Mark and Patricia McCloskey Warn: Your Suburban Family 'Will Not Be Safe in the Radical Democrats' America'

Rick Moran

"The media has been scoffing at Donald Trump’s warning that riots could come to suburbia, accusing him of trying to scare suburban women into voting against Joe Biden.
""Kenosha, Wisc., isn’t exactly suburbia, but it isn’t New York or Chicago either. The small, quiet city of 100,000 people has been rocked by violent riots the last two nights following a questionable shooting by a police officer. It may be one of the last places the sophisticates on both coasts might expect racial unrest, but it’s there and it’s happening.
""Mark and Patricia McCloskey are a wealthy couple who live in a beautiful home in St. Louis. When what is referred to as a “peaceful protest march” passed their home, the McCloskeys felt threatened enough to arm themselves and stand in their front yard to protect their home.
""Soros-backed Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner is apparently willing to let a lot of lawlessness from protesters slide, but wants to throw the McCloskeys in prison because they felt threatened enough to protect what they’ve spent their lives building.
"On Monday night, the McCloskeys addressed the nation when they spoke at the Republican National Convention. Their message was simple: the protests are coming to your neighborhood and it doesn’t matter where you live."

Fox News:

Certain policies — such as defunding the police, ending cash bail and ending single-family home zoning — makes it seem “as if Democrats no longer view the government’s job as protecting honest citizens from criminals, but rather protecting criminals from honest citizens,” Mark McCloskey said.“These are the policies that are coming to a neighborhood near you,” Patricia McCloskey added. “So make no mistake: No matter where you live, your family will not be safe in the radical Democrats’ America.”

The Stunning Gullibility Of ‘Republicans For Biden’

Flake calling Trump not a conservative is particularly rich, given that Trump has done more to advance the conservative agenda – on economics, foreign policy, social issues – than any president, including Ronald Reagan.

I & I Editorial Board   "On the eve of the Republican convention, more than two dozen former GOP lawmakers endorsed Joe Biden for president. Trump Derangement Syndrome is spreading faster than COVID-19.

     "Retired Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake makes his case for supporting Biden by claiming Trump “is not conservative,” that Biden “will approach his constitutional role with the reverence and dignity it deserves” and “reach across the aisle.”

Jeff "Mitt" Flake

     "This is the same argument John Kasich, a former congressman and Ohio governor, made at the Democratic National Convention, when he reassured the public that Biden is “respectful” and won’t “turn sharp left” when he gets in office.
     "None of this makes any sense, yet a growing number of Republicans are buying into it.
     "First, how do these Republicans know Biden will “reach across the aisle”? They don’t. Their gullibility and naivete are a wonder to behold.
     "The truth is, there’s absolutely no reason whatsoever to believe Biden would stay in the center.
     "A Biden win will surely bring with it a Democratic-controlled House and Senate. We already know what will happen next, since it’s happened before. After Bill Clinton ran as a moderate, he immediately veered left upon taking office, raised taxes he’d promised to cut and tried to impose HillaryCare on the nation.
     "After Barack Obama wooed Republicans with his calm demeanor, his seemingly sensible positions, and the sharp crease in his pants, he spent the first two years imposing ObamaCare and the economy-crushing Dodd-Frank on the nation.
     "Heck, even Lyndon Johnson, who portrayed Barry Goldwater as a radical in 1964, enacted Medicare, Medicaid and the disaster known as the “Great Society” the first chance he got.
     "Worse, while Clinton and to a lesser extent Obama positioned themselves as moderates, Biden has swallowed the far left’s agenda hook, line and sinker. As we pointed out in this space more than a month ago: . . ."

Nancy Pelosi Goes On Deranged Rant, Labels Republicans ‘Enemies of the State’

RedState  "Nancy Pelosi is not well. That’s the impression any normal person would get watching her over the last several months. As the possible re-election of Donald Trump has grown closer, she’s become more and more unhinged (see Nancy Pelosi Has a Mental Breakdown On Camera, Starts Yelling ‘No’ At Reporter Over and Over). And it’s not just the words she says. It’s also her mannerisms, her stumbling over her words, and the constant need to suck on her own teeth, as if they are always just seconds from exiting her mouth. This is not a woman who should still hold a position of power are the age of 80.

"Today, she once again upped the toxicity of the rhetoric in a wild rant where she labeled Republicans “enemies of the state” and “domestic enemies to our voting system.”

These are the flailings of a politician who knows their crazy conspiracy theory about the Post Office has crashed and burned. She desperately wants to keep the narrative going despite the fact that the Postmaster General has provided proof he took none of the actions he was accused of. In fact, he went so far as to reverse previously enacted policy under the Obama administration to avoid even the appearance of impropriety.

. . .

'Disgusting': Lawmakers React to Pelosi's New Slur Against Republicans  . . . "While Pelosi's comment could have been mistaken for typical Nancy rhetoric that she is quite famous for, many fellow members of Congress didn't take too kindly to being called an enemy of their own country, simply for not believing her party's bonkers conspiracy about the post office. 

"House Minority Whip Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) harkened back to 2017 when he and three others were shot during practice for an annual charity baseball game. The shooter, James Hodgkinson, was a left-wing activist. Investigators described the shooting as "an act of terrorism...fueled by rage against Republican legislators.' " 

Democrats and their media: corrupt spinelessness on display

Cowardice is a trait wherein excessive fear prevents an individual from taking a risk or facing danger. It is the opposite of courage. As a label, "cowardice" indicates a failure of character in the face of a challenge. One who succumbs to cowardice is known as a coward.  Wikipedia

Democrats are pretending the cities aren’t burning   . . ."The Democrats put an accent on every disturbing development during the Trump years, but not on the disorder that has caused countless millions in property damage, killed and injured innocent people and contributed to rising lawlessness in cities around the country.
"About that, they maintained a discreet silence.
"Across four nights and eight hours of programming, no one mentioned it — not the community activists, not the mayors or governors, not the former presidents and first ladies, and emphatically not the party’s current nominees for president and vice president.
"As far as the Democrats were concerned, recent events that have had a profound effect on ­urban communities — places ­almost uniformly governed by Democratic mayors — simply never happened." . . .

MSNBC Cuts Away So Viewers Don’t Hear Kim Klacik’s Terrific Condemnation of Democratic Failure  . . . "But MSNBC apparently didn’t want to hear the speech or have Americans hear it. CNN has already showed their bias when they indicated they would cover the RNC differently than the DNC. While they gave the DNC a pass, they said they might cut away if they saw “disinformation” at the RNC. But MSNBC had actually been covering most of it.

"But apparently they didn’t want to cover the speech or injure the false narrative of what and who Republicans are?" .  . . The video MSNBC didn't want you to see.

CNN Cuts Off Trump Speech, John King Accuses President Of ‘Wrong, Misleading, Or Outright Lies’  . . . "Trump, a frequent critic of ballot harvesting and mail-in voting was speaking on the topic Monday when CNN anchor Anderson Cooper broke into the broadcast to accuse the president of going “negative” in the convention’s “first moments.”
“He started off falsely attacking mail-in voting,” Cooper said. “He’s continuing to attack mail-in voting as his postmaster general testifies that the attacks are ‘unhelpful.’ That’s his own postmaster general. He also criticized the media for airing the postmaster’s hearing instead of his roll call.”

“ 'He falsely accused Democrats of wanting to shut down the country to hurt the economy and somehow help them at the ballot box,” he continued. “Unclear how angering the entire country by shutting down would help them at the ballot box.”

RNC provides a glimpse into future of GOP after Trump  . . . "Liberals believe that their view of culture will lead to a society of more racial progress. But Scott put a different spin on it, warning that the left-wing vision of America would crush the American Dream. Whether or not Trump pulls off another upset in November, or gets trounced, his influence on the Republican Party is likely to be felt well after he leaves office."

The Mirror-Image Convention  "The first night of the 2020 Republican National Convention was a mirror image of last week's Democratic telethon. The issues that the Democrats ignored—violence in the cities and China—were mentioned again and again. Where the Democrats showcased elected officials and celebrities, some of the most effective speeches on night one of the RNC came from lesser-known individuals such as activist Andrew Pollack, Cuban immigrant Maximo Alvarez, and nurse Amy Ford. The phrase "systemic racism" wasn't heard. But paeans to American greatness and American exceptionalism limned each address.

A ragecat GOP convention with a fierce message of 'fight'  "The GOP is famous for its civility, its reasoned arguments, its uplifting messages, its thousand points of light, its doughty flag-waving.  Historically, it's always been a bit of an anti-climax to the more raucous version from the Democrats.
"Not this time.
"What stood out for me in this convention was not its uplift, which was there, but its ragecat fury, its fight.  As Eric Hoffer wrote in his 1979 memoirs: "People need to get angry," and earlier, "there is a lack of ability to get angry."
"The GOP is getting angry. " . . .

WSJ: You Know, Joe Biden's COVID Plan Sounds Awfully Familiar

Biden and Democrats' entire strategy depends on our ignorance and shallowness. Biden names the list Trump has completed as his own plans and we are ready to admire his intelligence and thereby vote for him. TD

Joe who?

Townhall  "Picking up on a theme that the Trump campaign has been advancing for months, the editorial board of the Wall Street Journal noted over the weekend that for all of Joe Biden's complaints about the Trump administration's COVID response, the 'better' course of action the Democratic nominee is recommending actually hews rather closely to what the incumbent's team has already done -- and is currently doing.  We've already fact-checked some of the Biden-Harris ticket's claims and comparisons regarding Coronavirus. This editorial adds some additional color and context:

The Democratic nominee is promising a better virus strategy, which would be wonderful if he had one. But the virus plan he’s pushing is little different on the substance than what the Trump Administration is already doing...Mr. Trump’s virus policy in practice has been better than his critics claim, and Mr. Biden isn’t offering better ideas. Start with testing. Mr. Biden promises to “develop and deploy rapid tests with results available immediately.” Great—the Food and Drug Administration in the past week has approved two new rapid tests that can be scaled up quickly. The FDA and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention botched the initial testing rollout. And earlier this summer, shortages of chemical reagents and lab equipment led to delays in processing tests amid a surge of infections. But supply-chain hiccups are gradually being worked out. The U.S. is now conducting 700,000 or so tests a day, up from about 400,000 in early June and 100,000 in late March...

Mr. Biden is also calling for “a coordinated, country-wide, future-facing national effort to acquire, produce, and distribute PPE, test kits and machines, lab supplies, and other critical supplies, including by fully utilizing the authorities” under the Defense Production Act. The Administration is already doing nearly all of this. The Pentagon this spring issued $259 million in contracts to 3M, Honeywell and Owens & Minor to produce tens of millions of N95 face masks for medical workers. U.S. companies like GM and New Balance have retrofitted plants to produce ventilators and PPE, and the Administration has used the Defense Production Act to allocate more tests and protective equipment to hot spots. Mr. Biden wants to hire 100,000 federal workers to track down contacts of people who get sick. States are already doing this, though public-health officials say contract tracing is of little use when the virus is widespread in communities.

“The soft bigotry of Joe expectations.”

Power Line  The estimable James Lileks—the third greatest living Minnesotan after John and Scott—has come up with the perfect one sentence slogan about the hapless nominee of the Democratic Party: “The soft bigotry of Joe expectations.” File that one away and use it often.

Restaurant Servers in Maine Ordered to Wear Dog ‘Cones of Shame’ While Serving Food

"Please nobody tell Joe Biden. He’ll add this to his national mask mandate that he doesn’t have the constitutional power to impose, but what’s a little piece of paper when there’s a pandemic."

Biden is no more of a unifying figure than Obama or Bush (I’ll concede on Trump). There is no reason to believe he would do for unity what these two presidents didn’t.  . . ."In fact, there’s good reason to believe that America would be even more divided under Biden than it is now. Biden has tilted far to the left. If he were to govern that way, resistance would (and should) be fierce. If, instead, he were to move towards the center, he wouldn’t even be able to keep the Democratic Party united. Nor would (or should) Republicans unite behind a center-left presidency." . . .
