That's applicable to today's angry, almost addicted Left, argues Victor Davis Hanson in this edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

“We have suffered now from almost a decade of Russian collusion, laptop disinformation, five criminal and civil suits, 91 indictments, efforts to get [Donald Trump] off the ballot. I could go on and on in a nauseating fashion, but they all have had two results.

“One, the people are now bored and weary with all of these psychodramas and melodramas. And two, they're starting to see them as substitutes for substantive criticism or substantive discussion …

“Pete Hegseth is going to be confirmed. He weathered all of the invective. It's clear the Left failed to stop him. There was no discussion in those ad hominem attacks on really critical questions for all of our security concerns. Are we short artillery shells? Is the traditional triad of submarine-based, missile-based, and airplane-based nuclear deterrent, does it still work?

“Are we short Javelins? Should we be looking more at drones after the wars in the Middle East and Ukraine? None of that came up. It was, ‘Were you drinking? Did you have adultery, adultery, adultery?’”
