Republican leaders’ faux-outrage over Olympian Gwen Berry’s protest at the trials must be used to point out that they are the unpatriotic immoral ones.
Republican faux-outrage must not be tolerated
Republicans are trying to get the upper hand as their continued policy and moral blunders accumulate. They are trying to use the Gwen Berry story to rehabilitate their un-patriotism. But that does not hold water. Berry is trying to make a better America with her protest. They are trying to create an oppressive America for most.
A hammer thrower who will represent the U.S. next month at the Olympics and who turned her back to the American flag during the playing of the national anthem this weekend says she feels “set up” by U.S. Track & Field.
Gwen Berry turned away from the flag Saturday while the anthem played as she received her third-place medal during the Olympic trials in Oregon. She later draped a T-shirt that read “activist athlete” over her head.
Democrats and Progressives must use Republican faux-outrage about the Olympian’s act to highlight GOP Jan 6 insurrection & flag desecration and much more.
- Republican Trump-driven sycophants unpatriotic attempted a coup/insurrection on the United States of America.
- Republican Trump-driven sycophants violently attacked and killed police officers.
- Republican Trump-driven sycophants used the U.S. flag and polls to beat those defending the Capitol.
- Republican leaders affected the deaths of thousands of Americans by denying them the Medicaid Expansion to the ACA.
- Republican leaders continued austerity as huge tax cuts given to the rich caused collapsing infrastructure that has killed many.
- Republican leaders botched the response to the COVID-19 pandemic that killed over 600,000 Americans.
- Republican leaders un-patriotically colluded with the Russians and North Koreans, a clear and present danger.
- Republican leaders did not support police reform to prevent the murders of innocent people of color by cops.
We must lean into the fight. Morality, empathy, humanity, and patriotism is on our side.
