Trump gets it
American Thinker ^ | August 16,2017 | Mark Jarrett

Posted on 08/16/2017 3:56:56 PM PDT by Hojczyk

The violence in Charlottesville, and the tearing down of Robert E. Lee's statue there and in Durham, has made me angry and unhappy. I, like many Americans and Southerners of my generation, have seen the tremendous progress in racial harmony. I remember the bad old days and do not want to return there, but I also do not like attacks on my ancestors. Then I listened to President Trump's remarks yesterday from Trump Tower. Brilliant.

Trump jumped to the chase. He gets the progressive mind. He asked, "Will you tear down George Washington's statue next? Do you like Jefferson? He was a slave owner. Will you tear down his statue, too? You are changing the history and changing the culture." Finally, we have a leader who fights back against the tyranny of the culture-changing socialists.

Trump understands that these actions are warm-ups. The progressives are tearing down Confederate statues, and they are kicking and spitting on the memorials to the dead because they cannot yet kick and spit on President Trump and his voters. If they could imprison Trump and deport his voters, they would do that and not worry about statues. They are lashing out where they can.

Progressives want a socialist society cleansed of traditional values. To get power, we, as a country, must reject our heritage of freedom and embrace Marxist values of state control. That is why they fight so hard to control the teaching of history and why they denigrate the ideals and values of the Founders and the pioneers.

I think we’re at least 30 years too late for “jobs” to make any difference.

Once again, my idiot congressman John Katko sides with the wrong side. He doesn’t care that one side was legally permitted to protest. He sided with the terrorists blm and antifa. He sides with groups preventing another’s constitutionally protected rights because of emotion.

I despise him more and more each day. He has lost my vote forever. There is little difference in him and that loon Maffei.

I would never have believed that so many fools would support a lie like “transgender bathrooms”.

They are beyond sick in the head. And they can’t even figure out they are deceived by a tool of Satan. My God in Heaven. They are of reprobate minds. Absolutely gone from reality.

This is the PERFECT STORM, dreamt up by the previous mismaladministration.

Bunch of Whites get a LEGAL PERMIT to hold an event.
While many Whites may be sympathetic to the cause of the group, the majority of us have spent the last 50 years at least ‘squashing’ the KKK & American Nazi movement, and pushing into the shadows.

A bunch on anti White ‘protesters’ showed up armed to the teeth in order to disrupt the LEGAL gathering.
Apparently, with the blessing of the City & State Government, the Police withdrew, leaving the LEGAL gathering open to attack.

NOW, the perfect storm comes up by

When WE complain about the events as they happened, we are thrown into the mix as being sympathizers-at the very least- of the RACIST movement.

If we Demand action be taken against the antis - who had no permit, we are accused of being racists because we aren’t backing the minorities.

Funny how the R’s don’t seem to mind sending their own offspring to public schools. Every last one of them seems pretty sure there little school is cute and “just fine”.

We have lost most of two generations and all of a third with that kind of thinking.

Academia rules curriculum. If your state curriculum passes the smell test then Leftist teachers simply don’t teach tradition. They teach something else and you can’t see or hear what it is.

Yes, exactly. The destroyers are quite emboldened aren’t they. Congress won’t allow Trump to crush them and law enforcement is not allowed to stop them on sight.

WTH is suppose to be the outcome?

This current generation seems the most gullible to receive the Antichrist with open arms.

No concept of what America was, since it occurred before their time, hero worship of people like Che, Mandela, etc., and in a lot of cases, unchurched and told the Bible is not reliable or “just another religion”.

Planet Earth is running out of time.

Absolutely. That statement is 100% accurate.

It actually took me a little bit to realize, they NEVER saw what America used to be. They are fed revisionist history and liberal propaganda.

Short of another 9/11, I’m not sure much will wake up the idiot half of this country. And even that only woke some up for a few years. Then a bunch went flippin’ stupid in 2008.

I’m sure the muslim terrorists are planning the next 9/11 as we type.
