The Left is Dependent Upon Cowardice

Time Text
LeBron James is a fool.
That's all he is.
He's just a fool.
He feels in danger.
I mean, I'll tell you, this is truly...
It's like more and more Americans are reveling in being a wimp.
LeBron James fears for his life when he leaves his house.
Oh, boy.
Look, the number of Americans who are scared out of their wits and with regard to COVID.
People, people, I see people walking alone in the street outdoors with a mask on.
It's...
Thank you.
It is not the land of the free because of the left, and it's not the home of the brave because of the left.
The left is dependent upon cowardice.
And they hate the strong.
Cowards hate the strong.
The indecent hate the decent.
The cowards hate the strong and the brave.
Send kids to school, they might get COVID. To which the answer is, so what?
So what?
They might get the flu.
You tell somebody, I mean, well-meaning people that I know.
This is not abstract.
You know, virtually no kid has died.
Oh, but there is one kid who died.
One kid who died?
The devastation in the world As a result of this, I was speaking to a friend who's a member of a major symphony orchestra.
His income has been cut in half.
He doesn't know if he could keep his house.
For no good reason.
What should we have done?
What I said in the beginning.
You could take a look.
Not only hear my broadcast, you could read my columns.
We should have isolated those who were most at risk.
And the rest of the world should have gone on as normal.
That's what should have happened.
That was the president's instinct.
But, of course, every death would have been attributed to him.
They attribute it to him anyway.
But imagine if we didn't...
But anyway, I'm not sure he had the right.
He can't tell.
I don't think he could tell the state.
Governor what to do.
I don't know why governors have the right.
That I cannot eat in a restaurant to this day, to this day, September or whatever, we're at 14th?
15th?
and if you're listening let's see yeah if you're listening in Australia it's the 16th I can't either in a restaurant today It's not legal.
And then they open up places and they go, 10% capacity.
The gyms can open up with 10% capacity.
As someone I know who works in a gym said, that just covers the staff.
The staff can show up.
That's correct.
What happened to the idea of, folks, here are the risks.
Have a good day.
I would show up.
I'm theoretically in the vulnerable population.
It's monstrous what has happened.
you The lives that have been devastated out of irrational fear, it's a new America.
It's not true, the land of the free and the home of the brave.
The left is squashed bravery and freedom.
Wow.
LeBron James.
That LeBron James is a spokesman for anything is mind-boggling.
Man plays basketball well.
That's it.
That's great.
Anyway, it's a new thing.
It's happened over the course of time.
Fame gives you credibility.
That's a new thing in American life.
People didn't look to baseball players or actors for insights into life.
They looked to them for great acting, which is wonderful, and great athleticism, which is also wonderful.
But with the war against wisdom that has taken place since the 50s, now fame...
It is enough to be taken seriously by the media, which is composed largely of sheep.
It is distressing.
There are a lot of terrific Americans, but of course they're not covered by the mainstream media.
Ask your liberal, not even leftist, ask your liberal.
Relative.
If they've ever heard of Larry Elder, or Candace Owens, or Tom Sowell, or any...
Ask them, can you name a black conservative thinker?
Isn't it astonishing that they can't?
The hermetically sealed world of the left.
Thank you.
Thank you.
So anyway, it's a good thing that Alex Villanueva did.
Sheriff of LA County.
LeBron James.
By the way, James is foolish for not coming up with an award.
I mean, $175,000 means nothing to him.
And he would have such goodwill, and it would show that he doesn't believe that police officers should be shot dead.
Leftist rhetoric makes you think police should be shot dead.
If they're really using their strength to kill blacks who are innocent, I could see why people would think, oh, it's a good idea if police die.
Oh, we love the police.
