“At this point in this struggle, it’s the so-called patriots who are the ones who are smashing down every American institution….It’s the so-called patriots, the ones who come out here with their Tea Party and the flags and call themselves patriots — they’re the ones that are smashing down our unions, smashing down public education, smashing down every American institution that we built, and our parents built, and our grandparents built to make this country great.” Institutions didn't make America great. Americans made America great. Hard working, honorable, responsible Americans who not only worked hard, saved for the future, but fought our wars when necessary, to insure we remained a free people. This a$$ hat wants to tear all that down and replace it with socialism. Well, he can go to Hell.
Jones knows full well that the institutions of socialism and affirmative action have failed and are under attack, so he is trying to conflate them with all other American institutions in hopes that the institutions of retribution and redistribution can hang on a little while longer.
Socialist are either afraid or just plain stupid (or both).
"Take a good look at Europe and California, Van...socialism is dying."
