Former White House aide Sebastian Gorka took aim at Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and progressive members of the Democratic Party in a new interview, asserting that former President Kennedy would not be welcome in the modern-day incarnation of his party.
In an interview airing Sunday on AM 970 in New York, Gorka tells "The Answer" host John Catsimatidis that a "hardcore, pro-nationalist" such as Kennedy would be unwelcome in the party.

I've said the same thing about JFK for a long time because of many of his quotes, for example, the one below from his inaugural address extolling the American Revolution, the principles of which are hated and despised by the leftist globalists in today's Democratic Party. --Ron W

DeleteHear! Hear! :)
DeleteJFK was also pro 2nd Amendment with a correct historical understanding of its primary purpose:
ReplyDelete"By calling attention to “a well regulated militia,” the “security” of the nation, and the right of each citizen “to keep and bear arms,” our founding fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny which gave rise to the Second Amendment will ever be a major danger to our nation, the Amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic civilian-military relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of his country. For that reason I believe the Second Amendment will always be important."
Modern leftists are now and would have been aghast at such a statement. Also two of his presidential contemporaries, Johnson and Nixon, we're both for draconian gun control. Johnson presided over the first big gun control bill in 1968 whereas the supposed conservative Nixon kept quiet about his anti-gun stance to keep his political constituency.

Thank you for the history. Caroline was a big horse fan when they lived close to us in Northern Virginia. She had good manners which you had better have where I grew up.:)
