Either the Party that kowtows to those who wantonly kill Americans
Or the man who is on the side of the family of those murdered by them
I say “The Man” in Trumps case because there is no question who makes the decisions in his campaign, and I say the party because it was the Democrat party of Obama that demanded this, Biden’s no more in charge than I am.
It’s your choice which philosophy you want to rule you, choose wisely and may you be happy in your choice.
If you haven’t seen RFK Jr’s State of the Union Speech do so now. It you’re under 40 it’s likely the greatest political speech you will ever hear in your lifetime.
This is the type of speech that changes votes, and the reason it’s that type of speech is that is:
For someone like me it reminds me of my youth when such beliefs were the norm, Donald Trump vowed to make America Great Again and he pretty much kept that promise as President, Robert Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr. in this speech reminded us WHY America was great in the first place and has done so at a time when we as a nation have forgotten it. In my youth Americans believed this, not republicans, not democrats AMERICANS believed this as the base belief of the country, before we allowed the Marxists into the schools.
If I thought for one moment that Kennedy would act wisely on the culture war issues: Abortion, Transgenderism and DEI, then I would have let myself be carried away by this speech to the days of my youth and change my vote in the general. Frankly given that I live in blue Massachusetts it might be strategic to consider such a vote as Kennedy would be more likely to win this state than Trump.
But in the end Abortion “Trumps” all with me because that’s a question of the soul plus I don’t believe personally in strategic voting so barring something like Trump dropping dead (he is in fact very old) and being replaced by Haley or Noam (who has been a not so much closet supporter of pushing Transgenderism until the VP talk came) I’ll have to pass on RFK Jr.
But if you choose not to I completely understand.
Closing thought: If you think the Obama team (Let’s stop pretending it’s the ‘Biden’ team) was determined to keep Secret Service Protection away from RFK Jr. before they’re damn well going to make sure he doesn’t have it now. Unless of course the primary job of said team was to either kill him or allow him to be killed.
I’m old enough to remember when that final sentence would have been unthinkable to me.
When I saw this video:
The vast majority of the people I work with have Spanish as their first language. They came here a decade or more ago. I don’t know if they came legally or not at the time but many if not most are now American citizens and they are scared for their jobs, their managers are scared for their jobs and as a guy about to hit 61 who had planned to work till 70 I’m scared for my job.
Even with COVID four years ago we were not.
And let me note, we are scared for our jobs after our company closed two warehouses in our area and laid off every temp we had.
Without a turnaround of the economy I don’t see how we avoid either further layoffs or a reduction of our workweek to below 40 hours.
That the democrats are polling over 40% is beyond me and I would bet real money that a lot of the folks were I am are going to vote for Trump because they know who was in charge when they were able to make a living and who was not.
They don’t care about mean tweets they care about feeding their kids and virtue signaling stuff like this
The only reason why I have no idea who will win in November is:
14 years ago this January Robert Stacy McCain was in Fitchburg Massachusetts with me covering the Scott Brown Race. Way back then he was a contributor to the HotAir GreenRoom and filed this report available now only through the wayback machine:
Annie DeMartino served 20 years as a city council member here before retiring from office last year. An Irish immigrant, she turned out in the snow to vote this morning in Ward 6 at St. Bernard’s Catholic School. A self-described “diehard Democrat,” DeMartino voted for Martha Coakley, but listen to what she says about the Senate election:
Alas the adobe video is not available but Annie’s key quote was: ‘Mr. Brown Has the Edge Today’
Well it’s almost fifteen years later and today at the supermarket I was in line waiting to order a sub for DaWife and who comes over to see me pushing her carriage but Annie DeMartino. She’s 87 years old but still helping those in need picking up a meal for a shut-in and volunteering at the senior center, which I am now old enough to go to if I wished.
The subject of the coming election came up with Super Tuesday two days away and she asked my opinion. I told her:
At that point I asked her what her contacts were saying as she was deep into democrat politics since the 1970’s and she answered: “All my contacts are dead.” This is what happens when you live long enough and she talked about how hard it can be when you outlive everybody you know.
I have no doubt that she will still pull the lever for Biden on Tuesday. There are a lot of people who have left the Democrat party as I did but no matter how much they talk “white privilege ” this Irishwoman who knows what poor really means and still carries her brogue isn’t about to be pushed out of HER party no matter who comes in saying what.
If the Democrat Party was still populated by folks like Annie rather than the loonies who run it now I suspect a lot of people who left might still be there.
