Great article but flawed by the bizarre, apparently obligatory, diss of Trump.
Believe it or not we can cite specifics as to why we like him, which is the opposite of cult-like thinking.
Start with these:
--The bad guys hate him
-- He avoided new wars namely refusing to expand into Syria or attack the Iranian missile bases)
-- Energy independence
-- Cheap gas, which benefits the poor and middle class much more than the rich.
-- Changing the tax code (real estate tax deduction policy) to benefit the middle class at the expense of the rich (Democrats)
-- Ending life-long prison sentences for those who did what Hunter Biden does
-- Recognizing the reality of human trafficking and the fentanyl crisis, and that a secure boarder is an important part of the solution.
-- Standing up to China and trying to return good jobs here.
-- Standing up to Boeing. Remember that?
The question isn't why we like Trump, it's why Hedges doesn't.
He’s one of the most important voices today. Also can’t believe Cornel West was denied tenure. WTF!
