This quote from JFK never gets old

[DeeDeeNY]

“If by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people-their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights and their civil liberties-someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal", then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.”
― John F. Kennedy, Profiles in Courage

3. From his inaugural address

If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich

4. That is the way a U.S. President is SUPPOSED to speak

5. We have gotten so accustomed to the gangster talk of Trump that we have forgotten how a

real statesman should sound.

6. Americans still remembered the Depression and FDR's New Deal.

"Socialism is a scare word they've hurled at every advance the people have made. Socialism is what they called public power, social security, deposit insurance, and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for anything that helps all people." - Harry Truman, 1952

7. Trump is so mentally far gone

in one rally he calls us all Communists, in another he calls us Socialists

Like most Trumphumper voters, they, as well as Trump, probably can't even give you the definition of either word.......
