The behavior of Democrats and their
leftist cohorts in the media is positively disgusting, if not outright
unpatriotic. It goes beyond hostility to
President Trump and his administration.
The “Party of Love” has
clearly morphed from the party of sore losers to the “Party of Hate.” Evidence
is mounting.
Since Donald Trump’s election to the
presidency, Senate Democrats led by Chuck Schumer have done everything they can
to prevent the president from confirming his cabinet picks. Except for a few moderates like Senator
Manchin of West Virginia, they have been unified in their opposition to every
action taken and every proposal put forth by the Administration. They vow not to cooperate with Congressional
Republicans in reforming health care, taxes, and immigration. “Resist” is now their battle cry, obstruction
their weapon of choice.
I have never been a big fan of the oafish
and thin-skinned man now occupying the Oval Office, and I don’t agree with all
his policies. But he is my president, and I support his efforts to improve our
economy, our security, and our standing in the world. Constructive criticism is
healthy, but the opposition has been obdurately uncompromising. Rather, it is
bent on destroying the object of its hatred.
How unfortunate it is that the Left
now promotes unhinged attacks on the freedom of speech at town hall meetings
and centers of independent thinking like Berkley. It is hard for me to accept
that our First Amendment protects flag-burning amid posters accusing the
president of being a sexist, a racist, and a homophobe, not to mention a Nazi, a
Fascist, and a member of the KKK. We should not be surprised when young
anarchists take their cue from members of Congress who baselessly call for the
president’s impeachment or who debase their office by shamelessly referring to
his Cabinet as scumbags.
Democrats owe the office of the
presidency a modicum of courtesy, if not for their own self-respect, at least
for the people of this nation who value common decency.
