Trump abdicates role as leader of free world because he doesn’t support American values
Fox News.com ^ | July 21, 2019 | Roger Fisk

For the first time since the end of World War I, the president of the United States is not the leader of the free world.

When the guns fell silent at the end of the Great War on Nov. 11, 1918, Europe was in ashes after more than four years of fighting. America was newly ascendant, a leader in manufacturing, science, military power and global influence – with a home front untouched by the destruction of war.

Our leading role as the most powerful and influential nation on Earth was solidified with our victory in World War II.

We never looked back -- until now.

America remains the cultural and political North Star for individuals around the globe and a magnet for immigrants. As a society we will carry the cultural torch for self-determination and the inherent rights of individuals everywhere.

In addition, the U.S. remains the most powerful nation on the planet.

An 0bama apparatchik weighs in with "helpful" advice. His boss was "really good at killing people" as I recall, not to mention shipping pallets of cash to Iranian terrorists, so I'd be pressing the soft pedal on "American values" if I were he.

He is not just a “never trumper, he’s a full blown projector for alinskyite DNC talking points.

Some nations that were once considered “free world” are no longer free, Trump is not their leader, and he wouldn’t want to be their leader.

Excellent point-no one in the early 1920’s saw Harding or Coolidge as leaders of the free world.

Alight, I'll bite, who does he think is the leader of the free world then? Surely someone’s the runner up usually who gained, right?

Yeah, I couldn't think of anyone either. And I doubt there's anyone in the world (aside from within our own country) who'd get a call from The President of the United States and who wouldn't immediately answer.

Chris Wallace gave Fat Nadler airtime today to bloviate about supposed evidence of misdemeanors that require impeachment.

A disgusting lot to be sure.

What about when the U.S. restricted immigration between 1924 and 1965? that was ok with the author, but the 1 million we took in last year was not?

Roger Fisk is a Democratic strategist who served in the Obama administration from 2009 to 2017 and was a senior communications and policy aide for Senator John Kerry.

Good grief!!!

I remember one time during the Obama administration Shep Smith (admittedly never-Trump) was forced to read something on the air that was just pure Jihadist propaganda. He did it, but made it very clear that he was doing it against his will. I have been seeing a major push Lefty propaganda wise and it is all over the place. Somebody is making a major push to break up the Trump coalition but what they dont take into account is that we lived through the Obama administration. We saw first hand what kind of genocidal scumbags these guys are. Their “reasons” arent reasons, but they sure do give us insight into the level of entitlement we are dealing with.

Fisk is thinking of the guy who went on an apology tour and abdicated all responsibility; obama.

Trump has gotten the reins back and is doing a good job for America and the world.

Sucks being mentally ill, a never Trumper, and/or a leftist but pardon me for repeating myself.
