Trump-Haters May Have Revived Trump’s Presidential Hopes
Trump weathered the relentless wall-to-wall assault on him by being a rather successful president: illegal immigration and unemployment were almost eliminated, oil imports ended, and for the first time in any serious jurisdiction, the lower twenty percent of income-earners were gaining income in percentage terms more quickly than the top ten percent.
The new
administration has been unprecedentedly incompetent even to those of us who
feared the worst-millions of illegal migrants, sky-rocketing crime, inflation,
and deficits, a very unresponsive president reduced to insipid pleadings to
China and OPEC, a completely unfeasible vice president, a shambles in COVID
policy, and in Afghanistan the worst and most humiliating fiasco in the history
of the U.S. armed forces since General Hull surrendered Detroit to the
Canadians and British in 1812.
