I do not at all agree with your premise “Like most Trump supporters, he hovers on the fringes of our society, at the opposite end of the spectrum of the do-gooders and eggheads that dominate our culture now.” This poor man has mental health issues and does not represent “most Trump supporters.” He is innocent of any violent crime and nee…
“Like most Trump supporters, he hovers on the fringes of our society, at the opposite end of the spectrum of the do-gooders and eggheads that dominate our culture now.” This poor man has mental health issues and does not represent “most Trump supporters.” He is innocent of any violent crime and needs his day in court but he doesn’t represent or even come close to the 80+ million who where disenfranchised in the last election. I appreciate your mea culpa and hope that you can continue to publish pieces that vindicate the innocent in the court of public opinion because God knows how corrupt the Federal judges are in the courts themselves. I would also like to ask if you could share with us the defining moment in your journey of self discovery when you realized you yourself were being lied to.
That "fringes of our society" line caught my eye as well. It seems at odds with the rest of this otherwise outstanding essay.
Or it could mean that the actual ideas and values of Trump's supporters -- reverence of individual liberty and autonomy, strong work ethic, at least some religious conviction, and above all love of one's country -- are now considered "fringe" while the opposite of those values represent mainstream America in the 21st Century?
The Left has repeatedly derided work ethic, for instance, as a "white man's value". Consider for a moment what that says about how the so-called enlightened classes view non-white work ethic.
Well put. I’m not sure what she meant entirely, and I’m not sure who she is referring to regarding “do-gooders and eggheads that dominate our culture now.” I honestly don’t believe that the ideas and values of “ Trump supporters” is a category unique to Trump or even fringe. I would argue that the MSM has convinced us that we are in the minority. If that were true we wouldn’t be seeing the mass exodus from blue states to red states
