Fortifying democracy. Or something.
This is Donald J. Trump State Park. It’s in Westchester, New York. It’s got grass, trees and the name of the man whom the one-party state government hates more than tax cuts and locking up criminals.
And so they keep trying to change the name.
Why is it named after Trump who wasn’t an elected official back then? He provided the land.
In 2019, State Senator Brad Hoylman-Sigal, Democrat of Manhattan, proposed removing Mr. Trump’s name from the park, arguing that keeping the then-president’s name was contrary to the state parks’ mission of uplifting and unifying New Yorkers. The measure passed the Senate in 2021, but has yet to come to the floor of the Assembly.
A current version of the bill has been filed, but has yet to make it out of committee. And with just four legislative days left in the session before it is scheduled to end on June 6, any bill would seem to face an uphill climb.
And there are so many priorities for New York State’s Democrat assembly like
1. Freeing more criminals
2. Raising taxes
3. Welcoming in more illegal aliens
And if they change the name of Donald J. Trump State Park, what will they change it to? Osama M Bin Laden Park (you can guess what the M stands for, Mohammed) or Joseph J.J. Stalin Park or Barack M. Obama Park.
Locals around there tend to be Republicans. But who cares what they think anyway?
It also seems likely that a fair number of visitors to the park voted for Mr. Trump: In voting districts to the north and east of the park in Yorktown and Yorktown Heights, Mr. Trump drew more votes than President Biden in 2020.
Even so, Senator Hoylman-Sigal said that recent events had contributed to a flurry of interest in both houses that he believed could reinvigorate the measure to change the park’s name.
“We hope the verdict primes the pump,” he said.
Having solved all the little problems, it’s time to tackle the big ones. Like the name of a political opponent being on a park.
Anyway they can rename it Marcus Garvey Park. Just like the one in Harlem. Garvey was a great unifying figure.
Garvey, an early black nationalist, had met with KKK leaders to undermine the NAACP. “Between the Klu Klux Klan and the NAACP group, give me the Klan,” he had said. “You may call me a Klansman if you will,” he had added.
There are schools in America named after a racist who admired Hitler and Mussolini, and claimed to have been the first fascist.
“We were the first Fascists,” Garvey boasted. He also contended that, “Mussolini and Hitler copied the programme of the UNIA.”
Marcus Garvey urged his followers to read Mein Kampf. “What the Negro needs is a Hitler,” he declared.
“Hats off to Hitler the German Nazi,” cheered the national hero of Jamaica.
New York is full of schools and parks named after Marcus Garvey. And none of them will be renamed.

The Democrats have morphed into true totalitian fascist state out to impose their intolerant ideology onto all tax payers.
Further proof that the sham trail agTrump was purely political persecution lawfare for election interference.
SPURWING PLOVER says
We are seeing the Democrats for the persons they really are intolerant towards anybody who opposes their Globalists plans their bit like The Golden Man from a episode of Lost in Space they appear to be Handsome and Polite but in reality their totally Hideous Monster

“. . .arguing that keeping the then-president’s name was contrary to the state parks’ mission of uplifting and unifying New Yorkers.”
I ran this through my George Orwell Newspeak Translat-O-tron:
“Keeping the then-president’s name was contrary to our mission to unify New Yorkers against Trump, his supporters, and anyone else who opposes us.”

A pro-baseball story I heard on the radio involved a hitter against whom pitchers would sometimes pull the common tactic of aiming for his head. Most hitters usually duck in time to avoid the ball, but the close call often rattles them enough they then hit badly or not at all.. But this one hitter, rather than get rattled after almost getting beaned, would instead hit angry home runs.
An opposing team’s manager was heard telling his pitchers, “No trying to bean this guy! It only spurs him to hit home runs!”
DC says
The president of El Salvador has offered the Trump family safe haven in El Salvador when the DEM/Communist revolution comes to kill or incarcerate them.
And Bukele knows about thugs………….he destroyed MS-13 in El Salvador using all the necessary means.
He is a hero to the El Salvadoran people.
I would trust Nayib Bukele way before I trusted the SCOTUS or the Deep State RINOS.
Trump should keep one of his planes on standby as the family “bug-out” plane.
It’s a pretty short hop over to El Salvador for Melania and the kids and grandkids.
And if Donald wants to stick around while the rest of us have our reckoning with the DEM/Communists……..I say……GOD BLESS DJT!
jwebb says
I cannot imagine Trump ‘running’ under any circumstances.
He’s had plenty of opportunities to step away from the DEM onslaught.
DC says
The DEMS will kill or incarcerate Trump………….period.
And in other Communist revolutions, the radicals usually kill the family of the opposition leader as well.
That’s why Bukele made his offer to the Trump family.
Don Jr. attended Bukele’s inauguration.
Jeff Bargholz says
Bukele is cool. I saw video of those prisons he threw the MS-13 scum in. it was funny as fuck. All those neck tattooed scumbags forced into regimentation.
