Patriotic Opposition to Donald Trump
New York Times ^ | DEC. 12, 2016 | Charles M. Blow

Posted on 12/12/2016 6:14:43 AM PST by artichokegrower

Nothing is safe or sacrosanct in Donald Trump’s developing governance team, and America had better start being alarmed about it and moving to actively oppose it.

Let’s take the tally:

He has chosen a man hostile to immigrants and with a complicated — to put it mildly — history on race to be attorney general.

He has chosen a man who is anti-abortion, pro-fetal “personhood,” and anti-Obamacare to be secretary of health and human services.

He has chosen a man who has criticized paid sick-leave policies and opposes increasing the federal minimum wage to lead the Department of Labor.

He has chosen a climate change denier and anti-environmental-regulation crusader to lead the Environmental Protection Agency.

He has chosen a vocal proponent of school vouchers to run the Department of Education.


If you add an end to open borders is kinda sums up why we all voted for him

These knuckleheads still don’t know why Trump was elected or why they lost big.

There’s a white Republican in office. Time to dust off the Dissent is the highest form of Patriotism bumper stickers that we put away when it was declared illegal to think differently than the liberals.

Funny how opposition only become patriotic when a Republican is POTUS. To the NYT, there was no such thing as Patriotic opposition to Obama. In their mind, any disagreement with Obama was rooted in racism.

Patriotic Opposition to Donald Trump

Any opposition to a President Trump is NOT patriotic. Trump is an American vs the one we have now and the Slimes thought he was wonderful.

Mr. Blow: When have you and your ilk NOT been “vocal” about your disdain for ANYONE who believes that putting America’s interests first -domestically and internationally- is the BEST way to positively influence the world?

Because the recount in PA and WI cannot change the outcome.

If you ignore the fact that Trump gained votes in WI and pretend the Dems could cheat their way into flipping WI and PA to Hillary, Trump still has 276 EV which gives him the Presidency.

“The time for voting has elapsed”. “Elapsed is the wrong word. Correct grammar is “passed” or “has passed”. Back to English 101, guys.

I’d believe it was patriotic opposition except that I don’t see any patriots opposing. Show me one of those opposing and I’ll believe you, NY Slimes.
