Recently, I watched Dinish D’Souza give a speech at Columbia University. He is an immigrant from India. He has been studying the U.S. political system for years and has made a few documentaries, such as “Obama’s America” and “Hillary’s America.”
He stated that it was Democrats who created the slave trade in this country. No Republican ever had a slave. He stated that the Democratic Party created the KKK to keep the blacks in line after the Civil War.
He stated that civil rights legislation were enacted by Republicans, with only a few Democratic votes and that the welfare system is similar to a plantation. That is how the Democrats got the black vote, the native American vote, the Muslim vote, the Mexican vote — by offering free stuff.
Every Democrat I know will say that’s not true. Well, it is history.
D’Souza stated that the media are liberal with few exceptions, and they all hate Donald Trump. They never hold Democrats accountable for anything.
He said Trump will be a great president, along the line of Reagan. I agree.
It was an awesome speech. There were protesters outside but D’Souza said they were kept under control.
Democrats just need to get over losing the election. They lost the House, the Senate, the presidency and soon the Supreme Court. They are relegated to rioters and rabble rousers.
Can anyone imagine if conservatives had done to Barack Obama what those idiots are doing to the president now?
