SE Cupp: How I felt watching Trump hug our flag (opinion) - CNN
I hope some folks on USMB find this as interesting as me. I think SE Cupps second to the last paragraph sums up succinctly what happens daily on USMB.
There are no "purity tests". The Democratic Party has become a well-defined, foreign-influenced entity diametrically opposed to the US Constitution, and with which there is no longer any common ground between it and actual Americans.
Compromise with them is ultimately capitulation. They need to be removed from political power.
When you make an enemy out of them like that you just did you contribute to the polarization. I’m not a fan of either party, but I also understand that there are millions of good hearted Americans who are free thinking members and not all are partisan hacks. There are diverse opinions in both parties. We need to stop polarizing and dividing by labeling everybody by the actions of a faction. It’s not honest or productive
Neither am I a fan of political parties, but since we have them, I will call them as I see them. Polarization is no concern of mine.
Diverse opinions are great. Opinionate all you like. But don't try to legislate nonsense that has a chilling effect upon personal freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution.
It is not acceptable, nor open to negotiation outside the process mandated by the document.
