“Democracy is the government of the people, by the people, for the people.”

Lincoln was wrong, it has never been "government of the people, by the people, for the people".

It's always been control of the people, by the rich and powerful, for the rich and powerful.

Anybody who believes otherwise has their head in the sand.

Liberal elites are into class warfare. We’re not.

When conservatives talk about ‘the elties’ it’s not a money thing. We’re not talking about the Marxist/Antifa 1% crap.

If class envy and wealth was our issue our leader wouldn’t be Trump - or one of our heroes - Elon Must or a man we admire off and on who’s a liberal - Bill Maher... It’s a process - we’re not ‘jealous of rich people’s ‘stuff’...contrary to what the bimbos Karie Couric and Elizabeth Warren chose to believe.

Our democracy isn’t perfect because we’re not perfect, but our battle is based on simple principles - and Lincoln’s “by the people, for the people...” is part of it.
