The “Resistance” warned us that if we elected an authoritarian such as Donald Trump, eventually there would be tanks in the streets of our nation’s capital. Well, on Thursday, their predictions finally came true.
I’m kidding, of course, but some on the left are not. Harvard Law professor Laurence H. Tribe tweeted a photo of tanks arriving in Washington for Trump’s “Salute to America” and declared “The resemblance to days before Tiananmen Square is chilling.” At Tiananmen Square in Beijing in 1989, the Chinese regime broke up pro-democracy protests with tanks and troops in a military action that resulted in a still-uncertain number of deaths

None of us here were surprised by the President’s remarks. We knew this tribute would be all about our country, it’s extraordinary people, and our great military. It was a very moving speech that needed to be heard by everyone. The dems have lost it. They are so far removed from traditional America that I doubt they will ever make their way back or frankly, would ever want to. The American spirit is alive and well and was represented by this President with pride and rightly so. We were reminded of the times that Americans stepped forward to put an end to tyranny and defend freedom at great loss. Once more we are being called to do that very thing not in some foreign land but right here at home. The enemy is now within and may just be the most formidable we have faced. They will not be defeated by experienced warriors but by everyday Americans committed to the founding principles of this country. Our weapon is our vote and we must all answer the call in November 2020. One day our efforts may be heralded in the future by a President when the tale is told about the time freedom was defended right here at home by committed patriots. KAG, Trump 2020.

Trump's critics made Trump's critics look small. Winners focus on winning... Losers focus on winners. (I think Trump said this).

Amazed this is in the Compost. If the donkeys got any smaller, we'd need a microscope just to see them jumping up and down in tantrums. Sadly, no matter how microscopic they become, there will always be voters to keep them coming. I defy someone to find one rational/sane reason to vote for a democrat. I'd offer my mortgage, but its already paid.

No wonder the Dems want to replenish ranks by adding illegals to their side, which has to be diminishing rapidly, due to their craziness and anti-Americanism. Last night should really worry them, to know that there are so many people who love this country and love Trump. Desperation time on the left! The words from people like Lawrence Tribe should be played and replayed, in case some independents haven't got the message.

Bottom line: President Trump loves America and is not afraid to say it. May God continue to bless him as he leads America to victory over the Communists on our soil trying to take over.

The hysteria from the left in the lead up to the parade left me wondering if perhaps....just maybe.... these people should wait and see if Trump does something objectionable instead of accusing him in advance.
Ill be waiting for the apologies and mea culpas.

EVERY time the Left confronts Trump, they come off very badly. Think back to the wooden response of their two top leaders, Schumer and Pelosi, to Trump's border speech. The only way they they can function is to throw mud from the shadows but they are becoming more and more unhinged. 2020 is going to pull up the rock they congregate under and shine some sunlight on them. They are bugs.

His critics always look small. Ridiculously minuscule, in fact.

This will have no effect on the perpetual glass-half-empty left.

In reality, dems hate themselves.It's the root cause of their behavior if you think about it. And many are malignant narcissists and are in a rage right now over the fact that the President highlights and calls out their illness. Pray for their healing. And pray for our greatest president, Donald J. Trump.

Loving America and being proud of her IS contrary to the Democrats’ message of hate against America.
Patriotism is partisanship to this breed of Democrat.
It’s why they sue to remove flags from polling places. Scientifically proven to cause an uptick in not voting for Democrats.

The censorship by the MSM made sure most Americans did not see this tribute to America and our Armed Forces. I had to go to You-Tube to to find a site which broadcast the entire event. Meanwhile, in New York, the high point was Jennifer Hudson singing "Somewhere over the Rainbow".

Trump continually does rope-a-dope on his critics. The TDS types make it almost too easy.
