I think it’s gone beyond culture and is now more fundamental, to the structure of civilization itself.

A small group of global elite acadians controlling a hive-mind-like slave labor force.

Trump says ‘we are in a culture war,’ Republicans need to ‘toughen up’

_____________________________________________________

When I hear Trump speak these words, and then think of the pathetic creatures that represented the Republican Party just prior to him (e.g. Romney, McCain, Bush jr.), I cannot help but think about how we all were conditioned to just accept the election of these low-quality candidates.

Now we are fighting for our survival.

************

We are not really doing that, and that’s the problem. We have been far too passive and tolerant in the face of abuses, aggressive behavior and lawlessness by the other side. Until such time as we, collectively, toughen up and cast aside our fears of being called names there is no chance we will prevail.

First, we need to shed the worries about being blamed and stigmatized and speak our minds — forcefully and without hesitation. If this means vigorously arguing with our opponents, and even friends and family, so be it.

Second, we need to DEMAND that our elected representatives fight for us. This means zero tolerance for weakness and appeasement. Betray us and you’re out. And just watch the sudden change in their voting patterns when they realize we’re not suffering fools and liars anymore.

And third, we need to financially support the representatives that are willing to advance our principles. I realize this economy is tough on many of us but we need to give whatever we can to help Trump and anyone he endorses. Given the threats we are facing today, few things are more important than this.

We are in an existential fight for our lives and our country. Its time we go into battle to defend it.

They’ll dredge it up again, that “culture war” is a dog whistle for all us “racists”.

***********

You’re right but we have to shed our neurotic fear of being called names. I don’t give a damn what the far left extremists think of us or call us. Its time we start pushing back HARD. If not now, then when?

Winners are not whiners. They don’t let fear de-rail their desire to win. We have to adopt the same attitude.

let’s face it, the “republicans” in congress have spines less substantive than jello. Their natural instinct is to run, hide, cower, cringe, and beg.

Correct. But they are only there because WE keeping voting for these cowards and allowing them to stay. Its time to change that.

I’ll give to Trump, but I’ll ignore his endorsements.
He endorsed McCain, Romney and Grahamnesty.

Good point. Thanks for posting that. Trump needs true allies, not deceitful RINOs like that trio.

I think the GOP must be replaced as the party is too far gone to toughen up. All the Leftists need to do is riot and stomp their feet and the GOP capitulates.

President Trump is correct. We are in a war for the heart and soul of our nation.

Yeah, good luck with that. The GOP is the biggest bunch of cowards you’ll find anywhere. Not only are they little help to the POTUS, he has to worry about them stabbing him in the back. I give you Pierre Delecto, Utah’s prize Senator, as an example.

It’s like we are in the middle of a war, and the Republican Party hasn’t noticed it yet.

Oh, the GOP has noticed. They’re just on the other side. The GOPe corportists knows all they have to do is nothing and the MAGA vote will be outvoted/aged out in a decade or two. Once TX, GA and FL flip blue it’s game over.

Agree. Senator Delecto and his like minded ilk are a primary example of why we desperately need a new party that stands up for us. The ethos (if you can call it that) of the party is one of weakness, deceit and appeasement. The GOP is a disgrace.
