President Trump called out former Republican Pennsylvania Governor Tom Ridge on Twitter Thursday.

According to CNN the former Homeland Security secretary says he doesn’t think President Trump should bring federal agents to cities with protests.

In the tweet Trump said, “Recently watched failed RINO Tom Ridge, former head of Homeland Security, trying to justify his sudden love of the Radical Left Mayor of Portland, who last night was booed & shouted out of existence by the agitators & anarchists. Love watching pathetic Never Trumpers squirm!”

I did all of that while opposing the war in Iraq and the phony search for yellow cake and mass weapons of destruction. That was a John Bolton, Inc deal, if ever there was one.

I supported GW Bush after he got the nomination. Why in the hell would anyone have supported the democrat candidate is beyond me.

Another clear case of voting for the lessor of two evils. It was either Bush or...both elections.

Which would you have preferred? Kerry? Gore? Would that have been your choice?

The last election was the first since Reagan I can remember that I could vote in confidence for a man who I liked.

There’s a difference between supporting Bush against Gore in the general election - understandable and defensible - and giving sheeple-like support to all his policies as president, including his invasion of Iraq. Trump has rightly called that invasion one of the stupidest most destructive foreign policy decisions in US history. But Freepers who criticized it at the time - along with other stupid Bush policies - were violently denounced by many of not most fellow Freepers.

I agree. I'd also like to see the 55c changed to just 45.

I'll call Photoshop tomorrow and see if I can get somebody to do that.

Okay....relevant.

Now....we need MSM/social media to make this connection go viral.

We know MSM won’t run with it.

Anyone in the know who had done their homework from day 1 knew Ridge was a globalist/ internationalist CFR establishment hack ready to sell the USA out and all in the name of patriotism and protecting us wrapped up in the flag while doing so. Sorry so many freepers were blind to guys like him, being otherwise would be too conspiratorial... A major weakness in this online community is being strung along by the msm so as to not appear as wackos so the only respectavble sources are the msm who present a vicious cycle of false dichotomies, sophisms and half truths gaslighting us to death.

So that is the purpose of the post then?

To hang the wash because you got flamed for arguing a point? If I could count the times I got flamed..
Hell I did not support Trump at the start of his run in the primaries. I could not support any of them since most of them were there to take up space. Then it got down to the final four or five and I sort of liked Cruz till Glenn Beck showed up with his clown show and destroyed that campaign. Then I supported Trump openly-that was just before the Glen Beck freak show at Las Vegas.

Look pal, we are in the very beginning of a soon to happen blood bath in this country. To start rehashing past deeds-even on this forum, will do no good. You will note that Rand Paul, and Ted Cruz and a couple others are openly supporting Trump and yet, I see people pouting on this forum about Cruz and Paul, etc. Every ONE OF US had better get over our pouting and get in line because this shit that is about to come down on us aint gonna be funny.

The open urban killing will start UNLESS, we get off our asses and get to hell out there and show them we aint gonna let them get away with what they think they can get away with.

And if that means a general killing...so be it.

” it’s relevant that Tom Ridge blasted Trumps proposal to send federal agents to Portland”

Indeed. Very relevant. But I will say FR has come a long way from the days of Bush worship. Remember the threads “A day in the life of president Bush”. The Trump hating, Hillary supporting, Illegal inviting, warmongering, Middle East destabilizing, job exporting, manufacturing decimating, housing bubble enabling, Muslim loving Bush. That Bush.

Well, what *I* think is that we’ve all been so used to the Status Quo and victories few and far between that now that President Trump has arrived, a LOT of our blinders are off and the scales have fallen from our eyes.

I was MORE than happy to hold my nose and vote for the latest Pubbie, though it was PAINFUL to do so for McCain and Romney, especially.

*Hindsight Barf*

It’s been such a long time since we had any true LEADER who LOVES America and just doesn’t want to profit off of it while selling ‘We The People’ down the river, that it makes the rest of the America-Hating, RINO, Never-Trumpers, Globalist, Socialist CREEPS stand out in black and white.

P.S. And I will STILL complain and rail against ‘Mother Government’ as a whole.

Of that, you can be sure! :)

I agree with most of your post, but would qualify the “get out there” comment. I don’t see any value in doing Trump rallies or back the blue rallies in Antifa -strong communities. It only risks a violent rumble and gives the goons the attention they crave. They should be allowed to sulk unnoticed in the neighborhoods they have taken over. Don’t give them media oxygen.

Our time and energy is better spent on traditional campaign tasks for Trump and other MAGA candidates: phone banks, fundraising, precinct walks.

As a rule, I don’t go walking (or driving) in high-crime neighborhoods. I don’t jump the fence at the zoo’s tiger exhibit. I don’t stand up at the top of the rollercoaster. So why would I want to engage in a dueling rally with Antifa thugs?

That should really be a "FOREVER" stamp, not 55-cents. Really drive the Lefties out of their minds!

A) That would be a short drive.

B) I agree. Hopefully somebody with photoshopping skills will change the 55c to just 45 and put "Forever" on it. You know anybody?

“So why would I want to engage in a dueling rally with Antifa thugs?”

Because sooner or later you will have to make that choice.

“They should be allowed to sulk unnoticed in the neighborhoods they have taken over.”

They are moving into the Urban areas. Kenosha WI is a smaller town. Drive directly out of town and your into farm country.
Next it will be an even smaller town. Then smaller, then smaller. You did note that they had a fire fight in Bedford county PA last week did you not? An out and out fire fight between towns folk and Antifa/BLM pukes.
