The Anti-Trump Left Pulls Out All The Stops With Their Lies About The President's Mt. Rushmore Speech: "Divisive," Racial Division," "Flouts Virus Rules," "Ominous"
Apparently They Didn't Read It!

"Große Lüge," a big lie. Sound familiar? Hitler and Goebbels understood it and used it, and the American media, whoring for the Democrat party is an enthusiastic user of this anti-freedom technique to manipulate public opinion.

Or maybe they just didn't read it and used the talking points that the DNC sent them. Because they are catastrophically wrong about its tone and intent. Just read it for yourself!

A Magnificent Speech

The president’s speech was a passionate celebration of American freedom and American greatness—a greatness, he noted, that was embodied by the sublime majesty of the heads of Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, and Teddy Roosevelt sculpted into the granite pinnacle of Mt. Rushmore.


Our nation is witnessing a merciless campaign to wipe out our history, defame our heroes, erase our values, and indoctrinate our children. Angry mobs are trying to tear down statues of our founders, deface our most sacred memorials, and unleash a wave of violent crime in our cities. Many of these people have no idea why they are doing this, but some know exactly what they are doing. They think the American people are weak and soft and submissive. But no, the American people are strong and proud, and they will not allow our country, and all of its values, history, and culture, to be taken from them.
The Left's mouthpiece on 43rd street (The Whore Of 43rd?) is particularly vile...
His ominous remarks were a reflection of his political standing: trailing in the polls, lacking a booming economy or a positive message to campaign on, and leaning on culture wars to buoy his loyalists.
They embrace the polls, in spite of their rather poor record from 2016, they ignore the most current employment report that suggests a rapid return to economic health, and they can't stomach the idea that Americans like to be reminded that we have a great nation. As for culture wars? Defending Western culture and American Exceptionalism is anathema to the elites of the Upper West Side, if they even understand it.

I see the same old and tired techniques that are falling on increasingly deaf ears. Even Alinsky said that "A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag." The NYT and its ilk in the big blue cities need to move on to something a little more interesting, or they risk an America that tunes them out and tunes in to a president whose love for America and Americans is obvious.

23 In betting markets the spread between Biden and Trump narrowed by about 4% since the Thursday jobs number and Friday speech. Biden still up big but not as big.

And in AZ and WI a couple of good polls for OrangeManBad.

With polls I see it as accurate for Biden but at least 4 or 5 lower than real for Trump. So a 47-43 Biden lead is really a 48-47 Trump lead, that kind of thing.

46 Trump's speech as not just outstanding but it clearly laid down the lines of the election. It's not about something as temporary as the virus although the left would love to run on that. It's not even about something as big as the economy.

This election will be a fight for the soul of the country. You either believe in the foundational principles of this country and our way of life or you don't. It's that stark and it wasn't Trump's choice it was the lefts.

I can't imagine a more favorable platform for Trump to run on than America, warts and all, versus anarchy and oppression.

I mentioned this yesterday. In Dana Point, CA yesterday numerous boats, dinghies and pickup trucks were flying TRUMP 2020 flags alongside their American flags. Saw several people in MAGA hats too. Orange County is usually a mix of Left and right so people tend to be discreet about political leanings. I've never seen such in-your face support for Trump.

Overheard conversations were very pissed off about masks, closed beaches, BLM protests and the defacing of our history.

The elites are so far removed from the lives of everyday Americans that they can't see the Forrest for the trees. I don't need poll numbers to ascertain the mood of the country.

91 My understanding from our neighbors in our new neighborhood is that last night's fireworks by other residents was the largest and longest in neighborhood memory.

Started about 2050, and went uninterrupted till well after 2230.

I have literally been to township/county displays that have been shorter and smaller.

And Pickup trucks and cars with American flags driving around all day yesterday.

There are various names being used for it, but there's this concept out there that corporate media, in conjunction with Big Education (and the wealthy controllers of both) have had a rather tight lid on what does and what does not get out, in terms of information.

They're losing control of it, and are lashing out, but still, they think if they don't acknowledge it, they don't endorse it, they don't fund it, it doesn't exist.

120 These "reporters" won't release the word version of their original report-- so that we can't see they were all written before the speech.

Notice, they all described the speech but none of them quoted it?

What's interesting, is no one who could be persuaded by their rants will read their rants-- they've not just exiled conservatives from social media, the moderates are gone too.

Their control of the media is as strong or stronger than when they were calling Reagan a senile old fool, enthralled by his horoscope obsessed wife who was going to bumble into a nuclear war we would lose to Russia.

They don't know what they don't know because they don't want to know.

They just need to know a new speech exists. They wing it from that point. Biden slipped up a few weeks back when he said truth over facts.

Their 'truth' has nothing to do with facts. If what they say is Truth, then whatever Trump says to contradict them is automatically Lies. That's why they claim he has told 10,000 Lies so far. Even when his Lies are backed up by facts.

166 ''The brilliance of that Mt Rushmore speech, in my opinion, was that there wasn't one word about Trump in it. It was all about America.''

After Obama it took a while to get used to the idea that we once again had a president that cared more for our country than himself.

Also, last night's speech was bad ass. He went after the fake news and spanked them hard.

167 Protesters in Baltimore pulled down a Christopher Columbus statue and threw it into the city's Inner Harbor on Independence Day. Demonstrators used ropes to yank down the Columbus statue that is located near the city's Little Italy neighborhood as fireworks went off across the city on the Fourth of July.

Well, I know who saved me, and I am also familiar with the verse from Esther that says, "Who knows if you were put in this position for such a time as this?" POTUS's election was a miracle. Trump always seems to defer to the Almighty in his speeches. I like to think that it has not gone unnoticed.

177 One thing I do worry about - older Republican voting Karens who are more scared of the wuhan flu than they are scared by the riots. I know a few of them, in rural and suburban areas. the riots seem distant to them, although they are disturbed by them, but they're only getting even more paranoid about Kung flu and angry at people not wearing masks, etc. they will not listen to reason and they are upset with the trump rallies.
Posted by: Donna&&&&&&V at July 05, 2020 12:25 PM



It's a possibility. I do wonder if there's a portion of older, vulnerable Trump supporters who could be intimidated from going to the polls in November because they're afraid of catching the WuFlu. Like those who avoided the Tulsa rally? Doesn't have to be a big percentage to have an impact.

189 The media and Hollywood and all democrats are intentionally aggravating, and antagonizing people hoping for a violent response. They do it from behind armed security with the plan that the violence will fall on someone else.
They are setting up the children for violent acts, planning and hoping for a school shooting. The Antifa is their military arm used to burn riot and de-fund the police. Local school boards and the union teachers are now playing their part by forcing the withdrawal of police protection from schools where their calming influence is needed.
The democrats own the teachers union and any teacher who objects to being made the front line target will be doxed and hounded out of their job. Watch for this.

CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC and even Fox already has selected their ready teams for immediate response. Its about gun control and blaming Trump before the election. If they don't have an event by mid-October, they will be getting desperate.

It's not even worthwhile to get tested for the antibodies, to know whether or not you've had it; the test is fairly expensive ($129) and has a 50% accuracy rate. Might as well just flip a coin; it's just as accurate, and much cheaper.

It'is a cult. There will be no reasoning or convincing. Their argument was "shut up," but increasingly it's "die." Each successive electoral loss makes them more rabid and foamy. I want Republican sweep in November so bad. I want to see them tear themselves in two like Rumplestiltskin.

As a simple way to illustrate this point out to her Trump had the option, with the media pushing him, to go to war with Russia, China, North Korea and Iran and in each case HE has de-escalated without backing down.

I talked with someone while walking my dog who knew someone in NYC who died of it. The woman I was talking with had to shutter her small business because of DeWine's draconian measures but still thinks he's handled it well but agreed with me that everything is guesswork on how effective social distancing and masks are.

A security screener in my building passed away 2 months ago, and the story was because of Wu flu. She was 68. 90% of deaths in WA State are in the 65+ age category.

Which really makes me question how COVID is actually spread. I am no doctor, but it seems that clusters like this is consistent with ecoli, or cryptosporidium or norovirus which get spread via fecal-oral route.

If Fauci the Fuckstick is not even willing to tell the homos to stop reaming each other to prevent AIDS, do you think he would be honest about COVID being primarily transmissible via something other than airborne droplets?

Live COVID has been found in stool samples, yet the CDC DOESNT EVEN MENTION fecal-oral transmission as a POSSIBILITY on it's website.

That's how invested they are into this mask and airborne bullshit.

He feels Trump is one of, if not, the best communicators extant. He also feels that Trump has a vast number of life skills (i.e. Talent Stack) that makes him a formidable person in the political arena.

Thus, if this bears out, we are much closer to herd immunity than we think, at least in the areas hardest hit so far.

No mention of the fact that you rebreathe CO2 and O2 levels drop. No mention of claustrophobics, COPD patients or mentally ill who could potentially be driven to a panic attack, rendered unconscious or dead by mask-wearing.

Some moron (blaster maybe?) posted a link to a statistician who is crunching a bunch of numbers on the whole thing. The one I found fascinating is that for every two COVID deaths there is one "other" death from people being terrified to go to the hospital. Folks having heart attacks, strokes, etc. and they won't go because they literally might catch a cold.

IIRC the numbers for emergency room visits have dropped more than 50% over the last couple of months.

352 Nobel laureate biologist Levitt believes herd immunity threshold (HIT) may be quite low (20-30%), based on Swedish and other data. He is not alone, and HIT varies radically between infectious pathogens, so it's quite plausible.

It's easy to spend every waking hour exploring new studies and observations on C19. Even ignoring the fact that almost all of them point towards a far less damaging bug than feared, in a way it's misdirected effort.

Far more important is that basic, unquestioned epidemiological observations/doctrine are being completely ignored, and that the public health measures being taken are simply irrelevant to the situation.

The vulnerable should shelter or be protected. Everyone else should go about their life exactly as before. Because nothing being done makes any difference in the final score, which is all that matters.

I've been throwing him in the bath as soon as he gets home each day, and of course we wash hands all around. My coworker was telling us about her niece's family - eight people at dinner together, one showed symptoms the next day, five more (including a baby) are down with it within a few days. That does NOT make sense for a respiratory illness - but it makes perfect sense if patient zero had already had some diarrhea (do people even know this stuff starts with diarrhea?), hadn't washed his hands very well, and handled the serving utensils which were then handled by everyone else right before they ate. As for the baby, if Mom handed her a pacifier, there you go.

No one should look to him as a prophet, and his 'super persuader' and 'talent stack' theories have flaws, but he's certainly a free thinker, a successful person, and somebody worth listening to. He's a big fan of weed and mushrooms, but also thinks we should be in a hot war with China due to fentanyl. I don't entirely disagree - but his perspective is partially due to tragedy, since his young son (early 20s IIRC) died last year from a Fentanyl OD.

There is an interesting debate as to whether the Byzantines got iconoclasm from the Muslims, vice versa, or whether it kind of cropped up on both at the same time.


Eventually the Byzantines clamped down on iconoclasm - looking at modern orthodox Christianity shows it is very iconodule - but for a time the Emperor was as strict on destroying religious imagery as the Caliph was....

They are doing that because they want people to believe everyone is in danger of dying and there is nothing you can do about it short of not breathing.

If they were willing to admit the oral/fecal transmission that is very clearly going on, the would put out a statement to the effect of "you nasty mother fuckers need to wash your damn hands after you shit... you are spreading the plague when you don't"

Pressed on whether statues of George Washington should come down, potential Vp pick Tammy Duckworth says she's open to it.

I read she wouldn't commit to saying that Gropin' Joe should pick a black woman as his running mate. So Duckwaddle wants it. She's an idiot of the first water and would be a great pick for Biden

If you don't want a " left-wing cultural revolution,; " or want to minimize the illiberal and deleterious aspects of such a revolution, I think it's pretty clear you should want Biden as president for the next four years, not a re-elected Trump.

472 Quelle (pronounced kvelleh) means source or spring in German.

There is a hypothesized Q Gospel which could be the source of Matthew, Mark, and John, because one original source could relate all of them. (Synoptic gospels?)

I don't know what fucking Q everyone is talking about here, though. Maybe the quartermaster from the Bond movies.

Ahh, you are correct. The Deutsch Quelle, not the Francois Quelle.

I'd like to believe this. But I don't. I remember thinking leftist assbaggery was borne out of fear of Mitch Rombley and Eddie Munster.

This is just who they are and what they do.

Your wife may consider PDT crazy, but how did she view the economy prior to March? Crazy or not, his economic team and America First agenda has been brilliant. Wilbur Ross, Steve Mnuchin, with the help of Lighthizer and Navarro have created miracles. For all the unemployed, this country desperately needs those miracle workers back another four years.

481 Judaism has been, from the start, an extremely and literally iconoclastic faith. You can take that as an order from G-d, or as a reaction to the Egyptian and later, Greek cultures that they were in constant competition with, or a combination of both.

484 For all of those lefty clowns in the media who unloaded their wheelbarrow of dark, divisive, sewage sludge from the municipal waste treatment plant yeaterday, I have three words "Sod Off Swampy!"

They have been doing their dangest for three and a half years now to reverse the results of the 2016 presidential election. They haven't knocked Trump off yet.

I don't know how the voters will go this November--but if Trump winds there are going to be a lot cerebral aneurysms on the editorial staffs of NYT, WaPoo, and the LA Times. One lives in hope.

488 "dark and divisive"= true and effective.

I'll tell you what is dark and divisive, New York Times. When you pimp out reporter Ali Watkins to fuck Senate Security Chief James Wolfe for Sen. Warner's copy of the Page FISA warrant. Then pretending the Russia Hoax is real despite having the evidence that proves it to be a cheap coup by scumbags and criminals.

Sccott Adams is Like Glenn Greenwald MIke Thernobitch, Demontards

who accidentally stagger drunk off their ass into the truth

***

I think Adams actually is some kind of conservative.


Greenwald is one of the few liberals who actually believed what they
say they do. I mean if you told people in the 90s that the left would be
Russia-bating politicians and using the CIA/FBI against you they
wouldn't believe it. Hell the left used to make movies about how
terrible such a thing would be.

No idea who the last guy is.

*****************************I actually respect Greenwald (and Michael Tracey and Matt Taibbi), because they are part of the dying breed of journalists who actually aren't afraid to call BS on the mainstream press. Even though they all hate Trump, at least they all said Russia was BS, and laid out why. They all said the Ukraine scam against Trump was BS. They all think Bolton is full of **$* and not worth listening to. They've been yelling about the hypocrisy of the media slobbering over the protests, but threatening you and me if we meet our family for an backyard barbecue. And Tracey, in particular, has been very powerful this past week in rattling the cages about the 'peaceful protestors' burning down Minneapolis, and the mainstream press completely ignoring how these weasels have hurt our inner cities they proclaim to care so much about. In other words, they at least seem honest about calling things as they see them, which makes them rare in today's world of completely corrupt journalists.
