Democratic Party is Anti-Black

All throughout our history the Democratic Party was the party of slavery. Not just in the South but also the North. They also opposed women’s right to vote. Just look it up. It is there in history books. The KKK members were Democrats. When Truman desegregated the military the Democratic Dixie Party was created. With the passage of the Civil Rights acts of 1964, Lyndon Johnson said we now have the Black votes. They were taken as a given as if they only voted their skin color not issues. Biden actually inferred this in a recent interview when comparing latinos to blacks. The black lives matter movement is also associated with the Democrats. Harris referred to George Floyd in her acceptance speech. .That makes them anti-police. Never a word said about the chaos in our cities. It is the black people who suffer most with police removed from their communities. In 2016 Trump asked to be given a chance. “What have you got to lose?” He was able to increase black employment and increased wages. He also supported the black colleges and lowered the prison population. He will do so again once the virus is under control.

The Case for Trump

Victor Davis Hanson I discovered this historian while listening to programs sponsored by Hillsdale College. They were the details about the process of writing the Constitution and a critique of WWII. On U-tube I found a short video providing his personal history and education. I have been greatly impressed by his insight and knowledge. It is with this background that caused me to purchase and read a book he wrote about Trump before the election and through the first two years of his presidency. The Case for Trump The author writes about the events leading up to the debates between the large group of Republican Senators, Governors and other notable candidates. It concludes at the end of Trump’s first two years as President. I believe any person who would read this book would give the author credit that he gave a critique including the positive and the negatives about this man who without any political experience was able to eliminate each of his rivals by blistering attacks and ridicule never before witnessed in my lifetime. As the process was unfolding Trump held huge rallies all over the country creating excitement and enthusiasm among the common people. He would make outrageous comments which infuriated the liberal press who unwittingly gave him countless hours of free advertisement while others like Jeb Bush spent millions on TV ads while only earning low digit approval. He then took on Hillary Clinton and narrowly defeated her by winning more States and amassing Electoral College votes enough to win even though Clinton had two million plus more total votes. Trump realized he had no chance in States like California, New York and Illinois, so he concentrated on States like Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida as well as visiting all other Midwestern States. His margin of victory in many was very slim. Clinton had no doubt that she would win against this crude upstart and neglected to campaign as hard as he. She and the country and indeed the entire world were astounded that she would lose. The calls to eliminate the Electoral College rose to a crescendo afterword. Trump as President was treated with contempt and one process after the other was initiated to overturn the election and remove him from office to no avail. What it did was make it extremely hard for him to govern. He not only had the Democrats to contend with but also Republicans. An interesting fact is that like Reagan, Trump had been a lifelong Democrat often supporting Democrats like Chuck Shumer, Nancy Pelosi and the Clintons. We have become hardened by the political process of candidates telling us what we want to hear but once elected fail to carry out those promises. Trump has actually concentrated on his issues to the astonishment of us all. The tragic thing is that causes which were universally agreed needing attention were fiercely opposed once they became his. For example, Illegal Immigration. Bill Clinton as President included it in his state of the union speech. Senator Shumer and other Democrats gave speeches on the negative effect it had on employment opportunities for American workers. Once Trump made it a priority no Democrat would support anymore. Whatever he accomplished was done in spite of total opposition. The tax reduction was enacted without a single Democrat vote. This last comment is my own. For the Democrats to claim in the current election that they will make jobs a high priority is a sick joke. During their last eight years in power our jobs were systematically shifted to other countries with no attempt to reverse and illegal immigrants flooded into our country.
