It’s refreshing to finally learn that Americans have
elected a president who will not hold his tongue, nor his tweet, when attacked
by a minority politician. Keeping in mind the absolute truth that to attack someone
based on race, or to not attack or respond to someone based on race, are both
racist acts, which has been the policy of establishment Republican politicians
for years: let a black politician like Barack Obama propose and do the most outrageous
things, and disobey the constitution, but don’t criticize him for these
malicious actions out of fear of being called racists. But Donald Trump is a
true non-racist person, and he responds to political criticism honestly whenever,
and from whomever, it comes.
So recently John Lewis, a black, liberal Democrat
member of the House of Representatives from Georgia’s fifth district for 29 years,
made a statement on NBC in which he called Trump an illegitimate president
because he believes that “hacking by Russians had helped Trump…get elected in
November”. Someone had better advise Mr. Lewis that Hillary won the popular
vote, so it appears that the actual outcome of any alleged hacking by Russia favored
Hillary Clinton and not Donald Trump, who won only the more important electoral
vote.
John Lewis, and most liberal Democrats, whether black
or white, have for years, with justification, complained about the plight of
black Americans who suffer a life of higher unemployment rates, higher than
average murder rates, lower earned income rates, live in more dangerous
neighborhoods and other conditions that the average American does not have to
endure, but these liberal politicians have no explanation as to how this
disparity exists after they have spent decades in Congress approving more
welfare money each year, supporting the horrible American education system and
it’s leftist, politically correct curriculum, supporting public schools and
denying vouchers for minority students to attend the much better private
schools, and doing nothing to prevent the high murder rates of black-on-black
crimes.
Then along comes a non-politician who has promised to
improve the conditions of our poorest citizens along with the conditions of our
poorest and most dangerous cities, and all the likes of Mr. Lewis can do is
bring up the untrue, but much repeated, Russian hacking issue and call Donald
Trump an “illegitimate” president.
After years of effort and the expenditure of trillions
of dollars, liberal Democrat politicians should be taking credit for completely
eliminating poverty and homelessness in America. But what has actually been
accomplished by the expenditure of trillions of dollars spent on this effort?
Nothing! Because Democrats need the constant underclass to vote for them, and to
whom politicians can dole out more cash and free cellphones and pretend to be
helping, when the welfare state just feeds on itself and creates more and more
poor people.
I firmly believe that Donald Trump and his insistence on
fighting crime, providing more jobs and improving the living conditions in poor
communities, rather than handing out more money in those communities, which
only further traps poor people to a life of welfare instead of working for a
living, will improve the lives of all Americans, especially the poorest among
us. And that’s what frightens the professional class of politicians, like Mr. Lewis.
They fear Trump’s success and the weening of the poverty class off of handouts
and onto the roles of working Americans who no longer need the goodies that are
used by liberal politicians to tempt them into voting for Democrats election
after election, as they get poorer and poorer.
But to return to the intended subject of this piece as
written in the title, after Mr. Lewis made the statement about Trump being “illegitimate”,
Trump fired back with “All talk, talk, talk-no action or results. Sad!” And it is sad that all of this nation’s
efforts so far have neither eliminated nor even reduced the poverty level in
the wealthiest nation in the world.
It’s so frustrating to know that the solution to
poverty and high crime rates is known and has been proposed by Donald Trump,
and still the liberal Democrats try to frighten their poorest and most dependent
constituents into protesting the very programs that could set them free of
dependence on government handouts and make them proudly financially independent
of government, and in many cases, they could retire from a lifetime job as
wealthy people. But this will never happen if poor people continue to listen to
Democrats and reject reformists like Donald Trump.
