To me, this is THE important takeaway from the Trump TRiUMPh. (see what I did there?)
ReplyDeleteFirst order of business: No WWIII!!!
Nice remarks coming out of China also. May the honeymoon last.
I'm skeptical of the length of the honeymoon. But, if he normalizes relations worldwide, he could be...good?
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile, warmongers all over the West now hate Trump more than ever. Especially those indirectly involved in the Ukraine coup.
ReplyDeleteThis, his stance on gun control (guns are the last line of defense against full blown tyranny), and his opposition to the greatest threat to the West --cultural Marxism-- is why he is preferable over Hillary Clinton.
Not worthy of a vote (unlike what others like Block and Raimondo seem to think), but simply preferable.
