The Democrats Attack the Country; the Republicans Attack the Democrats

Last week, we watched as Joe Biden and his increasingly radical party outlined their dark perception of the country. They offered few policies and no solutions. Their message boiled down to America is evil and rotten to the core, and Trump is a fascist who represents an existential “threat to our democracy.” The Democrats also called Trump a racist, accused him of culpability for every single COVID-19 death in the country, and for the economic contraction that has led to a 10 percent unemployment rate. As if the well-documented failures of the Postal Service over the last several decades have not already undermined it enough, Hillary Clinton blamed Trump for supposedly trying to sabotage it in an attempt to “steal an election.”

At this week's RNC, the Republicans have not only focused far more on matters of substance and policy, but they have offered a vision of the country that promotes freedom, liberty, religion, faith, exceptionalism, innovation, entrepreneurship, and the American Dream. They have acknowledged that we are not without flaws, but unlike the Democrats, the Republicans are not calling for the expulsion of our history. As Donald Trump Jr. said, “In order to improve in the future, we must learn from our past, not erase it. So we’re not going to tear down monuments and forget the people who built our great nation. Instead, we will learn from our past so we don’t repeat any mistakes and we will work tirelessly to improve the lives of all Americans.”

We heard from Vernon Jones, a Democrat Georgia State Representative who excoriated the Democrats for blindly taking advantage of the black vote, silencing dissenters, and for rewarding criminals over law-abiding citizens. “The Democratic Party does not want Black people to leave their mental plantation.

Trump is going to have to address the virus tonight. Something along the lines of:

” Biden says he would have done better. And, I guess, he expects us to take him at his word. But let’s look not at what he says he would have done, but what he did. Left depleted stocks from the Obama administration. Protested the travel ban. Minimized the danger of the virus, while I was taking action. Meanwhile, Democrat governors were putting covid patients in nursing homes, leading to tens of thousands of deaths. Biden is great at saying what he would have done, but all you have to do is look at what the Democrats actually did to see that this would have been much worse if they were running the show.”

Blah blah blah. Virus yada yada. People are tired of hearing about the dangers of the common cold.

Clarence Henderson was awesome. Time to know your history. The GOP has been fighting for minorities for 60 years against the left.
