Can we please just agree to something here?
President Trump knows more about how the nations of the
world will respond to tariffs than the “collective” wisdom of the rest of
elective politics — combined.
Yes?
Forget how uniquely inspiring he was on the international
stage at the 75th Memorial of D-Day. Forget how Nancy Pelosi finally lost
the President’s respect and got branded as “nervous.” Forget how regal he
appeared with the royalty of the British Crown, or how easily he dispensed with
the Mayor of London and the non-existent “hordes” of protestors.
Last week, while mostly overseas being madly “Presidential”
on the biggest stage, for historic times, President Trump made major headway on
an issue his opponents felt they had held him in check on.
Making more progress on his signature issue than all of the
previous Presidents of the modern era—combined.
Including Reagan!
He did so even though the same whiney GOP members and
Democrats dismayed at the “outcome,” and literally lying press outlets couldn’t
even bring themselves to acknowledge his historic and landmark breakthrough.
In fact, they went so far as to attempt to make it appear as
though he had capitulated on a crisis of his own making.
By week’s end, not only are sections of his promised wall
being built, activated by his executive actions, separate from that of
Congress, but now he has a partner in stopping the flow of “paid for” caravans,
purposefully funded to assault the southern border.
Here’s just some of this huge win:
1.
6000 troops on the southern border
of Mexico—slowing and stopping the flow of unchecked migrants from central and
South America.
2.
Require asylum application in the
first nation of travel. No more picking choosing. If you’re from Honduras
headed north you have to apply in Guatemala. In Guatemala — Mexico. Thus
de-incentivizing the caravans from the beginning.
3.
The right to require illegal
immigrants to remain in Mexico until the US Border Patrol and Customs can
properly process an asylum claim, including but not limited to the vetting of
identity and nation of origin.
4.
The right to immediately begin
returning to Mexico those who have been processed at the southern border but
have been found to have insufficient identification, problems with their
stories, and likely traveling with “family members” they are unrelated to.
5.
Mexico agreeing to use their law
enforcement forces to go after coyotes, kidnappers, and human trafficking
amongst the ranks of migration groups and individuals.
6.
Mexico agreeing to freeze the assets
of the two dozen or so primary funding sources providing the monies to create
and sustain the caravans headed to the U.S.
7.
None of it costs us a dime!
In getting these and additional points of agreement in
writing the President has effectively established the entire nation of Mexico
as a buffer zone to assist our daily overwhelmed forces at the border.
By encouraging and enlisting the help of a new partner in
the enforcement of American immigration policy, the President will have
single-handedly helped the populations of two nations simultaneously making
both Mexico and America safe again.
For the last number of days Senate “Republicans” had seen
their spines turn to jelly as the Mitt Romneys and others opined about their frets and concerns of enacting
additional tariffs.
A Bloomberg reporter bemoaned the impact of the new tariffs’ impact
“already” being experienced by the American tax-payer (*coughing* “huh liar”
*cough*.)
Andrea Mitchell of NBC tweeted at the “relief” being given various groups once the
President called off the tariffs. But she made zero mention of the actual
assistance Mexico capitulated to in striking the deal.
The 2020 field feigned dismay at the President’s “self-created
crisis” and his utter supposed failure in resolving it, thus requiring him to
pull back his threat.
And after already stating this week that she felt the
President belonged in prison, “Nervous Nancy” (Pelosi) attempted to demean the President as a bully who only
gets his way with threats and intimidation.
She sought to imply as much even though it was Mexican
administration members that had bee-lined it to Washington DC to get a deal
hammered out before the President would return from Europe for several more
days.
The keystone cops routine of idiot establishment
Republicans, dishonest and dismayed Democrats, and fraudulent fake press
printing fake outcomes of tariffs that never even went into effect would be
comical if it weren’t so stomach-churning.
These people deserve to be ridiculed and run out of their
professions. They no longer work in the interest of the American public.
And that should be a requirement—at a minimum—of getting to
serve the American people.
