“Is America ready for that? Are they ready for a woman of color to be President of the United States?” Kamala Harris asked a month before dropping out of the 2020 primaries.
Five years later the consensus is not that Kamala wasn’t ready, but America still wasn’t.
“Kamala Harris didn’t lose, America did. As a nation, we collectively failed her,” John Pavlovitz, a liberal Christian blogger, damned. “This election was not an indictment of Kamala Harris. It was an indictment of America,” Cosmo columnist Jill Filipovic argued.
Americans had the opportunity to elect Kamala. And we had failed to live up to her.
“By every measure, she has demonstrated that she’s ready,” Michelle Obama had warned at a Kamala election rally.. “The real question is, as a country, are we ready for this moment?”
We were not ready.
“There is racial bias in this country, and there is sexism in this country,” Obama adviser David Axelrod told CNN to explain Kamala’s defeat. The racism and sexism in America was so bad that Trump won the votes of 1 in 5 black men and a majority of white suburban women.
If only Latino and black men had been able to overcome their racism, and white women their sexism, we could have had Kamala. But as Michelle told us, we were not good enough for her.
Perhaps one day we will be. And Kamala, along with Hillary Clinton, can wait in the wings, sipping chardonnay and listening to selections from Oprah’s book club until we show that we are ready for them to finally come and save us from ourselves. Decades may pass. Even centuries. But surely one day Americans will finally be ready for a completely inept president.
Until then maybe some other country in the world is ready for Kamala? Finland? Thailand? Somaliland? But not this land where a jealous nation insisted on voting with their wallets instead of understanding the incredible opportunity before them to elect the first black woman.
Herds of angry liberals wander the aisles of organic supermarkets and wonder how millions of people could have ever put their selfish economic interests ahead of a presidential DEI hire.
America’s selfish founders put their desire for cheaper tea ahead of the glory of being ruled by a mad king who talked to trees and their unworthy descendants want cheaper eggs and beef more than they want to listen to a woman of the right race who speaks in word salads.
It cannot be that Kamala failed. DEI hires can never fail, only be failed. Nothing is ever their fault, only that of the systemic racism of the electoral college, the legacy of oppression in Berkeley and the unfair double standard of being expected to state coherent policy positions.
The Democrats also don’t need to consider how they had managed to alienate a swathe of the American public so broad that it included crypto bros, the Amish, Latino men, Chassidic Jews, the tech industry and the rust belt, the black barbershop and the gay bars of Miami. All they need to do is accuse them of being racist sexists or sexist racists who should be ashamed.
Telling the American public that they are bad people for not supporting you is not a winning strategy, as Kamala, Biden, the Obamas and the rest of the Democrats found out when they pivoted to accusing Republican voters of being garbage Nazis who want women to die.
But there are different kinds of winning. There’s the kind where you win a popular referendum of the nation’s citizens and the kind where you dismiss the nation as worthless pieces of garbage.
Or as Nikole Hannah Jones of the revisionist 1619 Project wrote, Kamala lost because “racism and misogyny are embedded in the culture”, “anti-Blackness is deeply embedded in Latino cultures” and white women are “enforcing a white ethnocracy.”
“Black people uniquely understand this nation, and how awful it can get” she concluded.
Or to put it more succinctly, Kamala and Jones are awesome and America sucks.
Nominating a widely disliked politician with approval ratings south of spoiled cheese who could never answer the same question the same way twice could be seen as a purity test. For Kamala Harris, her aides, donors and party, the goal was to win, but for many leftists like Jones, the test was one that we were always meant to fail to justify their burning hatred of America.
Leftist radicalism is part power grab and part test to destruction. Radicals push the country to see how much we will take, not in the hopes that we will genuinely replace Shakespeare with Audre Lorde or agree that being on time is systemic whiteness, but that we will not, and they are suspiciously baffled when we go along with it and then they act as if it’s some racist trick.
Kamala’s defeat is gloriously empowering because it confirms every one of their prejudices.
After a career of failing upward through multiple prosecutorial positions, a brief Senate tenure and an even less well-regarded vice presidency, Kamala finally hit an election where she could not just be promoted based on her identity politics quotient without serious consequences.
And that is where affirmative action usually falls apart. This was where the American people considered the consequences that four years of incompetence in the White House would have on them and refused to give her the job to prove they weren’t racist sexists.
America failed Kamala. It let her believe that life was just showing up while embodying the right quotas, smiling a lot and trying to be relatable to the people she’s used to socializing with.
Now she doesn’t understand what happened.
David Axelrod, Nikole Hannah Jones and the rest of the gang are not entirely wrong. A lot of Americans, including Democrats, who were willing to pander to affirmative action or DEI hires, drew the line at putting Kamala in front of the nuclear button or letting her control the economy.
Equity had a red line. And Kamala was it.
It would have been kinder for Democrats, Republicans and squishies of no particular political denomination not to reward Kamala or ten thousand other DEI hires who fill academia, politics and corporations with positions they are unqualified for to avoid appearing bigoted. Bigotry is not only refusing to hire people because of their race, but also hiring people because of their race.
Biden made no secret of choosing Kamala because he had promised to pick a black woman. Americans refused to hire Kamala to run the country just because she was a black woman.
White, black and Latinos of all ages and sexes did the right non-bigoted thing by Kamala. But nothing in Kamala’s life had led her to expect to be judged on merit rather than on her identity.
America failed Kamala. Now it will have to find her a nice position telling us we’re all bigots.
The Democrats demanded compliance from voters by condemning their identities. More of the voters than before supposedly preferred by not being among the verbally condemned and promised benefits from affirmative discrimination were noticing their lives were worsened by Democrats in power. As a result, the Democrats did not have enough power to fix the election which still has more than one party and the secret ballot.
The electorate has spoke: Kamala “Heels Up” Harris is DEI garbage.
History Books: “How a Tampon Saved America!”
Okay DH, there’s your next book.
It’s the other way around. It is identity politics that has pushed the Democrats way leftward. Blacks are the prime offenders, but women, LGBTQ, Arabs, Asians and other “marginalized” groups are culprits, too.
America did not fail Kamala Toe. She had 4 years to do something and did absolutely nothing and the Americans that get up and go to work everyday, said enough is enough, pack your sh#t and go back OZ.
She is perhaps the least qualified major party candidate in history, she chose a lunatic for her running mate and then was silent for a few weeks to let the media campaign for her. She finally decided to call half the country racist, sexist, fascists and found JOY in that.
Her next is the HR department of a call center telling people about extended car warranties.
… And she isn’t black, BTW. But she is mightily mentally deficient and unqualified. That these people ranting about the majority of the nation who didn’t vote for her can’t see this is mindboggling to me. Do they EVER do any self-assessment? Apparently not.
Not 2 weeks ago I saw a picture of a woman in/from India whose face was remarkably similar to Kammie’s. IMO, Kammie’s daddy was a travelling salesman from India not a Jamaican professor (or whatever he is/was).
Her mom is Indian.
So is she. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/2Qs_UoKjZkE
Old saying “The TRUTH hurts”! AND, the TRUTH is – all people are NOT equal in intelligence, ability, desire, nor ethics! If you just GIVE someone a high paying job because of content of melanin and/or number of holes then you’ve simply rewarded them for something they did not earn! When students are not able to handle the classes then they don’t BELONG in those classes! Now SOME who can’t handle a class in the beginning but works their butt off to handle it is different – they EARNED it due to their HARD WORK! On the contrary, if you take the class and “dumb it down” for the lesser students then you’ve CHEATED the others! The Kamala has BENEFITTED all through her life due to Didn’t Earn IT! And NOW she didn’t get “positioned” to win the HIGHEST OFFICE in the USA and possibly the WORLD! The USA and WORLD should REJOICE in “our failure”!!
Oh she may have “earned” her early political poitions by laying down for another corrupt politician, but she did not deserve it, nor was the position really his to “give”. Her entire career in politics was not earned but stolen, either by her own hands or those of others, also unworthy of the public trust.
It is true justice that has brought her smack hard up against end of her fantasy world.
It is not that we did not deserve her, but that SHE never did deserve us. Glad that fantasy movie is now a wrap.
The sad part is she will get a handsome pension for a VP job she never performed. I know, I know, it could be worse, we could all suffer for four more years with a complete failure at the helm.
Next, she gets promoted to being head of the UN 🙂
thinking the proper question is… why should i not be a bigot? no one on the left is listening to the cries for justice. so, yeah, i will be bigoted. truthfully, its much worse than that. since covid, just about anyone with any expertise is essentially a potential shill. yes, bigotry keeps me alive.
One thing we can always count on Democrats to do is blame somebody else for their failures. They are the whiny kids that nobody plays with because they cry, throw tantrums, try to boss others around, easily become violent when disagreed with, pout, sulk, scream and are regularly in need of Kleenex tissues.and therapeutic support.
Sorry, that’s not racist, sexist, colorist or any other ist–we just won’t buy what they keep selling and they keep thinking putting it in another package will effectively camouflage what’s in it.! They still haven’t figured out that we have BS decoder rings that light up when they tell lies and since our rings are constantly lighting up when they talk we just don’t listen to them anymore…and as for voting for lady word salad who mumbles like the the Peanut character……nope!
Gabrielle, so accurate! I haven’t seen a more spot on post in some time! Kudos…..and thanks for stating the truth so beautifully. Thank God enough of our fellow Americans realized this in time for Election Day
Went to an appointment today with someone is a Dem, and was very soft with her. Asked if she was OK, and she said basically the same thing. America is not ready for a black woman. I told her I would gladly vote for a Margaret Thatcher, Indira Ghandi or Golda Meir. At which point she changed the conversation and said she didn’t want to talk about. it. There are black Republican women who I would vote for. This is just the same stupid stuff the left talks about because their candidates have no substance, and are just tools of the machine.
So in the end their strategy has backfired on them. First in installing Old Joe through Jim Clyburn, and then putting him with a dumb VP. They tripped on each other and opened the door for the country to get so fed up that Trump was re-elected. Not to mention Trump is an intelligent experience businessman and politician and basically solid human being. James Clyburn has a lot to answer for.
Based on her qualifications and past demonstrated performance…or lack thereof, if she were a white male, would you vote for her? They would instantly refuse to do so. Then you point out that the only reason to vote for her because of your racism and sexism…..and run for cover.
Thank you, Daniel! Forgive me if I gush, but …
Your tone here is worthy of Swift and Voltaire, your satiric purpose equally epochal.
And it hits its mark dead on center.
Thank you. If only there were a worthier target
Daniel I cannot think of a more worthy target. WE THE PEOPLE are the target of this piece, and we ARE worthy of it.
Funny thing here: I have watched and followed this Harris creature since she was at UC in college.. a little after I was. And this election was the first time I had ever heard of her being referred to as “black”. Yes I knew her parenage, East Indian and Jamaican parents, born here when her parents were on student visas, not even permanent residents let alone citizens. That SHOULD mean she cannot hold office as President, as she is NOT (just like the kinyun) a Natural Born Citizen.
There is good reason our Framers placed this requirement/restriction on the Presidency. It further amuses me that his issue of her status was not once brought up for examination. At least with he kinyun it came up but those at the helm at the time countered with a faked Hawaiian “birth certificate” that “showed” he was born in that state.. but never addressed his true status as having only one US Citizen parent at the time of his birth.
That’s a good point, I don’t remember her ever being called black during her career in California.
“ surely one day Americans will finally be ready for a completely inept president.”
You’ve had a few of those already.
Maybe now DEI will DIE.
Bullshit. I’m a day older than G-d. Barbara Jordan comes to mind first. How about a Condoleezza Rice, Jeane Kirkpatrick, Madeleine Albright, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and Kristi Noem? It’s not because Kamala is a “woman of color.” It’s because she’s a vaporous idiot, an empty-headed pawn, an apparatchik. America needs a Golda Meir or a Margaret Thatcher. Kamala’s “not ready for Prime Time!” Her political career is over. Auf Wiedersehen, baby!
If she were born in America, Winsome (love that name) Sears comes to mind. I’d vote for her in a heartbeat.
I wouldn’t vote for any of these women, save perhaps for Sanders. Don’t even get me started about Condoleeza Rice, a complete globalist mediocrity who does not believe in defending American interests.
Harris’ candidacy was due less to qualifications and more to the boxes she could check. She coud not defend any of her positions or talking points because they were not hers but the parties. When asked to clarify, all she could do is talk in circles. It was not about voting for a woman but about voting for a leader, and Kamala was just not one.
The arrogance of this left in all its glory. Incapable of looking at their own shit, it is an entire America that would be retrograde and incapable of seeing the magnificent progress that there would have been by voting for Kamala… They are in their sewers and they will never get out.
This left is stillborn, already in antiquity their ideas were completely stupid. It is a zombie that persists in failure and violence, and there will always be enough imbeciles to support what will totally enslave them while despoiling them.
When we start talking about race, that is, the color of one’s skin, and larger issue around race, we realize the significance of race, what it means to be of a certain race and the implications of having a race and being in a race. Race to the finish line! HAHAHAHAHAHA!
Race is significant. And it’s a lot more complex than “skin color.”
The ‘swastika palestine’ rioters helped Americans reaction backfiring.
Racism? It’s much simpler than that: They had a crappy candidate and ran a crappy campaign. As long as the Dems fail to analyze and understand their errors in the election, I don’t see how they can recover from their self-inflicted blunders. But I say, rock on Democrats. Keep making the same mistakes over and over again, and we’ll see how that works out for you in 2028.
The TV lights and checks they provide are too strong a lure for those that were cast out in HS. They do not understand that repeating the same things continually causes the audience to tune out and move elsewhere. Having to face their real worth to the society again which is little or nothing is frightening. Ah well they can become lawyers or journalists.
When can we stop talking about skin color? Or sex.
I am Viking White.
GOOD ideas, Beliefs, Policies. Ideas.
Colin Powell. I did not entirely agree with his politics; but he would be a better choice than Kammy or Joe..
Condoleezza Rice. She is a “Yes.”
I know successful women who voted for HRC and Kammy bc it is time for a woman president.
Because race and sex DO matter. And frankly, you couldn’t bribe me a cool million to vote for a shallow globalist social climber like Condoleeza Rice, a GOP affirmative action hire if ever there was one. And no, I will not vote for a woman simply because she is a woman. I see no female on either side of the spectrum worth voting for. My preferred move would be to exhume the body of either Cleopatra or Catherine the Great, bring them back to life, retroactively make them a U.S. citizen, and let either one become president. Those were two women who understood the nature of political power.
THE TAMPON THAT SAVED AMERICA!
How did she pick such a freaking weirdo? Him always coming out of the gates like Richard Simmons, sealed it many. His exaggerations, outright lies, and ties to one of the worst Communist Countries in the world, added to her demise.
She was Dumber in Dumb and Dumber and then she became Dumb, and she had to pick someone dumber than Dumb to be the Dumber…. Mission Accomplished.
Why not Josh Shapiro? Was it because he is a Jew and Jews were a hot potato?
THE ACCUMULATION EFFECT:
*Votes from many categories were being chipped away from her.
*The Uncommitted!
*Her support (LOL) for Israel.
*The Black Supremacists, with Obama their leader, demanding they vote for a Black, turning MLK’s Dream into his worst NIGHTMARE, turned off many Black voters.
*Her Psychotic Laugh and Smile (turn your back, she shows her FANGED TEETH!)
*Her word salads.
*Her lack of visibility and even hiding so as not to “fuck it up” as many have said.
*Her Communist family ties and even some of her Marxist phrases.
*The Border Czar.
*ETC…. (running out of numbers.)
ADD ALL THOSE UP, A VOTE AGAINST HER HERE, ANOTHER THERE, THE ACCUMULATION EFFECT!
TRUMP’S:
*The Cost of Everything!
*The Enemy Within!
*Marxists!
*Hillary and Pelosi!
*The Border!
*The Border!
*THE BORDER!
And Lastly… THE BORDER!
NOW, LET’S FOCUS ON ALL THOSE WHO SAID THEY WERE LEAVING THE USA IF HE WON! GOFUNDME PAGE TO HELP WITH EXPENSES! I’D SAY $$$ FOR INNER TUBES SO THEY CAN BE THE FIRST TO FLOAT TO CUBA… NO ELECTION HASSLES THERE! VIVA CHE! VIVA FIDEL! VIVA OBAMA!
Great comment Steve Chavez, I love it!
She didn’t like Shapiro because she wanted the Palestine/Hamas vote.
The reversed morality addressed by Jesus in His teaching about ‘blasphemy against the Holy Spirit’ and St. Paul’s description of the ‘reprobate mind’ are at the foundation of this failure to communicate.
It’s not just ‘you say tomato and I say tomaato’, it is a kind of self inflicted, amoral insanity.
“Kamala Harris didn’t lose, America did. As a nation, we collectively failed her,” John Pavlovitz, a liberal Christian blogger, damned.”
Oh Golly Gee Wiz, I thought Judeo-Christianity was RATIONAL. The foundation of Western civilization.
The foundation of freedom, liberty, individualism, and capitalism.
Like HELL it is.
Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are the foundation of modern totalitarianism, theocracy, and dictatorship.
And in Front Page news today: blog troller cant let go of their bug-in-the-rear obsession with organized religion. Tired rhetoric we’ve heard before, too many times.
More rational than the totalitarian cult of Objectivism. Must really suck when you realize all of your hate and bitterness aren’t garnering any followers.
But I guess you haven’t realized that yet.
Still waiting for America’s first competent and America-loving black male president, as well as for the country’s first competent and America-loving female president, but 100% certain neither of these will or can come from the Democrat Party.
Thomas Sowell would be an amazing President. I will never forget his rants against “his people” (blacks) for throwing their votes at Obma no once, but TWICE, the second time after seeing what the guy is made of. Sowell unloaded big time on the blatant racism in their vote for him (Obama) BECAUSE he has black skin.
You nailed it. There is no reason why conservatives should out-Left the Left. It’s a fool’s errand. Let the Left play the anti-white, anti-male game. We’ve got better things to do.
Thomas Sowell was born in 1930. He’s 94. Get real.
He’s 94. It’s not going to happen.
Keep in mind folks: The time is NOW to kick our enemies when they’re down!
Show no mercy. Kick away!. Stomp! Punish! Then Gloat!
To paraphrase Patton: We are not in this war to be destroyed for what we believe in, we are in this war to destroy the enemy for what they believe in.
It’s time for We The People to renew all boycotts, humiliate every liberal we encounter, and kick them to the curb, like the trash they are.
Our government must do their job: Fire every corrupt bastard on day one.
And they’ve got their own thugs for that kind of thing. War is not politics. It is the result of the breakdown of politics.
War is not so simply defined. Some wars ARE political. It’s disingenuous to think that we are not at war with the left. They’ve been at war with us for several generations. We have no choice.
We must ruin their businesses, humiliate them, fire them, deport them, end the fairy tale of the transgender movement, destroy the green new deal, destroy the teachers unions. The list goes on.
We can do all the above with firing a shot. The time is now.
It’s time for those who remain in denial to join the rest of us or get out of our way. We no longer have time or tolerance for the Romney faction of the republican party.
We The People are going to teach the left a lesson. The next four years are going to be the worst years in all their lives. They deserve it. We are going to make them so miserable that their only remaining choice is to leave my country, or have their faces symbolically rubbed in their own feces.
After Trump, Vance for eight years.
It’s a new dawn. The left asked for it; ‘hell is coming to breakfast. “
None of this will work. It’ll only bring us one big step closer to war. Or maybe war is what you want. Be careful what you wish for. The last one cost us 600,000-plus lives.
The Constitution lists only three qualifications for the Presidency. Gender is not one of them — the President must be at least 35 years of age, be a natural born citizen, and must have lived in the United States for at least 14 years.
My person list of qualifications is much more demanding.
1. Must not be a Democrat ( as Democrats are now)
2. Must not be a communist, socialist, marxist or anarchist. Kamala is at best a socialist.
3. Must not hate white people. Kamala hates white men.
4. Must not be a law breaker. Kamala broke laws at the south border.
5. Must be a law enforcer. Kamala is not that
And I wouldn’t mind a QUALIFIED female President.
Democrats hate America and Americans.. all they want is to steal the country from the people and call us names…they are proven evil…and must be removed until they repent.. which can’t happen because they shake their fingers at us and think we are garbage…they are SO VERY EVIL.
America failing Heels Up Commie Cackling Kamalala a witch whore of Babylon is like saying the Jews failed hitler and the nazzis and now the Hebrew people in Israel are failing myzzlym jihad!
These entities humanity failed have failed in the WILL of YHVH and in hell they wait for JUDGEMENT!
2 Chronicles 7:14, If MY people who are called by MY NAME shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek MY face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Has proven itself once again to be true and fact – when terror strikes it is because we get away from YHVH’S WILL and then these evil demonic possessed lozrfr-zatan worshippers come in every single time – Humans don’t learn from history until it’s too late or nearly too late then we scramble –
Discipline Begets Motivation – It is easier to stay in training and be disciplined to avoid these terrors and loss.
President Trump is a mentor to all and his discipline is his motivation and his victory against the forces of deep state owned media, treasonous elected politicians and their appointed heads of government organizations, up to CIA finding losers and stooges to be an expendable Manchurian Candidate – with their philosophy, throwing enough Manchurian Candates against a wall, hopefully one will stick – is not match to YHVH’S Anointed People and HIS Chosen people of which President Trump has proved to be one as the 8th day creation Hebrews in Israel!
The era we are in, these statements of fact will prove themselves out!
when does Michelle Obama open her mouth and not hurl racism and divisionism???
Bye bye, Barack
By Silvio Canto, Jr.
Maybe former President Obama got the message when he spoke to African Americans in Philadelphia. The thrill is gone. The racialist policies just don’t work anymore. People are tired of hearing sermons from former presidents with mansions and First Ladies who sent their kids to expensive private schools.
We saw on Election Day the end of Obama as a candidate. His “emerging majority” did not emerge, as David Weigel pointed out:
Republicans ended election night confident that they would win the presidency, flip the Senate, and perhaps narrowly hold the House of Representatives. In Mar-a-Lago, Donald Trump’s most famous supporters were talking about winning the popular vote, a mandate that MAGA couldn’t grab in two prior presidential campaigns.
“MSM Meltdown Compilation: Chris Hayes Calls on Deep State to Stop Trump”
“Maddow calls on military, media, and Americans to defy Trump administration”
After Trump cleans out the swamp in DC and throws the illegal invaders back over the fence, he needs to start arresting the enemy from within for sedition – America, President Trump and Trump’s family will not be safe otherwise.
We should remember that Kamala was a distant also-ran even in Democrat primaries, so I guess the Democrat Party is also full of racism and sexism. Come to think of it, it is! Just ask Clarence Thomas and Sarah Palin.
The Democrats are anti-racist. That is, anti-white. Anyone who thinks that the Democrats oppose black interests needs a lobotomy. As for Sarah Palin, people opposed her not because she’s a woman, but because she’s a moron.
Perfectly analyzed and stated!
I am so sad that we didn’t elect a supremely competent and aware woman for president. If only one had been running in this race and Donald Trump had not been running, history could have been made. I tried satire but I am terrible at it. Still waiting for a woman who will not get us into WWIII and knows how to save some of our money and spend the rest for the benefit of the hard working citizens of America. The legal ones. So it will probably be a Conservative woman.
I disagree with putting Margaret Thatcher on a pedestal. In summary, Thatcher was a demented ‘conservative, Harris is a demented radical; consequently, Thatcher let Irish prisoners die on hunger strike rather than permit casual clothing as befits political prisoners. With the Pope and Reagan she made up a powerful force against communism and the left generally so I am not downplaying her merit – I would have voted with her on other issues.
Her entitlement mentality is the DEI loser theology of deserving it all without earning anything.
It is now embedded in every American institution.
even at 94 thomas sowell would make a better president than lost his marbles joe and all of the political elites that infest DC . he is articulate , knows his facts and doesnt live on the plantation which i guess would automatically disqualify him . if all the blacks were to listen to him and armstrong williams all the race hustlers would be out of a job and obama would be relegated to the dust bin of inconsequential history . if america wants a woman of color then carol swain would get my vote . went to the school of hard knocks , got a decent education despite major youthful setbacks and again articulate and sharp with street cred . but she wouldnt be in the running as she is a conservative and also not a plantation resident . williams appeared on dr. phil and in 10 mins shut everybody up who was whining about white privilege , slavery and reparations . a moment of GOLD on a talk show . whoopi wouldnt be whoopi for long with armstrong as she would receive and education she obviously doesnt have .
No I didn’t fail Kamala. Just as I didn’t vote for Obama or any of the socialist/communist candidates we have enjoyed since. Like may WHITE Americans, I don’t judge on skin color, I actually listen to their platform/plan. When they violate the US Constitution and the Declaration of Independence I reject them because of their politics!!! As mentioned above I would have voted for Jeane Kirkpatrick in a flash! She always seemed to love this land as does Trump. Born in 1950 I can still remember when America was strong and reasonable righteous. Both of our political parties have lead this country down ward in a spiral for the last 70+ years. Trump has been saved for this time and given the resources to start elevating this country again..
