Jeff Bust’s recent op-ed column about “deplorables” sums up the opinion of the silent majority. People are demonstrating over everything and when questioned, many don’t know what they are demonstrating about and many are not even from the area. The same few show up on TV (paid?) rioting. Why aren’t they arrested, jailed and made to make restitution for their damages? Don’t any of these people work? Don’t the younger ones have school?
President Trump’s stance on immigrants coming from countries that can’t be vetted should be applauded, as was done when Bill Clinton made his speech to Congress in 1995. 109 people coming from the seven countries Obama had declared were suspect were detained, bringing hordes of demonstrators that disrupted thousands of travelers. News media were quick to show teary-eyed reunions. What does a terrorist look like? Do protestors or the media have access to classified information on anyone entering America?
Trump was never my choice, but after a month in office and Congress holding up his cabinet nominees, he isn’t being given a chance. Democrats declared they will oppose anything Trump tries to do and Republicans will match this with arrogance. Is this what they are elected to do? America has so many problems and we have a useless Congress squabbling among themselves like children.
The demonstrators who kept Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos from entering a school in D.C. didn’t seem to know how poorly their schools are doing. When something isn’t working, it’s time to try different ideas.
Our enemies are watching! Isn’t it time we become Americans instead of Democrats, Republicans, demonstrators and naysayers?
