It Starts With a Lie

Van Jones said Trump’s election was a “whitelash” after the 2016 presidential race. Everyday since, liberal pundits have called Trump and his voters, half the country, “racist.” The overuse has deflated the term; it no longer packs a wallop. Since the Democrat-media complex needs bigotry to play their Race Card Game, they invented new terms, “white supremacist” and “white nationalist.” Changing terms, however, doesn’t change the game. The problem for the Democrats is that game is over and they lost. I’ll show you how. First we need to understand the rules of the game.

The game begins with some inciting event, either real or imagined, to get the ball rolling. The event needs to involve a person of color, preferably black, and an evil white person. Is that redundant? Race may or may not play a role. That doesn’t matter since the narrative always replaces the facts. The Trayvon Martin event, the Rodney King beating and Michael Brown’s shooting are good examples. We’ll examine each one.

The next step is the media ramps up coverage. Democrat politicians and so-called civil rights leaders fill the airwaves with nonstop commentary about “racist” America. It’s a smear campaign. The campaign has three goals. The first is to convince viewers that similar events happen daily, thus racist America. The second goal is to either get some Democrat into, or some Republican out of, office. Finally, the big goal, which is convincing conservatives to shut up. Want proof?

It is Deadly Serious

Trayvon Martin became a household name when a ‘white person’ ‘murdered’ him. A grieving President Obama said wistfully, “If I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon.” A picture of a 12-year old Trayvon Martin filled television screens for weeks. However, Trayvon was 17 when the inciting event occurred. George Zimmerman was the ‘white person’s’ name. Except George is Hispanic, not white. No matter; desperate to keep the game going, CNN declared George a “White Hispanic.” Try doing that, Fox News.

The innocent victim, Martin, would later be discovered to be, in the words of Britney Spears, “not that innocent.” Shortly before his demise he was suspended 10-days for having marijuana and pipe on school grounds. It was his third suspension. In 2011, a camera caught Martin defacing school lockers. A police officer later found a watch, wedding bands and earrings in his backpack. Many of Martin’s social media posts are too vile to repeat. No one is suggesting Martin’s death wasn’t tragic, just that he was a pawn.

Did did you know Rodney King had two other black men in his car the night he was beaten? Neither one of them were beaten by police. Seems King didn’t want to go back to jail for parole violation so he led police on a 115 mph car chase. King also beat women, drove drunk and robbed stores with tire irons. The L.A. riots left 63-dead, 2,383 injured, 3,000 businesses destroyed and $1 billion in damages. King was also a pawn in the game.

It Is Over For Democrats

Michael Brown, we were told, was excited to be going to college. Perhaps. The Obama Justice Department, however, determined he was also an armed robber. In addition to that, the “Hands up, don’t shoot” narrative, as reported ad nauseam by liberal media, never happened. It was always a lie. As a result of that lie, a series of riots ensued. In the end one lay dead, 16 injured, 321 arrested, and millions in property was destroyed. Michael Brown was also a pawn in The Race Game. Unfathomably, he still is.

On Friday and Saturday, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Rep. Tim Ryan(D-Ohio), Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), former Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-Texas), Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, all vying to be the Democrat’s presidential nominee, tweeted refuted or false claims. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt) wrote: “Michael Brown should be alive today. Five years after his death, we must finally end police violence against people of color.”

Trump was elected partly because the voters are sick of this “racist” America nonsense. Too many people know the Democrat’s race-baiting game is based on lies. The issue has been exhausted. The Democrats use young black men’s deaths to lie about and condemn America because they have nothing else. They cannot debate, reason, or convince voters their ideas will improve lives. The Race Game is over and, while the Democrats don’t get it yet, they lost.
