Quote:I hate this because I am a liberal. What I'm am absolutely not is a leftist, and that's what you really mean.

 

I've stated on here before that I subscribe to old school liberalism. This 'with us or agin us' stance adopted by the wings of both parties is what truly divides America. It doesn't help when the press, who should act as moderators in the debate by accurately reporting facts, has chosen a side. While Trump is far from my ideal president, his abrupt style has at least slowed the plunge of leftism in this country. A swing so far to the left that ideals other than their own are met with loud and sometimes violent protest. That fact alone should be alarming to any leftists who truly embrace freedom.
