I read this last night. As usual Codevilla is right on the mark. Looks like he is getting a lot of flak in comments, so he must be right over the target. He is one of two people I always pay attention to, the other being Victor Davis Hanson. I’ve been reading his analysis for more than 30 years, and he is invariably correct in his assessments, even when I do not like them. This is not one of those instances as I have noticed many of the same data points.
Angelo Codevilla’s remarks could very well have been recitation from Frederic Bastiat’s The Law. Every point he made in describing what we are faced with can be found in that work. The truth of the matter is far too many cannot see the forest for the trees so-to-speak and allow loyalty to a candidate to cloud their thinking. I add only that Bastiat indicated revolution was the eventual end result of our inattention.
