses, with Democrats leading or cheering, went on a Pro Palestine rally spree and silenced any voice that seemed to disagree. During Covid, the level of censorship was astounding in a nation that probably invented free speech.

As if all these didn’t brew up a broth – the Democrats who fancy themselves as savior's of the poor, the labour and working class, being socialistic – had the rich and famous millionaires, billionaires, opulent living celebrities, jet setting socialites, jumping all over - endorsing Kamala. The irony am sure wasn’t lost on the working class.

To complete the circle of woes – Democrats could not find anyone other than Kamala to contest. Without judging her by the memes, just listening to her various speeches, interviews were enough to say that her articulation of issues, ability to answer pointed questions was poor for someone aspiring to be POTUS.

The average American, be it of whatever colour is no different from humans elsewhere. USA was and is touted as the land of opportunity. Slowly but surely the common citizen was seeing that this wasn’t exactly true. As I said above – the assassination attempts – meant that the people started listening to contradictory voices and they knew where to find them – on Podcasts, SM.

Earlier, people were disappointed with BOTH candidates, both options didn’t exactly excite them, they were resigned to their fate even if many felt that Kamala was the better of the two bad options served up.  Suddenly, the campaign had a twist and voters started listening to all those podcasts and other stuff and decided to come out and vote. They suddenly felt, that with Trump, they had a choice, an option – may not be the best, but at any rate a better option than Kamala. He spoke what touched their life everyday – crime, jobs, economy, freedom, opportunity, gender identification, immigration etc.
When Immigration, Economy, Inflation had 51% Americans concerned as the TOP issues, the Democrats were focusing on promoting/ protecting immigration, and other subjects which voters didn't classify as top concerns - speaks of the humungous disconnect from reality. 

Immigration Top Problem

That the Hollywood celebrities were clueless about reality, while Silicon Valley head honchos salivated at the control they wielded over humans – is an understatement. Like always it needs one mad maverick to upset the apple cart – and here it was Elon Musk with his endorsement of Trump and rest is history as they say. 

To get an understanding how the left liberal woke mind works – more than one Hollywood jet-setting celebrity has announced leaving the USA to go to one of their mansions elsewhere, where their echo-chambers work better, some 115,000 have quit the SM platform X and some others deleted their accounts.

It is tempting to imagine what could have happened if Trump had not tilted his head (reminded me of the famous book The Day of the Jackal where Gen De Gaulle escapes death in the same way). But suffice to say that providence saved him likely with a different purpose. The next 4 years will be interesting, since what we saw happening in the USA reflects a global behavior.

The left communist liberal woke secular sensing that their time had come were in a hurry to get to the finish line and world domination, but they played their hand too early, too fast, too wide and many people have seen that through. Be it the former Twitter, Meta (Facebook), Instagram, Google, NYT, WaPo, CNN, Ivy league campuses and many more, they were brutal in their cancel culture, censorship was rampant, the slightest dissident voice was scrubbed out, even logical questions were browbeaten, and the world was fast becoming a totalitarian state. 

The woke behavior reached such monstrous proportions that convicted rapists (men/transwomen) including pedophilias who were identifying themselves as woman were lodged in Woman prisons and continued their violent behavior.

Their tendency to control humanity by redefining everything under the sun became a tad too obvious. The voting in countries like Italy, Finland, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Netherlands and the Czech Republic have turned right. France is still holding on, but the tide is slowly turning. USA just turned but will the momentum keep after 4 years is a question. In the meantime, nations with a history of conquests like UK, Germany are sliding down rapidly caught in their own guilt of the past.

Nett zero may be the popular goal for 2030 to 2050 but how many of these nations will even survive in the form and fashion they are currently, is the bigger question. 

In conclusion a very unpopular opinion – however much Trump deserves credit for his grit, determination, focus, hard work to stay the course post 2020 and win 2024, he had God/luck by his side and the Democrats (including the Obama’s) deserve equal credit for his victory. They worked harder than Trump to ensure his victory.

Bill Maher summed it up best when he said - "Democrats have become like a royal family, that because of so much incest, has unfortunately had children who are retarded. And the same thing can happen to ideas, if they are also conceived in an atmosphere of intellectual incest. You just lost a crazy contest to an actual crazy person,"

Balanced view though leaning more towards right with a hint of favoritism for Trump. I would would say election result is an ‘Elon effect’ rather than Biden’s policies or Trump’s fascist ideology.

Thanks. Firstly - In my blog talking about the Israel Hamas War from Oct23 I said thus - "Hamas a designated terrorist organisation launched a brilliant and well-planned attack on Israel during a holiday.". I called their attack brilliant & will extend that to say they demonstrated brilliant planning, implementation & intelligence that needs the highest applause purely as a demonstrated action. That does NOT make me a supporter of Hamas. Similarly, this was an analysis of Trump and his victory, and needs to be seen as such.

The Iranian Conundrum

The middle east is a conundrum of gigantic proportions ridden by conflict, contradiction and wealth. Historically the crusades, a war between Christians and Muslims, was to gain control over the epicentre, Jerusalem as the target. That war ended in 1291, but much later Britain and France took control over much of Middle east till after World War 2. Most nations in the middle east gained independence post 1930’s. 1930s-1940s: Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Israel 1950s: Libya, Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia Post 1960s: Kuwait, South Yemen, UAE While WW2 pushed Britain and France to cede control, my surmise is the western nations understood the importance of the oil wealth in that area, and continued to exert influence. The predominantly Christian post WW2 west leveraged the inherent contradictions within the Muslim ideology.  In the middle east, Saudi Arabia followed by Iran are the largest in terms of size, making them tougher to control. Post WW2, the western nations gained ...

Random Musings - November 2025

Women in Blue:   If Kapil’s devils in 1983 created history to win the Men’s cricket world cup, the Harmanpreet’s angels did so in 2025 winning the Women’s cricket world cup. Watching the match was a treat and a welcome change. The sheer energy the girls had was palpably visible. When a bowler started her run up, seeing the girls especially at covers, mid off and point crouch like tigers ready to spring was sheer poetry. They reminded me of Pataudi and Brijesh Patel. The fielding of the team was excellent. Some of the girls when batting really hit powerful sixes and the sheer confidence they exuded by just standing and watching the ball cross the fence was sublime. What was really heart warming was the crowd turnout as the match finished only around midnight. The DY Patil stadium with a capacity of over 45,000 was packed to the gills and the support our women in blue got was unbelievable. I don’t think the girls expected a full house crowd cheering them and this response should mo...

Letter I received from AAP and My response....

This is the email I got and my response is below. Of course AAP has neither acknowledged my mail nor do I expect them to since you see they are god, perfection rolled into one. From:  Aam Aadmi Party To:  Ravindra Vasisht <................>  Sent:  Wednesday, 2 April 2014 9:53 PM Subject:  Why did Arvind Kejriwal resign? Dear Ravindra Vasisht As an Aam Aadmi Party supporter, you must have been asked a hundred times, why Arvind Kejriwal resigned as the Delhi Chief Minister? Well, here is the answer. AAP got  only 28 of 70 seats  in the Delhi Assembly election. Still, the Lt Governor invited Arvind to form the government, as the Congress (with 8 seats) had offered unconditional support. Finding it hard to believe, Arvind sent a letter to the Congress President listing out the 18 points in the AAP manifesto, including passing of the Jan Lokpal bill. The Congress reverted saying it will support AAP unconditionally ...
