Good example of a great moment.
His 1976 RNC speech was excellent.
Reagan made many whistle stops prior to the 1980 National Republican Convention.
The RINO’s wanted former Texas governor, John Connally, but Reagan held a lot more ground.
I think the thing that really stands out about that dialog between Reagan and Carson is that it was calm. They didn’t bite off more than they could chew in that sitting.
The strategy of communism is to overwhelm, to hit the public with so much crap, such big crap, and such constant crap, one big flying turd after another... so that any one of the turds has no chance to be genuinely sorted out and dealt with. Anybody trying to deal with what they’re doing is trying to bottle up every drop of rain in the middle of a tsunami. You can’t do it. You can’t speak reasonably about one particular issue and get to the bottom of it in that kind of sh!tstorm.
In addition to that, they so muddy the waters that it takes a lot of unpacking just to sort out the lies from the truth. If you have 10 minutes to talk about an issue, at least 5 minutes will be spent just pointing out all the stuff that’s been said that’s not true. As Reagan said, the problem is with the stuff that we know to be true that isn’t so.
Is there any penalty for news broadcasters deliberately spreading what they know isn’t true? Maybe just libel against those they lie about? Can press credentials be taken away? Or is there any other way to hold them accountable? They don’t care how much money they lose; the cabal will keep them afloat as long as they continue the propaganda, so the civil recourse of just not watching/reading/listening doesn’t scare them.
And we need to figure out a strategy for dealing with the rapid-fire cannons being used against the very fabric of the country. How can we address individual subjects calmly, so that people who don’t want to see the whole picture can still digest it?
