Those who happened to be tuned into Fox News last night
for President Trump’s third State of the Union address would have heard, Chris
Wallace, one of the many leftwing NeverTrumpers who have come to reside there
at Fox, thoroughly poo-poo the president’s address before then turning right
around and heaping all manner of praise on what was described as being the
Democrat Party’s official ‘response’ given by, she who like Hitlery refuses to
admit defeat, Stacey Abrams, who had obviously been cleaned up more than just a
bit before her appearance on national television.
Despite Wallace’s rather glowing critique, Ms.
Abrams droned on for I’m not sure how long doing little more than to magically transport
those watching back in time, back to the 1960s, as the picture she painted of
America bore very little resemblance to America as it actually exists here in
2019. And it was in fairly short order that
it became rather apparent that she was much less interested in simply
responding to the president’s address than she was in creating some sort of
alternate universe as she claimed the president’s policies were actually
damaging the American economy.
And it was in speaking before an audience made up
almost exclusively of women that Abrams didn’t stray too far from the talking
points that she had likely been provided with by Chuckie Schumer. As evidenced by when she said, “The
Republican tax bill rigged the system against working people. Rather than
bringing back jobs, plants are closing, layoffs are looming, and wages struggle
to keep pace with the actual cost of living.”
Now anyone watching, and who has been paying the least bit of attention
over the last couple of years, had to be scratching their head at that one.
It was in listening to Abrams, which was something I
actually had to force myself to do, that she seemed, at least to me, to have
lost her grip on reality. The Trump tax
cuts offered relief to middle-class families. More than that, they helped the economy soar
to 3 percent annual growth, creating 304,000 new jobs last month alone, and
boosting wages for blue-collar workers. In
fact, blue-collar wages are now rising faster than wages for white-collar
workers, as has reported by any number of reliable news outlets. And overall wage growth is at its best pace in
over a decade.
Yes, there have been the occasional plant closures
but they have been overwhelmed by the number of new job openings. Currently, there are more jobs available in
the U.S. than there are unemployed people to fill them. Manufacturing, in
particular, has soared, the U.S. economy has defied the low expectations of the
Barry ‘O’ era to add the most manufacturing jobs in more than 20 years. Remember how Barry once declared it would take
some sort of “magic wand” to bring manufacturing jobs back to America? It was a magic wand in the form of lower
taxes and fewer regulations.
And I thought it rather odd when Ms. Abrams actually
said, “Democrats stand ready to effectively secure our ports and borders.” That too didn’t exactly jive with the way
things truly exist, because the border plan House Democrats offered to the
president this month was one that demands that all immigration enforcement end,
by the end of Fiscal Year 2019, for any adult crossing the border with a child.
Rather than being held in detention, those adults and the migrant children they
trafficked across the border would be released immediately into the interior of
the country.
Also, the House Democrat offer does not include ANY
money to construct a wall, much less a barrier, at our southern border, but it
does provide about $502 million for “humanitarian concerns”, funding that
illegal aliens and border crossers would have access to in the form of food,
transportation, medical care, and housing.
So I’m not exactly sure how it is that Ms. Abrams interprets that as the
Democrats standing ready to “effectively secure our ports and borders.” And it’s by making such a patently untrue
statement that she reveals herself as being nothing but a hack politician.
Another talking point presented by Abrams concerned
the recent partial government shutdown. Abrams
said, “The shutdown was a stunt engineered by the president of the United
States, one that defied every tenet of fairness and abandoned not just our
people—but our values.” But again truth
becomes much stranger than fiction. Because
you see, the Senate passed a spending measure to fund the government through
February without the border wall funding the president had demanded. But the House, still under Republican control,
passed a bill with wall funding.
The shutdown began December 22, and during one of
the negotiating meetings at the White House, on January 9, the president said
he would reopen the government immediately if Democrats agreed to funding a
border wall. Pelosi said no, and the president left the meeting. Ten days later the president offered to
extend the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program in exchange
for a wall. Pelosi again said no. On
January 25, the president agreed to sign a bill funding the government for
three more weeks until a border security deal can be reached.
And of course Abrams brought up what has long been
another old favorite of Democrats, that being the supposed issue of ‘voter
suppression.’ Abrams said she accepts
her 2018 loss in the Georgia governor’s race, but “cannot accept efforts to
undermine our right to vote.” Abrams
said, “Let’s be clear, voter suppression is real.” And in spewing what is nothing more than the
party line, she said, “From making it harder to register and stay on the rolls
to moving and closing polling places to rejecting lawful ballots, we can no
longer ignore these threats to democracy.”
But it’s a funny thing, because according to Hans
von Spakovsky, manager of the Election Law Reform Initiative at The Heritage
Foundation, it was during the eight year reign of Barry ‘O’ that the Justice
Department brought just ‘5’ cases related to race-based voter suppression under
Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. And
it was he who pointed out that what Democrats often mean when they start
throwing around claims of “voter suppression” is a reference to voter ID laws
which require persons to produce photo identification before they are allowed
to vote at their polling place.
And it was also von Spakovsky who pointed out another
interesting fact, that those like Abrams might have a bit of a hard time trying
to explain away. You see, in an op-ed that
he did for National Review, he explained how it was that “nine of the 11 states
that have implemented so-called strict ID Laws either saw an increase in
turnout or exceeded the national average in turnout in 2016.” So how is it that this genius, Abrams, can
explain that little phenomenon, I wonder?
Chances are it’s facts such as those that the Democrats will simply
choose to treat as if they don’t exist.
Sadly, it’s women like Abrams, and Hitlery, who give
women a bad name. They claim to be strong, intelligent women yet they whine and
complain at every turn. They seem unable to lose with grace and dignity,
choosing to attack the winner instead of looking for why they lost. They pull the sexist card, the race card or
claim that they were somehow cheated out of their rightful victory. They make
women look weak and fragile and unable to deal with reality. They are not role
models. Truly strong women are capable of learning from their losses, dust
themselves off and just move on.
In Abrams we have another Obama disciple who tells
emotional stories, but delivers no substance, facts, or solutions to Americans.
She’s a very dangerous person because she actually believes what she’s saying,
which is spoon fed from her party of lawless, infant killing, anti-American
sociopaths that want nothing more than to see America in decline so they can
keep their ‘modern’ form of slavery alive, keeping American families dependent
on bigger and bigger government. America is not the nation of leeches, America
has done more for the human race than any other nation in history.
The President has accomplished remarkable things for
our country and for our people, ALL of our people. The Democrats, as made clear
by Abrams response, can only criticize while their constituents benefit from
the president’s many accomplishments.
All we have here out of the mouth of the Democrats are promises of all
manner of ‘free’ stuff. The sad part of
it is that the Democrats know ‘free’ (Socialism) doesn't work but they feel if
they can get enough people to vote for their ‘free’ agenda, they will be in
power forever. We the American people
must be smarter than that!
