At Mount Rushmore, Trump digs deeper into nation’s divisions

At the foot of Mount Rushmore on the eve of Independence Day, President Donald Trump made a direct appeal to disaffected white voters four months before Election Day, accusing protesters who have pushed for racial justice of engaging in a “merciless campaign to wipe out our history.” The president dug further into American divisions Friday, offering a discordant tone to an electorate battered by a pandemic and wounded by racial injustice following the high-profile killings of Black people. He zeroed in on the desecration by some protesters of monuments and statues across the country that honor those who have benefited from slavery, including some past presidents.

The only reason I am posting this is the this is the nth headline from the MSM claiming Trump is pushing "racial division". What would one call all the articles and like in the MSM about "white fragility", "Karens" and like?

National Parks have been deemed racist because too many white people visit.

How soon before elections are deemed racist because too many white people vote?

“... e zeroed in on the desecration by some protesters...”

It isn’t SOME protesters, it’s nearly all of them. They all approve of the desecration. They are NOT protesters, they are terrorist who need to be dealt with harshly, including those in the media (the two scum assholes in this AP article) who support them.

AP writers side with the anarchists.

I’m old enough to remember when opinion pieces were not labeled ‘news’.

Trump pushes racial division

And further on in the article :

....seared by the recent high-profile killings of Black people

including many disaffected white votes

Seems to me AP is the one pushing racial division. Why are they capitalizing black and not white ? That is pushing racial division.

Yup. WRAL, Raleigh:
“Trump pushes racial division, barely mentions pandemic at Rushmore”

These guys just sit around and wait for their handlers to tell them what to say next.

My DIL eats this crap up. Told us she listens to NPR and BBC, and would love to debate us. At least she hasn’t cut us off from the grandkids. Corrupted by Rice University and the public schools. Says my wife and I are being fed propaganda!

Mockingbirds gave out their talking points to their fellow newsroom parrots.

“Having a high IQ doesn’t give a person common sense.”

You bet!! In fact I am convinced there is an inverse relationship between common sense and high intelligence. More to your point, IQ is a measure of ones ability to learn and has little to do with being smart which is a measure of how what has been learned is applied to ones journey thru life.
