View from a deplorable
A man was quoted as saying that “a critical mass of the American electorate lost its mind and soul on election day.” I submit this was truer eight years ago when Barack Obama was elected.
At that time, minorities became more important than the rest of America’s citizens. Democrats approved and promoted Obama’s agenda, demonstrating they are the ones who are truly insane. In addition, liberals also found a leader in Obama to carry the sword for them on abortion and LGBT rights. Seems to me they are the ones more likely to lose their souls.
The man further stated that, “madness swept across Middle America, trampling under reason and decency and any kind of moral or intellectual discernment.”
If liberal Democrats had intellectual discernment, morals and decency, they would insist on a balanced federal budget instead of attempting to create a socialist country. They would use birth control instead of having abortions and they would insist on legal immigration instead of open borders.
Label me as deplorable or an angry old white man. But, remember me. I am one of the 59 million Americans who decided the fate of the incredibly stupid, immoral and indecent Hillary Clinton.
