"Here is the indigestible truth
for the Democrats. Donald Trump has had the most successful first term
of any president in memory, maybe ever.
"His policies brought unemployment
down to the lowest rate in decades, Among black and other minority
populations, it was the lowest ever—ever. Wages, especially wages at the
lower end, were rising, prescription drug prices were falling, and
manufacturing was flooding back to the United States, a direct result of
Trump’s America First trade policies. He came to office promising to
lose two regulations for every new one enacted, but has managed to lose
nearly 20 regulations for every new one. His exploitation of America’s
energy resources have not only made the country energy independent, they
have made us a net exporter of energy."
"Trump has made extraordinary progress
on other fronts as well, from his hundreds of judicial appointments to
reducing the flow of illegal immigration by 90 percent. On the cultural
front, he has defanged the tyranny of Title IX despotism in colleges and
universities and, just a day or two ago, he issued an executive order instructing the Office of Management and Budget to “identify and eliminate any trace of ‘critical race theory’ in the federal government.”
"It would be difficult to overstate
the significance of this order. Critical race theory is the
pseudo-academic version of identity politics, lending a suitable
polysyllabic veneer of obfuscation to the brutish Marxoid and
America-hating ideologies of Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and kindred
sites of festering discontent." -

When Wish Replaces Thought
by Roger Kimball
Don’t you just love Paul Krugman? One of loudest of the many anti-Trump hysterics employed by the New York Times, the former economist has been a reliable source of comedy at least since election night 2016. Once the worst was certain and the world learned that Donald Trump had indeed been elected president of the United States, Krugman pondered the markets, which had plunged overnight. “When might we expect them to recover?” he asked. “A first-pass answer is never . . . So we are very probably looking at a global recession, with no end in sight.”
What a card! I think we all deserve a Nobel Prize in economics. If Krugman can snag one, why not Stanley down at the bar? He says a lot of stupid things, too. Krugman never disappoints..........
