Behold: A Celebrity Patriots Can Admire
American Thinker ^ | January 28, 2017 | Elise Cooper

Posted on 01/28/2017 5:49:19 AM PST by Kaslin

Professors, political commentators, celebrities, and even some in the mainstream media have engaged in rhetoric to denounce Donald Trump. It appeared that Lady Gaga sported an outfit resembling a Nazi uniform at Hillary Clinton's final rally, and then there was Madonna at the women's march in Washington, D.C., who told the crowd that she had "thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House." In addition, Hollywood stars and those in the press have gone over the line by describing Trump and his administration as "Hitlerian."

This comparison is ridiculous, considering that Trump's son-in-law and daughter are Orthodox Jews, and giving an invocation at the inauguration was Rabbi Marvin Hier, the dean of The Simon Wiesenthal Center, which confronts anti-Semitism. People should not forget that during Hitler's regime, there were political opponents thrown into prison, with many executed; the mass slaughter of Jews and gays along with other ethnicities; Russian prisoners of war killed; forced labor camps; the Nuremberg laws of 1935; children experimented on; and the Final Solution of the Jews. By comparing Trump to Hitler people are trivializing the Holocaust's victims.

Celebrities such as Madonna, Lady Gaga, and Meryl Streep are described as brave, a true inspiration, and heroes. But what have they really done besides using hyperbolic language? Have they fought for human rights around the globe? In many Middle Eastern countries such as Iran and Iraq, women are used as "slave girls," beaten, abused, and executed. In Nigeria, the Boko Haram terrorist network kidnapped two hundred schoolgirls only because they were Christians. In Afghanistan, acid was thrown in the faces of three teenage girls just because they wanted to attend school, while in Syria ISIS is executing homosexuals. Yet the celebrities are quiet. They do not know what the word courageous means.

Maybe I missed it, but in the articles I’ve read about Madonna’s madness, they never mention that she is reading her spew, so it’s not like she just got carried away and said that stupid stuff, it was all planned.

Those liberal garbage females will NEVER speak up for the atrocities of Muslim men against men, women and children who disagree with them. They show their true colors and approve of those actions and would like to see Americans be subject to radical islam.

All of them are simply Faces. Memes, distractions and attempts at mind control of the populace performed by its victims. They’ve sold their souls. I doubt the price was worth it.

Thanks to YouTube, I no longer have to endure three hours of superbowl for one new Jeep ad. This was last year’s, celebrating the 75th anniversary of the Jeep:

Trumps critics are actively working to impeach him anyway they can; they are literally plotting to get rid of the POTUS. Isn’t that treason, sedition and subversive activities and against the LAW?

I am still very afraid for Trump; Liberals have a CULT mentality and currently have NO leader. That is very dangerous; they are lost, afraid and they feel their only solution to restore their “cult”, is to get rid of him.

And he is also ending the gravy train for many powerful people, who have been riding that train for YEARS.

Very scary times....

The obvious problem with any form of government - ‘ism, ie; globalism, communism, socialism, fascism, capitalism, religionism or piss-ism and vinegar-ism, whatever.

They all make the assumption, that for some reason someone is going to get up off their ass and do something, that maybe we all can get a piece of, (obviously problematic outcome here).

See, if everything is not already there, no -ism works. All any -ism means is that somebody is going to do and somebody is going to leech. In biology it is called ‘commensalism’, and typically involves two species, however with humans I believe our species is able to behave parasitically as well. Perhaps this is why our cultures have a warped fascination with vampires and celebrities. Glorified mosquitoes, spreading disease. I digress.

Many in our society have engaged in sophistry over the years, and as in the times of Socrates, you will find the sophists generally in the following ‘halls’; that of Academia, that of Media/Politics/Government and obviously the halls of the ‘Elitist’, because that is where the money, the fame/glory, and the power, is.

Consider it or not, (I do not concern myself with your belief structure) there are and I have met them, humans who believe themselves to be far above the rest, that we others are nothing more than meatsacks; minor at best, pieces to be moved around upon the board. Oh and allow me to provide another tidbit of information; most of these individuals are in one or more ways, unstable. The human mind is a ‘true’ place of power, the most destructive place there is. To make this little revelation worse, these dumb-asses are competing with each other, jockeying for position; as the master of depravity and lunacy.

What is it, with the desire to be the biggest turd (politician) on sh*t island (DC)?

To me there is only one kind of -ism worth anything and that is individualism. The most efficient and correct me I can be, self sufficient/least dependent is actually better for the rest of the world.

“The REAL Americans spoke. On the day that counted”

Completely agree, and we need to keep on speaking loudly. All the world only hears the media and the protesters for the last couple weeks. Of course, they appear like maniacs, but it’s all everyone hears.

The Presidency has become a Vastly more powerful position than the founding fathers intended.

They can plot and plan and scheme and it will all lead nowhere.

I am happy about it now but what about when a dem takes the oval office some day in the future?

Maybe it’s my NYC attitude but I couldn’t give a #### what they hear or what they think.

Trump’s president for the next 1400 days and there’s not a damn thing anyone can do about it.

They can rally and protest and riot and cry and scream and plot impeachment etc. They can try and turn world opinion against him but his actions have already won many countries’ fondness of him.

To hell with them all. Let them yell till they can’t speak anymore.

BTW, you made a great point. They sound like maniacs.

“To hell with them all. Let them yell till they can’t speak anymore.”

Agreed. I’m personally tiring of the “vocal minority” that makes the headlines every day. The administration and the the world needs to hear from our “silent majority” more than just at the polls. They need to know in certain terms we’re still here. I want them forced to acknowledge that they are goners in 2018!
