The old axiom.........

1. Love us,
2. If not love, then respect us,
3. If not respect, then fear us.

Works for me.  The Dems seem to have graduated from the "Willy Loman School of Diplomacy."
"Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty." - Thomas Jefferson

"All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk!" -Ayn Rand
 
"Those that trust God with their safety must yet use proper means for their safety, otherwise they tempt Him, and do not trust Him.  God will provide, but so must we also." - Matthew Henry, Commentary on 2 Chronicles 32, from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

"These anti-gun fools are more dangerous to liberty than street criminals or foreign spies."--Theodore Haas, Dachau Survivor

Chase her.
Chase her even when she's yours.
That's the only way you'll be assured to never lose her.

To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.
We will make America strong again. We will make America proud again. We will make America safe again. And we will make America great again.
