Patriotic Opposition to Donald Trump
New York Times ^ | DEC. 12, 2016 | Charles M. Blow

Posted on 12/12/2016 6:14:43 AM PST by artichokegrower

Nothing is safe or sacrosanct in Donald Trump’s developing governance team, and America had better start being alarmed about it and moving to actively oppose it.

The time for voting has elapsed, but the time for being vocal has emerged.

The NY Times is making me feel even better about Trump's picks.

The snowflakes are going to be a lost generation. The next one will learn more and do more without crying about it.

Charles Blowhard and many other pathetic elites will soon be discovering the homeless, neglected veterans, starving Americans, and on and on. They are really laughable.

If you don’t support the Presidency (or idea) of Donald Trump, you’re a racist.

Hey, it worked to deflect any and all criticism or opposition to the left’s dear leader President Obeyme, right?

From the article:

“You may have been on the losing side of this year’s election, but you are on the right side of history. In the final tally, courage will always defeat fear; love will always conquer hate; the beautiful diversity of America, and indeed all of humanity, will always outshine the darkness of racial enmity.”

This is the false narrative we can expect to hear over and over again. Leftists are supposedly courageous, we are fearful. Leftists are supposedly guided by love, we are guided by hate. Leftists are supposedly patriotic, we are racist.

Get ready. This is what you are going to be subject to.

Because the recount in PA and WI cannot change the outcome.

Yes it can. The object is to destabilize the process and throw it into the US Supreme Court where the Liberal/Progressive Judges can invalidate the Electoral Collage and give the election to Hillary.

Glad the Fake York Times is who decides what is and isn’t patriotic.

Pray America woke

For the Left to thump its chest about patriotism is a bad joke. The Left has scorned America and patriotism for generations. But when their unholy agenda appears threatened,then they get red,white and blue. Hitler’s invasion of the Soviet Union is a perfvt example of such patriotism. Then the Left got gung ho about going to war to save Communism under the guise of patriotism.

Wrong. Trump still has 276 electoral votes without WI and PA. It has no effect. It cannot go to the Court. It is over.

One of the unfortunate side effects of the Trump win is that this dope Charles Blow is going to get more column space and will be built up as the voice of “Truth Telling” against the evil racist horde that barbarian Trump leads. I wish he’d just go away.

I wouldn’t call it “unfortunate”. The more loony the left gets, and Charles Blow is a pied piper of the loons, the better it is for us!

The fight is nowhere close to over. We've breached the front door, now we have to clear the building.

Let’s take the tally:

He has chosen a man hostile to immigrants and with a complicated — to put it mildly — history on race to be attorney general.

He has chosen a man who is anti-abortion, pro-fetal “personhood,” and anti-Obamacare to be secretary of health and human services.

He has chosen a man who has criticized paid sick-leave policies and opposes increasing the federal minimum wage to lead the Department of Labor.

He has chosen a climate change denier and anti-environmental-regulation crusader to lead the Environmental Protection Agency.

He has chosen a vocal proponent of school vouchers to run the Department of Education.

If you add an end to open borders is kinda sums up why we all voted for him
......................................................

which is the only way to TURN THIS COUNTRY AROUND from its path to destruction under Obama!

What would anyone at the NYT know about being Patriotic? They work tirelessly to destroy the Constitution of the US and replace it with a marxist socialist government. Patriotism? I think not.

This guy really blows. He soils himself because people have beliefs that are different from his. Chuckles should stick to blowing donkeys and leave the important things to the adults in the Trump administration.
