CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 15, 2020
A FEW YEARS AGO I WROTE A BOOK CALLED “WHAT WORKS: COMMON SENSE SOLUTIONS FOR A STRONGER AMERICA.” IT WAS A SMALL EFFORT TO GET PEOPLE TO FOCUS ON SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS THAT WORKED IN THE PAST, UPDATE THEM AS NECESSARY AND MOVE FORWARD. APPARENTLY NO ONE LISTENED.
MAYBE PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS THE EXCEPTION. HIS POLICIES – DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN – HAVE WORKED SPECTACULARLY. JOE BIDEN HAS PROMISED TO REVERSE MANY OF THEM – FROM HIGHER TAXES, TO POSSIBLY RENEWING THE TERRIBLE NUCLEAR DEAL WITH IRAN, THE WORLD’S NUMBER ONE SPONSOR OF TERRRORISM, TO LEGALIZING ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, WHICH WILL ENCOURAGE MORE TO COME HERE.
WHY WOULD HE DO THIS? BECAUSE HIS LIBERAL FRIENDS WANT IT THAT WAY. THEY DON’T WANT SOLUTIONS; THEY WANT THE ISSUES SO THEY CAN USE THEM TO ATTAIN AND HOLD ON TO POWER.
IT IS DISGUSTING, ISN’T IT? WHEN SOLUTIONS ARE CLEAR, WHEN CERTAIN POLICIES WORK, IT UNDERMINES THE COUNTRY NOT TO APPLY THEM. BUT THAT’S WHAT THE LEFT, INCLUDING THE MEDIA, ARE DOING. IT WON’T CHANGE UNLESS WE CHANGE THEM AND WE CHANGE OUR ATTITUDE TOWARDS GOVERNMENT. I’M CAL THOMAS.
