CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY NOVEMBER 10, 2020
IN A SPEECH TO THE NATION LAST SATURDAY NIGHT JOE BIDEN CALLED FOR HEALING AND UNITY. WHO COULD OPPOSE THAT? IT IS A WONDERFUL SENTIMENT, BUT WHAT DOES IT MEAN IN PRACTICE? FOR DEMOCRATS IT MEANS FOR TRUMP VOTERS TO AGREE WITH BIDEN’S POLICIES. IT NEVER WORKS IN REVERSE. THE HARD LEFT OF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY IS ALREADY PLOTTING REVENGE AGAINST THOSE WHO SUPPORTED AND CONTRIBUTED TO TRUMP’S CAMPAIGN. WILL THAT BRING UNITY AND HEALING?
A WALL STREET JOURNAL EDITORIAL NOTED “AFTER A CAMPAIGN IN WHICH HE CALLED THE INCUMBENT A RACIST AND BLAMED HIM FOR EVERY COVID-19 DEATH, WE’LL GIVE THE FORMER VICE PRESIDENT THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT THAT HE MEANS WHAT HE SAYS NOW.” I DON’T NECESSARILY AGREE BECAUSE BIDEN CHANGES POSITIONS AS OFTEN AS HE CHANGES CLOTHES. THE EDITORIAL CONTINUES: “(TRUMP’S) OPPONENTS HAVE SPENT FOUR YEARS WARNING THAT HE IS A WOULD-BE HITLER WHO WOULD STAGE AN AMERICAN REICHSTAG FIRE, OR SLOWLY EXTINGUISH POLITICAL FREEDOM. THE 25TH AMENDMENT WAS INVOKED AS A WAY TO REMOVE MR. TRUMP FROM OFFICE.”
THE ONLY REPUBLICANS DEMOCRATS LIKE ARE THOSE WHO LOSE ELECTIONS AND QUICKLY CONCEDE. I GIVE YOU BUSH 41, BOB DOLE AND MITT ROMNEY. THOSE WHO FIGHT ARE DEPLORED BY THE LEFT AND THEIR MEDIA ACOLYTES. I’M CAL THOMAS.
