Democracy? (6/25)

As a Trump apologist, Phil Boas weaves his politically mercurial way through today's news and concludes that Trump, whom he, of course, finds "infuriating," "bombastic," and "reckless", is the man who may "remake the modern Middle East." A man with "guts," leading the crusade to destroy the leftist "ideological jihad bent on conquering American institutions." Trump is shaming Europeans who live under the the USA's defensive financial cloak to stand up. Trump may be "abnormal" but is teaching that, "Might is right." Forget diplomacy. That's weakness. Drop some big bombs. I seem to remember another leader wielded military power similarly when moving into the Sudetenland, Czechoslovakia, and Austria and then France. According to the Boas doctrine we must stand up to the leftist Marxist communists, aka Democrats, some disguised as dark skinned people. Unfortunately fascism and communism are now the trend. As for the clever Israelis forget the killing of 50,000 Palestinians and the efforts to take over of their land, it's just retribution and redistribution. Phil needs some history lessons. Our children will pay the price. If they want democracy, it will have to be defended.
