In a recent discussion, conservative commentator JD Rucker addressed the growing concern over the rise of a post-truth society and the encroachment of authoritarianism, particularly highlighting an incident where a Houston Astros fan was targeted for wearing a “Free Trump” shirt. Rucker emphasized the importance of standing up for one’s beliefs and protesting against these injustices to safeguard individual rights.

“What can we do to fight this post-truth society? What can we do to fight back because there’s discrimination there? The realities are being clouded,” Rucker began. He cited a recent incident as a prime example. “A perfect example happened very recently, where a fan, an Astros fan, was targeted, not because she exhibited any terroristic activities, not because she was suspicious, because she wore a ‘Free Trump’ shirt. That’s it.”

Rucker elaborated on the story, highlighting the unfair treatment of the fan. “A Houston Astros fan says she was forced to undergo additional screening because she wore a ‘Free Trump’ t-shirt at the ballpark. Teneea Tate said she was only allowed to enter Minute Maid Park after she covered up the shirt. She was a guest on my show. We are being silenced, and our rights are being taken from us. She wrote on Facebook, ‘Wake up, America. It’s happening everywhere.'”

According to Tate, the incident involved excessive scrutiny and threats from the stadium staff. “The ticket taker pulled her aside and directed her into an extensive metal detector scan for no apparent reason. They quickly phoned another person, telling them about my shirt and the seats I was in to keep an eye on her. They threatened to kick me out if I didn’t change or cover up my shirt because people get triggered.”

Rucker drew a sharp contrast between the treatment of Trump supporters and those of other political affiliations. “If it said ‘Free Hunter,’ if it said ‘Go, Joe,’ nothing would have happened. They’re not considered a threat. Meanwhile, these Hunter Biden allies, these Joe Biden supporters, they’re the ones actually out on the streets committing violent crimes… blocking traffic, causing havoc at college campuses.”

Rucker further critiqued the current political climate, suggesting that Democratic leadership is more concerned with optics than with genuine support for any cause. “They will be supportive of Joe Biden if he completely turns his back on Israel, which we think is going to happen before the 2024 election, as soon as they can figure out a way to do it without harming their relationship with Jewish voters here in America.”

Rucker concluded with a call to action, urging people to protest and stand up for their rights. “Fight back. You can do it. We can all do it. We can all protest. It’s not just about ‘Free Trump’ shirts. It’s not even just about Trump at all. Fight back.”
