Gutfeld: Orlando’s doom. The most depressing article you will ever share. Share it anyway
Fox News.com ^ | June 22, 2016 | Greg Gutfeld

Posted on 06/22/2016 1:29:52 PM PDT by Kaslin

The immediate consequences from the Orlando terror attack are obvious: dozens dead and maimed – families changed forever.

The next layer of consequences, arriving soon, are not as obvious, but they are coming. Here they are:

We are getting a divorce. First, a poll shows that Americans are pretty much divided on their opinions about the attack. Most of the Democrats see it as a gun control issue. Most Republicans see it as a terror attack. And there seems to be no sign of compromise (why can’t it be mostly “terror” and a little “guns?” asks the therapist, Dr. Gutfeld)

This poll hints at an ongoing, disturbing change in this country – one that brings forth a series of even more problems – those of which I see as almost unsolvable. We quarrel about the quarrel. We cannot agree on the fight. And therefore we cannot begin to fight. Instead, we are like that proverbial snake that devours its own tail. Except, we think it’s sushi. But it’s blowfish. You get the idea. We’re dead.

Let me help Gutfeld - the problem we have in our country is liberalism and a complicit media.

When Trump is elected we will begin to save our country and make America great again.

And the 40 plus Rats staging a sit in on the House floor demanding immediate gun control legislation should just be left there with the doors locked. Maybe some of them would become mummified - wishful thinking.

. . . liberalism and a complicit media.

Our media is even worse than TASS and Pravda in the old Soviet Union. They would at least criticize the Politburo one in awhile.

When is the last time you heard our MSM criticize ObaMao? Even mildly?

Gutfeld is not eloquent but one can comprehend his message. We're fighting amongst ourselves while the enemy is poised to obliterate us.

Things are going to get much worse, with the wedge between sides getting larger and turning into open warfare, on a smaller level than occurs in backward countries in Africa. There are going to be beatings and open violence between the opposing camps of citizens (along with illegal invaders). Unfortunately they're taking our guns so it'll be beatings with canes and non-lethal assault tools. Civil War II is coming.

Wow, click the link and read the whole thing - it’s actually good.

Too much equality talk, but otherwise goes where MSM RINOs usually don’t go.

Assuming Trump will try to do what he says he will do about ISIS, the border, Wall Street, etc., he will face entrenched opposition from the corrupt establishment and the Left.

I don't believe we can have a restoration of something like the original Constitution without a Sulla, with a sword in one hand and a proscription list in the other.

This has been true for over 50 years.

TV and upper middle class affluence have numbed Americans to their reality.

The future offers us a choice of either "more fascism" or "more fascism".

“When Trump is elected we will begin to save our country and make America great again.”
_____________________________________________________

America has been beaten down and abused for decades. Much like an animal that has been abused....Trump needs to gain Americans trust and CONVINCE us that America can be great again.

We need to be able to “believe” that he can make a difference....that together, with God’s guidance, we can become a Christian nation again.

I pray that God gives Trump the wisdom to lead America.

BELIEVE!

Indeed we are. The difference is the rats are sticking together, why can’t we?

Mr. Anti-Trump Gufeld’s own mind is the problem. He does not recognize the value of leadership, or that persuasion by an effective leader can start to direct the natural human mind inside the sheeple. All this generation of 18-year-olds has heard since age 10 is lies, doublespeak and marxist mush. Their brains can and will become more useful when President Trump starts to talk to them.

The way the media and our White House deny the effects of Islamism seems eerily similar to a certain industry we grew to loathe over time. Remember how the tobacco companies denied the role of their product in lung cancer? To deny that link, now, would have you laughed off the planet. My prediction: 20 years from now we will feel the same way about Islamism.

Maybe. Either that or no one will be able to criticize it at all. The next 20 years will determine. One group will have to win, and one will lose.

We have to stick together or we will hang together.

“We are a divided country.”

Actually, it is worse than that, this country is fractured.
