IтАЩve Been Critical of Trump, But HeтАЩs Dead Right To Tell Omar & America-Haters To Get Out – Josh Manning

Democrats and the establishment media hurling accusations of racism at President Donald Trump is nothing new. The volume of accusations being hurled, however, may be unprecedented after the presidentтАЩs weekend tweets at Minnesota Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar and her fellow squadmates.

TrumpтАЩs tweets, and the ensuing hullabaloo, need to be viewed clearly. The only way to do that is to strip away of all of the charged political rhetoric surrounding them.

So letтАЩs use an analogy.

LetтАЩs say youтАЩre sitting in your favorite Italian restaurant, minding your business, and enjoying a good meal. Suddenly, somebody stands up and starts badmouthing the place.

He ignores that the menu is packed with super-popular dishes. Instead, he talks about the handful of dishes the restaurant has tried over the years that people didnтАЩt like.

He even criticizes dishes the restaurant hasnтАЩt offered in years. He ignores that those bad dishes have been taken off the menu over time and that the restaurant staff is constantly working to eliminate other dishes that donтАЩt meet itтАЩs lofty standards.

He says the fact that the restaurant ever served those dishes in the first place means itтАЩs a bad restaurant. Again, he ignores how popular almost everything else on the menu is.

In fact, he says, making the restaurant Italian was a bad idea in the first place because he doesnтАЩt like Italian food. He ignores that the restaurant is packed full of people enjoying the food and that thereтАЩs a line of customers a mile long waiting outside the door.

He also makes a stink about the restaurant treating people wearing blue jackets like second class customers. He doesnтАЩt seem to notice that heтАЩs wearing a blue jacket and has been given the very best table and food the restaurant has to offer.

Would you ignore the way this unhinged guy is raging against your favorite restaurant, or would you eventually say, тАЬHey buddy, IтАЩm trying to have a nice, peaceful meal in my favorite restaurant. тАж If you donтАЩt like it, eat somewhere else.тАЭ

What if you were the manager of the restaurant? Would it be reasonable for you to tell the man you wish he would leave тАФ not that youтАЩre kicking him out, just that you wish he would leave? Would that be reasonable?

LetтАЩs say that critical customer goes to the media and starts badmouthing you and your restaurant. Would it be reasonable for you to tweet out, тАЬIf you donтАЩt like our restaurant, go back to the restaurant you used to eat at?тАЭ

We also know how Omar and her fellow squadmates have talked about America as it exists today and as it was founded. They enjoy the benefits and blessings of the place they condemn. They gorge on its goodness while decrying it as wretched.

Revisiting our restaurant critic friend, would it make sense to say his behavior is unreasonable, nonsensical and even bizarre? Of course it would.

By that same logic, then, what тАЬthe squadтАЭ is doing is unreasonable, nonsensical and even bizarre. So why donтАЩt they get called out for their nonsense? Because they cloak it in the garb of race, which means most Americans wonтАЩt dare call them out for fear of being called racist themselves.

That doesnтАЩt indicate racism. It indicates a visceral repulsion at the idea of racism тАФ hardly the America that тАЬthe squadтАЭ criticizes day in and day out.

IтАЩve been plenty critical of Trump since before he was even a candidate. I donтАЩt like his stance on trade. His use of populism concerns me. And some of his personal behavior really bothers me.

But he loves America, and that alone assures his skepticism of, and willingness to oppose, the leftтАЩs attempts to change the American experiment into a socialist straitjacket.

He despises anti-Americanism, not different races, creeds or orientations. If Trump wanted to be bigoted, why even bother with coded language like тАЬgo back [to where you came from]?тАЭ

After all, the new left now paints anyone questioning their extreme values as racist. (Remember how House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was something close to a racist last week, according to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez?)

Trumped tweeted not because heтАЩs a racist but because he finally got sick of Omar and companyтАЩs vomitatious and ubiquitous criticism of the greatest country in history.

A massive portion of the rest of the country is also sick of the same thing.

That portion includes Dr. Ben Carson, Herman Cain and Diamond and Silk, all of whom have rejected the absurd cries of тАЬracismтАЭ from the left.

So why the ear-deafening clamor from faux-offended Democrats and media members? There are two answers.

First, Trump doesnтАЩt fall into that category of Americans who fear being called a racist. He knows he isnтАЩt, and thatтАЩs good enough for him. He will live as he likes, unafraid of the consequences of┬а being called something heтАЩs not. That, by the way, is one reason beleaguered conservatives ran to him. They wanted someone who wasnтАЩt afraid of the leftтАЩs smear machine.

Second, Trump hit the most sensitive nerve the American left has. They know that if the American public, which is generally patriotic, realizes the left despises America and is uninterested in preserving it, the public will turn on them en masse.

And Trump just told the entire world these leftist politicians despise America. He did what no other Republican president has ever done.

ThatтАЩs why the frenzy. ThatтАЩs why the howling. ThatтАЩs why the chaos. He told the truth, and heтАЩs simply not afraid of the only weapon they have to use against him тАФ fake allegations of racism.

And the thing that fueled that response wasnтАЩt especially political. TrumpтАЩs tweet was perhaps the result not so much of political calculation but of anger at our country being continually degraded by those whoтАЩve benefited from it more than almost any other Americans ever will.

ThatтАЩs one of the reasons IтАЩm willing to overlook many of TrumpтАЩs foibles. At the end of the day, he loves my country and is determined to defend the American experiment against the leftтАЩs attempts to destroy it.

He loves my country and wants to protect it. I do too. They donтАЩt. ThatтАЩs not racism. And itтАЩs not a lot more complicated than that.
