I didn’t realize that Hulk Hogan had launched into a second career as a political prognosticator, but we can suppose his estimations are as good as anyone else’s at this point – although you’ll forgive me if I place more stock in someone like, say, Dr. Victor Davis Hanson.

The wrestling icon made a major splash when he spoke at the Republican National Convention, in which he endorsed the former president to “let Trumpamania run again.” Since then, Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, has been traveling across the country to promote his new beer brand, and has discovered through his travels that “everybody’s for Trump.”
“So I hear what you’re saying about the polls, and it’s even-Steven, and it might be a close call, but let me tell you something, I don’t believe the polls,” Hogan said on Fox News’s One Nation with Brian Kilmeade. “It’s going to be a landslide. Too big to rig, brother, is the theme here, and at the end of the day, all of America wants to get back to America. Not the way it used to be, but the way it should be, brother.”
Well, there’s just one thing wrong with that argument: not all of America wants to “get back” to America. The wealthy coastal elites, the ivory-tower academics, the government employees unions, the dependency classes – they would prefer not to go back to an America that was a paragon of individual liberty and personal achievement. But I think Hogan has a point; plenty of us would like to “get back to America,” even if it’s just an America of four years ago.
I wouldn’t mind $2 for a gallon of gasoline again, either. […]
