In our age of sexually transmitted diseases, as well as virally transmitted ones, it’s a wonder the epidemiologists haven’t sought to ban sex, although perhaps the notion of “safe sex,” of always using prophylactic protection, is a step in that direction.

It’s becoming harder and harder to resist the notion that the First Amendment is wasted on clowns supposedly covering the Trump administration. Between their posturing for the camera and their reflexive oppositional stance to any initiatives associated with Trump, it’s difficult to see these “Guardians of the First Amendment” as anything but petulant adolescents.

Conrad Black: The new Democratic pre-electoral chorus is already audibly arising like a Wagnerian finale from the largely hidden choir. President Trump, they intone, bungled this and must be investigated for his incompetence which is costing countless American lives.

Unless you’re hopelessly blinded by “Trump derangement syndrome,” you have to admit that President Trump has become a pretty good “war general.” He’s made several huge strategic decisions, unleashed trillions of federal dollars, put together important public-private partnerships, delegated lots of power to governors and surrounded himself with some of the best experts in the country.

There is no serious person today that is addressing what one could call woke concerns. These include, but are not limited to, concerns about pronouns or labels-mislabeling in general, white male patriarchy, social justice warrior activism, or spending on a myriad of dubious woke monetary programs that do not help people in economic need.

Conrad Black: No one can say he has not moved swiftly and decisively to increase testing ability, distribute possible ameliorative medication, raise the country’s supply of ventilators and distribute them fairly, and increase hospital capacity.

The virus poses decidedly less risk and disability to younger working populations who are most essential to America’s economic recovery and restoration of social lifestyle normalcy.

When Democrats now scream at Trump for respirators, masks, gowns and other materials we have to ask —why didn’t the Obama administration and Congress order them under their watch?

Despite FDA inaction, it’s still quite fair to thank President Donald Trump for initiating a major chloroquine clinical trial that — bureaucratic intransigence notwithstanding — might result in saving thousands if not millions of American lives.

Democrats (and alas some Republicans) have threatened to ram medical price controls through in an emergency coronavirus-relief bill. At a time when our healthcare system is so overtaxed that we’ve had to mobilize the Navy to help, the plan is to get the government’s claws into that system more than they already are.

Biden and other American liberals refuse to mention that China’s communist government is singularly responsible for the coronavirus pandemic. Chinese officials punished and silenced doctors who identified the virus in December and tried to warn about the seriousness of the disease.

Wayne Allan Root: The CDC reports that this virus could kill up to 1.7 million Americans. Are you aware this same government agency projected Ebola could infect over 1 million in Africa? It wound up affecting under 30,000. Why are we letting government bureaucrats scare us to death?

Conrad Black: In the United States, the antics of the Democratic politicians and media grasping at straws more desperately than ever to try to prevent the long-unthinkable reelection of the president, have exacerbated the problem. So, unfortunately, has the president’s effort to minimize the problem, an impossible task given the uncertain extent of the danger and the fear-mongering of the president’s enemies.

The “Chicken Little” tone of the coronavirus coverage is enough to make us wonder if this coverage is just a different approach to the “news” media’s obsession with getting rid of Trump.

Biden is a crappy version of Hillary Clinton circa 2016. He’s another old, corrupt, establishment hack with the support of Democrat party bosses. But the voters won’t get excited.

It’s true that the Fed cannot stop the coronavirus from harming the supply side of the economy. It can’t rescue the travel industry or make up for lost work days. What it can do is prevent a supply-side hit from generating an additional demand-side one.

Bernard Kerik: While it’s good that Greitens has been exonerated, the people of Missouri were robbed of their governor…Let the word go forth as a warning to all patriotic Americans: this is what the left, political insiders, and some member of the fake news media will do: they will commit crimes to drive conservative outsiders from office. The proof is in Missouri, but the fight has to be won across the country.

With the growing support for Bloomberg among blacks, it is pretty evident that a Democrat can do or say just about anything negative about blacks and be forgiven. A Republican making the same or similar comments would be called a racist and condemned.

Conrad Black: The Democrats are clinging to the inevitable pious fraud that Donald Trump is a compromised president because he was impeached. The Democrats, after a spurious investigation in which the president had none of the constitutionally guaranteed rights of a defendant or the defenses available by precedent to presidents who are the subjects of such investigations, charged Trump with acts that are not impeachable.

An idea has been floated by Republican leaders to pass a resolution that would fundamentally alter the impeachment record of President Donald Trump. The means that would be used to bring about the auspicious outcome is a legislative approach commonly known as expungement.

He’ll get an applause every time he walks into a Montauk restaurant, but even that acclaim won’t last. Romney was always a man of indistinct ideology, an opportunist who, in 1984, easily threw Ronald Reagan over the side as a tribute to Ted Kennedy and to suck up to the liberal Boston media. Romney’s courage has always been in doubt.

Bernie Sanders has a serious shot at being the Democrat presidential nominee. Many polls have him leading in both Iowa and New Hampshire. That’s disturbing. That’s like handing America over to Castro.

President Trump’s trade revolution is only just beginning. Before the ink was even dry on several groundbreaking new trade deals, the president was already negotiating the next wave of international agreements to further boost American prosperity.

As President Trump’s foreign policy successes mount, an increasingly despondent foreign policy establishment is discovering its own blindness.
