Interesting and well delivered speech from President Trump at Ft. Myers last night. I wonder if the foaming mouthed, bulging eyes Trump haters found much with which to disagree.
How about these points:
1. Since the founding of our republic, our country has produced a special class of heroes whose selflessness, courage and resolve is unmatched in human history. American patriots from every generation have given their last breath on the battlefield for our nation and for our freedom.
[I hear 'American exceptionalism' there......quite a change from the previous President, huh?]
2. ...we can find the inspiration our country needs to unify, to heal, and to remain one nation, under God.
[Wait.....did he mention God???? He must be familiar with the Founders!]
3. The men and women of our military operate as one team, with one shared mission and one shared sense of purpose. They transcend every line of race, ethnicity, creed and color ... all service members are brothers and sisters. They’re all part of the same family. ... America requires love for all of its people.
[And, again....the very opposite of the Democrat/Liberal Identity Politics. I bet he even included white males in that!]
4. ....nearly 16 years after the Sept. 11 attacks, after the extraordinary sacrifice of blood and treasure, the American people are weary of war without victory.
5. I share the American people’s frustration. I also share their frustration over a foreign policy that has spent too much time, energy, money — and most importantly, lives — trying to rebuild countries in our own image instead of pursuing our security interests above all other considerations.
[Wait....didn't the Democrats decide that some judge in Hawaii was in charge of foreign policy???]
6. My original instinct was to pull out. And historically, I like following my instincts.....many meetings, over many months, we held our final meeting last Friday at Camp David with my cabinet and generals to complete our strategy.
[Remember that last guy, the one who ignored his advisers....and failed miserably at everything he did?]
7. ....our nation must seek an honorable and enduring outcome worthy of the tremendous sacrifices that have been made, especially the sacrifices of lives. The men and women who serve our nation in combat deserve a plan for victory.
[Remember that last guy, who pulled all the troops out to leave a vacuum for 'the JayVee...ISIS'???? What a dunce.]
8. Today, 20 U.S.-designated foreign terrorist organizations are active in Afghanistan and Pakistan, the highest concentration in any region anywhere in the world.
[Of course, Obama handed over the ability to produce nuclear missiles to a nation that fits that description.]
9. When I became president, I was given a bad and very complex hand. But I fully knew what I was getting into, big and intricate problems.
[Remember 8 years of hearing Boooooossshhhhh as an excuse for every failure?]
10. But one way or another, these problems will be solved. I’m a problem solver. And in the end, we will win.
[Echoes of Reagan's famous 'We win, they lose.' And he did.....let's hope for the same consummation.]
