With Donald Trump, this all has come to an end. Donald Trump is America’s first wartime president in the Culture War.

This summarizes the past 8 months in one sentence. Great read.(For those of us who actually read the articles on which we comment)

Love Evan Sayet. He's an expert at exposing Leftist lies. Thanks for the post, Kaslin.

I heard commentary the other night on YourVoice with Bill Mitchell.  I think it was co-host Adam Gingrich who made the key point:
    Presidents like Nixon, Truman, and the Roosevelts were actually quite combative with their opponents and the press.

So the whole notion of a diplomatic and soft spoken President is a fabrication which the Never-Trumpers and fake news have been pushing -- as in the Time magazine (March 2016) story in the picture here.

My theory is that Kennedy got the ball rolling with this royal "presidential style" nonsense and I explored that in my Sept 2016 vanity: Killing Camelot: How Trump is Smashing the Style of the Political Elite with his Character & Honesty

Reagan fit the royal presidential style, but he was a former Hollywood actor and radio announcer, not a New York businessman.  Reagan stood his ground with the Deep State, but Trump's goal is to destroy the Deep State -- a much tougher mission.

And Trump has shown plenty of diplomacy in his meetings and speeches in the Middle East, Poland and the G20.

When you consider the stakes to our country, Trump's combative style is justified.  And more than that: it's working!

Thanks for reading it for me, and posting a short summary. The time I would have spent reading it, I can now spend posting about it. It’s the FReeper way!
