The left is using every unsavory scheme devised to defeat President Trump from being re-elected.

One of the things we find most disgusting is a daily postcard (unsigned and with no return address) with a Los Angeles postmark running down the president and other conservative candidates.

These cowardly items go into the trash immediately. It’s obvious the senders don’t want to hear another side to their opinions.

The left is working feverishly to destroy America’s foundation and its history with the goal of turning the nation into a socialist dictatorship.

We have to wonder, what is it about personal freedom and opportunity these people hate so?

They likely think that only the ordinary citizen – unlike themselves – will lose the freedoms guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution. But if they are successful, they’re probably in for a big surprise.

The Useful Idiots being used by elitists in their efforts to overturn the fairest government ever devised would undoubtedly discover they also are members of the hoi poloi (the common people) with the rest of us, ready to enjoy exorbitant tax rates (if they can find a job), loss of property rights, confiscation of savings, loss of dependable medical care and other advantages they won’t miss until they’re gone.

It is no secret any longer that Black Lives Matter has been taken over by Marxists.

Columnist Derek Hunter writes in a piece headlined “Woke vs. Racist: What’s the Difference?” on Townhall.

“There’s a great comedy video that went viral this week pointing out the similarities between the woke set and racists. Like all good comedy, it’s funny because it’s true. If you watch any of these Black Lives Matter “protests” you notice one big thing: they’re mostly young white people. Yes, the leaders of the organization ‘Black Lives Matter’ are black, they’re also rich, racist Marxists busy counting piles of money, but the people attacking police officers are mostly white. Listening to the rioters, pundits, politicians, and reporters you notice something odd: they all seem to believe black people are incapable of succeeding without their help. This used to be called the ‘white savior complex,’ now it’s simply called ‘progressive.’”

The author, Hunter, is the host of a free daily podcast, host of a daily radio show on WCBM in Maryland, and author of the book, Outrage, INC., which exposes how liberals use fear and hatred to manipulate the masses.

If we were black, we think we’d be outraged at the aspersions against our abilities as streamed daily from leftist sources.

Read the column at the right hand side of this page for other thoughts on the results if the left is successful in defeating President Trump on Nov. 3.

The left continues to drop in the word Klan in its propaganda intended to cause black people to vote for the Democrat Biden in the presidential election.

The left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center estimates there were between 5,000-8,000 members of the KKK in 2016, down from about 4 million a century earlier. That’s a huge drop – to go from millions to a rounding error smaller than the average attendance of a WNBA game as the population tripled should be cause for celebration, Hunter says. But leftists will tell you racists are everywhere and running the show.

The problem the left has with its propaganda is that President Trump has done more to allow blacks (and others) to rise on their own with tax cuts and free enterprise initiatives than all the government programs together.

Blacks and other minorities, aren’t blind to this fact.

And that gives confidence to conservatives that President Trump’s pledge will prove true: “The United States will not become a socialist country on my watch.”

Columnist Dennis Prager, a Jew, takes issue with the left’s portrayal of blacks as dehumanized.

He writes:

“If you take black and white left-wing rhetoric seriously, blacks are not human beings like members of other races. They are first and foremost black; they are human beings defined before anything else by their color -- not their humanity, their personality, their character, their mind or their heart. So much so that, according to white and black leftists, if you dissent from this racist view, you are now labeled racist.

“The idiocy and inhumanity (literally) of this, the “progressive” view of black people, is easily demonstrated. Do any blacks see themselves first as black? When a black man, let’s call him James, looks into the mirror, does he first see a black person, or does he see James? When a white woman, let’s call her Karen (I’m playing with the left here), looks into the mirror, does she first see a white person, or does she see Karen? Does any human being first see his or her color?

Of course not. Yet, we are supposed to believe that the most important thing about a black individual is that he or she is black. And if we do not honor that fact – if we aim to be “colorblind” – then we are labeled racist.”

Observing that both the left and white supremacists seeing blacks as inherently different than others is sorry thinking. He calls it “pablum.”

He cites why people come together despite different life experiences, this way:

“No one can see the world through another’s eyes. No one can fully understand what it is like to be any other human being. Do all whites understand how other whites see the world? One of the ongoing jokes in the public dialogues I have with Adam Carolla around the country is how much we think alike despite the fact that our backgrounds could hardly be more different.

“Other than being white and male, we have essentially nothing in common. He is an atheist; I am a religious believer. He is Italian; I’m a Jew. He grew up poor and on food stamps in Los Angeles; I grew up in a solid middle-class home in Brooklyn. He had little formal education and never went to college; I grew up in a house of intellectuals and went to an Ivy League graduate school. Even though I cannot “relate” to his experience or he to mine, we are nevertheless very close because, in addition to that intangible thing that creates friendships, we have the same values.”

Later he adds:

“On the other hand, I am a Jew, and George Soros is a Jew. Other than the same ethnic ancestry, we have absolutely nothing in common. I have far more in common with the black conservative intellectual Larry Elder. The notion that race or ethnicity bonds people is both stupid and racist.

The prominent black conservative John McWhorter, a Columbia professor, just wrote a review of “White Fragility,” the book (by Robin DiAngelo) the left most frequently recommends explaining America’s alleged systemic racism. The title? “The Dehumanizing Condescension of ‘White Fragility.’”

McWhorter writes:

“One of America’s favorite advice books of the moment is actually a racist tract.”

“The book diminishes Black people in the name of dignifying us.”

(I suspect it was The Atlantic’s choice to capitalize “black”; the syndicators of my own column once changed “black” to “Black” because they follow the Associated Press’ rules for English, Prager wrote.)

‘White Fragility’ is the prayer book for what can only be described as a cult.’

“A corollary question is why Black people need to be treated the way DiAngelo assumes we do. The very assumption is deeply condescending to all proud Black people.”

“Few books about race have more openly infantilized Black people than this supposedly authoritative tome. Or simply dehumanized us.”

“Her answer to white fragility, in other words, entails an elaborate and pitilessly dehumanizing condescension toward Black people. The sad truth is that anyone falling under the sway of this blinkered, self-satisfied, punitive stunt of a primer has been taught, by a well-intentioned but tragically misguided pastor, how to be racist in a whole new way.”

Prager continuing:

“McWhorter understands that to see blacks the way the white and black left want people to see them is to dehumanize blacks. If blacks are black before they are human -- if no nonblacks can relate to blacks, disagree with blacks or want to see past color to the person’s heart -- black-nonblack relations will have been set back a half-century.

“Incredibly, beginning this coming year, thanks to progressive teachers, there will be mandatory reading of racist tracts like “White Fragility” to dehumanize blacks. That any black would see this as progress is worthy of tears.”
