Believe it or not, I have friends that are Democrats

Believe it or not, I have friends that are Democrats


Democrats,

Now I know you don't like President Trump. That’s a given, so let's move on from that. How about the division of America. Do you blame Trump for that?

How about when None of the Democrats showed up for his inauguration? Don't you think that started the division? He hadn't even been president yet, and except for Clinton and Obama, not one Democrat showed up. Is that when Trump divided America?

Can you imagine if the Republicans didn't show up for Obama's inauguration because they lost? Can you even start to imagine what would have happened?

How about when the Washington Post declared the impeachment campaign started 19 minutes after Trump’s inauguration? Was that when Trump divided America?

How about when Nancy Pelosi ripped up Trump's state of the union right in front of the world, showing complete disrespect for the President of the United States? Did that bring the country together and is that when Trump divided America?

How about when America had to endure 3 years and over 30 million dollars spent on trying to prove that Trump only won because of Russian collusion and not because America voted him in. And 17 democrats did everything in their power to prove that there was Russian Collusion and came up with zero? Was that when Trump divided America?

I can't even start to go over the Negative Press Trump’s received since his surprise win.

Remember, the donors, the likes of Bloomberg, who gave $27 million, Tom Steyer who gave $17 million, George Soros who gave $9 million, and many more that gave multi-millions to Hillary, wanted a return on their investment. Do you think that donors give millions upon millions just because they love Hillary? No, these weren't campaign donations; they were investments into what Hillary had promised them when she became president. They were so sure she would win and shower them with huge returns, and when it didn't happen and they lost all those millions, they went all out to take Trump out of office by any means possible.

Did you know that big democrat donors run 90% of the mainstream media and the corporations that own them? You can verify all of that for yourselves. I did. Since the moment Trump won, even before the inauguration, the mainstream media's reporting was 92% negative on Trump. Do you know why? It was those big donors that lost their dream of millions of dollars, on their returns that they were going to receive when Hillary was president and they weren't going to take that loss lightly. They needed to punish Trump and those that voted him in.

I've said this since Trump’s election. "There is nothing the left won't do to take down our President”, our country and us, no low they won't go to, to get their power back", and sadly, we have seen this every single day since his election.

Let me ask you this. Have you ever listened to Trump or appreciated any accomplishment or campaign promises he's kept, have you ever gone to one of his rallies, or have you just closed your mind to anything he does? Please ask yourselves the following questions, if you dare.

What has Joe Biden done for America for the last 47 years that he's a Senator?
What did Joe Biden ever do for blacks when he and Obama were in office?
What has Joe Biden ever done in his entire life to create a private-sector job?
What has Joe Biden done to help the American middle-class worker?

Let me also ask you this. Why do you think there are so many people tearing down statues, our burning flag, beating up police officers, disrespecting our founders, and hating our country? It comes straight from our schools that have slowly been tearing down our history. If there is a teacher out there, please tell me the following :

Do you teach the truth that it was the Democrats that were the KKK?

That the grand leader of the KKK was Robert Byrd, elected to congress as a Democrat and served for decades, and that it was Hillary, Bill, and Obama that gave his eulogy praising him?

That the Democrats fought the Civil war to keep slavery? That the Democrats created inner-city ghettoes to keep control of freed slaves?

That founding of Planned Parenthood in inner cities to control the black population?

Is any of this in your history books?

Let me ask you this as well:

Can a student speak up when he disagrees with a teacher that said Trump is a horrible President or we should eliminate the Electoral College? I don't think so.

I know a student that happened to. The teacher said because Hillary lost the nation should eliminate the Electoral College. The student stated the reason it should stay. The teacher ripped him apart and gave the entire class a 5-hour test, and stated it was because he dared to disagree with her. Is that happening in your schools?

I'm only asking questions. I'd like your answers.

President Trump and his entire family has been vilified, demeaned, and disrespected, for one reason and one reason only; he won.

Have you noticed the Democrats throw tantrums and object to everything he does and has never once gotten behind him to make America the best it can be? Why? They can't afford to get behind him because he would win again, and they can't let that happen. A second term may destroy the Democrat party and they know it.

Did you notice that the "cages" the left claimed that Trump built to put Illegal children in, were built by Obama for the very purpose of putting illegal children in? Was THAT all over the news when Obama did it? The very same “cages" but the media was silent!

How about when Trump commuted Roger Stone's sentence and was demonized 24/7 but not a word when Obama commuted 1,715 inmates, which included 330 that he granted on his last day in office. Did we even hear one word about it? Were there reporters even reporting it? NO! Just look at the difference in the reporting. By the way, since Trump's been in office he's commuted ten people. Is the reporting fair to not compare to Obama?

How about when Biden and Obama allowed the H1N1 or Swine Flu to infect millions of Americans before declaring it a health emergency. Was the press losing its minds and calling it the Obama flu and blaming Obama and Biden for the spread? No, the media was silent! Compare this to the negative coverage that Trump got when he immediately halted travel from China. Then, in February, Nancy Pelosi went to Chinatown and said come on down, or when DeBlasio, in March, said ride the subways and go to Broadway. Those same people are blaming Trump for the spread of coronavirus.

A final question :

What have the Democrats done to help make America the best? Have Democrats gotten behind a president that works tirelessly to care about We The People instead of using us as political pawns? What have the democrats done for people of color except for giving illegals more rights than citizens and having us pay for it?

JUST imagine what this country could accomplish if the Democrats worked with him on the economy, the coronavirus, the inner cities where he's created opportunity zones, job training, etc. When Trump tried to get school choice for inner-city students they ran Betsy Devos out!! The democrats running those inner-city schools wanted no part of school choice. Have you ever wondered why it's cities that have been run, for decades, that have the most homeless, the most crime, the most murders, the worst inner-city schools, are all run by Democrats?

If you haven't started asking yourselves those questions, maybe you should. As I said, my entire family used to be Democrats, but no one will ever vote for a Democrat again. They asked themselves the same questions and the answer was clear.

In 2016 I voted against Hillary! (because she is a truly nasty piece of work) despairing that Trump was a liberal NE Yankee Republican. I thought the things he said were just his “negotiating stance” and I would be continuously disappointed.
When he started carrying out promises and fighting back against the Left and the Press (but I repeat myself...) I switched to supporting Trump. He will be the first President I have voted “for” since Reagan.

I’m sorry, but any decent person, or any person who has functioning brain cells, should have left the Democrat Party long before now.

My grandfather left in 1980. And he was something of a bigshot in the local party.

Anyone who is still a Democrat in 2020 is in reality either a Communist or a Communist Enabler.

My wife, oldest son, and daughter-in-law were blocked last week on Facebook by my niece. You see we are unsophisticated rubes and she lives in the big city and even before the age of 25 has everything figured out, even though she has washed out on 3 FULL athletic scholarships in college and works at Subway. According to her we were just to Christian and bigoted for her. I reminded her, you’re very arrogant for your age, and YOU are the one burning bridges and cutting off family members because of your politics, this is totally on you. No reply, which is fine with me.

As for having Democrat friends I have one, a woman in her late 30’s. I have known her since she was 8 years old and she married a friend of my brother. She’s a typical liberal, disrespects her parents. At one point she told me I was mad at my daddy and my grandma was too and told him he better given into my demands or she would cut him out of her will and I told my daddy to go to hell rather proudly when she told me.

I replied girl I would have told your grandma I love you but you need to butt out she is not your child, she’s mine and I will raise her as I see fit, if that means being out of your will go change it tomorrow. I said as for you if you were my daughter and told me that you would still be hunting your teeth, you were rude and disrespectful to your father. She was taken aback, tried to justify it again half-heatedly and I said you were WRONG and need to apologize. She dropped it.

From time to time she will hunt me up for a political discussion, knowing I won’t countenance her leftist BS like her husband and parents and I tell her the truth, not hateful but calmly and that she is simply wrong. She is proud of her history education and promotes communism and socialism until I remind her, tell me what happens in history to countries under communism and she him-haw around and finally will confess they failed and were horrible, but our communist are better and can make it work. Heard that before and you know better will be my reply.

She is a public school teacher and I have been posting on twitter about the indoctrination and unprofessional behavior of public school teachers. She wouldn’t confront me but had her husband politely say something. I told him, you know I love her like a daughter but she and you know what is going on in the classrooms, he agreed. I will give her credit she doesn’t seem to promote leftist garbage in her instruction, but she knows what the other leftist are doing. When we finish a discussion or leave one another it is always with a hug and I love you. Very very rare with Democrats agreeing to disagree.

Now those I work with save one are just plan nasty pieces of work. There is a poster of Reagan and Churchill hanging in my office so they know what they are doing. Most leave me alone because I return fire if fired upon, however one professor will seek me out for political discussions. He gets mad, red faced, storms out of my office and will come back in a couple days and apologize for getting mad. I don’t get mad at him and am working on him. I have got him into defending the 2nd Amendment and getting his CCW.

I have family members that are.

Here’s what many people on the right don’t understand. These Biden supporters TRULY believe the stories that have been used to destroy Trump, that’s why there is no arguing or debating because they actually believe Trump put kids in cages, Trump conspired with Russia, Trump said dead vets are losers etc etc. These aren’t dumb people either. They’re professional people with good jobs, families etc.

The reason for their beliefs are simple. CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS, NPR....on and on. Meanwhile we watch Fox. IF you don’t watch Fox and don’t follow talk radio, you are completely brainwashed. That is NOT hyperbole.

The democrats are not our greatest enemy...the media is. The media is destroying this country.

More men like his personality, and many that don’t are able to separate his job performance from his personality. Most women don’t like his personality to the point that his job performance doesn’t even matter to them.

Men have had experience with many guys who had Trump's personality as coaches, bosses, drill instructors, etc. We learned that you don't necessarily have to like someone every moment of the day to realize that they are effective, and winners.

Women for the most part have been deprived of this experience. When they do the result is often "Oooooh, he's mean! I quit!"

I’m curious about how many registered Democrats, in total, end up voting for Donald Trump, on November 3rd? I’m going to guess a lot.

HAHAHA! Same here. 1980 was the only time I voted “for” a presidential candidate. And notice I didn’t include 1984. My feelings and thoughts about trump after his first term are completely the opposite of Reagan. Well, mostly. Reagan was still better than most, but he had dropped a few notches for me.

I spent 14 years working with NCAA athletic programs. I don’t mean to demean your niece or her family. Honest. But, trust me, no college is going to offer a second full boat scholarship to anyone that’s failed out of one already. And no kid is going full boat if they are a 3 sport player. That’s not how it works. Even if she is the female version of Jim Thorpe.

Someone is inflating their story. A lot.

As a woman, I am embarrassed by liberal women feeling instead of thinking.

>our communist are better and can make it work

The refutation to this, besides the riots, is that many people insist on keeping their stuff. The communists therefore need goons to take it by force. The goons then keep everything for themselves and replace the idealistic communists who employed them and continue as fake communists. It is inevitable. Your grandma would be first out of a “communist” regime.

The purpose of communism is redistribution of wealth to the redistributors, their goons, minions, cronies and families.

I just unfriended the few I have left. It's not even that they are against Trump. It's that when they say, "He's done nothing to fight COVID," and I say, "No, he has, look, here's a list I made of the things he's done," and they say, "I'm not interested in looking at that."

I would not treat them that way. They don't know or care how I feel, we cannot understand each other anymore... what is the point? My family are all Trump supporters, so... I'm good. I'll just stick with those who understand what America means to me.

I voted for ex-quarterback Jack Kemp in the 1980 primary.
Reagan was a fallback.

I would never unfriend anyone as long as I could post refutations to protect their other readers. If they just deleted my comments, I reposted them until they were forced to block me altogether.

I’m sorry I think I may have confused you on the scholarship thing and understand this is what we heard from her and her Mom, at least in regard to one incident. She was a all state basketball player and if I remember holds a state record in rebounds, I did confirm that and she only played one sport, woman’s basketball. I know she did have one basketball scholarship for sure and that another college did offer her the same basketball ride after she screwed up the first time and they quickly figured she wasn’t going to work and released her, heck from what her dad said they couldn’t find her at school she was off with her boyfriend.

As for the third, that is what (her and her mom) tell and give another lame excuse why she lost that one-it’s never her fault you see. Her dad says the third one is pure fantasy land, but that she did screwed the pooch on two for sure. He said she simply wouldn’t go to class and wouldn’t come to practice and expected to play. He’s washed his hands on her where college is concerned. Sorry for the confusion.

Yeah I saw this email just the other day. I think it is fake to be honest. But who knows it may be real. Sadly it is impossible to know for sure if it is real or not.
