“That’s who, that’s the, a lot of his base and that’s who he speaks to so the divisiveness continues,” she stammered. “So, we should be focusing on things that we need to focus on.”

The MSNBC host, Chris Jansing, as you would expect, offered no pushback on the outlandish claim.


Hirono (D-HI) began the segment by claiming the President has been a failure in three aspects:

The pandemic – Caused by China with a response slowed down by the impeachment charade.

The economy – Caused by the pandemic which had previously been roaring along at historic rates.

Systemic racism – Something that only exists in bad individuals and is by no means systemic.

What a hateful witch she is...

There are more racists than not in every group.

But let's get real.

In the Art of War, Machiavelli explains that a Captain should endeavor in dividing the forces of the enemies. He says that he would either make the leader of the enemies be suspicious of the men in his own army or enticing him to have reasons to believe that the army would perform well when divided. This would weaken the army of the enemy thus making it easier to conquer.

According to Philip II of Macedon, Caesar (the leader of the Roman Empire) and Napoleon Bonaparte practiced this tactic.

In the current world, this tactic is practiced by the major economic powers in an attempt to get business deals from the developing and underdeveloped countries.

Its divide large group into smaller ones and make them turn on each other than you. And then dealing with each group at the time is much easier than to deal with them all together.

Look, Divide and conquer is the oldest trick in the book. If the politicians don't know how to use this strategy, he/she is not a politician.

It is just so sad that some folks don't recognize it. lol

Again, I hope you get what you want in the end, but be prepared for what you have wished for.
What I wish? Restoration of democracy in America. Why are you against that, exactly?

Leftys and statistics -- like oil and water.

As far as moving on from outdated ideals and morals, it that what you call it as BLM promotes anti-white racism across the country, destroying businesses, burning down property, looting stores, and threatening that whites submit to blacks demands or they will burn the whole thing down? Wonderful ideals and morals you admire there.
Rachel,

You’re actually in the minority and it terrifies you.

If you took fear and rage away from Donald Trump he wouldn’t have anything else to work with.
