TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Once again, it’s another day and another Wall Street Journal editorial throwing shade on President Trump. Last night’s headline nailed it: The Trump Tariff Roller Coaster. The article was framed perfectly with this subhead: “He gives a one month reprieve to car makers but everyone else loses”…Trump’s Tuesday night speech generated significant viewer interest as it drew 36.6 million viewers, more than Biden’s first 2021 address.  However, 70% of the audience was 55 and older.  Fox News was the most watched of any network. (Deadline)… Good Jimmy Kimmel Trump joke from Tuesday night: “According to a new poll from CNN, 52 percent of Americans do not approve of the way Trump is handling his job as president. The other 48 percent responded in Russian,” cracked the ABC late night comedian, according to NewsBusters…Dept. of Sticks & Stones: The Washington Beacon called Rep. Al Green (D-TX), who disrupted Trump’s Tuesday night speech, a “ponytail geezer”… Human Events is sounding the alarm about Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett.  It seems she’s not conservative enough. “Barrett’s track record has been a rollercoaster of disappointment, with too many stops on the liberal side of the tracks,” wrote pundit and Pizzagate-theory-promoter Jack Posobiec. “This isn’t just a critique—it’s a red alert for Republicans: stop playing DEI games with judicial picks, or we’ll keep getting burned”…The American Conservative identified four unconventional politicians who could be the answer to the prayers of Democrats as they search for their own Trump in 2028.  They are:  AOC, ESPN chatterbox Stephen Smith, Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett, and Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania.  My advice: keep praying…if you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard

Dems and Their Media Prove They’re the Enemies of the People

The Democrats claim to be the party of empathy and the defender of minorities, but they couldn't muster the effort to applaud a young African American boy who survived cancer.

Trump Made Dems Look Like Clowns in Speech

Since their loss in November, Democrats claim to be doing a lot of soul-searching, but apparently without much success, given that Democrats in Congress refused to even stand for the possibility of an American “golden age” under Trump.

The Dems’ New Olympic Sport: Synchronized Sulking

In a display that could only be described as a masterclass in collective petulance, Dem members of Congress transformed Trump’s 99-minute address to a joint session of Congress into a live audition for the World Championships of Synchronized Sulking.

Trump’s Oval Office Gambit Pays Off Big as Humbled Zelensky Caves

When President Trump dressed down a slovenly dressed Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Friday in the Oval Office, the mainstream media lost their collective mind.

Flip-Flopping Zelensky

After all his drama in DC didn't work, he spent the weekend in London and that didn't really get him anywhere so he told Trump he's ready to make a deal. Now he says he won't negotiate with Russia, and wants an Article 5 Declaration, which means the EU will pay the price of WW3.

To the Left, everything is an 'existential crisis' and Trump is Hitler. Yawn.

Make America Normal Again

The left has abandoned America and religious-based values. Donald Trump’s goals as he outlined in front of the nation would have been uncontroversial 30 or 40 years ago. Today, his drive to normalcy is simply revolutionary.

The Death of Europe

source: JohnStossel.com

Europe is kind of like a big museum. Tourist money keeps it going, but there’s so little growth that, per person, America’s poorest state (Mississippi) is now richer than most European countries. The reason is the very same policies ignorant Americans want to copy — higher taxes on the rich.

NYT’s Maureen Dowd Is the Patron Saint of Smug, Shallow Journalism

source: American Spectator

She has perfected the formula for the lazy political column. Her writing leans on snide remarks, pop culture name-drops, and a profound sense of self-satisfaction. Over the past decade, she has milked his presidencies for a stream of recycled, sarcastic drivel.

Hold the Tariffs, Please

source: Unleash Prosperity

Trump delivered a “hell, yes” speech last night, but it’s time to be attentive to a spooked stock market, inflation that’s still too high, and GDP growth that’s sputtering. Trump should push the pro/growth tax cut message, and steer away from the tariff/protectionism riff.

TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! I bailed on Trump’s speech at the top of the hour last night. All the lies, boasts and grievances dented my brain.  Right on schedule this morning, right wing media praised the speech as you’ll see in my roundup.  The Washington Examiner was the only outlet I saw from the right that expressed some skepticism describing it as “style over substance”…Ben Shapiro, the world’s most popular conservative podcaster, yesterday launched a campaign urging President Trump to pardon Derek Chauvin.  The former police officer was convicted in the 2020 murder of George Floyd.  Shapiro maintains that the evidence of the case did not support the claim that Chauvin was responsible for Floyd’s death.  Furthermore, Shapiro asserts that the conviction of Chauvin “represents the defining achievement of the Woke movement in American politics”…Another day, another Wall Street Journal editorial condemning Trump.  Last night, the Murdoch-controlled news outlet told the harsh truth about tariffs in this simple five-word headline: Trump’s Tariffs Whack Trump Voters. And just to rub it in even more, the subhead read, “”Whatever happened to the GOP concern for the working class?”…The Canadian comedy program “This Hour Has 22 Minutes” posted a hilarious video of the Zelensky-Trump Oval Office showdown.  It really gives “SNL” a run for its money…In case you were wondering, Deputy Director of the FBI Dan Bongino is giving up his day job as a nationally syndicated right wing radio host and podcaster.  He will be replaced by Vince Conglianese and the show will be rebranded as “Vince.” Here’s the press release…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.
