Trump´s army of ´the uncovered´

Original Article

A funny thing happened on the way to the 2016 presidential election. The unelectable, uncouth, unintelligent, unpolitical, unlikeable, and utterly unthinkable guy won. Clearly, the "deplorables" assisted, as did the "bitter clingers" — owners of guns and Bibles — and the so-called uneducated, unsophisticated, and ridiculed patriotic swath of the American people. But it took more. The uncovereds carried President Trump over the finish line to unbelievable victory. Who and what are the uncovereds? They are the silent army who are passionately pro-Trump but wouldn´t and still won´t admit it. Why? one might ask. Were they cowards?In the months leading

They are people like my daughter and her husband, both with PhD´s and working in fields that would blacklist them from ever working if it came out they were Conservative.

They keep their politics quiet at work, and for!

I’m not a coward, just prudent. How can you defend yourself from genuine cowards like the ones who snuck onto my property in the dark of the night and painted pink swastikas on my step-son’s car, parked outside, because my wife, in 2008, stuck a yard sign for Prop 8 (marriage is to be between a man and a woman)? After that, no more yard signs nor bumper stickers. Now, we have dogs, security cameras, and motion lights. Of course, I voted for Trump and am ready to do it again!

I pray that this is really a trend because the very existence of this country as a Representative Republic hangs on a 2020 Trump victory. Anyone with a brain understands that if a democrat wins the presidency, the country will fly off the cliff so fast it will make your head spin. The United States will be finished as we know it. It will become a miserable place to live where freedom is lost and financial disaster is sure. God help us to prevent that from ever happening because the political barbarians are focused on destroying the country and they are charging the gates.

I keep my mouth shut in my business dealings unless I know that the person I’m with is a conservative. I don’t have any leftist friends and only one family member who is, but he already knows where I stand and we just don’t go there.

As a gauge of how bad things have gotten... I had a “Don’t blame me - I voted for Palin” sticker on my car for the first four years of Smidgen’s reign of error and never had a problem, even when driving through leftist areas like Chicago, but I wouldn’t dare put a Trump sticker on my car.

I do have an American flag decal on the rear window of my car and my license plate says “God Bless America” and also has an American flag on it. I figure that they show my political leanings since I can’t imagine a leftist having those on his/her car.

Interesting theory and possibly true in some parts of the country but my experience was the total opposite. I traveled the highways of my Northeastern state with Trump/Pence sticker proudly displayed and saw many of the same. Very few stickers for Hillary except on Subaru Outbacks passing through on the Interstate. It was the same with yard signs, hundreds on display for Trump and very few for the fat lady from Chappaqua. I was one of those who just knew that Trump was going to win that election.

I did receive a lecture while contracting at a large health insurance firm for talking politics at work, mostly for badmouthing Bathhouse Barry within earshot of black employees but tough, they needed to hear it after their boy proved himself to be a colossal failure. I wasn´t fired but I would have laughed my way out the door if I had been.

This is good stuff, but isn´t the language backwards? What are called "uncovered" are actually covering themselves. Or am I missing something?

BOY, do I relate to THIS. I am not part of any identity group but I just don´t speak to anyone about it. I have a "conservative" friend who likes what Trump is doing but wants him to "shut up". He can´t see the REASON that Trump needs to speak out and that his success is directly related to him speaking out. I talk with my wife who is modestly conservative but mostly just a rational person. She gets it but is often unaware of things until I point them out and explain.

What I am always amazed about is how brainwashed the average person is to not question that the dems are doing. Can´t they SEE how wrong the dems are? The media has done an amazing job of blinding the public to dem corruption and incompetence. Further, people get disturbed if you try to point out the wrongness of what is going on. They like their quiet untroubled lives. They just don´t want the hassle of trying to sort it all out. Many of them resent that Trump is shaking things up, EVEN IF IT IS FOR, they agree, THE RIGHT REASONS.

Well, here´s what I´d like to do to make the DTS crowd and the GOP and all the snowflakes and especially the Marxist media complex come unglued. I would get Trump and Melania look-alikes, fly them to Moscow with a film crew, set them up in the presidential suite at the Moscow Hilton, hire some real Russian hookers, DRAW the faces of Michelle and the Holy Hawaiian on the bed sheets and throw rubles at the hookers while filming them urinate on the drawn faces of Michelle and the Holy Hawaiian while playing Nilsson´s "Your Breaking My Heart," create a channel on Roku and play the video loop from now until the 2020 elections.

I am a proud Deplorable. However, I do not wish to have my car vandalized or my front garden trashed. So I will remain silent. If I want to talk politics with someone I don´t know I have to kind of gently feel out where they are politically before moving on.

Luckily I live in a rural (red) area but you still don´t really know. Still, there is one county road where a resident put up his Trump Pence sign 25 feet up a telephone pole in his front yard to keep it from being stolen. It is still there.

Love, Honor, Truth

I would prefer to see this support base, that seems to defy attempts to apply a defining labels, as people not ready and willing to turn their backs on the concept of a constitutional republic. That definition leaves a wide range of things to disagree on making it difficult to define.

It is also not popular to accept the fact that so many actually do intend to end the experiment in self governance making it difficult to accept the existence of a group that does not.

My support for Trump is based on the best hope for salvaging our founding principles. My support has certainly grown as I have been pleasantly surprised that he has proven to be far better than simply a means of stopping Hillary.

As for public discourse I have to be careful of offending the little darlings at work who love to share their wisdom without a concern in the world for offending anyone else. That´s mostly because they don´t see any knuckles dragging so there can´t be Trump supporters around. They really don´t know that we come in all cleaned up educated forms with full sets of teeth and shoes.

Put a bumper sticker supporting Trump on your
vehicle and within a few days, the vehicle is vandalized. That is the type of opponents Conservatives face. Just VOTE on election day
and disregard the venom the Left spews in a coordinated effort ,daily. Many are unPatriotic, UnAmerican scum, listenting to their delusional ´leaders´. They want Trump´s taxes, they want to impeach him, they are simply filled with hatred. Worse, they are irrational.

I worked in a school where I would get "talked over" or talked down to .. never got a chance to express my thoughts. A few other conservatives worked there and we knew and talked to each other.
No bumperstickers on cars because they were keyed or otherwise damaged.
I agree that Trump signs were on lawns, Clinton signs at intersections placed by union workers.
I do wish that Dems would remove their No Hate Lives Here signs because I would love to slap an "except for Trump" sticker over it.

No bumper stickers. However, I will put a sign in my front yard at election time and the flag out on all Holidays. I´m fortunate my next door neighbors does the same. I´ve noticed there are more flags waving these days then there was back in the Obama years.

For years, I was always afraid to express my political preference when the occasion arose. Not anymore. I look the liberals straight in the eye and say I´m a proud American and a proud conservative voter.

This is what I admired about the Tea Party and sure hope they reignite their passion in 2020.

The democrats have completely underestimated Trump, starting with the presidential campaign and now continuing with what has turned out to be, for liberals, the Mueller debacle.

Polls indicate that voters are more interested in the economy and illegal migration yet the left is still stuck on stupid with their impeachment talk. Barring Trump kicking a puppy on live TV I can only see these developments translating into a landslide victory in 2020.

They simply don´t have the time to be endlessly abused. They have jobs. They go to work each day and they work hard. They are supporting their families, praying to their God and pursuing happiness. They knew, instinctively, that Hillary was a gonef from the get-go and they liked the Donald´s grit and determination. They have been proven correct. The country is great again, no thanks to the August Fauxbama and his sleazy minions.

Shouldn´t we be referred to as the "undercover-ed"?

We all have friends and relatives we have lost because of our votes and support for Republicans going back to Bush v. Gore. Trump is just the next chapter.

In my opinion it all comes down to character. I have no problem with anyone having a different opinion. I thought those supporting Obama, Clinton, Kerry, etc. were merely misled and, in many cases, childish thinkers.

On the reverse side, they don´t just disagree with me ... they hate me! Yup, face it ... so called "friends" and relatives actually hate your guts if you disagree with them! Tough to swallow but there it is.

The Progressive/Democrats and the MSM have become evermore vicious in their assault on anybody does not support them. It is no longer restricted to vial verbal assaults, it has progress to physical attacks and vandalism.

Progressive/Democrats and the MSM want to criminalize thought and ideas they do not agree with.

Hopefully, there is a growing number of "the uncovered" who are aware of the threat and will vote the rascals out.

The amusing facet to the 2016 election was that there were so many "stealth" conservative voters out here is that the democrats´ polls were all hopelessly wrong and they got blindsided on election night. Hillary´s champagne bottle going through the big screen was a nice finishing touch to her busted dream.

Part of the reason that democrat voters don´t "get it" is that there is still a mystique out there that people in government are smarter and more honest than the average person. Obama did not successfully kill that illusion for them but he certainly did for those of us who are "woke."

I have always thought that the term bitter clingers was best applied to the democrat side of the aisle. After all, they are the ones who are throwing the tantrums, and clinging to impossible fantasies as though they were reality. Bitter clinger describes an SJW/PC Snowflake very well. Like their idol Hillary, they just cannot let go.

The army of ´uncovered´ (undercover?) are all those people who won´t discuss politics with friends, family, or co-workers because they know there will be an argument or worse. Nor do they talk to the media.

They have their say at the voting booth.

These people don´t buy into political correctness. They don´t believe or trust the media. The don´t believe or trust politicians of either party. They don´t trust strangers. They see the country changing and don´t like it. They see people losing jobs or have lost a job. They see people coming into the country that don´t believe in America´s ideals.

Usually there isn´t a real choice, but that changed with Trump. He is more a nationalist that believes in protecting the country and its citizens. Something neither party does a real good job at.

I don´t put political stickers on my car anymore. I refuse to put political signs in my yard.

BUT . . . I have never voted for anyone running on a Democrat ticket. And I voted for Trump.

I´d rather live at peace than be physically or verbally assaulted. I´d rather not have my property vandalized. I´d rather not be the victim of road rage.

The only speech the Left believes should be free is their own. Everyone else must pay for their speech with their blood, sweat, toil, and tears. Turns out progressives are so progressive. Talk about a return to the middle ages -- or to cave man days!

I volunteer with a group that is mostly retired teachers and librarians, so I keep my mouth shut a lot. They is one man that wears a MAGA hat or shirt, and he has been told not to discus politics.

When I was housebound with a broken leg, he was the one friend who would come to take me to my doctor appointments, and he gave me a "Trump 2020" shirt. I knew it would upset my DIL, so I just hung it in the back of my closet.

Every day I pick up my granddaughter after school, and now she has a friend who plays at our house until a parent gets off work. One day, I had a copy of Yuge! (30 years of Doonesbury) in the car and Amy said, "Why do you have a book about Trump, he´s never done anything but build Trump Tower and be president!"

I told her about some of the things Trump had done before he ran for President.
The next day, that shirt came out of the closet!

When I got to the volunteer site, one of the ladies saw my shirt and asked about it, I told her it was because of Amy. Then she asked if I had gotten "converted" by Marc, I said I hadn´t asked for it, but he gave it to me. But I wasn´t brave enough to come out of the closet, even retired liberals can get violent.

I don´t sport a TRUMP bumper sticker because I love my truck and don´t want it keyed.

I don´t wear colors at SoCal sporting events or anywhere else because I´m awash in a sea of brain-withering a-holes out here.

Those of us that live in lib areas have to be careful. Obama The Last taught us that.

The last 6 months before elections out here, armies of earnest-looking college students with clipboards would ring EVERY doorbell. If you didn´t answer, they would mark that down and come back again.

If this ever happens to you, the proper response is to never answer the door. If you tell them you are a Republican, you are dead meat. If you try to lie and tell them you are a Democrat, they will try to to trip you up.

There are opportunities for payback though. If there are local libs that are especially obnoxious, it might be fun to get a few Trump/Pence 2020 bumper stickers and put them on the libs´ cars...

I live in an area of NE Florida that is pretty red, but I wouldn´t put a Trump sticker on my car in case there are any "Stealth leftists" in my apartment complex. I also don´t want to have to deal with road rage and vandalism when I go shopping. However, I WILL make my voice heard in the voting booth. Last fall, I voted straight GOP, and if there wasn´t a Republican running for a particular office, I left that section blank rather than vote for the leftist on the ballot.

When I lived in Vermont, no matter where I worked, NO ONE knew my political views. I worked in a newsroom selling classified ads and, let me tell you, those people, including my boss and her supervisor, were as hardcore leftist as is humanly possible. If I had made my views known, I would have been out of a job for the stupidest of reasons in half a heartbeat (I saw this done).

I DID, however, wear a bright red sweater on election day in 2016. I don´t think anyone put it together with the day.

In a series of indignant tweets on Thursday, President Trump pushed back on liberal outrage over his comments to ABC's George Stephanopoulos. I meet and talk to “foreign governments” every day. I just met with the Queen of England (U.K.), the Prince of Wales, the P.M. of the United Kingdom, the P.M. of Ireland, the President of France and the President of Poland.

In reality, his “Big Idea” would damage the framework our founders put in place to protect the people from tyranny.“America over time has grown more democratic and I think that's a good thing, but it's not a one-way street.

As we reported two days ago, Joe Biden completely made no sense when he was trying to explain the Wuhan coronavirus relief bill. It was really bad and it explains why they’re afraid to have him deliver an address to Congress or do any kind of a real solo press conference, because at this point they have to be afraid this is all going to fall apart if he does anything live and this all becomes too obvious to the American people. But there’s only so long that they can hold this off. And it’s getting worse, as video today revealed. Biden was holding an event to announce the nomination

During the interviews on Sunday, Manchin repeatedly claimed that he was not open to ending the filibuster because he did not want to strip the minority party of their power in the Senate, but signaled that he was open to changing it.Fox News host Chris Wallace asked Manchin if he would consider “reforming the filibuster” if “Republicans

Prince Harry’s American wife accused his family of hateful racism against her baby, claimed they refused to protect her and drove her to the point of suicide.She made the incendiary and implausible charge that when she was pregnant with Archie, the royal family decreed that her unborn son would be denied the title of “prince” because her mixed race meant he might have dark skin.

Nancy Pelosi’s top priority is to turn America into a one-party nation ruled by Democrats. Her bill HR 1 trashes the U.S. Constitution in an attempt to rig the system and make it virtually impossible to elect a Republican president or Congress again. It’s a power grab. The bill eviscerates state voting laws and forces all the states to conform to a set of rules that includes automatic voter registration. Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote. Noncitizens are obligated to identify themselves and opt out,

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.

The Washington Times in 2019 first reported Democrats’ bid to strip the longtime FBI director’s name from the bureau’s headquarters. Mr. Cohen said the impetus to revive the bid is the new movie, “Judas and the Black Messiah.” The movie details

“There must have been a moment, at the beginning, when we could have said –-no. But somehow we missed it.” Tom Stoppard The millions of Americans who were paying attention throughout the 2020 election campaign all became painfully aware of the fact that Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities were slipping and slipping fast. His wife, as the person closest to him, should have been the one to call the campaign quits in order to reduce stress on the man. Instead, apparently so anxious to become the First Lady by any means necessary, Mrs. Biden continued to push her failing husband’s campaign forward as if he were mentally qualified.
