How dare liberals compare President Trump’s rhetoric to these whacked out liberals who’re harassing and threatening Republican politicians and officials. I know it’s a shock we finally have a president who’ll stick up for himself. God knows, conservatives suffered through eight years of George W. Bush. That man was the mainstream media’s pinata. Trump refuses to be their bitch and they can’t handle it.
Since when has self-defense become belligerence? Does anyone remember President Barack Obama’s war cry, “If they bring a knife, we bring a gun” ? I didn’t hear outrage from the media about that.
I have a question, did Republicans confront liberals in the public square and provoke a fight? Did we surround Lois Lerner’s house for harassing the Tea Party? How many Obama officials were kicked out of restaurants and theaters for their acts of hostility to the American people? None!
The editors at the Charlotte Observer have the audacity to equate President Trump’s rhetoric with the lawless behavior of liberals. Here is an excerpt:
It might also seem necessary to liberals to take such drastic action in the face of an administration that tears children from parents, and a president who so often disregards decency. So said congresswoman Maxine Waters to a California crowd over the weekend. “If you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd, and you push back on them, and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere,” Waters urged.
But such behavior shouldn't feel satisfying, and it's not necessary. It's liberals trying to beat Donald Trump by becoming Donald Trump.
It wasn't long ago that these same Democrats fretted about Trump's crassness and willingness to demean anyone who dared disagree with him. They and we worried that his bullying would do more harm to political discourse, and that's exactly what's happening, as nastiness has bled from the political fringe into the political mainstream.
Certainly, that's been encouraged by members and supporters of the Trump administration, who regularly ridicule the press and political opponents. All the more reason to punch back, say progressives, who contend that the only way to defeat Trump is to fight bile with bile. But that's not true, as liberals themselves showed last week by getting Trump to back down from his policy of separating immigrant children from parents at the border. How'd they do it? By shining a light on injustice, by flooding social media, by swaying public opinion and eventually Republicans in Washington with the force and volume of their voices.
The editors at the Charlotte Observer are delusional. I got news for these morons, you didn’t win. These illegal aliens weren’t released into the general population, which is what libtards want. Nice try.
You gotta love it. These people are the bullies and they don’t see it. We have suffered through their thuggish behavior for decades and when we finally have a president who refuses to have sand kicked in his face, they consider him a bully.
Yeah, I don’t think so.
