Thursday marked the 80th anniversary of D-Day, commemorating the pivotal invasion of France that helped liberate Europe from Adolf Hitler’s control.
For Americans, it is a day to honor those who left their families and crossed an ocean to sacrifice everything for a just cause. For Hillary Clinton, however, it appears to be an opportunity to demonstrate her reprehensible nature.
Clinton restricted replies to her post, and it’s clear why. Had she not, she would have faced significant backlash. However, she can’t silence RedState, and I have some strong opinions about this absurdity.
Let me make this clear for everyone: Donald Trump is not Hitler. He is not a “threat to democracy.” Regardless of who wins in November, the American government will continue to function despite its flaws. There will be no civil war or total societal collapse. Trump will certainly not declare himself dictator for life and “destroy democracy,” as Clinton is suggesting.
Making such a comparison is vile and grotesque. It diminishes the sacrifices of those who died on the beaches of Normandy and in the subsequent battles to secure key objectives. It implies that Clinton and other Democrats are their equivalent, and that voting against Trump is an act of “protecting democracy” on par with those who faced machine gun fire, crawled through barbed wire, and cleared bunkers in brutal close combat.
These delusions of grandeur are both astonishing and pathetic. This is what happens when individuals, lacking religion and purpose, try to fill their emptiness with politics. No, you are not like D-Day veterans just because you voted against the “bad orange man.” Suggesting such a thing is insane. The fact that I even need to say this is a sad indication of how far the Democratic Party has fallen.
All the hysterical rhetoric about Trump and “democracy” is the work of cynical partisans trying to manipulate low-IQ voters. They know they can’t win on policy alone.
