Kayleigh: “I was asked probably 12 questions about the Confederate flag... I didn't receive one question on the deaths in our country this weekend... I didn't receive one question about five children who were killed."
White House media briefing via Daily Caller ^ | July 7 2020 | Kayleigh McAneney

Read the Twitter message. He simply pointed out that NASCAR's decision to ban the Confederate flag was one of the factors driving their miserable ratings.

Ban Confederate flags at a NASCAR race? Isn't that like banning ice in the National Hockey League?

Yet the have zero issue with Biden.

2020 and to this very day the DNC is running a Confederate flag sympathizer for President.

Biden’s best friend and political mentor Frtiz Hollings, placed the Confederate Flag on the State House in South Carolina!

Wouldn’t they have to disable the smoke detectors first?

Do you suppose she could pose questions to the reporters in the room, and stop the progress of the press conference until answers came forth.

“discussion” is part of the definition of “conference”.

That number is a sliding total that may not be correct by the end of the newscast.

I tweeted out a few weeks ago that I was done following NASCAR, after decades of being a serious fan because they now allow team members to kneel during opening ceremonies and disrespect our American flag.

You would not believe the vile responses I got, hundreds of them. Racist was the nicest thing I was called.

Screw them. I’m done.

I also appreciated Trump’s speech about Wallace. He owes a big apology.

He sure has improved though. His career average finish is 24th, but since he set himself up as the token untouchable, everyone is afraid to race him hard. His average finish since then is about 11th including a top ten yesterday.

Playing the race card is affecting competition.

“The Flag is within the History of the South...It is not the History of Slavery.”

Yup.

Also, it was NOT a national flag: It was a battle flag.

he didn’t defend the confederate flag, but someone’s right to fly it.

speech that is agreeable does not need protecting.

bubba wallace has a right to his opinion, but not the right to end someone else’s desire to display it. NASCAR will attempt to ban it, but they will lose bigly if they try.

I like that you are too clueless to see that Trump uses asymmetrical tactics on his opponents. This is another of those occasions.

Controversies, especially ones that are already in his favor, are tools you and the MSM still can’t successfully fight against.

he was defending the people’s right to wave it.

freedom of speech.

and as lincoln said in his 2nd inaugural address... with malice towards none.

let them have their heritage. it is their right in a free society. the only thing that isn’t a right in a free society is the right not to be offended.

I graduated from college in the mid 90s. PC was just starting to become a thing in the early to mid 90s. A lot of us students scoffed at it openly. I remember one or two of my profs being defensive about it the disdain we had for it.

Millenials and especially Gen Z may have been gullible enough to swallow that garbage. Gen X sure wasn’t.

It was not widespread in the 1970s, but I can assure you it was there. In fact, W.F. Buckley wrote about this scourge at Yale in the 1940s!! The elite universities is where this bug first showed up in the 1940s and 1950s (Yale, Princeton, Columbia, etc.) and then spread to other places and eventually the smaller colleges by the 1980s and 1990s.

For example, Herbert Marcuse, one of the principal proponents of the Frankfurt school of neo-Marxist philosophy, had a glittering tenure at several US universities, beginning in the early 1950s, first at Columbia University, then at Harvard University. Marcuse worked at Brandeis University from 1958 to 1965, then at the University of California San Diego until his retirement.

The conversion is now complete.

[[You would not believe the vile responses I got, hundreds of them.]]

another tweet might be appropriate “Thanks for proving my point folks- this is the kind of vile crap I’m leaving behind- good riddence-”
