I had an interesting discussion with a professional this weekend who defined herself as liberal. She said, I bet you’re one of those MAGA freaks aren’t you?
I asked her to explain what she meant and then I just listened. After she finished the typical fakenews media Democrat talking points, I said I bet you we have a lot more in common in our beliefs then you realize.
I began to ask her questions as to whether she loves her kids, wants the best for them, believes that her country should focus on protecting her kids first as well as other American children, and whether she had a problem with our politicians sending money all over the world to places like Ukraine, when we have a vast poverty crisis here in our inner cities and cannot even take care of our war veterans properly.
She agreed with me on all of these points. At the end of our discussion, she said, I guess our political views divide us more than they should. I explained that even though I’m a registered Republican, there are many problems with the Republican political machine and both Republican and Democrat politicians and large party donors are focused on globalist policies which enrich their own bank accounts. I explained that they have ulterior motives to keep the masses divided along lines that are political, racial, financial, etc.
I explained the uniparty system and told her that I support America First because I believe that’s in the best interest of my children, my future grandchildren, my local community, and my fellow countrymen as a whole.
After I explained it from this perspective, she was on board by the end of the conversation.
The point of the story is to encourage discussion with people who define themselves as liberal by asking questions and listening, and then find the common ground on which we all agree. The vast majority will realize there are far more essential day to day issues that unite us as Americans than divide us.
