I did excerpt the op-ed because articles by VDH have to be excerpted. That’s why

Townhall either does or does not have to be excerpted.
It certainly isn’t dependent upon who wrote it.

I think you’re lying.

But if there are a lot of clips I haven’t seen where Trump took responsibility for his bankruptcies, his failed marriages, expressed regret for his mistakes, etc., I stand corrected. And Hanson should be corrected too.

I haven't seen them. To DTs credit - those that create businesses do so out of assumptions that there will be a positive return-on-investment. Most new businesses fail. The failure is usually due to one or more false premise(s) or assumptions.

The successful learn from the mistakes and it benefits them. I wish that DT would say that starting new businesses is risky and that he benefits from his failures. I dont think I am alone in wishing this small measure of humbleness. It would make me like him a lot more.

As one who has also posted VDH articles over the years, and having some of them excerpted after the fact by the Mods, it is my understanding that articles by VDH indeed do require excerpting.

But I could be wrong ... and still not be lying.

The last paragraph could help Trump.

There are a lot of deluded low information voters that like Obama so with that comparison some will think Oh OK Trump is like Obama I’ll vote for him.

Also, GWB and the Republicans made such a mess that even one as brilliant and talented as Obozo couldn’t fix things in eight years.

Let's not forget the “Principle of Policy Lags” of the Rat Party:

Bill Clinton comes in, as Economy improves, Clinton gets credit. Not prior President Bush.

Obama comes in as economy tanks, Prior Prez Geo. W Bush gets blame. Not current '0ne' Barry.
