Hope vs. Hate

The Left has nothing to offer but contempt and empty virtue signals.

For the past four years, leftists have had nothing but hate for our president. It’s not just Donald Trump — they hate anyone with a different opinion than their own. Dare to disagree with them, and you’re on their radar. And they are not a very forgiving group.

Time after time when a conservative is blocked from social media, the response is predictable. The common answer: It was a glitch in an algorithm. Curious why it seldom seems to happen to a leftist? The other response is the blocked conservative violated some vague “community standard.” This too never seems to happen to a leftist. They can threaten to kill their opponents, burn down cities, and generally promise mayhem if they don’t get their way, but they’re never blocked.

As we get closer to Election Day, their rhetoric is getting more and more hostile. They hate the flag, the Constitution, law enforcement in general, and conservatives especially. And if you’re a religious person (any religion other than Islam), you will be a target of their venom. How did we get here in such a short time? From September 11, 2001, when our elected officials sang “God Bless America” on the Capitol steps, to the venom spewed by Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senator Chuck Schumer and others literally every day?

First it was Russia collusion, then a bogus attempt at impeachment. Now it’s the president’s fault that China unleashed a deadly virus on the entire planet and more than 200,000 Americans are dead because of him. Millions of people are out of work because of the president. This confuses me because leftists constantly demand the president follow the science. Much of the country was literally shut down because the medical/science people said to do that. But it’s easier to blame Trump.

This past weekend, many Americans were disgusted when the Leftmedia was expressing hope that Trump would die when he was diagnosed with COVID. Can you see that happening if Barack Obama was president?

Now we’re hearing leftists threatening the entire country if they don’t get the results they want in the upcoming election. “Nice country you have there. We’d hate to see anything happen to it!” Actually, they’re not being that nice. With foul language we won’t repeat here, they’re threatening to burn the whole system down if they lose the election.

President Trump wants to protect our First and Second Amendment rights and continue to appoint judges who use the Constitution as their guide. He wants to stop the slaughter of preborn babies and rebuild our military to defend us against the threats we face with China, Russia, North Korea, and Iran. The Left has no problem with any of these countries.

As a former Marine combat veteran, I don’t take threats very well. I may be “older,” but I’m not going to bow to the Left’s threats to my family’s freedoms. President Trump is a flawed person, as am I. There has only been ONE perfect person in history. I voted for Trump hoping he would do what he said. He has! I will go for the HOPE option the president has expressed from day one.
