Several small victories the past few days

I think that’s a good sign

Alan Dershowitz leaves Democratic party after anti-Israel DNC
'I was disgusted,' he declared. 'That's not my party.'

Well, it did take him quite a while to come to that conclusion, I must say.

I call him an overly stubborn "classic liberal".

sigmonkey,

In another Dershowitz interview that I posted on the KKKKK thread, towards the end of it Dersh says that he is "Independent" and will make up his mind on how to vote at the 'last minute'.

After his anti-dem rants in several interviews now, this statement comes across as somewhat weak and cowardly, imho.

Does anyone here think Derschowicz may not want to come out and publicly support Trump. When Trump returns to the White House do you think Barry, Soros and the Democrat machine isn't going to try more impeachment shenanigans. Maybe Derschowicz knows if he publicly supports Trump he may have issues with his ability to practice law. I know he's admitted in Massachusetts and New York, as well as many Federal Circuits. There are many who want him gone for being on Trump's first impeachment trial team.

We should be willing to accept anyone who is disenfranchised a place to begin "winning" their mind and soul. Expecting them to step over the line of division with the same insight and outlook as us, will almost always end up with them returning to their "roots" and becoming more resistant to leave once again.

We should stand on principles that are sound and palpable that will attract people to risk the "turn", and not the necks of those who are looking for a reason to "come to stay" that they submit.

The facts are the left does that, but they are patently dishonest, and have no morals when it comes to presenting a lie of who and what they are. Therefore they attract, like a flytrap with deception, and then keep people by feeding them enough of the lie, to keep them.

We need to attract people with honesty, and let people stay for the truth. People are always looking, but if we are seen as angry, bitter, hateful, instead of stoic, firm and receiving of seekers of truth, we get nothing but what we've earned.

It's similar to Para's position on negativity. Sure, there are things of concern, but if they are merely demoralizing hand wringing and pearl clutching, they serve no benefit to determined focus on the fight.

Both sides of battle have those who are fighting.
Many battles are won by the will and determination of one, and lost by the defeat in the mind of the other.

Alan D. is a relic of the time when Republicans were seen as WASP's (White Anglo-Saxon Protestants) who ran Wall Street, Big Law Firms, and Corporations, and discriminated against Jews and Catholics. The old "country club" set. Just like the southerners who died as old Conservative Democrats, he will never officially be a Republican, even if he votes Republican.

I love Tulsi Gabbard. This is from 2019 on The View. She is working very closely with Trump, and I hope he gives her a high position in his cabinet.

SecDef ?

Yes, Secretary of Defense would be perfect.

Secretary of Homeland Security Tulsi Gabbard.

sigmonkey,

Thank you for your reply, and I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiments expressed in your entire post.

It is definitely a positive to see Dershowitz coming to realize what the Democrat party has become, and he is rightfully disgusted with it for what he saw at the DNC, but also the D’s gross perversions with ‘the law’ and ‘justice’ as it were, for many years now.

That said, with the critical importance of this election, not just for the United States and the world at large, but the future safety, security and support of Israel is of great concern to me, as well as how Jewish people are treated in the USA and around the world.

I am shocked, as well as you and many others, at the steep rise in anti-Semitism in recent years, which did not occur in an innocent vacuum.

It is from this perspective and the fact that the election is just under two months away, that Alan Dershowitz could have a large and significant impact to help bring the ‘Jewish vote’ over to President Trump if he endorses him sooner rather that later (and likely other D’s as well).

Maybe his declared support for President Trump could make a difference or maybe not, but these are extraordinary times with too much at stake.

With the High Holidays coming up, this type of conversation around the Rosh Hashanah dinner table and the Yom Kippur break-fast meal could be a very positive things.

Dersh’s declared support for PDJT would be a great ‘ice breaker’ to start the conversation amongst family.

My own immediate family, including Aunts, Uncles and Cousins are hard-core dems, and I am certain that my pleas and reasoning will fall on deaf ears with them, as they always do. Trust me, it’s quite infuriating, and I. DON’T. GET. IT.

Oy vey!

Respectfully,

Rob

I wasn't very sure about her at first, but I've changed my mind; I really, really like her now! I just hope she's not a wolf in sheep's clothing...

Thanks for the reply. (we were not in disagreement, just talking about about the different parts of the elephant)

As for the last, I just never give up. People may see me "fighting a losing battle" or "wasting time on fruitless endeavor", but if I quit, I have lost all invested, and in this life, somethings are worth every bit of time spent on them.

One willing to spend a career in the military, preparing for and doing all in order to preserve that which is dear, should I quit on this fight for even one more person to vote in a manner that is for the good of this nation and the future Americans, it is the best use of some of my time.

It costs me very little, but the benefit, if realized, is on order of magnitude.

And Dershowitz is making waves, even if he did not make a bold proclamation, the fact that he has broken rank and file, has not gone unnoticed.

Even an atomic explosion starts as an insignificant event, compared to the result.

Well…it’s accurate.
