Robert Reich’s ‘Truth and Reconciliation Commission’
American Thinker ^ | 24 Mar, 2021 | Arnold Cusmariu

What do wannabe tyrants dream of?

If you are a Trump supporter, you may soon find yourself in the crosshairs of an outfit called the “Truth and Reconciliation Commission” (TRC), an idea floated last fall by Robert Reich, professor at the University of California Berkeley and former Secretary of Labor in the Clinton Administration. Reich stated the purpose of the TRC this way on Twitter:

When this nightmare [the Trump presidency] is over, we need a Truth and Reconciliation Commission. It would erase Trump’s lies, comfort those who have been harmed by his hatefulness, and name every official, politician, executive, and media mogul whose greed and cowardice enabled this catastrophe.

However, unlike John “Swiftboat” Kerry, Reich hasn’t managed to wangle a position with the current administration and turn his one-paragraph Twitter dream into an office with a staff and a budget. That may only be because President Asterisk is too busy putting out fires of his own making, such as the immigration mess. Another possibility is that Biden is literally falling down on the job. Reich will have to wait.

If the TRC ever becomes more than wishful thinking, Trump supporters can expect a letter such as the following on official White House stationery.

Dear [your name],

Our investigation has determined that you are a supporter of one Donald John Trump, media personality, real-estate mogul and twice-impeached president of the United States. We reached this conclusion based on GOP affiliation rolls; donations to the Trump campaign; Trump stickers on your car; and/or Trump signs on your property last fall.

Accordingly, it has been decided that you need special training to help you overcome unhealthy tendencies and make sure you will support only progressive candidates. We will provide this training at the North Dakota location indicated on the enclosed map

The left seems to love the reeducation camps and don’t be surprised if gulags make a reappearance too.

I will not be taken to a camp. The official that comes for me won’t go home that night, either. This shit stops.

As a (short) white man who worked for Globalist Bill Clinton, a Prog Leftist TRC will come for you in due course - don’t worry Bobby. I’ve seen you tweet a ton of socialist drivel but nobody believes it.

Exactly! It won't be trains, it will be Greyhound type busses with built in shackles. If you board it, you will be tortured and slaughtered anyway, so have a plan up front so as to at least avoid the torture part.

if everyone on the bus runs to one side, can they tip it over on their oppressors?

If I were dragged into one of those, I’d be standing tall. I am not ashamed to be a Trump supporter and a lover of Truth, Justice and the American way.

Let them shout me down. I wouldn’t care.

Robert Reich, Clinton’s court jester, and all-around malignant dwarf. He’s a really evil man. Back during the early days of the 0bama regime, he was fuming about how he didn’t want ANY of the stimulus money going to WHITE MEN.

Where are they going to find remote places to put people in camps when states succeed?

Club Gitmo?

The really scary thing is that Reich really believes this crap. That tells us just how deeply brainwashed these people are.

Is your tip over the bus a reference to the genius that thought that Guam might tip over?

The left sucks at educating, why would they be any better at re-educating?

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

Robert Reich repeatedly shows that he has a mental defect. This man belongs in treatment.
