I have a question. What use is a federal government that refuses to protect our basic constitutional rights? Twitter and Google and Facebook are censoring and demonizing conservative political speech, and nobody does a thing. Democrat mayors and governors are bankrupting American citizens by preventing them from engaging in simple commerce, and they're getting away with it. Street mobs across America are causing millions of dollars in property damage, destroying priceless historical monuments; killing police officers; and targeting random, unlucky citizens based on the color of their skin, and the press cheerlead the madness and defend the murderers and arsonists as heroes.

People treat you like you let them. Stop letting them mistreat you.

Excellent article on what is happening in America. A Must Read. We can be silent no more. We need to protest and vote in November. Let's roll!

These Leftists can get away with murder. There is a blatant double standard in place. If we took up arms to defend ourselves and the memorials, I believe the government would have no problem dispersing us with tear gas, rubber bullets, and other means. So what do we do??

We all now know WHAT has happened. There is endless discussion print and broadcast on what effect it is having on our society, culture and our future. The only important thing between now and Nov 3 is what we can do about it - realistically. Saying - go vote, is like saying buy low and sell high to make money in stocks. Individuals without money or access cannot effect the entire entire country but we must begin to look closer. Family, friends, extended community, children's teachers/schools - sometimes at the cost of opposition or criticism. Donate - our side needs the funds desperately. Merely shaking your fist at the TV every evening is not going to change much.

What can we do? Pray. Read the Bible. We need God on our side more than ever. If you have not done so, accept His Son as your Savior.

For the most part, we are on our own or in like-minded groups and we do what we can without outside help. The federal government has never been on our side. Personally, I have dropped all use of Facebook and Google and have an arsenal ready to defend the immediate territory in and around my home. We have had it demonstrated to us in the past three years just how much the DOJ and FBI can be corrupted. I have dropped all support of un-American institutions like hollywood, the NFL and all products that support and coddle leftist causes. It's down to us and the Constitution and any rights we have are those we are willing to defend.

They are ginning up hatred for a group so they can kill them off where the rest of the population will say "they brought it on themselves."

It is hard to believe that many good folk still think that voting is the answer to our problems. The cities are burning because they are full of Leftists. The rural areas are fighting back because they are full of Conservatives. Socialists and mobs love city life and its "safety" in numbers. The lovers of families and freedoms enjoy life to the fullest in rural areas with great towns, not cities. Voting has nothing to do with it, or at least not very much. Again, if you want true happiness, get out of the city and do what #7 says. You will never make the Left happy and you can never vote away evil.

Demosluts controlled D.C. for more than 40 years until Newt and the Republicans won the House in the mid nineties. Many in higher positions in government are there because the dems had that power for so long. The Republicans still think they have no power even when they control in the House, Senate, and the White House. Plus, the Republicans play by the rules, while the demosluts make up rules that help them keep power as they go along. It's way past time to start playing like the demosluts. Use scorched earth policy when dealing with a party that wants to destroy the nation.

Yeah, let's join the victim culture by dwelling on all the ways that other people oppress us. Then we can expand to bellyache about how we are victimized by life, itself.
Refuse to play that game. "In all these things we conquer overwhelmingly through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor present things, nor future things, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor BLM nor Antifa, nor Communists nor Islamists, nor Femnazis nor Gender-Confusion Mafia, nor any other creature will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord."
I may have mangled that attempt to adapt the passage to our time; but the Liberal gestapo wants to force everybody to live as they say and view the world their way, and they absolutely defeat us when we turn into one of them. Say no to that crap.

I agree with #10 and also have observed that reliance on any political figure, regardless of party or the fleeting notions of popularity, is a sure ticket to oblivion. Since the emergence of Homo sapiens, collective human effort, and human conflict, survival, far more often than not, depends on killing the enemy before the enemy kills you.

#10, I don't agree.
The argument needs to be stated to those suburban voters, and others, who've supported the liberal/progressive mantra for decades to help change their minds in November.
I also believe Trump needs to tone down his ad-lib comments, or off-the-cuff type comments, and stick to a script of simple, common themes that don't disparage anyone, or give that impression.
Focus on the fact that he knows how many feel about being targeted and wrongly persecuted simply for who they are. He, and many who originally served in the administration, knows they were targeted and attacked simply for who they were.
I believe an argument can be made against liberal/progressives marginalizing and essentially managing African-American communities in most major inner-cities by isolating them, segregating them into "sections" or "areas" which they are then able to "manage the situation".
Question the devotion, just like Trump said, "what do you have to lose" comment to African-Americans.
He can say it again, and say he honestly understands their pain - "I've been attacked, spied on, investigated, and they even held a sham impeachment process".
