“Responding to widespread public pressure”
Responding to pressure from people she admires, which includes, apparently, the press, northeastern liberal media, and our communist president and his government.
If you think that burying a flag that is historically American (like it or not) is going to be enough, it won’t be. If you think wiping away everything named after “Lee” or “Jackson” or “Davis” and renaming them for communist heroes is going be enough, it won’t.
If you think that melting down every last statue representing the Confederate era, it won’t be.
This is about dividing today’s America. This is about excluding the South from political dialog - because we are more conservative - more American - than our government prefers.
Go ahead, do your worst. America will be saved, if it is to be saved, by a Southerner. No other region has the respect for what America actually IS - manifested by putting it in to action more than the South.
Nikki Haley has shown herself to be a short-sighted politician. She still won’t be welcome in the liberal circles she wishes to impress. She’s a woman, she’s got brown skin, and she’s “foreign” - so they will always hate her.
Contrast that with the citizens of South Carolina who elected her to lead them as Governor.
If she can’t see that, she’s self-immolating as a political figure - and betraying her fellow Southerners by somehow linking a deranged killer with a historically American flag.
Well said.
