This is why I voted for Trump

There could be no better place to celebrate America’s independence than beneath this magnificent, incredible majestic mountain and monument to the greatest Americans who have ever lived. Today we pay tribute to the exceptional lives and extraordinary legacies of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Teddy Roosevelt. I am here as your president to proclaim before the country and before the world, this monument will never be desecrated, these heroes will never be defamed, their legacy will never ever be destroyed, their achievements will never be forgotten, and Mount Rushmore will stand forever as an eternal tribute to our forefathers and to our freedom.

We gather tonight to herald the most important day in the history of nations, July 4th, 1776. At those words, every American heart should swell with pride, every American family should cheer with delight, and every American patriot should be filled with joy because each of you lives in the most magnificent country in the history of the world and it will soon be greater than ever before.

Our founders launched not only a revolution in government, but a revolution in the pursuit of justice, equality, liberty, and prosperity. No nation has done more to advance the human condition than the United States of America and no people have done more to promote human progress than the citizens of our great nation. It was all made possible by the courage of 56 patriots who gathered in Philadelphia 244 years ago and signed the Declaration of Independence. They enshrined a divine truth that changed the world forever when they said, “All men are created equal.” These immortal words set in motion the unstoppable march of freedom. Our founders boldly declared that we are all endowed with the same divine rights, given us by our Creator in Heaven, and that which God has given us, we will allow no one ever to take away ever.

1776 represented the culmination of thousands of years of Western civilization and the triumph of not only spirit, but of wisdom, philosophy, and reason. And yet, as we meet here tonight, there is a growing danger that threatens every blessing our ancestors fought so hard for, struggled, they bled to secure. Our nation is witnessing a merciless campaign to wipe out our history, defame our heroes, erase our values, and indoctrinate our children. Angry mobs are trying to tear down statues of our founders, deface our most sacred memorials, and unleash a wave of violent crime in our cities. Many of these people have no idea why they’re doing this, but some know what they are doing. They think the American people are weak and soft and submissive, but no, the American people are strong and proud and they will not allow our country and all of its values, history, and culture to be taken from them.

One of their political weapons is cancel culture, driving people from their jobs, shaming dissenters, and demanding total submission from anyone who disagrees. This is the very definition of totalitarianism, and it is completely alien to our culture and to our values and it has absolutely no place in the United States of America.

This attack on our liberty, our magnificent liberty must be stopped and it will be stopped very quickly. We will expose this dangerous movement, protect our nation’s children from this radical assault, and preserve our beloved American way of life. In our schools, our newsrooms, even our corporate boardrooms, there is a new far-left fascism that demands absolute allegiance. If you do not speak its language, perform its rituals, recite its mantras, and follow its commandments, then you will be censored, banished, blacklisted, persecuted, and punished. It’s not going to happen to us.

You voted for Trump because his message of racism and bigotry resonates with you.
 
There is some of that, but labeling every person who disagrees with you in that manner is divisive and stupid. That's your club. Enjoy your charter membership.

He wasn’t talking about Biden or whoever: he was referring to the white/black thugs who are lawlessly destroying monuments that have nothing to do with the confederacy. And at least *appears* to have more to do with the founding of this country.

It’s no coincidence he made the speech in front of Mount Rushmore.

I think Democrats made a grave political mistake by not marginalizing these characters.
 
Trump's supporters care more about a few statues than about a pandemic, an economy that the CBO said may take a decade to fully bring back, and racial strife that is forcing most Americans with an ounce of introspection to consider who we really are.

It's the most collective state of denial I think I've ever seen. That speech was unreal from a world leader whose country is suffering right now. It was an embarrassment.

Desperate Trump is counting on generating enough emotional ideological hype to carry him to victory in November.

Every Dem has condemned the rioters and vandals, and the violence.

You always think the Dems are making a "big mistake." Funny how while you say that, Biden's lead in the polls grows.
 
You do have a point. Quoted text should be accredited.
I take it you mean the quoted text in the OP. Well, probably time has expired for it to be edited.
So you could PM the dude and explain, or spam the report button.

My bad.

I copied it off a blogger and was less interested in posting his opinion on it than the speech itself. And again, I thought it would be self-evident. Only one poster ‘didn’t get it’.

But aren’t presidential speeches public property lol?

the racial strife is caused by looters/rioters. Everyone was onboard for the Kirby protests
where i got off was the violence and re-writing of history -and make no mistake that's what is it.

NYTimes is very influential for leftists -what do they push? 1619 Project -do you even know what that is?
It's not a "few statues". as usual you are "this is fine" about it. congrats on being Woke ( but not awakened)

None of that really matters in the end the demographics favor the Democrats the Republicans continue to be marginalized with every passing day more right-wing boomers go to their grave

no they haven't. they pay some lip service and then line up behind BLM and many for ANTIFA as well.
The statues are just the overt part. The radical agenda where the USA is inherently racist is MS Dem
 
I do get it, but the brush is WAY too broad. Trump places the label on anyone who disagrees with him. I'm sure it would be placed on me, and his followers here do the same, but I am NOTHING like what he described in the speech. As for being a traitor...... I was accused of the same thing when I voted for an Independent instead of the Democratic candidate for Governor in Minnesota. I actually penned an editorial explaining why I voted as I did, and why no one should have to apologize or justify their vote. It was published, and the guy I voted for called me to thank me. There you go.
I think he's describing the Far Left, not everyone who disagrees him. I could be wrong:dunno:. He's basically using the far left as a political weapon to get reelected. No different than dems in general using the far right as a weapon. I say in general because Biden doesn't appear to be campaigning.
Extremists do not help their cause.

The mayor of Minneapolis sat in the office and condemned CHAZ lol?

You didn’t really expect that to work, did you?

No, he was referring to everyone that disagrees with him. I find it fascinating that you are so concerned with civil war history, but want to whitewash everything else. Mount Rushmore was erected on land that is sacred to Native Americans. It was designed by an overt racist, and it celebrates at least two slave owners. That doesn't make it racist, but it is a history that you want to ignore. Because you are a member of the Trump Cult, and you support a man who is a white supremacist. Own it instead of pussyfooting around like a coward.

So..what's left?

Braindead brainwashed New Red Guard idiot fucktards?

They will not win.

How many times have you heard Trump say 'the radical Democrat Party'? I've lost count. Democrats just need to use the fact that a white supremacist is the opposing candidate. It couldn't be easier.

Bingo.

Trump would be an idiot not to use them. It would be like passing up a low hanging curve ball over the plate. You crush those.
 
Earl, you've also have committed typos.

It’s not a typo to use an adverb where a preposition is required, Trumper.

I only do this when one of the far left loons starts throwing the “dumb, uneducated, stupid” words around.
 
Boo!

Can't remember where I've heard that before. Oh, yeah - every single Presidential race in my lifetime.
stupid.
when did radicals drive the agenda before? Even back in the 60's Weathermen abd such were condemned by anti-war protests.

Your sig needs to be changed to THIS IS FINE
