Top O’ the Briefing
Happy Monday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. Sharquayre was quickly achieving legend status for his Tibetan singing bowl interpretations of the entire Flock of Seagulls catalog.
Watching the Democrats commit so hard to living in an alternative reality as a way to return to relevance is, I will admit, frequently fascinating. OK, it can also be tedious as well, but the longer they do it, the more intrigued I am. From my perspective (concussion-free, sober, resident of planet Earth), this strategy of theirs is doing nothing but telling the American people that they should elect more Republicans.
I know that the Dems are a hive mind, but I keep waiting for at least one person in leadership to have an, “Um…guys…” moment. Instead, they’re doing things like sitting around on the Capitol steps in a futile attempt to become YouTube stars, which my RedState colleague Nick Arama roundly mocked.
Hardworking Americans: “What have the Dems done for us lately?”
Dems: “We sat around outside our office all day shooting the breeze.”
What next? Door-to-door puppy kicking?
Meanwhile, President Trump is out in the real world — the real real world, that is — doing things that are decidedly not very Hitlerian. Those of you who went to school when they still taught history will remember that the other Hitler was really into the whole war thing. In fact, he gave off the distinct impression that it was one of his favorite things to do.
President Trump would like there to be less war in the world. A lot less. He worked hard for peace around the world during his first term, but all of that went out the window when Joe Biden and his commie puppet masters were installed in the Oval Office. The worst people in the world have a violent field day when the United States has a weak president. Things got really bad the last four years when the U.S. pretty much didn’t have a president at all. Now that we have a real one again, he has to clean up those messes.
This is from something that Sarah wrote yesterday:
“Of all the leaders in the world today, no leader is working harder to prevent wars or end them than President Trump is right now. That’s why we’re talking to Iran. That’s why we’re engaged with Ukraine and Russia. It’s the desire to prevent these wars from breaking out and to end the ones that exist already… I just think it’s tremendous for our country to be led by a president, uh, who desires to bring peace and establish peace and protect peace.”
That’s what Secretary of State Marco Rubio said earlier this week to a group of reporters inside the Oval Office, and it’s a message he’s delivered continuously in recent days. On Sunday morning, Rubio appeared on “Meet the Press” and doubled down on the idea.
Can we once again acknowledge that, thus far, Rubio is absolutely killing it in his new gig?
Thankfully, the neocon days of shedding a lot of American blood in a foreign land in the hopes of one day being able to build a Cracker Barrel there are over. Many of the prominent voices from that era now spend their nights crying themselves to sleep in their #NeverTrump jam-jams.
President Trump is clear about what he wants from the various countries he is dealing with at the moment. A lot of people complain about his bluntness. As someone who came of age politically in the Reagan era, I am quite familiar with the “Quelle horreur!” appeasement types being put off by a president who isn’t afraid to hurt the feelings of the people who most need them hurt.
Trump keeps trying to put out fires that started because of Joe Biden’s uselessness and all that the Democrats can do is complain about how much water he’s using.
We don’t need to tell the Democrats that Trump isn’t any good at the Literally Hitler stuff — they can find that out a couple of Novembers from now.
