100-Year-Old Veteran Breaks Down Over What America Has Become
Independent Sentinel ^ | July 2, 2022 | M Dowling

Posted on 07/02/2022 5:40:56 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

The 100-year-old veteran in the clip below breaks down over the disaster that is now America. America is on the brink. It’s heartbreaking to hear this veteran speak because he’s right and shouldn’t have to see this.

“I am so upset that the things that we did, and the things we fought for, and the boys that died for it. It’s all gone down the drain. Our country’s going to Hell in a handbasket. We haven’t got the country we had when I was raised, not at all. Nobody will have the fun I had. Nobody’ll have the opportunity I had. This is not the same. That is not what they died for…”

The Left is even trashing The Greatest Generation – a man like this – who gave so much to keep us free. They are now giving it all away.

I’m 66. The burden my generation and previous ones bear is the fact we knew what America was like before the leftists sent it to hell.

Our REPUBLIC has been under attack from within and without for generations. Too many were just too comfortable in their own lives and never noticed. And, as the undermining progressed and became more apparent but, most were not personally affected they chose the easy, comfortable path to simply ignore it because it didn’t personally affect them.
Which is EXACTLY what those who organized to undermine our Republic from within and without bargained on.
They counted upon our comfortable complacency. And, they calculated very accurately. We are at this tipping point because most couldn’t care less because it didn’t affect themselves personally.

Hear, Hear! God bless him. There are a few of us that see it. Him who has ears, let him hear, and prepare their families for God’s coming judgment on this country.

One problem is the left has been brainwashing the population for 40 plus years, now we are reaping the harvest we have sown.

We have been sold out by both parties, fake conservatives like, Romney, all the Bushes, McCain and now even Coryan of Texes

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.”

― Alexander Fraser Tytler

“From dependence back into bondage.”

LBJ’s “Great Society” set the ball rolling.

Social media destroyed the rest.

Who can blame him? “I served in the line of fire for *this*? Why did I bother?” he could reasonably be asking right now.

I found William F. Buckley when I was in the 7th grade. Introduced my Dad to Buckley back then. Good times!

Agree. In fact, we’re tipping so fast my new chair is leaning.
