A Culture War Battle Trump Can Win
Real Clear Politics ^ | 7/7/20

Speaking at Mount Rushmore on Friday, and from the White House lawn on Saturday, July 4, Donald Trump recast the presidential race.

He seized upon an issue that can turn his fortunes around, and the wounded howls of the media testify to the power of his message.

Standing beneath the mammoth carved images of Presidents Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt, Trump declared: "Angry mobs are trying to tear down statues of our founders, deface our most sacred memorials, and unleash a wave of violent crime in our cities."

These mobs are made up of Marxists, criminals and anarchists. Their cause is a cultural revolution. "Their goal is not a better America. Their goal is the end of America."

After reciting the achievements of his four predecessors, Trump added: "No movement that seeks to dismantle these treasured American legacies can possibly have a love of America at its heart."

Then he put it right into the basement hideaway of Joe Biden: "No person who remains quiet at the destruction of this resplendent heritage can possibly lead us to a better future."

Trump is calling out Biden's silence in the face of an onslaught against our heroes and history as manifest political cowardice that makes Biden a moral accomplice of the mobs.

One day, Basement Boy is going to have to speak out.

Where was Biden when Trump was standing up for America on Independence Day?

As his Party tweeted that Trump's trip to Mount Rushmore was aimed at "glorifying white supremacy," Biden was wailing about the need "to rip the roots of systemic racism" out of America.

Does that sound like Harry Truman or JFK?

So the lines are drawn for 2020.

Can win? He is winning it. He has found a way, with one speech to make his opponent and its party own the disgusting things going on in America

He has turned Joe Biden into a more senile George McGovern.

Just curious; this article was pulled on another thread but I’d seen it was by Pat Buchanan, and the author isn’t even given in this version. The other thread was from townhall.com. So why this one - just an excerpt from Real Clear Politics, as Buchanan’s articles are usually posted in full - and almost no comments here. Not you, Altura, but the mods - I’m wondering what went on and if anyone really pays any attention. I will not click on Real Clear Politics. The source should mean as much as the timing.

Why? The media is ripping Trump every time he opens his mouth. Whey does Biden need to say anything when the media is doing his job for him?
