    Well, what word would you use for silencing opposing views and using all the cancel culture techniques?

    Seriously, give me a better word for it. If we put ‘soft’ in front of totalitarianism would that make it less offensive? Soft totalitarianism, that’s it.

    And yes, at the time Jefferson wrote the declaration he was a slave holder. At that time, blacks were selling other blacks to white Europeans; the indigenous were engaged in any number of barbaric practices. Muslims were capturing slaves of every hue off of North Africa. Well, they still are if you count Libya. Let’s see, how far do you want to go with it?

    And are you suggesting the founders should have sent a note to the Brits asking if they would chill for a bit, while they fought a war amongst themselves over slavery?

    How do you suppose that would have turned out?

    There is some of that, but labeling every person who disagrees with you in that manner is divisive and stupid. That's your club. Enjoy your charter membership.

    Trump blew another opportunity.
    Trump knocked it out of the park last night. Best speech he's made yet!

    How were you before the TDS got too far advanced in your brain?

    How am I a racist?

    Was it liking all that talk about God and Country that makes me a racist?

    I don't like to make exceptions to rules. Rules are rules for a reason. If rules are wrong they need to be rewritten. If rules are right they need to be respected. If we do not respect rules then rules become meaningless.
    You do have a point. Quoted text should be accredited.
    I take it you mean the quoted text in the OP. Well, probably time has expired for it to be edited.
    So you could PM the dude and explain, or spam the report button.

    Trump's supporters care more about a few statues than about a pandemic, an economy that the CBO said may take a decade to fully bring back, and racial strife that is forcing most Americans with an ounce of introspection to consider who we really are.

    It's the most collective state of denial I think I've ever seen. That speech was unreal from a world leader whose country is suffering right now. It was an embarrassment.

    There could be no better place to celebrate America’s independence than beneath this magnificent, incredible majestic mountain and monument to the greatest Americans who have ever lived. Today we pay tribute to the exceptional lives and extraordinary legacies of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, and Teddy Roosevelt. I am here as your president to proclaim before the country and before the world, this monument will never be desecrated, these heroes will never be defamed, their legacy will never ever be destroyed, their achievements will never be forgotten, and Mount Rushmore will stand forever as an eternal tribute to our forefathers and to our freedom.

    We gather tonight to herald the most important day in the history of nations, July 4th, 1776. At those words, every American heart should swell with pride, every American family should cheer with delight, and every American patriot should be filled with joy because each of you lives in the most magnificent country in the history of the world and it will soon be greater than ever before.

    Our founders launched not only a revolution in government, but a revolution in the pursuit of justice, equality, liberty, and prosperity. No nation has done more to advance the human condition than the United States of America and no people have done more to promote human progress than the citizens of our great nation. It was all made possible by the courage of 56 patriots who gathered in Philadelphia 244 years ago and signed the Declaration of Independence. They enshrined a divine truth that changed the world forever when they said, “All men are created equal.” These immortal words set in motion the unstoppable march of freedom. Our founders boldly declared that we are all endowed with the same divine rights, given us by our Creator in Heaven, and that which God has given us, we will allow no one ever to take away ever.

    1776 represented the culmination of thousands of years of Western civilization and the triumph of not only spirit, but of wisdom, philosophy, and reason. And yet, as we meet here tonight, there is a growing danger that threatens every blessing our ancestors fought so hard for, struggled, they bled to secure. Our nation is witnessing a merciless campaign to wipe out our history, defame our heroes, erase our values, and indoctrinate our children. Angry mobs are trying to tear down statues of our founders, deface our most sacred memorials, and unleash a wave of violent crime in our cities. Many of these people have no idea why they’re doing this, but some know what they are doing. They think the American people are weak and soft and submissive, but no, the American people are strong and proud and they will not allow our country and all of its values, history, and culture to be taken from them.

    One of their political weapons is cancel culture, driving people from their jobs, shaming dissenters, and demanding total submission from anyone who disagrees. This is the very definition of totalitarianism, and it is completely alien to our culture and to our values and it has absolutely no place in the United States of America.

    This attack on our liberty, our magnificent liberty must be stopped and it will be stopped very quickly. We will expose this dangerous movement, protect our nation’s children from this radical assault, and preserve our beloved American way of life. In our schools, our newsrooms, even our corporate boardrooms, there is a new far-left fascism that demands absolute allegiance. If you do not speak its language, perform its rituals, recite its mantras, and follow its commandments, then you will be censored, banished, blacklisted, persecuted, and punished. It’s not going to happen to us.
    You voted for Trump because his message of racism and bigotry resonates with you.

    Boo!

    Can't remember where I've heard that before. Oh, yeah - every single Presidential race in my lifetime.

    He wasn’t talking about Biden or whoever: he was referring to the white/black thugs who are lawlessly destroying monuments that have nothing to do with the confederacy. And at least *appears* to have more to do with the founding of this country.

    It’s no coincidence he made the speech in front of Mount Rushmore.

    I think Democrats made a grave political mistake by not marginalizing these characters.

    Desperate Trump is counting on generating enough emotional ideological hype to carry him to victory in November.

    Every Dem has condemned the rioters and vandals, and the violence.

    You always think the Dems are making a "big mistake." Funny how while you say that, Biden's lead in the polls grows.
