Trump Is Playing the Long Game with State of the Union Deferral

Townhall

This very behavior—letting her have her way for this chapter—is deliciously counterintuitive, disarming the critics who berate Trump as unable to restrain his bullying instincts. Now, not only has he offered DACA protections which are a worthy compromise to secure wall funding, he has now yielded when the world expected him to double down. 

The Media’s BuzzFeed and Covington Disasters

Townhall

The last few days have been absolutely terrible for the “mainstream media.” The myth that they tried to build for themselves after the 2016 election — that the American people were too prone to misinformation — utterly collapsed under the weight of the BuzzFeed fiasco and the smear-athon of Covington High School kids.

We Need to Retoxify Masculinity

Townhall

Kurt Schlichter: Being a man does not mean being a sad, hairy, lumpy version of a women. Nor does being a woman mean being a smaller, baby-having man. Being your gender is part of who you are, and by erasing that they seek to change you from who you are into who they want you to be: A neutered drone.

RBG Is an Opponent Worthy of Grudging Respect

Townhall

Kurt Schlichter: Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg is a terrible legal thinker, a leftist with no real respect for liberty and a confessed critic of the Constitution over its limitations upon the government’s ability to impose her fans’ pinko vision of soft, huggy tyranny upon Normal Americans. But I respect her as an opponent.

Hold Tight on the Wall, President Trump

Townhall

David Limbaugh: Trump has nothing to lose politically by holding firm and everything to lose by caving without Democrats meeting him halfway. Likewise, America has much to lose if Democrats prevail in their orchestrated charade. Please hang tight, Mr. President.

Trump Tax Returns: You Show Me Yours

Townhall

If Trump has a sense of humor and a sense of how little we know about the finances of our Congress and how sensitive members of Congress are about their personal finances, he would propose that on a specific date, he, along with all elected members of both the House of Representatives and the Senate, be required to release their tax returns or be faced with enormous fines. 

President Trump Isn’t the Enemy, Mr. Romney

Townhall

Why did Romney believe he needed to write this now — as his first volley — instead of first expressing his intention of trying to work with Trump to move his agenda forward in what promises to be a very tumultuous time? Why would Romney choose to publish his piece in the overtly liberal Washington Post?

Why Attacks on Trump’s Character Don’t Land

Townhall

Liberal journalists are all too happy to “fact check” everything the President says, no matter how insignificant, as if flooding the zone will somehow bring about a critical mass that turns off support. What it really does is drown out all of it, and the petty nature of most of it leads the larger issues to be dismissed as well. 

Trump Using American Capitalism to Help the Poor

Townhall

It appears that in 2018, because of the Trump tax cuts and deregulation, the U.S. economy will have its first year of 3 percent growth in over a decade. Black unemployment, 5.9 percent, and white unemployment, 3.4 percent, are at historic lows. And the gap between black and white unemployment has dramatically shrunk, showing that blacks are, in an unprecedented way, participating in the economic recovery.

Examining the Demise of Mainstream News Media in 2018

Townhall

Journalists in media were so blinded by their hatred of Trump that they could not see the constant negativity was backfiring. People dropped their subscriptions to biased newspapers and cable TV. People turned to news from bloggers, Facebook friends and conservative outlets in order to avoid the bias of traditional news sources.

Trump Did Not Lie to the Troops; Media Types Just Can’t Add

Townhall

What Trump implied is that he had given them a raise of roughly 10%. At 2.4% per year times 4 years he will have overseen a raise of 9.6% for the troops in his first term. Comparatively over Obama’s last 4 years that administration served up a whopping 1.25% pay raise per year equalling roughly half of Trump’s raise over an equally comparable period of time.

The War on Trump Is About Keeping Liberals and Their Lackeys in Power

Townhall

Kurt Schlichter: Liberalism was always a lie and a scam, right from its sordid beginnings among the progressives with their creepy messianic fervor, their infatuation with “expertise” (and hence, their embrace of evils like eugenics), and their contempt for the Constitution. Liberals consider themselves the anointed, divinely entitled to rule over us lesser folk, and they aren’t going to let anything get in the way of retaking the throne.

Beware of Silicon Valley Santas in the Schools

Townhall

Michelle Malkin: Parents from all parts of the political spectrum understand that “personalized learning” is Silicon Valley propaganda to distract from the true aim: Grabbing student and family data under the guise of “innovation” and luring the next generation of addicted consumers. 

Trump Should Pardon Everyone Except That Rat Michael Cohen

Townhall

Pardon Flynn, and Manafort, and Papadopliswhateverhisnameis. Pardon Stone and Corsi. Pardon Don, Jr., Jared, and Ivanka. Pardon Melania and Barron. Pardon Pence, and Pence’s pets. And then he should pardon himself…Trump has already shown he’s willing to use his power – that’s one of his best qualities. 

Mean-Spirited Media Do 180 on H.W. Bush

Townhall

Maybe reporters and anchors considered their largely favorable and complimentary coverage of the man in death as penance for their earlier sins during his life, but they still should be held accountable for what they said about him when it mattered.
