That won's stop Democrats from lying and pandering, and playing the class-envy card. And what's worse, there are an awful lot of lazy deadbeats that will buy into the concept that they deserve as much as people who actually worked for what they have. Dems are counting on it.

No BLM

No war on police
No kneeling in sports
No bans on Christianity in public schools
No transvestites lecturing kindergarten children on gender ideology
No bathroom confusion
No race riots
No mandated Islam teachings in all public schools.
No support of Islamic Sharia Law inside the United States.
No attempts to legalize pedophilia in America.
No destruction of historical monuments & military cemeteries .
No giving drivers licenses to illegal aliens
No stripping veterans of 6 billion dollars & allocating it all to illegals
No blocking freeways
No celebrating & cheering when America is criticized
No apology tours



The above is the exact reason on why Trump was elected
BLM was not a thing in 2016. The constitution grants the right to peacefully assemble. No question, some protests get highjacked by extremists.

The ANTIFA Movement lacking centralized leadership, is nearly 100 years old. Those into it, have issues with authority and governments, here and in Europe. ANTIFA surged under Trump.

Radicalized Islamic people persist throughout the world.

There is a huge diff between Police Reform and a war on police.

Kneeling in sports became a thing on Trump’s watch.

I am unaware of a ban on Christianity in public schools. Worshiping has no place in public schools.

I am unaware of trans people lecturing kindergarten children. Maybe I missed this or maybe it was a one off, somewhere.

Bathroom confusion persists.

There have been race riots in the US for serious decades. My father engaged in the first televised race riot in 1951 ( before my time) when 4000 white males rioted because a black family moved into the neighborhood. It was the intent of the mob to take out the family and destroy the building.

I am unaware of mandated Islam teachings in all public schools. Given more than 2 billion people identify as Muslim, ignoring serves no purpose.

Absolutely nothing prevents anyone from voicing support of Sharia or any religious law. . Religious laws and courts predate the US by thousands of years. Federal and state laws in the US supersede religious courts.

Absolutely nothing prevents an ATTEMPT to legalize pedophilia in America.

Destruction of historical monuments became a thing under Trump’s watch. Nothing any POTUS can do to stop people intent on destroying, from doing so.

The issuance of driver’s licenses is controlled by the state. 15 states issue to undocumented people. This includes Utah.

I am unaware of $6 billion being stripped from veterans and being given to illegals. Did I miss something?

Protesters blocking freeways once again became a thing under Trump. Not much any POTUS can do when that happens.

Some people celebrate and cheer when America is criticized. Been happening for 244 years. No POTUS can stop it. Some of the greatest celebrations/ cheers occurred over the never ending fight for civil rights and the Viet Nam War. Thank Gawd.

Failing to apologize does not make it ( whatever it is) right.

POTUS is not King.

( I am neither a Trump or Biden supporter)

I don’t attribute or blame any POTUS or party for my outcomes.

I do care about Federal and state debt.

Also what a weaponized IRS looks like. And what an almost 100% biased media looks like. And what weaponizing race and gender looks like. It's not a good look.................
Whoa, 100% biased media?

Hillary only got 96% of media campaign donations.

BLM was indeed “a thing” in 2016. Obama met with BLM leaders and invited them to the White House in 2016. The organization was actually established in 2013.

When two cops are sitting in their squad car and get shot in the head, that is indeed a war on police. When looters and rioters spray paint anti police propaganda, which is reinforced by professional athletes, that is a war on the police. When the Democrat Party Platform targets police policies, that is a war on the police. Five LEOs were shot dead in Dallas a few years ago. That is not “police reform.”

Kaepernick first knelt on September 1, 2016. Obama defended him on September 5, 2016.

Trump hadn’t even been elected yet.

Are you worse off when they get more wealth?

You act like wealth is finite. If they create more wealth and every one is better off, then how is that a problem?

YES -- and it would be unbelievable to me that so many Democrats "don't get it" except that we see the proof of some of the above insanity and some NEW ones every single day now.

I have no quarrel with immigrants coming into this country legally and I am 100% in equality FOR ALL, but I do have a problem with what is going on with the U.S. today, described so well and so succinctly above!. (I am sure the list could be much longer, however!)

And, YES, most of the above has happened since Trump was elected, and much of that was due, I think, to the downturn in traditional values. By traditional values, I mean (1) showing respect to others, even if you disagree with them; and (2) the idea that people should earn what they get, with government hand-outs only to those citizens (or at least those non-residents who are here legally) who need assistance through no fault of their own.

I have no problem with any charity giving to anyone they choose, but I do resent my tax dollars going to people who, in my opinion, are not deserving of them. (And, btw, I am even more against giving tax breaks to the wealthy!) And I very strongly disapprove and dislike violent protesters, both right-wing and left-wing; and I despise racists of any color, nationality or ancestry.

Come on, now.
All we can do is warn you against the reality, if you refuse to believe we have no control. You can lead a horse to water, you can't make him drink. Communists love people who don't think it can happen to them, that is how they sneak up on you and before you realize what has happened, it's over.
If Biden is elected, there is a better than even chance America will be under communist control in ten years or under.

It isn't Biden you need to fear, he has no clue who or where he is, it the Marxist leftist who control Joe who will sabvatoge America, AOC, Kamala Harris, Bernie, there are a whole slew of them who's goal it is to get rid of capitalism, religion, all of your rights, they was a communist dictatorship and a country full of slaves..

Be afraid, be very afraid, Don't be foolish enough to believe it can't happen, it is already happening..

I can see that you are far too misguided to be able to help, you best hope is that there are still enough intelligent voters left in the country to return Trump the the W/H and, once again, save America.
Stay strong, we will save you from yourself..
