In a recent interview with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton raised the level of her animus towards Republicans by saying, “You cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for.”
The comment has sparked a national discussion about Democrats’ recently acquired propensity to discard civility in favor of violence and bullying tactics. Some, like former Attorney General Eric Holder have supported Clinton by suggesting that when Republicans go low, Democrats should “kick them.” While others, like Sen. Heidi Heitkamp, who is fighting for re-election, have called such comments “ridiculous.”
From my standpoint, the statement begs another question. If Hillary Clinton in referring to the Republican Party says she cannot be civil because it is trying to destroy those things for which she stands, then what exactly is it that Clinton stands for?
According to the Republican Party’s platform, it stands for American exceptionalism. It affirms the concepts put forth in the Declaration of Independence that all men are created equal, endowed by their Creator with inalienable rights, and that amongst these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It believes that freedom and economic freedom are indivisible.
The platform believes that people, not government, are the greatest stewards of our God-given resources. Republicans wish for peace and insist on strength to guarantee it. The platform seeks friendship with all peoples and all nations, and it is devoted to the support of the men and women of our military, our law enforcement officers, and our first responders.
And what are Republicans trying to destroy? They are trying to destroy all remnants of racism and discrimination. They are trying to combat socialism and collectivist philosophies whose aim it is to destroy personal liberties. The Republican Party is trying to destroy anti-Semitism. It is trying to destroy oppression, especially if that oppression stemming from ignorance. It is trying to destroy unwarranted violence, lawlessness, and anarchy.
So, after reviewing the things for which the Republican Party stands and those it adamantly opposes, the question for Clinton is: exactly what are those things that she stands for that she believes the Republican Party is trying to destroy? Really.
It’s an honest question.
If you can’t be civil with a party that is destroying those things for which you stand, and that party is the Republican Party, then what exactly do you stand for that would be so onerous to Republicans that they are out to destroy it based in its stated beliefs? And please, Clinton, don’t cop out by fashioning your response while including the words “President,” or “Donald,” or “Trump,” because the things that Republicans stand for as well as those they are trying to destroy are much bigger than any one person. At the very least, they are certainly bigger than the disdain any person may have for another.
And what has Trump done and said that is destroying what you stand for? In his recent speech in Pennsylvania, the President reiterated the bedrock points above, outlined what needs protecting and reviewed the successes of the administration.
A few examples:
“Democrats support a socialist takeover of health care that would totally obliterate Medicare. Republicans want to protect Medicare for our great seniors who have earned it and who have paid for it all their lives.’
“We’ve created over 4.2 million new jobs and lifted over 4 million people off of food stamps. We’ve added almost 600,000 new manufacturing jobs. They were supposed to be gone forever. African-American unemployment has reached its lowest level in history…women’s unemployment has just fallen to 3.6 percent, which is only the lowest rate in 65 years.”
“We are replacing NAFTA with an incredible brand-new U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement called USMCA” (that strengthens the hand of the American worker.)
“We will not bend, we will not break. We will never give in, we will never give up, we will never back down, and we will never surrender. And we will always fight on to victory. Because we are Americans, and our hearts bleed red, white, and blue. We are one people, one family, and one glorious nation under God.”
So please, Hillary Clinton, answer the question if you can. Exactly what are those things that you stand for that the Republican Party and President Trump are trying to destroy? I eagerly await your response.
Her freedom....................
Great post!
“What Does Hillary Clinton Stand For That Republicans Are Destroying?”
A LIEberal/Socialist/Marxist/Fascist/Communist “By Any Means Necessary” movement intent on destroying America!
What Does Hillary Clinton Stand For That Republicans Are Destroying?
The tsunami of Bullshit and hoax spewed by democrats.
I know, I know: The establishment of a totalitarian oligarchy where they are the ruthless rulers over the people of the world. The execution chambers of hatred are itching in their hearts and minds.
... a global marxist -muslim alliance glibly called the NWO.
LOL. One can hope.
The 30 year bipartisan policy of non-enforcement of laws and borders intended to fundamentally transform the country, also known as the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA)
When asked such a question, every Clinton supporter will be rendered DUMB, speechless. Their answer could only be: We stand for power, taking it all at any cost. They’ve no thoughts as to God or Country and citizens’ well being.
The Democrat’s dream of gaining an unbeatable majority by granting amnesty to 20 million illegals?
When their Black support declines all they will have Left is felons and illegals.
Her desire to be the anti-Christ?
This is all about abortion, of course.
criminal mentality (mass stealing, fraud, murder) + psychopathic mentality + sadistic mentality + religious worship of big government mentality + force & aggression & brutality + reign of terror = socialism
She can hardly stand without assistance.
Here is a list of her Senate accomplishments when she represented New York:
Communism.
Her own acquisition of power.
Honestly, her list would probably include:
Access to Abortions
Involvement in Climate Control Deals
Enforcement of PC speech restrictions
Open Borders
Global Trade agreements
The left holds these things so dear they are worth harming people over.
Hillary needs to STH up. She’s got this cockeyed notion that she won by acclamation like they do in the Third World.
That’s not the way we elect presidents in America. Voters didnt want her as president. She needs to live with it.
We’re sick of her bloviating. This self-centered parasite loves the sound of her own voice. Out of power, she’s downright scary.
She’s got the nerve to cite America’s historic motto: “e pluribus unum.” “Out of many, one”......
That means One Nation, One People, One Goal.
It NEVER meant the monstrosity of “diversity” foisted on us by her and the power-mad Democrats.
Diversity is anti-American.
Its a bunch of self-serving hyphenates separated into factions with Third World mentalities.... ..trampling the oneness that is America.
