I find it ironic that the liberal media are calling Trump a racist for raising the idea of a temporary ban on Muslims traveling to the U.S. until more stringent safety measures can be taken to protect our citizens. Yet the House recently passed a bill, which was sent to the president, to restrict the admission of Iraqi and Syrian refugees (who are primarily Muslims) to America by requiring extra security procedures. This was met by silence from this same liberal media.
And in the letter, “Denouncement long overdue,” the writer states, “The American people need to come to terms with this man’s proclamations (Trump). The cheering throngs who roar their approval at this jingoistic insanity need to regroup both intellectually and morally and take a sobering look at the current state of American politics.” Well, the American people have sobered up and have taken a hard look at the past seven years of the state of American politics and have found it very disturbing indeed, and that is why they are demanding change. Personally, it can’t come soon enough!
