How Trump Changed the World

By defying conventional wisdom on the Middle East and China, he reshaped both political parties

On Sept. 16 the editorial board of the New York Times did the impossible. It said something nice about President Trump. "The normalization of relations between Israel and two Arab states, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain, is, on the face of it, a good and beneficial development," the editors wrote. They even went so far as to say that the "Trump administration deserves credit for brokering it." I had to read that sentence twice to make sure I wasn't dreaming. Perhaps the world really is ending.

Or perhaps the Times cannot avoid the reality that the "Abraham Accords" between Israel, the UAE, and Bahrain are a historic achievement. It is the first advance toward peace in the Middle East since Israel signed a treaty with Jordan in 1994. By exposing the intransigence and corruption of the Palestinian authorities, and thereby removing them from the diplomatic equation, the Trump administration reestablished the "peace process" as a negotiation between states. And because the states in the region face a common foe—Iran—they have every incentive to band together. This is textbook realpolitik. The world is better off for it.

Background Checks now taking over 24 hours!

Over the last dozen years I've never experienced a wait of more than 2 hours to complete a background check.

Yesterday I went to pick up a firearm that UPS had delivered the day prior. So that was my first clue. It was taking the store 24 hours to process incoming deliveries. (They said 50 per day)

So, I completed the 4473 and as I noticed the STACKS of firearms with completed 4473s attached, the dealer told me, "OK, we'll call you tomorrow when the approval is complete."

With my eyebrows raised above my masked expression the dealer said, "yea, crazy huh? It used to be 5 minutes."

Having a hard time deciding those face should be added to Mt. Rushmore — Pres. Reagan or Pres. Trump. If I’m not mistaken, there’s only room for one more. What do do, what to do?

Not to rain on the parade but this is no time to rest on laurels. We HAVE to get this man re-elected or America as we know it is over.
