You SHOULD understand, better than this ! I've already been effusive enough, on other threads and at other times, about how it is that I come to think as I do. I'm conscious that in answering you, I'm covering old ground.
Oh, well. Here we go again, then ....
My society's history is different to yours. Politically, it's already swung to such extremes, known such stresses and strains, that you've not only not experienced any equivalent of, but probably would struggle to even imagine.
I argue against the Left, be it my country's version of it, or yours. But with me, it isn't just that I hold a view which makes me THINK I'm right: I absolutely KNOW with CERTAINTY that I'm right. It isn't a matter of debate with me, but certain knowledge of being right.
I know this: the Left has its worldview, and its political imperatives, and it'll sink to any level, do anything at all, to win through with them. It's intensely propagandist, and will insist its propaganda succeeds. If you're anti-Islam for whatever reason, you're automatically bigoted and racist, and all proof to the contrary is dismissed and subject to hate campaigns.
The Left is extremely pro-Union, and vice versa. Unions here have done enormous damage, to trading infrastructure, peoples' livelihoods, and we needed Margaret Thatcher to pass laws just to keep them in check !
Regardless -- twice in our history, Union leaders have worked to depose lawfully elected Conservative Governments. Arthur Scargill tried it in 1984, but failed. Earlier, Ted Heath was successfully deposed in early 1974 (the Three Day Working Week ... look it up !), Labour were elected ... and within two years, we knew 26 percent inflation and a devaluation of the Pound.
So, tell me, Kath: does America have equivalents of this, in its history ? AND, isn't it a GOOD thing when you elect a President, and Administration, who'd never in a million years stand for any such destruction being so much as threatened against American society ??
I know, repeat, KNOW, that the Left's influence must be defeated. I know what you'll suffer if it isn't. Yes, I'll 'rah-rah' my support for President Trump, Kath ... because, without realising it, you need a President of his standing.
Or would you rather America suffered what my society has done, before you come to see that I might actually be justified ??
I celebrate that America hasn't suffered what the UK has. I have no wish whatever to see that it risks doing so.
I invite you to agree with me that it shouldn't.
