Blasting With Boyles
OPINION
After watching Donald Trump run the table in November and knowing or believing that what Trump is about to do is to really turn over the apple cart and try to straighten out the mess that we looked to for guidance, i.e. Washington, D.C. The movement has been dubbed MAGA. Make America Great Again.
I propose MDGA — Make Denver Great Again.
Anyone of us who has lived in this city for any period longer than 10 years and believes that things are running smoothly and going our way is either out of their minds or consuming copious amounts of the legal weed. People are fed up and like many American voters when will Denver voters scream enough is enough.
Donald Trump was forgiven so many challenges to his career from the New York charges to the overrunning of the Capitol, and you understand the list goes on. But our city Denver, that once was so beautiful and so safe and made fun of as a cow town, has now turned into a total realignment of what’s socially acceptable.
This City has been run by Democrats and we’re not talking about the Bill McNichols old school Jack Kennedy Democrats, but progressive quasi-Trotsky-ites who have allowed the Queen City of the Plains to become the city dump for convicted felons, drug addicts, sexual predators, and non-citizens.
We have an opportunity right now in Denver to stop this. Until around 2000, Denver Democrats and Republicans shared many policy positions. But in this last 20 plus years the insanity of Denver’s management on gun control, the environment, and immigration, and many other things that Denver citizens, if they are aware under these circumstances, realize this is a death knell that sits right around the corner waiting for me and you.
We seemingly have a worthless media, the city fathers, and this Mayor who, in a series of absolutely terrible mayors, takes the cake. Spending his media time always dressed like Robert Kennedy with rolled up sleeves and pulled down tie, who seems to travel with journalists and academics who not only came out supporting Vice President Harris, but seemingly always this Mayor’s political madness.
And this rally and cry in Denver of why would intelligent people support Donald Trump? These are the people who don’t understand that this city is slipping into darkness, and people watching America seemingly do the same voted for Donald Trump. Basic law, this mayor, and political and media outlets welcome with open arms more drug addicts and illegals, remember that basic 101 rule, subsidize anything, and you’ll get more of it.
Denver Public Schools have become a clown show. The Denver cops have become social diversity warriors. As far as I’m concerned, the media has lost its franchise. We all better wake up.
These people seemingly undermine our Constitution one Amendment at a time. I was a lifelong democrat but this attitude that’s emerged that runs this city I simply cannot relate to, and I don’t want to be called stupid because I don’t think they’re smart. It’s the emperor’s new clothes. I’m serious about this. There must be a program that begins with let’s make Denver great again. We need the candidates; we need the ability for the electorate to overlook the failures and the lives of men and women who legitimately want to change this City’s course. The democratic coalition that runs Denver must be destroyed.
And out of the ashes like the phoenix we have to see a renewal regardless of the candidate. Saving this city, and perhaps even the state, is a far greater task than whether or not someone was painted black face in high school. A lot of the national issues don’t play out on the local level. Interest rates and electric bills and gasoline and cable fees going up can’t be changed at Colfax and Broadway.
But so much more can. Please, we have the next two years, let’s take it back from them.
So, who in Denver will step up? I got my list. What’s yours?
