Barack Hussein Obama was a U.S. president from January 20, 2009 to January 20, 2017
There are many direct correlations to be made from the Obama presidency to the state of our union pre-President Trump.
Barack Obama had an opportunity to unify our country as the first African American president. He chose, rather to be the divider-in-chief and fuel racial discrimination in the US.
He also chose to leverage the office of the president to wield our justice system as a tool to remain in power and disenfranchise American voters.
Remember his world “apology tour” immediately upon assuming the presidency? He used the tour to diminished the premise of American exceptionalism!
I submit the Obama presidency could have been one of the greatest presidencies in our history – if he had only loved our country.
The Democrat party has become the most prolific sponsor of domestic terrorism in the United States.
I wish I were embellishing.
President Donald Trump was elected on his promise to close our borders to illegal immigration and strategically remove illegals within our country, beginning with, but not limited to, the criminals.
Less than 6 months following his inauguration, he has already successfully closed our borders, something Joe Biden and Kamala Harris said couldn’t be done without legislation.
The majority of Americans are ecstatic they finally elected a president willing to keep his promises!
Yet Democrats are not only encouraging criminal behaviors in aiding and abetting these illegals, in liberal states like California, they are willing to provide taxpayer dollars to these illegal aliens for legal fees! Additionally, they are willing to not only provide sanctuary but provide some sort of alert support system when ICE agents are planning to sweep the area.
Multiple news outlets report that illegal attacks on the law enforcement individuals are up over 700 percent! And Democrats are cheering them on!
In blue states across the country we are seeing protests, often involving rock throwing, bottles hurled, and even guns being fired in an attempt to stop these brave individuals from doing their jobs.
Any rational person would agree this is inappropriate, lawless behavior, but no one on the left has condemned these protests.
But Democrats have ceased being rational. They have ceased representation. They have embarked upon a progressive agenda that simply involves “anti-Trump” rhetoric. If President Trump supports it, we must fight it, regardless of the impact on U.S. citizens.
Democrats are showing a complete disregard for our country and the rule of law. It simply does not matter to them any longer if it ever really did.
Initially, Trump Derangement Syndrome was a term that facetiously referenced the hatred of our president. But something, truly, has happened to these individuals who were elected by their constituents to represent them in our republic.
They seem to be willing to turn a blind eye to violence, murder, rape, human trafficking and even death to see President Donald Trump fail – at anything.
We can only hope and pray that voters see the light and realize Democrats no longer represent them.
They are, in fact and in action, putting their constituent’s lives at risk.
LOS ANGELES — Leftwing nonprofit groups are openly helping to fuel anti-ICE riots here by handing out “F–k ICE” packs with protective equipment — as protesters continue to take over downtown every night and engage in rolling battles with cops, federal agents and National Guard troops.
Chilling footage revealed one unidentified group handing out a truckload of face shields and other riot gear to protesters in downtown Los Angeles. The “F–k ICE” packages — which include goggles, facemasks, gloves and a phone number for “jail support” — are being assembled and distributed by a nonprofit called Operation Healthy Grassroots.
It’s just one of several organizations that started as grassroots community aid agencies, but have been wading into politics and throwing their weight behind left-wing street protests.At least one group received federal funding before the Trump administration turned off the spigot.
All conservative media must STOP calling this group of left wing idealists the “Democratic Party”! “Democratic” is an adjective relating to democracy and its principles! It is simply the “Democrat party” And they’ve lost their way – badly!
The Democrat Party is dying beneath the weight of its own ignorance and the unwillingness of elected officials to represent their constituency. They choose, rather, to leverage their bully pulpit to espouse their liberal ideology.
This is NOT the foundation of our Republic.
Choosing the wrong side of every sociopolitical issue is the wrong way to advance their party or our nation.
Who do they feel they represent in these 90/10 or 80/20 issues?
The fact is, they couldn’t care less!
They are not interested in representation, only advancing a far left, socialist agenda that captures more people in their entitlement net.
If they don’t change, the party will fade away in lieu of a 3rd, more moderate, representative party.
But for now, don’t align them with anything having to do with Democracy.
Mark Caserta is a resident of Wayne County, WV. and has been a conservative columnist for 25 years.
While many so-called politicians have forgotten their primary duty of representation, the Democrat Party has one foot in the grave and the other on thin ice when it comes to maintaining their legitimacy.
It is unfathomable that in our Republic form of government, (in which citizens vote for individuals whose job is solely to represent their constituents in government) the so-called “representatives” would choose to represent the 20 percent “radical” ideology of an issue rather than the clear majority of voters!
These are the current “hills” Democrats have been willing to die on! It is quite remarkable when you tally all of the lunacy!
Democrats support open borders – period. Come one, come all. Just be sure you vote for the hand that feeds you with taxpayer dollars. They are willing to provide housing, healthcare and all the amenities for anyone willing to come to the U.S. and help keep them in power.
Democrats are against requiring any proof of citizenship prior to being allowed to vote. Why? The answer, once again, can only be they want illegals to be complicit in their fight to stay in power.
Democrats fight for the rights of illegal aliens, to include terrorist groups like MS-13 and Tren de Aragua while absolutely ignoring the rights of American citizens, such as Rachael Morin, Laken Riley, Jocelyn Nungaray, each horrifically murdered by illegals in our country. Liberal Democrats refuse to even mention their names in the conversation.
Democrats are against the deportation of criminal illegal aliens and have even traveled to El Salvador in an attempt to initiate the return of one such confirmed member of a terrorist organization. They spend their time and your money attempting to stop President Trump from doing what he promised he would do, at the risk of American lives and safety. Liberal judges have even gone as far as order plane load of illegals returned to our country!
Democrats are against lowering your taxes. In fact, they want to raise your taxes! This is particularly egregious considering the amount of waste, fraud and abuse DOGE uncovered.
Democrats are against the aforementioned, Department of Government Efficiency! Why? Clearly, it’s because they were being shown and feckless, inefficient boobs who were more focused on becoming millionaires on your dime than they were making American great!
Democrats do not believe there are only two genders, male and female. It’s the epitome of hypocrisy that the very individuals who cling dearly to the “science of climate change” totally ignore it when it comes to biological gender.
Democrats believe in allowing some young people to be convinced they require a “gender reassignment” in order to be content and live life happily. Obviously, God made a mistake, but with certain man-made medications, God’s error can be corrected. Oh, and by the way, your parents do not need to know!
Democrats support allowing men, who identify as women, to compete in women’s sports. It’s hard to believe we are even having this conversation, but these are the same “liberal loons” who support a woman’s right to an abortion but ignore their right to compete safely and fairly in sports. What happens when a male weightlifter says he now identifies as a woman and competes in female powerlifting events? How ludicrous is that?
Democrats believe a baby in the womb does not represent “life” until it is birthed and fight for abortion on demand during any stage of the pregnancy. Even then, some liberals want to legalize post-birth abortion simply on the grounds of mother’s rights. These are the same morons who would claim we found life on Mars if a microbe was located. Common sense is not permitted in the Democrat Party.
One cannot help but wonder about the legitimacy of the Democrat Party! Who are these people? Who do they feel they represent? Liberal Democrats are willingly making our nation’s system of checks and balances invalid, due to their ignorance. They are out of ideas and out of the will of most Americans.
If the Democrat Party does not begin representing the people who elected them, they will disappear, and a third party will emerge. And if they cannot abide by the Constitution and do their jobs – good riddance!
The job of an elected representative in our Republic, is to represent the people who elected them – period. May we all be reminded that knowledge, in itself, is not power. But the ability to use that knowledge on behalf of the people is the power voters expect politicians to usurp.
Does representation even concern them in pursuit of their radical ideology?
Americans need to begin asking themselves a particularly important question crucial to the future of our country.
Given that we live in a Republic in which we elect officials to represent and defend Democracy on behalf of their constituents…just who exactly do Democrats currently represent in today’s political theater?
In the past 3 decades, based on consistency in behavior and actions, Democrats have been pretty predictable in plethora of issues. While conservatives disagree commensurate to the progressive passion for advancing their liberal agenda, most agree that there has been a fair amount of balance in representation and ideology of the American people.
We know Democrats embrace the US Constitution when it aligns with their agenda, seeking to protect the free speech rights of everyone except Christians and conservatives. Conservative Republicans support free speech for all.
We know Democrats are pro-abortion and supportive of murdering the unborn, under the guise of women’s rights. Conservative Republicans are pro-life.
We know Democrats are anti-second amendment and would take your guns away in a heartbeat. Conservative Republicans are pro-second amendment.
We know Democrats support illegal migration and view it as building a potential voter base they can capture in their entitlement net. Conservative Republicans support legal immigration.
We know Democrats have historically seen the world through a liberal lense and have been willing to build a base on that progressive platform and represent others aligning with that ideology.
But what has happened to drive these lost souls into literally hating everything our founding fathers and God intended for our great nation?Who do they feel they represent? Are they even listening to their constituents?Do they even care, anymore?
The only groups or individuals progressive Democrats seem to represent are those who thoroughly despise our nation and seek its demise!
As aforementioned, billions of dollars have been spent to provide comfort, aid and indeed, access for anyone attempting to come to the United States illegally, without regard to their status or intent. They have literally placed the needs of illegal aliens above the needs of US citizens and created sanctuary cities designed to harbor, protect and feed them with your tax dollars – not your consent!
Anyone with a dissenting opinion is labeled some sort of “phobic.”
Multiple polls indicate the majority of Americas are against illegal immigration, especially those readily impacted by their presence, as in healthcare costs, housing availability and jobs.
Democrats openly protect and advocate for demonstrations promoting violence and even death for Israel. The antisemitism is blatant! Consider the recent demonstrations at Columbia University where a graduate student Mahmoud Khalil was arrested.
Columbia University graduate student Mahmoud Khalil was recently arrested for helping orchestrate disruptive demonstrations on a campus receiving $4 million a year in subsidies (your tax dollars) from the US government.
The Baltimore Sun just ran a piece entitled, “Democrats, activists outraged by arrest of Columbia demonstrator allegedly ‘aligned to Hamas’”. Other news agencies support this information in similar reports.
Apparently, Democrats consider this “free speech” rather than “hate speech”. It’s the epitome of hypocrisy they would even attempt to label President Trump or Elon Musk as “Hitler” since they are the ones exhibiting the behaviors and attitudes of Nazi Germany against Israelis.
Most Americans clearly support Israel as our long-time ally. We have been blessed as a nation because we bless Israel. Genesis 12:3. Israel is our sister nation, and we have long supported the Israeli people.
Per multiple reports, most Americans wants to see the US government reduce its wasteful spending of your tax dollars. The taxpayer return on the investment simply has not been there and we are just now beginning to find out why! Under normal circumstances the recent revelations of how your money has been spent would create outrage on both sides of the “so called” political aisle.
But regardless of the position of most Americans, Democrats are openly protesting and flailing around using the foulest language rebuking President Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) for identifying and trimming government waste, fraud and abuse.
Even recent presidents such as Joe Biden, Barack Hussein Obama and Bill Clinton advocated for the reduction of government waste. They just did not do anything about it.
What American would not want their tax dollars spent wisely and on their behalf?
Is there something liberal Democrats are trying to hide? I am willing to bet there absolutely is!
I could go on and on with examples of Democrats willing to die on the wrong side of the hill for arguments that simply do not represent most Americans.
Only the most radical (and frankly weird) liberals are willing to side with the Democrat Party. And they are clearly in the insignificant minority. (Thank God)
If the Democrat Party continues down this road, not only will they never win another election, but we may also see a rise in an alternative, more representative party. I can think of no other time when a third party stood a better chance of winning an election than now.
Democrats are simply taking themselves out of the game, content to sit on the sidelines yelling and screaming in hatred of the opposing team and never having a game plan of their own. Hate is their only weapon.
No doubt, most Americans see this clearly. One can only hope that rather than allow this to divide our country, true patriots will see it as an opportunity to return our nation to greatness.
Entrance of light always removes darkness – even in politics.
Could there be something to hide from the American people?
Regarding the outrage by liberal Democrats over the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) identifying and halting insane government use of our hard-earned tax dollars.
Are you kidding me?
It is completely befuddling to me how anyone can place their hatred of a man’s personality over the future of our nation and their family!
Are you seriously willing to defend your tax dollars being used for the following? This is real, validated, ludicrous spending of your tax dollars by the (now defunct) U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID).
$1.5 million to advance Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) in Serbia’s workplaces.
Most people can’t even find Serbia on a map. Do you really want to pay for the advancement of DEI in their country?
$70,000 for a production of a DEI musical in Ireland.
Now, I appreciate the Arts as much as anyone, but $70,000 could nearly pay off my mortgage!
$47,000 for a transgender opera in Colombia.
You probably couldn’t pay me $47,000 to “attend” a transgender opera in Columbia! I certainly don’t want to pay for it!
$32,000 for a transgender comic book in Peru.
I just don’t have the words for this one. Maybe it’s Dick Tracy in drag? Who knows…
These insane expenditures were identified by President Trump’s DOGE team led by Elon Musk. And this is just the tip of the iceberg!
Do not forget – IT’S YOUR MONEY!!
Additionally, this is the most transparent administration in my lifetime. All cuts of waste, fraud and abuse can be found on the DOGE Offical Webite where they detail cuts and expenditures and even offer receipts to validate their findings!
President Trump’s goal is not to hurt the American people. He’s working for you!
The US Government has simply failed us. They’ve proven they are completely unable and unwilling to cut spending. While we sit around the dinner table trimming back and planning our finances, Congress spends your money with complete oblivion as to how it impacts the average American and their family.
And the outrage is mind boggling. Many of the very same hypocritical, liberal Democrat politicians making fools of themselves over Trump’s noble efforts to bring efficiency back to government have openly stated in the past that we must trim government spending.
Who doesn’t agree government spending has been out of control for decades? Our nation is $32 trillion dollars in debt! Utter collapse is inevitable if we don’t stop the spending insanity!
It isn’t about the process – it’s about hating President Trump! Democrats have proven they are willing to compromise you, your family and, indeed, our nation to see Trump fail.
That, my friend, is a symptom of a failing Republic and must be stopped. We hired these individuals to represent us. But it doesn’t matter what our president does or how much it benefits you! Liberal Democrats will oppose it, regardless of your wishes! That’s not representation.
My challenge to patriots is to see beyond the messenger! Focus on the message!
Make America great again by returning control to the people. We finally have a president ready, willing and able to fight for the American people. At least we can do it be open-minded to the option of winning!
But make no mistake, “We the People” have to be serious and do our part to take back America from liberal Democrats, who frankly, have turned their backs on their country and fellow citizens.
Don’t be fooled by the liberal mainstream media, either. They are complicit in the process.
Get engaged, study the issues and pray for our president and our nation.
The Democrat party has abdicated common sense along with their responsibility to represent and protect their constituents and the American people.
I would describe it as intellectual dishonesty, but that would require a semblance of intelligence displayed by the left.
The recent insertion of 4-letter expletives by Democrat leaders in their protests against our president confirms their vocabulary is diminishing commensurate to their brain activity.
I would liken their political methodology and willingness to die on the liberal hill of ultra-left issues to “kamikaze” tactics. Representation and loyalty to the founding principles of our Republic aren’t even a consideration!
Frankly, it’s as though they’ve given up promise of ever winning another election! They seem content to flail about wildly like an inflatable wacky, waving tube man firing insults at Donald Trump while drawing as much attention to themselves as possible.
It’s sad Democrats can’t even feel humiliation anymore. If a leader doesn’t emerge soon to provide a course correction, they’ll never win another election.
No doubt, Trump/Musk Derangement Syndrome and the “stupefaction” that Donald Trump not only survived their relentless, shameless attacks, but was re-elected to the presidency has stripped them of the capacity to conjure up a rational thought.
They seem committed to taking the wrong side of every single argument on even the most obvious issues where the benefit of Americans is concerned.
On the issue of allowing men to participate in women’s sports, every single Democrat US senator recently voted against a bill protecting the dignity, integrity and safety of female athletes by banning men from competing in women’s sports.
The fact this is even up for debate is a prime example of the progressive movement agenda in America. They’ve had entirely too much success due to our apathy and unwillingness to engage to protect Biblical values.
Democrats are clearly supportive of women forced to being exposed to male genitalia in locker rooms.
Democrats are aligned with males, unable to successfully compete as men in men’s sports, redefining themselves as females so they can win a trophy and block a deserving young lady from fulfilling her dream.
Democrats obviously are fine with permitting a stronger male athlete to compete physically with a female, potentially risking physical or emotional harm to the female athlete.
Regarding your tax dollars, Democrats are protecting the obvious waste, fraud and abuse of your hard-earned money that is being exposed daily by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
I find it insulting, that year after year, Democrats predictably want to raise our taxes simply to bank roll their greed and malfeasance of duty, all the time aware of the fact that the money you need to feed your family or pay your bills is being wasted or stolen.
One can’t help but wonder what and who will be exposed for being a complicit participant in much of this waste and fraud.
Democrats are proving to the American people that a “vote” to keep them in power is worth far more than your health, safety and welfare by fighting against President Trump’s pledge to shut down illegal border crossings.
They would much rather millions of illegal migrants, some of whom are criminals of the highest order, be allowed to cross our border, unfettered. The only desired return on their investment is to have those illegals vote for the hands that feed them, house them, school them and provide them healthcare, at the expense of the American people.
The bottom line is the Democrat party hates President Donald J. Trump far more than they love our country or our citizens. They’re exposed by their offenses, and we should all take note.
Throughout it all, the re-election of Donald Trump has allowed the American people to learn one thing in which liberal Democrats amazingly excel.
Here is what really happened on Friday with the Trump, Vance spat with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Under no circumstances would a VP sitting next to the most powerful man in the world, be empowered to derail a $500 Billion deal in front of the world, without prior discussion with President Trump – period.
President Trump knew that Zelensky wanted to get a commitment from the U.S. for ongoing security following the deal of a ceasefire from prior conversations. He also knew that Zelensky was going to mandate that request as part of the rare earth deal in front of the media.
President Trump is a deal maker. He does deals, and he is the very best. Right now his job is to make deals for America.
President Trump wants Europe to own the security of Ukraine. It’s in their back yard and best jnterest.
He doesn’t want America to be the “world police”, especially an ocean away!
The president’s rare earth mineral deal is designed to reimburse the U.S. for our financial support as well as establish a visible partnership with Ukraine for the world to see – one which will benefit the U.S. for years to come.
He will not agree to commit US security support for Ukraine, for years to come, as part of the deal, hence the negotiation tactic employed on Friday.
So, in front of the world, as as part of a tactic to negotiate peace, Zelensky was put on his heels and any perceived negotiating power revoked. His own people and other nations are now pressuring him to make peace with President Trump.
It was agreed that when the opportunity presented itself, the Trump/Vance team would kick in!
Of course, President Trump will make him sweat a while to soften him even further. He knows the right time to reengage.
And now, our president is back in the driver’s seat. He will achieve an end to the war. He will complete the rare earth deal. And Europe will pick up securing Ukraine in the future.
All this will happen very soon.
Additionally, Russia and the world will think twice about trying to outmaneuver our president.
