GOHMERT: ‘Instead of Canceling Our Culture, It’s Time to Cancel Democrats’
Sean Hannity ^ | 07.23.2020 | Hannity Staff

Republican Congressman Louie Gohmert ripped the radical left’s latest concept of “cancel culture” in a fiery op-ed published Thursday; suggesting it’s now time to “Cancel Democrats” instead.

“Many on the left and their willing accomplices in the media would tell you otherwise, yet a cursory examination of our nation’s factual history and records proves the riots and chaos that have swept across our country in recent months stand as a devastating reminder of the racist policies and values held by the Democratic Party throughout much of its history,” writes Gohmert.

“Throughout America’s history, Republicans have fought to repeal Jim Crow laws, desegregate schools, and promote racial equality in America. In recent years, Republicans, including President Trump, have continued this fight by working valiantly to lift Americans of all races out of poverty through pro-growth economic policies that have done more to help the plight of the impoverished than any administration. Prior to the economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, unemployment rates for minorities were at record lows with employment at record highs,” he adds.

“Efforts by Democrats to destroy all public traces of their own history of supporting slavery, the Confederacy, and segregation in an attempt to shift blame onto Republicans must no longer go unchallenged. It is time for Democrats to play by their own rules, and accept the standards they have forced onto everyone else. They must divest themselves of their name that has denied so many the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Their recent actions demand nothing less. Instead of canceling our culture and history, it’s time to #CancelDemocrats,” concludes Gohmert.

Actually it was quite a long speech.

I said months ago though that the Democrat Party needed to be disbanded.

I do not see Democrats today. I see Marxists using the label of Democrats. Henry Jackson or even Hubert Humphrey would not be welcome in today’s Democratic Party, which is now a front for CPUSA and RevCom.

So they are attempting to remove all traces of their Demoncrat racist history, and do not want the youth educated on the history.

If America needs to be destroyed because of racism why doesn’t the Democrat Party since it is full of racists?

Democrat party is a subversive organization. They do not uphold the constitution, nor defend/protect the people of the U.S.. They hold office in bad faith to the interest of our country. They’re not liberal at all.
