Hate is not a platform
To the Editor:
The large sign on the Asheville highway that was apparently put up by a rare “civil” local democrat got me thinking. The sign said, “Fellow democrats…. Move back to the center before it’s too late.” That’s a great message for local democrats and voters as their party has turned into the party of hate, violence, and socialism.
The field of candidates looking to run for president in 2020 now include porn lawyer Avenatti, Cory “Spartacus” Booker, Socialists Warren and Bernie Sanders plus a half dozen more leftist wannabes. I don’t really believe this will help win an election as most common sense liberals and conservatives both think socialism is a terrible idea.
The recent Supreme Court hearing was a disgrace to any fair-minded American of either party. The opposition to Kavanaugh was based on hate and completely uncorroborated claims. It brought back memories of a lynching or worse. The good news is that all Americans were able to see how national democrats have become. They incited the worst in their party, like their “violent” arm “Antifa,” and the violent demonstrators that are anti-police, and anti-law and order. It’s the new “mob rule” tactic they think will win for them.
I think it’s time for all democrats to look in the mirror and decide who and what they are going to stand for. Will it be open borders and elimination of ICE? Or is it the violence that many on the left call for and support? Or is it the total lack of civility they show when dealing with the majority party? The leftists call for “gun control” for you and I while they are protected by armed guards we pay for. Their continued support for abortion and the selling of the baby parts should disturb and disgust everyone.
The “Resist and Obstruct Democrats” have become so blinded with their hate that they haven’t seen the changes Trump has made in the last two years. The lowest unemployment rate in years, and millions of people back to work and off the welfare rolls, paying taxes instead of taking tax money. From 2008 to 2016 opportunity disappeared with the jobs. Now with growing opportunity, we see “hiring” signs and wages going up everywhere. There’s nothing a socialist hates more than someone that provides for themselves and isn’t depending on government handouts.
Socialism has never worked. Socialists and todays “progressives” think they know best what’s good for you. If you disagree with them, you will have to be dealt with. Don’t let a once civil and decent party turn into a socialist society that doesn’t raise people up but only can hold them down and enslave them.
