CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY FEBRUARY 1, 2018
IN HIS FIRST STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS TUESDAY NIGHT, PRESIDENT TRUMP CALLED FOR UNITY. BUT UNITY IS NOT UNION. DON’T LOOK FOR THE PROGRESSIVE LEFT TO DO ANYTHING TO HELP THE PRESIDENT UNLESS THEY CAN FORCE HIM TO BREAK HIS PROMISES ABOUT IMMIGRATION, TAXES AND SPENDING.
THE PRESIDENT DID HIMSELF AND THE COUNTRY A FAVOR BY CLEARLY AND SOBERLY OUTLINING HIS AGENDA AND VIEWS ON EVERYTHING FROM THE ECONOMY, TO IMMIGRATION, EVEN PRISON REFORM AND A FOREIGN POLICY THAT AWARDS AMERICA’S FRIENDS AND PENALIZES OUR ENEMIES. WHAT A CONCEPT! HIS BALCONY GUESTS WERE A PERFECT REFLECTION OF HIS THEMES ABOUT HEROISM AND OVERCOMING.
CONTRAST THE SPEECH WITH THE DEMOCRAT RESPONSE DELIVERED BY CONGRESSMAN JOE KENNEDY III FROM FALL RIVER, MASSACHUSETTS. IT WAS FULL OF THE FAMILIAR DEMOCRAT ISSUES – RACISM, TRANSGENDERS, EVIL CORPORATIONS, UNEQUAL DISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH, FEAR AND ANGER. KENNEDY LOOKED AS IF WAS DELIERVING A VALEDICTORIAN ADDRESS AT A COMMENCEMENT.
IT WAS PRESIDENT TRUMP’S BEST SPEECH AS PRESIDENT. IT WAS DISCIPLINED AND OPTIMISTIC. IF HE KEEPS IT UP HE MIGHT EVEN SEE SOME OF HIS AGENDA PASSED, NOT TO MENTION INCREASED APPROVAL RSATINGS. I’M CAL THOMAS IN WASHINGTON.
