The Real Reason Why the Left was Against Donald Trump's July 4 Speech

The Real Reason Why the Left was Against Donald Trump's July 4 Speech
Excerpt: Now we know why the Democrats were so upset about President Donald Trump speaking on the Fourth of July. It was not because it was political or partisan. It was patriotic, and that is what annoys the left the most. Several days before the speech, we heard that Trump was hijacking Independence Day and turning it into a campaign rally. But Trump never mentioned the 2020 campaign in his speech. We heard that Trump’s desire to have tanks on the National Mall was an out-and-out authoritarian performance art. But that wasn’t really the issue. Neither was the fake outrage over the cost. There was no mention of political opponents and no mention of the fake news media. And this wasn’t Trump co-opting the nation’s birthday to celebrate himself. In fact, for a man who loves to talk about his accomplishments, he never mentioned himself. No, Trump did something far more dangerous to the left. He gave America a strong dose of patriotism. He gave Americans a history lesson on the great people, heroes and their great accomplishments over the past 243 years. (I watched only part of Trump's July 4th event, but what I saw is just what is described below. No political campaigning, no attacking anyone, no bubbling self praise. Amazingly, it was just about the military and the positive points of this nation. Yes, it was full of his customary bombastic overstatements, and he slipped and talked about "airports" when he meant "ports", and perhaps some would say a few aspects were over the top, but he was really overall a positive affair. Surprising..... but it deserves to be recognized for what is was, and what it was not. --Del)
