To conservative voters: You have been given a gift. The
gift is this: Your guy won, your team has the house and the senate. And it's
going....not great. My charge to you: figure out how you want to be represented
in history. You are on the cusp of being the party that rose up and fought for
what you told us you stood for, or you can be the people we have to explain to
our children, when they asked why no one fought the breakdown of our democracy.
If you voted for the president or a republican senator
because you believe in fiscal conservatism, you should be furious that your tax
dollars are going to build a wall that will have zero impact on the effects of
immigration.
If you hate the left because of "Political
Correctness," you need to be asking yourself if you're okay with the
President censoring communications from MULTIPLE government organizations like
the National Park Service, the EPA and more.
If you voted because you
hated Secretary Clinton's email server, I expect you to be calling your
representatives to ask why Steve Bannon and others continue to use their
unsecured personal emails and why your president is using an unsecured android
device still.
If you voted because you believed they would be better
protection against terrorists, you need to ask yourself why it's okay that your
president just took away $130 million in anti-terror funds from New York with
his punishment of Sanctuary Cities.
If you are angry that your insurance is too expensive,
you should ask why your senators are repealing ACA without a replacement, an
action that will leave 20 million people without insurance at all.
If you believe the Clinton initiative provided unequal
treatment to countries that supported their foundation, you should be livid
that your president has moved to block visas from Muslim countries like Syria,
Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen, but not places where he has
business ties like Egypt, Qatar, Turkey, United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia.
This is an opportunity to prove that you voted for the
reasons you told me you did. I am taking you seriously, I am taking you
literally.
