Hadrian’s Wisdom: Why America Needs a Wall bit.ly/2RlDSAx
In short, Rome was the world’s first country—a land of laws inhabited by loyal citizens. It was not until Rome devolved into multifarious ethno-religious tribes that she finally fell.
America’s Founders envisioned our nation as a land of laws upheld by loyal citizens—America was a new Rome.
And like Rome, one of America’s greatest strengths was in its exceptional ability to turn non-Americans into Americans, to create unity out of discord, and from this unity, strength.
This is no longer happening, and this is why President Trump must build a wall.
In addition to keeping migrants out, America needs a wall to show everyone—be they American or foreign—that America is not merely a collection of competing individuals and tribes.
It is not a whipping-boy for the military-industrial complex. It is not a plaything for globalists. And it is not a goody-bag for Third-World migrants to pillage at their pleasure.
Instead, America is a land of laws inhabited by loyal citizens who will defend to the death every grain of sand and every blade of grass behind the wall.
Why? Because each is a part of America, and America is sacred. Many Americans—and most of the world—forgot this.
We need to remind them. Build the wall.
We need to remind them. Build the wall.
