We all know the holocaust killed millions and the New York Times acted at the time that it didn't happen. The Iranian government had tens of thousands of its people murdered because they wanted freedom, and President Trump got fed up with the oppression and the lies of the government and went to war with Iran even though Iran was at war with the U.S. since 1979 in one way or another. But the Democrats voted to take defeat out of the jaws of victory by voting to stop the war against the 21st century version of the Nazis. I thought Democrats hated Nazis. I guess I was wrong.
We all know other evils Democrats support. Many want to mutilate children and call it sexual affirmation. We've seen the results of some of these sexual affirmations which led to suicide at times and murder at other times. If a 17-year-old is considered too young to go to a bar to get a beer, why do so many Democrats think a 12 year-old is old enough to decide to be sexually altered?
I used to call the office of Ted Kennedy and discuss issues with his staff members. I asked why he didn't support school choice and the staffer said he supported public schools even though he sent his kids to private schools. I told the staffer Ted might have been afraid a kid from a poor black family might be smarter than his kids and he didn't want that.
Mayor Mamdani doesn't want gifted kids to go to schools that can let them be educated to their potential. Instead he wants kids to be inflicted with substandard education just like other Democrats. There are teachers and retired teachers that don't want parents to have school choice for fear the students will be better educated than those that graduate from public schools. Not taking advantage of potential geniuses and forcing them to become "normal" and not be able to help mankind become better is evil.
When I listen to many Democrats complain about Trump and what he is doing, I wonder if they live in this dimension. If he does what Putin wants him to do, why would he sanction Russia and go against the desires of Putin? During Trump's first term he had Russian soldiers killed in Syria. Maybe Putin also wanted them dead. What Trump is doing is making things worse for Putin and Che.
Trump wants to make Iranians free. Democrats don't. It's as if they supported Hitler.
