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

Sounds more like the Ministry of Truth. No “truth” other than what the government endorses shall be allowed.

why would they be any better at re-educating?

The goal is not "re-educating."

It is submission, oppression and control.

Solzhenitsyn is a must read for everyone. We probably ought to pick up copies of his books before they are banned.

I do not understand how someone can survive with such upside down thinking. How does he avoid sticking himself in the eye with a fork?

I didn’t know that, they obviously don’t want to 75 years of state sponsored terror.
