Obama broke his "silence" on the Anti-President Elect riots. He praised them and said "don't be silent." His advice to President Trump - "Get used to it."
Obama and the Leftists almost pulled off the distruction of our Democratic Rebublic, and they are not done yet .... But they will fail.
NOT classy, Obama. That's going low. QUITE low, to encourage people to protest. Obama is such a disappointment after 8 years in office. He has only succeeded in ushering in more division. It truly seems like Obama and Clinton don't value the United States and they don't like the American people.
LOL at this thread. You all do realize that there were many on the right who held protests as well after Obama was elected right??
Also after Bush was elected both times there were protests too!
Methinks you all are the whiners and criers in this whole mix. American people have a right to protest. All presidents have to deal with protests, which is what Obama said. President Trump actually will have to get used to it. That is a part of politics in America.
The violence and threats continue. Now the electors are getting death threats. Trump has also received many - as I am sure have many of his most ardent supporters. But, that is all ok - more than ok - with Obama! He has said he doesn't want it to stop.
And not only that but there are outrageous things that are going on to try to sabotage Trump's administration once he is inaugurated - the orders for the border control people to stand down and allow thousands a day to flood through the southern border, the reams of new regulations approved daily, and I am sure there are other things we just haven't heard about yet. These things hurt EVERYONE - not just the Americans who didn't vote for Hillary.
How the heck can any decent human being condone any of the above? Peaceful protests are one thing .. but that is not the half of what is going on right now.
I am still constantly amazed by the fact that our schools seem to be producing people with such a narrow view of the world (in spite of that 'globalism' they profess to teach and endorse so fervently) that they cannot even come up with a cogent argument to support their own logic but just keep sticking to the liberal talking points of the day. The only seem capable of throwing out snarky 2 liners which have no basis in fact and cannot be truly supported - even if they tried (but they don't!)
Do you have any idea on what basis that stock market you tout is supported (or not)? Do you have a clue whether that can continue ad infinitum under any government? Do you really have any understanding of economics at all? Do you know who truly controls it and why they do what they do? Do you know its history/its origins/its original and current intents? Do you have major investments in that stock market yourself? Can you afford to be dangled on the string of those far more powerful than you can ever hope to be? Do you have a clue what any of that means for you and your future one way or the other?
Do you understand what the unemployment figures (a single figure that does not actually tell one much about anything except the politics of the current government by the way) really mean? Do you ever hear anything about how many cannot get jobs in this country? Why do you think that is? Do you truly believe that almost everyone who wants to and can work is fully employed (not part time) at the salary and level of their competency and interests? If so, do you realize you are living in some kind of bubble? If not, what might be the cause for that phenomena and 'who is to blame'?
How have the inner city areas seen great improvement over the past 8 years? Does the fact that (if you even will acknowledge this) murder rates in many poorer areas in places like Chicago have skyrocketed but everyone has an Obamaphone mean, by your standards, that there has been a major improvement in standards of living somehow, upward mobility, better schools and jobs for all not to mention that race relations have improved by leaps and bounds under the first partially black president?
And, what the heck are they teaching you about what a country is, what a border is for and how/why it should or should not be 'enforced' for the good of all inside, what a republic is or what is 'globalism' anyway? What does globalism in particular mean to you, for you, for any of us, now and in the future? Do you recognize and understand the difference/disparity between the words and the actions of your current president and the aims of the globalists around the world at all? If so, how does that sit with you? How do you think you will benefit when there are no borders, when those who rule do so at even more of an arm's length than today, when they impose things you may not like at all down the line, when they choose who they want to cater to despite having told everyone they are all equal and leading everyone in a song of kumbaya? How will you and others who claim that diversity is the best thing possible (when based on one's skin colour or gender identification or things along that line - the externals for the most part) like it when you have been reduced to homogeneity (so you can be more easily controlled)?
People with your views seem to tout that they have more 'compassion' for others than the rest of us possibly ever could. And yet, you seem to discount everyone but yourselves when you whip out these quick stabs at the rest of us. Do you even have a clue what the word 'compassion' means? That is just one of the myriad of words that seems to have been morphed to keep people like you under 'control' - the antithesis of what you say you (and none of us) want.
Come back here please and support what you just said. Answer my questions (which should be yours too) and give us good reasons why you say what you say and we can then have a real and useful discussion perhaps. Till you sincerely can engage in that discussion, I will have no alternative but to think you are a pawn, an 'uneducated' one, a miserable and vindictive and cowardly one. I hope you will not continue to leave me with that impression!
Kudos, Aery. This has to be the best post I have seen since Election Day. I notice no response to it either.
I hope your last post does not come to fruition. That is scarey stuff. May God help us all.
