  1. He’s wrong about Iran, North Korea (not our enemies), Israel (very much our enemy), and ISIS (how about just stopping to fund them? The rest will happen automatically).
    He’s mostly right about domestic issues – but of course that won’t prevent the NeverTrumpers from screaming he’s a Nazi racist for using the words “chain migration”, saying we’re all going to die because of “global warming” or saying he’s calling for unity while at the same time being a Nazi racist misogynist fascist who can’t be worked with. (I predict we’ll see them focus on exactly those points).
    The problem domestically is not so much what he’s saying or doing, but what he’s NOT talking about and NOT doing:
    – Where is any attempt to deal with election fraud, urgently needed if he doesn’t want to blocked from getting anything done after the midterms? Unless vote rigging is stopped, we’ll see a NeverTrump landslide in the midterms. They won’t make the same mistake (not stealing enough votes) twice.
    – Where is any attempt to deal with fake news, such as restoring the fairness doctrine and the “news can’t be for profit” rule Clinton kicked out in 1996?
    – Where is any attempt to truly drain the swamp? Still waiting for “lock her (and Comey. And the Bushs. And Cheney. And McCain. And Graham. And Obomber. And many others…) up” to come closer to reality…

      • I think the wall will be built, he hasn’t backtracked on that much — and besides, I don’t think it’s the most important project out there.
        Maybe I’m underestimating its importance because I’m out in nowhere and we hardly ever see any new people moving here (regardless of whether it’s Americans, legal immigrants or illegal immigrants).
        Personally I’d rather put most of the money designated to go into the wall into fixing up the infrastructure (would be nice to get FTTH even in areas like mine) — but like I said maybe I’m underestimating the problem because I’m not where the problems are.
