Trump at Mount Rushmore revisited
Powerline ^ | July 5, 2020 | Scott Johnson

Posted on 07/05/2020 8:09:44 AM PDT by yoe

As I listened to President Trump’s July 3 speech at Mount Rushmore (White House text here, video below), I couldn’t believe how good it was. One measure of the speech is the campaign of falsehood undertaken by the press condemning it in unison. As I wrote (here) yesterday morning, I had only my own reaction to go on. Now I can commend the following columns to the attention of interested readers:

(Roger Kimball),

(Ken Masugi,)

(Seth Lipsky)

(“A night at Mount Rushmore.”)

(Neo)

The president’s speech at Mt. Rushmore was spectacular. Absolutely fabulous. Truly historic. One of the most powerful speeches I’ve ever heard. I couldn’t be prouder.— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) July 4, 2020

The MSM is so evil, so corrupt, so stupid,
that they purport nasty things about Pres. Trump
and then play what said from a BEAUTIFUL AMERICAN SPEECH.

MSM <=== saliently in deep need of accountability for pushing sedition and treason for years.

As Scott Johnson has observed, you can tell how great the President's speech was by the level of vitriol spewing from the MSM.

And the MSM vitriol was/is Yuge!

This speech needs to be repeated, word for word it is that good. Would have been a good time on the 4th but it wasn't. Most likely to avoid redundancy. But I would use it over and over until a saturation point.

The enemia refused to broadcast an American President speaking on a 4th of July celebration at a American historical landmark.

This may be the best Presidential speech I have ever heard and I have heard many. Last evening robust Patriotism broke out in my city like I have never seen. The fireworks, purchased by private individuals, small, medium, large and outright spectacular began in the late afternoon and went until near midnight without pause. Some went into the heavens, taking our breath away. They were being launched from the North, South, East and West. We have never seen this before in this area. I thought to myself, “The silent majority is speaking tonight and it is not being filtered through a corrupt media.”

I was in the Black Hils area about a decade ago. Of course we went to Mt Rushmore. But the family went to the Crazy Horse monument still in progress.

The radical view of American history is a web of lies, all perspective is removed, every virtue is obscured, every motive is twisted, every fact is distorted and every flaw is magnified until the history is purged and the record is disfigured beyond all recognition

Our children are taught in school to hate their own country and to believe that the men and women who built it were not heroes but that were villains.

Thomas Jefferson was 33 years old when he traveled north to Pennsylvania and brilliantly authored one of the greatest treasures of human history, the Declaration of Independence.
