'The Government You Elect Is the Government You Deserve'
Town Hall ^ | 29 Nov 2023 | Mark Lewis

Posted on 11/29/2023 5:08:25 PM PST by Rummyfan

I know that the main reason communist countries do not hold elections is because those in power realize they would be voted out of power by the people who don’t like to be starved, tortured, oppressed, shot, or have their guts cut out of their insides. Communists love power and, as long as they can control the military, they can keep it. Elections are for “useful idiots.”

And there is actually some truth to the final sentence in the above paragraph—at least in the eyes of communists. And, as much as I hate to agree with them about anything...

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson recently blamed “right-wing extremists” for his city’s problems. “They’re still mad that a black man is free in this country.” Unbelievable. Well, no, it’s not. Besides the fact that there probably aren’t ten “right-wing extremists” in the entire city of Chicago, it’s hard to think of words, in any human language, to describe the utter buffoonery of what Johnson said. I’m not even going to try; I don’t want to tax my brain thinking of proper epithets. I don’t have to, you can see it for yourself.

...

“The government you elect is the government you deserve”—Thomas Jefferson.

Chicago deserves Brandon Johnson because they elected him. The citizens of Chicago have exactly the kind of city they asked for, and they have absolutely no one to blame but themselves. “Right-wing extremists” are not the problem in Chicago. If it weren’t so serious, that would be hilariously, uproaringly funny. If Brandon Johnson really believes that, really believes that it is the “right-wing” in America who doesn’t want a “black man” to be “free in this country”...well, then, Chicago is getting what it warrants. The sad thing is, so many people are losing their lives in Chicago...

They elected him; they can live with him. Or wise up and vote with their feet.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson lives on the plantation and is carrying out the bidding of his white masters.

It amazes me how many FReepers still think there are fair elections ANYWHERE in this country anymore.

They gave the boot to Lightfoot only to election Brandon? Riiiiggghhht... Or perhaps maybe the CHEATS got rid of Lightfoot and then the CHEATS replaced her with Brandon knowing he would be even more leftist?

Okay, how about this. The government you let get sworn into office is the government you deserve.

Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. H. L. Mencken

Bait and switch takes a unique twist.

““They’re still mad that a black man is free in this country.”

The Republican Party was created to free the slaves and was and is pleased to have done so.
