It was only a matter of time before the left attacked patriotism as an offensive state of mind. This week, they’ve done just that.
Clinton Secretary of Labor Robert Reich attacked the idea of American exceptionalism as “exclusionary” and a result of Donald Trump’s promotion of America-first policies. Of course — if anything comes from Donald Trump it must be bad.
He goes beyond attacking the GOP nominee in his post in the SF Gate. He attacks all Americans who fear Islamic extremism. He denies the phenomenon of homegrown terror, despite the fact that the terrorists behind both the Orlando and San Bernardino attacks were all born in the United States. He even criticizes the “Republicans in Congress” who are unwilling to let individuals from Central America to flow across the nation’s borders.
His view of America isn’t patriotism, it is a dismantling of America as an identity.
Read part of his stunning op-ed on the next page:
All this is …is too tear down white men and what they bulit and in there place out one of color
Pay no mind to these fascists- If they cant defeat 30,000 Islamic State personell, they sure can’t beat us. Besides, they work FOR us .
Robert Reischhhhhhhh! Be quiet.
Alan Swafford No.
Conservatism has always been accepted in America but Communism was never accepted. Now you ultra liberals have invaded all corners of America, from the media, schools, colleges and government and want to radically transform the U.S. against the silent majority and against all that America stands for. You are traitors and don’t deserve the freedom and rights our forefathers fought and died to protect and preserve!
Or gunpowder!
Alan Swafford, you need some serious help!!
People are gonna need to start peeing in cups at a medical facility.
And we know none of these Dumocrats has any patriotism in them. This is why they are traitors, terrorists, and evil doers. We need Trump so bad!!
He IS a communist! Always was and always will be!
