The Dems vs. The Cans………2020, and why Donald Trump will lose this election.
Donald Trump will lose this election because of this pledge we all have recited our entire lives. Because we love our America, and because we will not allow the love of gratuitous and self serving hatred he preaches to define our President in the USA.
The Pledge of Allegiance :
“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.” Say it, mean it, and live it because you love this country. Especially the indivisible part is most important at this time!! We The People will not ‘pledge allegiance’ to Donald Trump. We do not do that kind of thing here in the USA, do we? We do not ‘pledge allegiance’ to any person, for that is a slippery slope toward despotism my friends. We hold our leaders accountable by keeping an open mind and voting for Truth, Justice and the American Way, HUH?
This situation attempting to be created by Donald Trump is a much demonstrated throughout history and dangerous thing my friends. It is a trip down ‘DESPOTISM LANE’, DO NOT GO THERE !
DESPOTISM : Despotism can mean dictatorship where the ruler in a particular government is a complete dictator not limited by a constitution, other laws, or the opposition. Despotism can also mean absolutism or tyranny.
Here below for your consideration is a real MAGA speech, not a fake MAGA speech :
“I am certain that my fellow Americans expect that on my induction into the Presidency I will address them with a candor and a decision which the present situation of our people impels. This is preeminently the time to speak the truth, the whole truth, frankly and boldly. Nor need we shrink from honestly facing conditions in our country today. This great Nation will endure as it has endured, will revive and will prosper. So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself—nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance. In every dark hour of our national life a leadership of frankness and vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves which is essential to victory. I am convinced that you will again give that support to leadership in these critical days“……Franklin D. Roosevelt’s 1933 Presidential inauguration speech.
Americans want another such true American hero, with a message of hope and encouragement. Donald Trump is hoping through his bombastic Presidential rhetoric, ad spending and press secretary messaging that he can build a broad based fear where it doesn’t exist. Thus to become our “saviour”, but America will demand a real MAGA leader this time, not a fake one.
Donald Trump is a dangerous demagogue;
“A demagogue is a leader who gains popularity in a democracy by exploiting emotions, prejudice, and ignorance to arouse some against others, whipping up the passions of the crowd and shutting down reasoned deliberation. Demagogues overturn established norms of political conduct, or promise or threaten to do so”.
Benjamin Franklin is said to have declared the following after the convention to draft our US Constitution in 1787…….. A lady asked Dr. Franklin “Well Doctor what have we got a Republic or a Monarchy”….”A Republic” replied the Doctor….”if you can keep it.” WELL CAN WE? Good luck everyone of all political persuasions, we are still a nation united. Let us be sure to keep it that way, regardless of our individual differences….United we stand, divided we fall, remember that ancient wisdom when you vote this year.
