Answer: Everything!<\/p>\n<h3>THE LEFT REVEALED<\/h3>\n<p>&#8220;I am sure that most individuals afflicted with a liberal mindset would be unable to name any particular goal for their beliefs. It is in many ways like a religion &#8230; a set of pre-defined attitudes and opinions by which they make decisions in life. Most often these attitudes and opinions are not of their own formation or arrived at through considered thought. Instead, they are learned from others&#8217; repeated pronouncements of them. Those making these statements often have come to learn them in the same way. Much the same as fables and Bible stories are passed down from generation to generation. Unfortunately <a href=\"http:\/\/godfatherpolitics.com\/nazism-fascism-communism-socialism-dominating-americas-universities\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">many of the &#8220;proclaimers&#8221; are entrenched in the schools and colleges<\/a> and their views are imbedded in impressionable minds not yet skilled in giving these ideas critical examination.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The true agenda of the left is statism or control of the society by a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.the-american-interest.com\/2016\/07\/10\/when-and-why-nationalism-beats-globalism\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">small elite group<\/a>. They are a patient lot and willing to achieve their goals over a long period of time through seemingly minor and incremental changes in the laws and attitudes of the nation. Through the constant hammering of emotion driven issues \u2014 education, the environment, child safety, gun control, nuclear war, etc. \u2014 they gradually affect the laws and policies that govern our society. All the while moving us closer to their goal of a nation of serfs working for the benefit of the powerful few that will control every aspect of a citizen&#8217;s life.&#8221; &#8211; <em>Quoting TYSK on a website named <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tysknews.com\/TyskWorks\/the_liberal_left.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><em>tysknews.com<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>TRUE BLOODED AMERICANS TO THE RESCUE<\/h3>\n<p>Thank God for our Americans who know what America is truly about and voted for Donald Trump.
