Rob Schmitt slammed what he called “white guilt fools” who are being hoodwinked by a sugar-coated socialist fairytale, and his warning deserves a hearing from every patriotic New Yorker who still believes in common sense and personal responsibility. Schmitt has built a reputation on Newsmax for calling out the soft-on-crime, soft-on-economy instincts of the coastal elites, and this latest broadside should set off alarm bells for anyone who remembers what socialism actually delivers: decay, chaos, and higher taxes.
Look beyond the rhetoric and you see a familiar pattern: charismatic promises, media worship, and a coalition that asks voters to atone for history by surrendering their future. The socialist candidate’s glossy words about fairness and equity mask policies that will hollow out neighborhoods, empower criminals, and punish small businesses that are the backbone of our city. New Yorkers who love their families and want safe streets should reject the con game of identity politics dressed up as virtue.
President Trump has long warned about the perils of socialism and, according to the clip’s argument, urged voters to make hard choices — even if that means picking a flawed Democrat rather than handing the keys to someone who wants to tear down the system. Whether you love or loathe Trump, the core point is simple: when the choice is between an imperfect steward of liberty and an ideological wrecking ball, prudence should win. The debate over lesser-evil voting is old, but what’s new is the urgency of preventing a radical experiment in America’s largest city.
Let’s be honest: “white guilt” has become a political cudgel used to shame decent people into voting against their own interests, and that tactic is being wielded hard by the left’s new hopefuls. Conservatives should not be ashamed of defending law and order, merit, and equal treatment under the law — those principles built the middle class and lifted millions out of poverty. Turning our backs on achievement and security for virtue-signaling will not heal communities, it will destroy them.
This is not some academic argument about ideology; it is about who will pick up the pieces when policies fail. Socialism promises free everything paid for by somebody else, but the somewhere-else is the hardworking taxpayer, the family that pays the rent, the entrepreneur who risks everything to create jobs. If voters in New York want fewer police, more permissive criminal policies, skyrocketing costs, and a city that chases away employers, then keep buying the fairytales — but don’t be surprised when the bill comes due.
I researched the clip and the surrounding claims before writing, trying to corroborate exact quotes and the context in which they were made; my review shows Rob Schmitt’s commentary appears on Newsmax and the network has repeatedly highlighted warnings about socialist influence in city politics, though some phrasing in shared clips can be paraphrased by hosts. Readers should be skeptical of online clips that compress complex conversations into a slogan; still, the core warning — that naive guilt can translate into bad policy — is visible across many liberal experiments and deserves scrutiny.
Hardworking Americans won’t be lectured into submission by coastal elites or media celebrities selling nostalgia for failed 20th-century ideologies. Stand with common-sense lawmakers who protect families, back the police, and cut taxes so people can keep what they earn — that’s the only fairytale worth fighting for. If New Yorkers want revival instead of ruin, now is the time to raise your voice and vote like your children’s future depends on it, because it does.
