Ever notice that the only response from the Left, ESPN, the media, and the fools who parrot their talking points is always the same?
Rather than engage an issue by presenting an alternative plan, that is perhaps less bigoted and racist but just as effective at accomplishing whatever goal the plan needs to accomplish, they feel they can end the discussion simply by throwing out the tried-and-true claim of ignorance and racism? It's awesome.
Take the Syrian refugee crisis and immigration from predominantly Muslim countries. This is a tough issue. Trump's plan on this wasn't a great one. It wasn't well thought out, it certainly wasn't well articulated. It was packaged, perhaps accurately, as "Ban all Muslims."
It should be a pretty simple task for a seasoned politician like Hillary to deconstruct the "Ban Muslims" immigration plan, offer a palatable alternative, and then re-emphasize that the "Ban Muslims" plan is racist. But Hillary and the Left could never do it! Incredible. What was Hillary's alternative plan on this issue? Serious question. What was it? I don't doubt that if you scour the depths of her campaign website, there would be a bullet point outlining her position on this issue. But did she ever campaign on it? Did it ever come up in any of the debates? I watched every single debate, and I'll tell you exactly how it came up. Their plan was, as articulated, verbatim, by Tim Kaine in the VP Debate "If they're dangerous, we don't let them in." That was the plan that they campaigned on. "If they're dangerous, we don't let them in." That's not an immigration plan you fuggin dildo. Are they just going to check the "Yes, I'm Dangerous" box on the immigration form?
I truly believe that Hillary never campaigned on actual, less-RACIST alternative plans on tough issues because she never wanted to cede the moral highground. They wanted so badly to simply dismiss Trump's plan as facially racist, that in their minds, they could not risk offering an alternative that could potentially also be accused of being racially insensitive. All Hillary had to do, instead of "Ban Muslims" was say that we are suspending the Syrian refugee program briefly. 12 months, 18 months, whatever. I think a lot of people who voted for Trump because of this issue could have supported such a position, had Hillary offered it. Hell say something more specific than "If they're dangerous, we don't let them in." But she never did! She couldn't afford to!
She thought, just like ESPN thinks, and just like Popovich thinks, that all you have to do is scream racism. Scream bigotry. They keep doing it, even after the most surprising political campaign result in US History told them that no one is buying their ****!
There are a lot of tough issues out there. The economy. Immigration. National security. Hillary ran from every single one, and the Left continues to do so. People want ACTUAL proposals. And Tuesday's result proved unequivocally that if you can't offer a solution, John Q. Public will take the hit on being labeled a RACIST to vote for someone who is willing to stick his neck out enough to offer a solution.
