On today’s Morning Joe, Donny Deutsch attempted to recast Donald Trump’s slogan, “Make America Great Again,” as an unalloyed appeal to racism. During a segment focusing on Laura Ingraham’s remarks on immigration from earlier this week. Deutsch said:
“Donald Trump, once and for all, we need to just really look at what his slogan, Make America Great Again, means. We know what it means. We know what it meant. Make America White Again. And that’s what that slogan always was.”
A bit earlier, Mika Brzezinski said she was brought to tears watching the clip of President Reagan’s final speech as president, in which he said that, in contrast with immigrants to other countries, “anyone from any corner of the Earth can come to live in America and become an American.”
Along similar lines, Joe Scarborough quoted former CIA Director Michael Hayden, who said: “You read the document, you understand the document, you pledge allegiance to the document, and we shake your hand, and you are every bit as much of an American as me and other people who have been here for 400 years.”
Both Reagan’s and Hayden’s remarks remain true. But the problem is people immigrating to the United States who do not wish to become Americans, and who neither understand nor pledge allegiance to our Constitution.
How can you expect immigrants to understand and pledge allegiance to the Constitution when Dem leaders, and the judges they appoint, ignore rights created by it and create rights not found in it?
Consider the immigration story of your own family. If it’s like mine and that of millions of other Americans, our ancestors who immigrated during the 19th and 20th centuries desperately wanted to become real Americans, and wanted to succeed, and see their children succeed, through hard work, self-reliance, and belief in the American dream.
Compare and contrast with too many immigrants of today, who condemn America while wishing to enjoy all that it offers. Who march through the streets displaying flags of their former homes and claiming America stole their lands. Who reject E Pluribus Unum in favor of multiculturalism.
That’s not what Reagan or Hayden had in mind, but to an unfortunate extent, it is the reality of immigration today.
How original...
Donny Deutsch recasts MAGA as an appeal to racism.
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
Good point.
In contrast with my normal style, I’ve included the entire text of the blog item here, because, frankly, I think it’s important and want to be sure that FReepers will have the chance to see it without having to go to the original FinkelBlog item.
effing idiot. Deutch’s bulb burns dimly.
Even if it’s true, so what?
Deutsch is free to leave if he doesn’t like us.
Donny Douche is the racist.
Dims loosing.........again. LOL.
Trump winning.
No it doesn’t, but you leftist wackos are determined to eliminate Whites from this country. Admit it, you bastards!
Imagine the Douche’s reaction in 2020, when the slogan will be “Keep America Great.”
Some immigrated just in time to enter “The Greatest Generation”. (Saving Western Civilization and The Republic).
I heard this exact line from a New York suburban woman two and a half years a go during the campaign. She said it in front of the extended family at a family party with all her college aged kids there. Announcing it. I figured she was taking their line from the professors that were filling their minds full of crap. Also she’s got CNN on in every room in the house the way our grandparents would have a religious item in every room.
You can’t argue with that kind of emotional energy in a mob.
At the time I thought eh she’ll come around. She later admitted to NOT voting for hillary.
The Trump INS needs to survey the third world shitholes with this question:
If transportation was not a problem, would you like to emigrate to the US?
Then, when 4 billion people respond in the affirmative, the talking point is created. How many of these 4 billion people do the Dems want to admit into the US and where will they come from?
donny really is a douche
I guess the Duesche would prefer to be a resident of Zimbabwe or South Africa.
Why does Donny Deutsch hate being white?
He should get a melanin injection.
Or just off himself.
somebody lose a contact lens?
