Democrats speaking about saving democracy sound just like the navy throughout the Vietnam War.
That was when a well-known, or notorious, quote throughout the 1968 Tet Offensive, wherein the Viet Cong took over a contested city, made its technique to the American individuals.
“It became necessary to destroy the town to save it,” a U.S. Army main informed New Zealander Peter Arnett of the Associated Press, a fellow reporter I met as a newcomer in Saigon.
The seasoned struggle correspondent labored for the AP when, not like at this time, the information company was revered for its objectivity, accuracy, and steadiness.
Reporters later reworked the quote to learn: “We had to destroy the village in order to save it.”
Today, contemplating the most recent progressive Democrat assault on Donald Trump and democracy within the U.S., both quote would do. But it could come out this fashion: “We had to destroy democracy in order to save it.”
That is what Joe Biden and the Democrats are doing to democracy and the nation of their dictatorial, scorched earth try and preserve Trump, the frontrunning presidential candidate, from returning to the White House.
And they’re reaching again to the Civil War to provide the 14th Amendment to the Constitution that banned Confederate insurgent “insurrectionists” from holding public workplace. In the method, they use loopy speak to show the Jan. 6 Capitol riot into an try, supported by Trump, to overthrow the U.S. authorities and preserve him in energy.
It just isn’t working as a result of each time the Democrats distort actuality and corrupt the authorized course of to go after Trump, the previous president will get stronger, rises within the polls, raises extra marketing campaign cash and attracts extra Americans to his trigger.
Which is why Democrats don’t even need him on the poll, because the Hail Mary phony Jan. 6 “insurrectionist” resolution kicking him off the poll in Colorado by 4 appointed Democrat judges final week confirmed. In the method, they turned Colorado right into a banana republic with out the bananas.
The U.S. Supreme Court can’t negate this ruling quick sufficient, which it certainly will.
If the president of Mexico or Guatemala did this to a presidential challenger of their international locations, the U.S. would at the very least be imposing sanctions as punishment.
In December 1989, President George H.W. Bush ordered the invasion of Panama to oust dictator Gen. Manuel Noriega, an indicted drug trafficker, after he refused to depart workplace following his defeat for reelection by his opponent Guillermo Endara. The U.S. misplaced 23 troopers and two civilians in that invasion, whereas the Panama Defense Force had 314 males killed together with 202 civilians.
Under the Biden administration, the president is extra prone to award the Colorado judges with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian award.
And because the Biden and the Democrats search to wreck Trump a technique or one other, they’re wrecking democracy as effectively, all of the whereas placing the blame on Trump. It is named projection — you blame others for what you might be doing to them.
The Democrats rightly worry that Trump will defeat a feeble and confused Joe Biden so they’re, one devious approach or one other, making an attempt to strip him of his proper to run for president regardless of the results. They are additionally searching for to strip the suitable of American residents to vote for him.
Biden, staring defeat by the hands of Trump, relishes the considered Trump being kicked off the poll. He mentioned it was “self-evident” that Trump, supported an “insurrection” in opposition to the United States. “No question about it. None Zero.”
Were he not an empty go well with, Biden, within the curiosity of preserving democracy, would trash the Colorado resolution and defend the suitable of Americans to decide on the following president. By mocking Trump, he mocks them.
Trump has by no means been legally accused, charged, indicted or tried for “insurrection.”
Biden will say or do something to cling to energy as he leads the nation down the drain.
Anything goes, together with the Democrats weaponizing and corrupting the nation’s justice system not solely to destroy it, however to maintain a barely functioning mentally and bodily challenged outdated man in energy.
I consider Peter Arnett and the dropping of America. I examine it to Vietnam.
It is March 1967 in Vietnam the place all people is loopy. We are by a river at a jungle clearing the place a firefight had damaged out.
He turns to me and says, “You are losing this war, mate.”
“How can you tell?” I ask, stunned.
“I count the body bags.”
