Transform Yourself, Not America

The United States of America is, without any doubt, the most successful nation ever conceived by mankind. No nation has ever achieved the level of freedom, economic stability, and standard of living that we enjoy along with the capability and willingness to defend it.

Bernie Sanders spent his life producing nothing but complaint

Much of this success stems from our Judeo-Christian culture and the experiences of countless immigrants who came here in search of freedom—be it religious, economic, or political.

You can go as far as you are willing to work, compete, and risk.

It does not work for the Bernie Sanders types that spend their lives complaining about the lack of whatever. When Bernie was a young man in 1971, he joined the Myrtle Hill Farm in Vermont, a back-to-the-land commune. He spent all his time in "endless political discussion," griping about what was wrong, rather than doing the physical labor necessary to maintain the farm. He was asked to leave after only three days. Sanders spent his life producing nothing but complaint. His protests are chronic. He'd rather dictate to you how to live. He has become a millionaire on selling discontent and grievance. He hasn't changed.

Was anyone listening to those poisonous politicians?

The Democrats are out to transform America into a country we would never recognize. Obama said it numerous times. Biden said it in 2020. Bernie Sanders in 2019. Schumer said it in 2020: "Now we take Georgia, and then we change the world!... we change America!" He later emphasized a goal of "big, bold change." They want a one-party, socialist state.

Change? Change? Has life in America grown so tiresome that we want to tear it all down?

Was anyone listening to those poisonous politicians? Should we alter a successful formula to appease the Bernie Sanders contingent, which refuses to contribute? Do we need fundamental change or tweaking? Do we want freedom or slavery? Do we want to build our own house as grand as we can afford, or would we rather share a single house with three other families like it was in the Soviet Union? Or perhaps our own little apartment we were assigned cheaply among millions of others we waited years for that is too small to be really comfortable or adequate.

It's funny and sad to watch Dems discuss inflation when they created it

The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) have inundated the Democrat Party, on the verge of a complete takeover or, at the very least, a major voice. They openly express socialism as if it is a new and innovative idea. Young people who notice these ideas without proper education or experience are made to feel passionate and enthusiastic about "sharing" in the bounty of America, despite the lack of risk, work, or education involved.

These socialists express this sentiment every chance they get. The co-chair of DSA, Megan Romer, said in 2026 that the long-term strategy included abolishing the presidency, the Senate, the Supreme Court, defunding the Pentagon, and abolishing borders.

The 2016 Democratic Party Platform also called for a "societal transformation" to end "systemic racism," and the term "transform" has become a recurring keyword in Democratic legislative efforts, such as the Build Back Better Act.

It's plain: the Democrats hate our country

Are complaints of systemic racism credible coming from a political party that fought a war to protect slavery? Have they truly changed, or are they looking for new slaves to lord over?

Socialism was tried here. In America over 40 utopian experiments were tried in the 19th century. All failed because most people were unwilling to do the labor without personal profit. It was overloaded with idealists (Sanders types) with a scarcity of people willing to work. It resulted in widespread hunger and internal conflict. Research Robert Owen, who founded New Harmony, Indiana, in 1825.

It's plain: the Democrats hate our country. Rather, they may have exhausted their ideas and feel the need to create significant problems to campaign on, even when few exist. So they sell "Hope and Change." Hope and change for what? This is not Somalia.

It's funny and sad to watch Dems discuss inflation when they created it. Do we have systemic racism? After 8 years of Obama, how could anyone believe we are a racist country?

America does not belong to those who hate it. America belongs to those who love it!

Ask Thomas Sowell if we are a racist country. He was raised in Harlem; his mother died; he left school at 17; he served in the Marine Corps and earned a B.A. magna cum laude at Harvard (1958), an M.A. from Columbia (1959), and a Ph.D. from the University of Chicago (1968).

I can hear someone say that Mr. Sowell achieved it because he received a higher education and worked hard with a goal. Question answered. I graduated college with no job waiting for me and $45 in my pocket. I was determined to pursue my goals and dived into the fray. Yes, I was scared, but not enough to give up. BTW, I owed lots in student loans and paid every cent back.

Does America not work for some individuals? Yes. We are a country of merit, hard work, and risk. For those willing to engage in the higher pursuits of education, training, and risk-taking, the rewards can be great. No one guarantees success in this life. If you are unwilling or unable to achieve, there are plenty of safety nets available.

The government owes you nothing but the freedom to achieve

I had to obtain food stamps for my last year of college. The day I graduated, I went to the food stamp office to thank them. The staff at the food stamp office encouraged me to continue receiving assistance. I turned it down. For those who choose to depend on them, life will be basic, but even the poor in America have large flat-screen TVs.

I mention this situation because it reflects the current climate reality. To surrender our country to communists, fascists, Islamists, anarchists, or insurrectionists will require a civil war. These Bolsheviks need to think long and hard about their actions. So far, everything they have achieved has been through deceit and duplicity.

For those budding socialists out there, snap out of it. The government owes you nothing but the freedom to achieve. And you have that freedom, thanks to the many who fought and died for it.

America does not belong to those who hate it. America belongs to those who love it!~President DONALD J. TRUMP
