Fun Enemy President

More From Victor Davis Hanson

The enemy of the black is not the white. the enemy of capitalist is not communist, the enemy of homosexual is not heterosexual, the enemy of jew is not arab, the enemy of youth is not the old, the enemy of hip is not redneck, the enemy of chicano is not gringo and the enemy of women is not men. we all have the same enemy. the enemy is the tyranny of the dull mind. the enemy is every expert who practices technocratic manipulation, the enemy is every proponent of standardization and the enemy is every victim who is so dull and lazy and weak as to allow himself to be manipulated and standardized.

Thanks to nbc news and thanks to the nbc primetime tv network, donald trump has been in living rooms for 11 years being who he is. the donald trump running for president is not an unknown quantity. the donald trump running for president is the donald trump everybody's gotten to know, and quite a lot of people watch those donald trump tv shows, the apprentice and whatever else on there.

The attitude of the west and of russia towards a crisis like ukraine is diametrically different. the west is trying to establish the legality of any established border. for russia, ukraine is part of the russian patrimony. a russian state was created around kiev about 1,200 years ago. ukraine itself has been part of russia for 500 years, and i would say most russians consider it part of russian patrimony. the ideal solution would be to have a ukraine like finland or austria that can be a bridge between these two rather than an outpost.

I will tell , though, that donald trump got 70 percent in eastern kentucky and i don't think it had anything to do with the russian. he got 70 percent because in eastern kentucky we didn't like what president [barack] obama or hillary clinton wanted to do to our coal jobs. it didn't have anything to do with the russians.

Donald trump has no design to transform america. donald trump doesn't think america is second-rate. donald trump doesn't think america's guilty. donald trump doesn't think america owes people things. donald trump doesn't think that the borders are to be wide open so that anybody who wants here can come here because we've screwed them at some time in the past.

People hear from donald trump that he's such an extraordinary success. they didn't know about trump airlines and trump mortgages and trump vitamin network and trump steaks and trump taj mahal. they didn't realize a lot of small people have been crushed by donald trump's rise to become a very wealthy man, successful financially, but this is a guy who has not been a uniform success.
