My country is under attack. I cannot remain silent any longer. The words and actions of some of my fellow Americans are viciously tearing at the fabric of this Republic. Every day I hear, see, and read about the hatred, unfounded accusations, venomous attitudes, unfounded blame and distortions from citizens, including even some from Congress.
President Trump is NOT a racist. There has been nothing he has said or done that even mildly suggests he is. But the propaganda machines (once known as news outlets) know how to frenzy up the populace with their insidious slanders and suggestions He had nothing to do with the actions of evil people in El Paso, Dayton or anywhere else.
EVERY DAY FOR MANY, MANY DECADES these horrendous acts are carried out by people in all parts of this nation. The only ones responsible are the ones committing the crimes. My own sister was murdered by a stranger. We did not look for a scapegoat, but rightly held responsible the person who took her life. Also, we did not blame the instrument used to end her life, but the human who wielded that instrument.
Why has the opposition to President Trump, and those who voted for him, gone mad? 1 believe a large part of this attack on the president and his backers is this: The Change America Agenda of the opposition has been interrupted by this administration which believes in adhering to the Constitution. They are determined to have: open borders, increased gun control (which only impacts honest law abiding gun owners), FREE everything (socialism which has NEVER succeeded), support for sanctuary cities, abortion right up to time for the child to be born, paying reparations, EXTREME climate change programs, cutbacks in U.S. military spending and more, and more, and more!
There is no way I could ever support the opposition’s goals. But it is their right to have those goals. It is also my right to stand with President Trump, and to support the foundation laid for America by our Founding Fathers.
None of us should ever resort to the hatred which is being exposed in full view now. Perhaps DECEPTION is the deadliest weapon, as many Americans are now deceived and manipulated by lies.
Thank You, President Trump, for serving our country as a true Leader of Freedom, based on our Constitution. I pray for you and your family, realizing those who want to destroy your legitimate presidency are now openly gnashing their teeth in hatred and hoping to destroy you.
