Friends, kudos to President Trump, who tonight wisely addressed the nation directly, conveying a message of positivity and touting a sterling economic record that few Americans are remotely aware of. Trump shared numerous statistics documenting wage gains and price declines. Of course, Trump haters will scoff, but, for at least as long as Trump spoke, he was able to circumvent the talking heads whose soul purpose is to undermine and denigrate him, and thereby to counter lies with truth. I've often wondered why Trump doesn't make primetime speeches like this more often. Sure, they don't reach everyone, but if even a sliver of independents and persuadable voters tuned in, the upside could be substantial -- and, more importantly, Trump has literally nothing to lose by making the attempt. Here's hoping that we'll hear much more from our incomparable Commander-in-Chief in the next three years, and that Trump supporters will pick up where he left off, and spread the word that, on the economy, help is not only on the way -- it's already here!
Dr. Waddy from Jack: I agree completely with what you said above.
ReplyDeleteIt is probably futile to expect anything he says or does to accredit him to a reflexively disdainful faction of our polity. But such a presentation does incidentally provide some antidote to the ehh, hip shooting adventurism of some of his casual commentary. It is an honest manifestation of a great President.
He has been criticized even by supporters for remarks about Rob Reiner which are reasonably thought to be inappropriate. But an article in today's Town Hall quotes some of the vitriol and very frankly expressed hatred Reiner directed at Donald Trump : "I didn't like Bush but I hate Trump!" Yes, those now passed deserve deference but so does a dutiful President and for that President to express the fact that he was excoriated by Reiner and that he considered it counterproductive, is understandable ,I think. Our President is a human being with human feelings.
Dr. Waddy, the President affirmed the well supported conviction you have expressed and empirically supported, that our economy is in very promising shape. He is not a wizard or a Lenin , who could command instant change in an economy, the former only in fantasy, the latter in tyrannical and utterly ill conceived tyranny.
President Trump has laid a very experience driven, knowledgeable foundation for our country's return to its characteristic economic. vitality after its Marxist misuse by Biden's puppeteers. It is of course fundamental of the now far left commanded Dems and their casually detached Marxist wishers well to reflexively regard any economic well being in the U.S. to be proof of the consummate injustice and evil of our democratically imbued and sensibly tempered free enterprise essence. This, in the face of the utterly and finally convincing 20th century condemnation of proven guaranteed inhuman Marxism in its always hellish nature in actual command power.
President Trump is fully aware of this contradiction and is devoted to reaffirming the redeeming values with which we have achieved in this country a standard of living and justice the revelation of which would have filled the most perceptive and good willed thinkers of the past with astonished admiration. His speech was an affirmation of this firm intent (try doing what he is doing and enduring what he continues to endure at age 78!) and flies in the very face of his vicious castigators. Good for him ( and us)!
Ahh yes, tyranny is indeed tyrannical. Jack
