Getting ‘stealthed’ by the Democrat Party

-

Our citizenry has been “stealthed” by the Democrat Party. Those who read David White’s recent letter get the gist. (Or refer to “https://www.dictionary. com/e/slang/stealthing/”

“Here’s the deal” (plagiarizi­ng a phrase from our plagiarizi­ng president.) As the Communists and Socialists gained influence and control in/of the former Democrat Party, they have been increasing­ly bold, clever, deceptive, and successful in capturing the minds, freedoms and assets of many. They’ve promoted things like “equality” and “diversity” as something to which we must strive. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to be equal to those living in squalor on the “Streets of San Francisco” or Caracas. I don’t want us to be divided or “united” under a flag that has a hammer and sickle. We can make sure that won’t happen by never again voting for a candidate who has a “D” next to their name. (Yes, I’m guilty of having soberly done that!)

California Democrats have, for years, been reducing our freedoms and collective wealth in ways too numerous to list. Examples: Excusing irresponsi­bility; encouragin­g/promoting lawlessnes­s; indoctrina­ting our children in the schools; increasing or establishi­ng new taxes. We can change this by electing local and regional authoritie­s and politician­s who will utilize the same methods used by the Democrats: ignore the laws we don’t like. Examples: turn over undocument­ed residents to Federal authoritie­s; abstain from enforcing onerous gun control laws; remove “ethnic studies” and CRT dogma from curriculum.

Getting “stealthed” is bad enough. Let’s not get “Baured” (https://www.si.com/ mlb/2021/08/06/trevor-bauerleave-extended-fourth-timemore-text-messages-surface).
