OPINION:
In spite of moderator Chris Wallace’s efforts at “moral equivalence” throughout the first 2020 presidential debate, President Trump was having none of it. Mr. Wallace tried, via phony questions about Charlottesville and BLM/Antifa, to get Mr. Trump to “unequivocally” condemn “white supremecy” (with the purpose of giving the Democrats their talking points that “both sides” are responsible for the violence in Democrat-run cities) — but Mr. Trump refused to take the bait.
Mr. Wallace’s final effort at injecting Democratic talking points into the debate was the “mail-in ballots” canard and its adjunct, the “peaceful transfer of power.” Unfortunately for the political left, those of us who read are aware of the Transition Integrity Project and its goal of creating chaos, delaying election results and fomenting violence after voting. During the debate, Mr. Trump rightfully pointed out that since his election the man standing at the podium across from him (as well as the other seditious conspirators from the Obama administration/deep state) have been mounting a coup against him — and to ask him about the “peaceful transfer of power” is just another attempt to justify Democratic violence. It was under Mr. Obama, after all, that such a transfer failed to take place for the first time in our history.
The left’s Alinskyite “ends justify the means” mentality is the real problem in our culture. Sorry, Joe, you and your party own BLM and Antifa and their violence and mayhem. And no, both sides are not to blame. Try living up to the Ninth Commandment.
