Starnes: The Silent Majority Is Mad as Hell

“Hello, I’m Todd Starnes. Violence broke out over the weekend at several Donald Trump campaign rallies. Left-wing thugs battled with police in Chicago and St. Louis. One even tried to storm the stage at a rally in Dayton, Ohio. But instead of blaming the professional hooligans, the political chattering class blame Mr Trump. 

Senator Marco Rubio went so far as to liken Mr. Trump to a third world strongman. But the person responsible for fomenting political unrest is not Donald Trump — it’s President Obama. For the past seven and a half years this man has been stoking division and discord. You want to talk about creating controversy? Fine, let’s talk about. Baltimore and Ferguson, Missouri and Trayvon Martin. 

President Obama is the one who told his followers ‘If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun.’ That’s what he said. I don’t recall too many Republicans getting upset over that remark. Many conservative pundits still do not understand why Americans are flocking to Donald Trump. They seem bewildered that we’ve ignored establishment overlords like Mitt Romney and the uppity-ups at the National Review. 

So for the sake of all you Republicans in name only, let me explain what’s going on here. The folks who pay the bills in this country are fed up. We’re tired of being called racists and homophobic and xenophobic. The silent majority is mad as hell — and we’re not going to take it anymore. I am Todd Starnes.”
