Prez Trump Speech To Congress Postscript From Kansas City

Posted mostly as a placeholder until the next update . . . Prez Trump's talk to congress was an exceptionally feisty event and worthy of consideration.

Two quote to start any conversation . . . From from NBC . . .

"Leaning into culture wars, Trump inveighed against transgender rights, “they/them” pronouns and diversity, equity and inclusion programs. He celebrated his crackdown on migration. He repeatedly taunted his predecessor, Joe Biden, saying the former president imposed “insane and very dangerous open border policies” and offered little in the way of olive branches to Democrats, instead touting his 2024 victory as a mandate to reshape the nation."

And here's more kind take from Fox news . . .

"Trump unveiled in his speech that Ukraine is prepared to sign off on a rare-earth minerals deal and continue peace negotiations to end the war in Ukraine, and that his administration has caught the terrorist behind an attack in Afghanistan that resulted in the death of 13 U.S. troops. He also promised he would drive down inflation costs and would "wage a war" on drug cartels as he bragged about his administration's accomplishments already in the past six weeks — including driving down illegal immigration crossings."

The question as always . . .

DID PREZ TRUMP WIN HEARTS & MINDS TONIGHT?!?!

Our quick take . . . On the immigration issue it's hard to deny his progress . . . As far as the current trade war . . . It's too early to tell how the strategy might play out and is already likely to change quickly.
