The Patriot Post® · Reader Comments
Editor’s Note: Thank you for sending comments on our news, policy, and opinion — we review every one of them. Here are a few reader perspectives, which don’t necessarily reflect those of The Patriot Post.
“Thank you for your unequivocal support for Israel and Israeli citizens. Israel is an American interest, not a Democrat or Republican football. Thank you for clearly defining the evil that Israel is against and sharing some of the horror our allies are experiencing so Americans can properly empathize. May we have only good tidings to share going forward, and may God bring peace to the world.” —New York
“Every word of Alexander’s analysis is both informed and accurate. Obama and his puppet Biden have enabled Iran and the terrorists it sponsors to attack Israel and further discredit America’s standing in the world.” —Wisconsin
“Indeed, Communist China is watching, calculating, and patiently waiting. All who deny this are delusional. Policies that fail to account for China’s intent to dominate world geopolitics before 2050 jeopardize our national security. Since Mao Tse Tung, China has been fighting a ‘100-Year Marathon,’ methodically setting key elements of its insidious trap to gain control of the world economy. A slow, patient, strategic advance — buying lands; infiltrating institutions; controlling pharmaceuticals, solar panels, lithium, and trade markets; and devaluing the U.S. dollar and influence. It is its ‘boiled frog’ strategy — and the awakening will be rude.” —Missouri
Re: A Border Wall of Blame-Shifting
“Another excellent analysis. I was happy to see you knew about the border materials being sold at auction. It seems that very few do. The next excuse will be that we could not get materials or a contractor and this will last well into next year. Then we shall see if they come up with a Plan B to hide their incompetence.” —Michigan
“Now that the Democrats have been yelled and screamed at by their own people because of the overwhelming damage they are causing with their open-border policy, all of a sudden they need the wall. Totalitarian fools.” —Massachusetts
“A wall is simply more virtue signaling for the Right. Someone said show me a 12’ wall and I’ll show you a 16’ ladder. The only thing that will really work is to make coming to the U.S. unattractive. Legislation that says if you are in the country illegally: 1. No work permits. 2. No shelter. 3. No food. 4. No school for your kids. 5. No citizenship. 6. Emergency medical care only. When the word gets back home that illegals are left to beg for food, the northward exodus will end.” —Nevada
“So, Hillary is all in on reeducation camps for us ‘basket of irredeemable deplorables.’ Can you imagine how COVID restrictions would have been with her as president?” —Oregon
“When one becomes an enemy of the state, the state becomes an enemy. I seem to recall there was a kerfuffle along these lines back in 1776.” —Georgia
“While I’m not naive about Matt Gaetz or his motivations, Kevin McCarthy knew that his speakership could be called into no confidence by a single member as part of the deal that brought him into the office. And yet he came out of the negotiations with the White House with an even worse deal than the one he had gone in to counter with. The Democrats, of course, would love nothing better than to support similar challenges to a whole string of speakers, since it’s a bad look for the GOP. But if the next speaker emerges chastened by the example set with McCarthy, that’ll be a good thing. The point of punishment isn’t solely about the future benefit of the person punished, but also about the lesson it serves for others.” —Georgia
Re: The ‘No Evidence’ Impeachment Inquiry
“Biden doesn’t need direct financial benefit to be complicit in illegal behavior. The Biden family benefited, which is a direct benefit to Biden. If the Republicans can’t close the deal on this impeachment in the House, they need to go.” —Massachusetts
“The falling away from religion is foretold in the Bible. 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3: ‘Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition.’” —North Carolina
“Atheists deny they worship; yet they worship their own or others’ abilities, ideals, and philosophies. Worship seeks a truth that completes the mystery of existing. We don’t know what we don’t know, and whether we acknowledge our finitude or not makes no difference. Denial of this truth is dangerous: ‘It is appointed unto every man to die once, and after that comes judgment’ (Hebrews 10:12). The fools says there is no God. Wise men still seek Him.” —Missouri
“Those with faith hold on and endure till the end because there is a LIGHT at the end of the tunnel. Pray for those who can’t see the light, because they are blinded by the darkness of lies and deceits that are running amok in the world. Pray this poll changes with more Christians emerging from the valleys to the mountaintop to spread and show Jesus Christ for who He truly is, not what the other religious say He is.” —Illinois
