American admiration was shown to Canadian truckers for standing up against the government’s attempts to restrict their rights to their health and freedom. As Americans, we look at Ukrainians fighting for the survival of their nation. Their leader stayed behind and requested ammo instead of a ride to safety. They were not told to leave, but the men realize that it is necessary or they will lose their country.
America is a beacon of liberty for many people all over the globe. What would the Americans do in a similar situation? If we invaded Ukraine, would they be willing to fight for their country?
Unfortunately, there’s a shockingly high number of people who say they would not according to a new Quinnipiac poll and it probably isn’t hard to guess their political persuasion. It’s not Republican, and it isn’t independent. It is concerning to note the age range that would leave.
The results make sobering — and often disgraceful — reading. Sixty-eight percent of Republicans said that they would “stay and fight,” with 25 percent indicating that they’d run away. Among independents, those numbers are 57–36. Among Democrats, they’re in negative territory, at 40–52. The leave/stay numbers for men and women aged 50 to 64 are 66/28. These numbers are only 45/48 for 18-34-year-olds. Another way to say it: The majority of prime-aged Americans the United States would require if there were a crisis imagines that they would run.
So not only would most Democrats run — 52 percent — most of the folks who are of the age to fight — 18-34 — would also flee. This isn’t a fight in a foreign land, this is if there’s a straight-up attack on America.
It is disgraceful, which can be quite concerning. Now, a majority — 55 to 38 percent — did say they would stay and fight, saved by the Republicans and independents. However, this is different from the attack on Pearl Harbor. People lied about age to be able to serve the country. Everyone was eager to help. Nobody would ever have thought to say no. It is a very sorry and different time now.
What’s the rationale for this? I can, of course, only speculate since I’m not in the people’s heads. People on the right have been so indoctrinated regarding the United States that many believe America is evil. That’s the result of years of indoctrination in our schools and universities to turn students away from the country. This used to only be done at universities. In more recent years, it has now spilled over into the greater society, we see that as an essential part of the “woke” doctrine that the left preaches which is now far beyond the universities.
What did the three major networks do with this poll? As Newsbusters notes, most spiked it and didn’t even cover it, probably because it reflected so badly on Democrats.
Instead of reporting on their liberal ilk admitting they’d give up America, ABC’s World News Tonight spent part of their Monday newscast talking about a snowy weather forecast for the northeast. Yet, in their Tuesday show, correspondent Rebecca Jarvis reported on a different finding from that same “Quinnipiac poll showing 71 percent of Americans support banning Russian oil, even if it means higher prices here at the pump.”
On Tuesday’s CBS Evening News, they were too busy spreading misinformation about Florida’s parental rights legislation and touting a teacher’s strike in Minneapolis.
As for NBC Nightly News, they whined about Florida’s surgeon general recommending kids not get vaccinated on Monday. And continued their crusade against a Texas school district they’ve been stalking since 2018 with accusations of racism and bigotry, on Tuesday.
However, this shows that there is a greater crisis of faith within the Democratic Party. JFK was the party of the Democratic Party. It believed in America and held all the basic ideas about America. The Republicans believe the same. Now it’s people like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) who attack the very basis on which we were founded unless it serves her purposes.
As a society, we need to quickly recalibrate in order to address this. We needed it immediately. We have many now awake and fighting the “woke” effort. But we’re already decades late because the indoctrination has been going on for a long time.
