The No King\u2019s protest events throughout America proves how misdirected many people are.\u00a0They oppose a president destined to be rated in the top 5 of history after just enduring a president who is rated in the bottom 5, more accurately bottom 3. Why do so many people make emotional judgments rather than judge based upon what actions improve or damage America?<\/p>\n
If I have an employee who is offensive in some way, by conversation or attitude and yet is one of the best employees in my company, you can believe he will be applauded.\u00a0 Would you fire a teacher who is abrupt and outspoken but has the best educated class in school?\u00a0 Results are what counts in my perspective of people.\u00a0 A phony is easy to spot if you have your sights set on results.<\/p>\n
Springsteen is the best way to evaluate No Kings day.\u00a0 He was the attraction in Minnesota for No Kings. I did some\u00a0research on Springsteen.\u00a0Looked up his political views, mostly demonstrated by his songs. All I could find were negative statements about Trump and criticisms about America.\u00a0 Ironically the problems he cited were primarily the result of governance by Democrats.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u2022 He cites the loss of jobs in one of his songs. This is due in large part to the lack of tariffs and the incentive to move manufacturing to China and other countries due to the low costs of labor and with no tariffs in this country they can make the product cheaper and sell it very cheaply in America.\u00a0 Clinton was instrumental in much of this as was Obama and Biden.\u00a0 Europe has high tariffs resulting in America selling almost no cars in Europe but buying 40% of our cars from Europe because of our low tariffs.\u00a0 Ditto with China.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Springsteen cites the Vietnam war as a negative in his songs, and it was negative but started by a Democrat and ended by a Republican.<\/p>\n
\u2022 A song\u00a0against our personal safety in America was\u00a0written about the 1999 police killing of unarmed Guinean immigrant Amadou Diallo, who was standing in front of his apartment building in the Bronx when he was peppered with 41 bullets.\u00a0 NYC was and is a Democratic stronghold and with the exception of\u00a0Republican\u00a0Guiliani\u2019s term, full of crime and political spending.<\/p>\n
To me Springsteen would be one to follow if he projected ideas on how to make America better instead of just telling falsehoods, being negative about America and swearing about conservatives.<\/p>\n
He attracts a crowd who think like he does.\u00a0 He hates Trump and many things about America but has no ideas on how to improve it.\u00a0 His objective is merely to influence people to vote Democrat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
