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.
And don’t get me started on the Mind of Steele!
A few weeks ago, we blogged about Morning Joe regular Jon Meacham boasting that “where I come from,” they don’t try to keep people out.
Turns out, he’s from one of the richest, whitest, enclaves in the country: Belle Glade, TN, and lives in a home he bought from a former Junior Leaguer!
Thanks! And PG, you been suffering along with me on this journey through the MSM muck for a long time!
Michal Moore who 'yearns' for the day whites will be a minority in the United States - PLACED HIS MANSION IN A 98% WHITE NEIGHBORHOOD.
I'm betting "Mr. Civil-Rights Donny Deutsch) lives in an all white building or neighborhood. And Donny's 'love of blacks' is based more on class warfare with middle class whites than anything to do with black citizens. Deutsch's type that WANTS to keep blacks on the Democrat Plantation... powerless and grateful.
Yep.
Handy spot for a CO2 BB pistol.
Gee, I didn't know that Hayden was that old. He must've seen a lot. I wonder what he thought of the Revolutionary War (and whether he sided with the British).
And keep your untaxed $ in our country instead of some
villa allegre south of the border
STFU, Donny the Doosh
