I’m getting sick of this
There is one thing I’m getting damn sick of. That is this notion that if Donald Trump is indicted, it will cause “riots.” We have heard this by so many for so long. And it isn’t just Republican hacks. Even some mainstream journalists have pondered the question.
It’s pissing me off. And it should make each one of you angry. Because this is America. And WE DO NOT BOW DOWN. We do not and will not allow ourselves to be held hostage. And we do not negotiate with terrorists. We do not EVER bow down.
And yes, the Maga movement is a terrorist movement. More and more people are beginning to acknowledge that. So when South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham said that if Donald Trump is prosecuted, there would be “riots in the streets,” it infuriated me. It infuriated me because America is proud and free and she doesn’t bow down.
Terrorists live to cause fear. It’s what they do. That is why they’re terrorists. They want to provoke terror in your heart. They want people to live their lives feeling as though they’re in mortal danger.
And Lindsey Graham should stop this insane talk right now. There are limits when it comes to defending a traitor, and Lindsey Graham has stepped over those limits. Can you begin to imagine an America where we DID negotiate with terrorists? Can you imagine how destructive that would be?
This is America, Mr. Graham. We are about love, not about terror and hate. And we do not bow down to ANYBODY. I will quote poet and artist Jacques Brel: “If we only have love, We will never bow down. We’ll be tall as the pines. Neither heroes nor clowns.”
This is who America is — a proud country that has seen both heaven and hell. America has been through the wringer, the most difficult and agonizing of times, but has always come back sweeter, more fragrant, and noble than ever. And the last thing America will EVER do is bow down to Trump, to Maga or to ANYONE.
