Everyone’s angry with Donald Trump.

It’s true that things are getting ragged with just over five months left until the midterms. The president’s agenda is being stymied in the courts and in Congress by bloody-minded Democrat obstructionism, and by a handful of lily-livered naysayers in his own bare-majority party.

His poll numbers are as bad as they’ve ever been, apart from a rough patch in the aftermath of Jan. 6, 2021.

The war with Iran has hit gas prices and exacerbated the cost of living. It may be heading to some sort of deal, but cheerleaders are thin on the ground. His enemies at home are desperate for Trump to fail, even if it means America is dealt a savage blow.

Poor alternatives

His administration’s botched handling of the so-called “lawfare” slush fund is one of several own goals that his media foes and their Machiavellian whisperers have twisted into fake existential catastrophes to demoralize his supporters.

Under inhuman pressure, he has a tendency to talk too much, and his sclerotic lashing out at blameless bystanders endears him to nobody.

The other day, he scolded popular Fox News reporter Jacqui Heinrich apropos of nothing, during a press conference, because she is engaged to a Republican congressman, Brian Fitzpatrick, who breaks with Trump more than most — but that’s because he has to hold on to a purple suburban Philadelphia district full of Trump-deranged wine moms, and why is that Heinrich’s fault?

None of this is good.

But — and this is a big but — don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

Or to paraphrase Joe Biden: Don’t compare Trump to the Almighty. Compare him to the alternative.

Wherever you look in the Democratic Party, the alternative is horrendous.

Exhibit A: Graham Platner, the Dems’ hard-left Senate candidate in Maine who cosplays a rugged working-class oyster farmer. He has been given the superstar treatment by the likes of The New York Times and Time in airbrushed cover stories praising him as “rough-hewn, gravelly voiced . . . flawed everyman” whose numerous scandals — sporting a Nazi tattoo for 18 years, excusing rape, masturbating in porta-potties, mocking a Purple Heart recipient — are proof of his authenticity and “redemption arc.”

Dem disasters

The fawning free publicity helped catapult him ahead of Maine Gov. Janet Mills, who has dropped out of the race before the primary.

Platner wears his hyper masculinity like a fat suit. It’s hiding something he doesn’t want us to see. Everything about him is a concoction: the gravelly voice, the boots, flannel costumes, even the offensive tattoos. He and JD Vance are the same age — 41 — and both are former Marines.

But in the quality of their character, they are exact opposites.

One was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and grew up into a spoiled, destructive narcissist who joined the Marines, got a Nazi tattoo, didn’t get married until he was 40 and has never had children — although in fairness, that shouldn’t be held against him, since various soft soap articles say he and his wife went through IVF treatment in Norway earlier this year.

The other man was born to a single mother with a heroin addiction, joined the Marines, went to Yale on sheer brainpower, married well, gave up a lucrative tech career to go into politics and rose to become vice president while bringing up three children, with one on the way. Vance is a contemplative man of faith who has overcome his hard-scrabble beginnings. Platner is a punch-drunk poseur who squandered the privileges he was granted at birth.

But Platner is just one of the Democrat disasters waiting in the wings to ruin this country if Republican voters lose heart.

Take Texas Senate Democratic candidate James Talarico, who believes there are “six genders” and that God is “non-binary.”

Then there’s Texas Democrat congressional candidate Maureen Galindo, the sex therapist who wants to lock up “Zionists” in detention camps.

Or leading Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, who campaigns with vile dog-torturing Marxist twitch-streamer Hasan Piker and was caught telling staffers to avoid commenting on the death of Ayatollah Khamenei because Dearborn voters were upset about it.

Dog torturer embraced

Speaking of Piker, another repellent nepo baby progressive who thinks America deserved 9/11 and Israel is worse than Hamas, he has been embraced by the new Democrat establishment. His third glowing New York Times profile recently lauded him as “A Progressive Mind in a Body Made for the ‘Manosphere,” while giving him a free pass for using a shock collar to inflict excruciating pain on his poor dog in the middle of a live stream.

He denied it, but you only have to watch the video to know he’s lying.

This new crop of Democrats makes AOC look like a moderate. The next thing we know, Hunter Biden will be running for president.

Even the old crop is horrible, as we all should know after enduring four years of “moderate Joe” Biden.

Kamala Harris summed up the zeitgeist last week.

“This is a moment when there are no bad ideas,” the former vice president declared on a podcast, before reaching into the old progressive grab bag of stacking the Supreme Court and granting statehood to Puerto Rico and DC.

As in 2020, when Trump unnerved the country with daily COVID press conferences alongside the sly Anthony Fauci, be careful what you wish for.
