SUPERCUT
From the Soviet Union, to China, to Cuba, to Nicaragua, to Venezuela, Bernie Sanders has never met a communist regime he didn't praise, regimes that killed millions of people in the 20th century.

I’m seeing Governor Cuomo today at The White House. He must understand that National Security far exceeds politics. New York must stop all of its unnecessary lawsuits & harrassment, start cleaning itself up, and lowering taxes. Build relationships, but don’t bring Fredo!

McConnell is an experienced and effective leader. Trump is lucky to have him.
NIGEL FARAGE:
“…It’s been the most incredible week in Washington D.C., and without doubt the most successful of the Trump presidency to date. In 2016, many people laughed at me when I said Trump would win. When I said it again to Democrats who I met this time, there was no laughter, just an empty stare.
The main reason for my visit was that, with Brexit achieved, I am now out of full-time work and out of elected politics for the first time in more than 20 years. An invitation from Texan Congressman Louie Gohmert to sit in the gallery and watch Trump’s State of the Union address proved irresistible.
The speech itself was by far the best that I’ve ever seen Trump give. He was in control from start to finish. As he championed the economic gains line by line, the Republican Congressmen and Senators rose to their feet and applauded. What astonished me was how many others sitting in the gallery joined in as well, even if some of the claims which the President made are disputed. Throughout much of the proceedings, the Democrats sat motionless, looking solemn and, frankly, beaten.
Halfway through, we saw why Trump has been labelled the greatest showman global politics has ever seen. I am told that it is normal for certain distinguished guests to be in the Presidential box up in the gallery, but Trump involved members of the audience as well in a way that turned the event into a live TV spectacle to rival any popular program.
One distinguished guest present was Charles McGee, a 100-year-old Second World War fighter pilot, a member of the legendary Tuskagee Airmen group of pioneering African-American fighter pilots and an individual who the president said had flown more than 130 combat missions in World War II. McGee was asked to stand, so that his stunning achievements could be acknowledged. Even many Democrats felt compelled to join in with the ovation which this American hero so richly deserved.
Then there was Amy Williams, a North Carolina mother of two young children whose husband deployed to Afghanistan seven months ago. Noting the heavy burden placed on military families, Trump arranged for Mrs Williams’ husband, Sgt. First Class Townsend Williams, to join them. Watching their poignant reunion was a profound moment which, I am certain, affected everybody present.
Next the very graceful First Lady placed the Presidential Medal of Freedom around the neck of Rush Limbaugh, the biggest radio host in the USA, who had recently received a very bad medical diagnosis. This was the State of the Union turned into a fitting tribute to Americans from all backgrounds who show courage in many different ways. It was extraordinary. In fact, it was the best theatre ticket I’ve ever had.
By contrast, the female Democrats were all dressed in white, to draw attention to their perception that Trump is a misogynist. As they stood there they looked more like a bunch of naive students than a group of supposedly senior politicians. Enter Nancy Pelosi, the Speaker. By tearing up the copy of the speech given to her by Trump, she cheapened herself, degraded a great office of state, and made the Democratic Party look more like a protest movement than a serious alternative to government. I have witnessed petulant stunts like this before in British politics, especially within Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour Party, and we all know where it has ended up. Having moved so far to the left, it virtually disqualified itself from office at the last general election. Many believe the party’s future now hangs in the balance.
To make matters worse for the Democratic Party, the agony of Iowa was continuing. Its caucus had developed a new voting app, but it turned out not to work and the results were delayed day after day. I don’t think that President Trump could believe his luck at times this week…”
Becket Adams:
“…The Democratic Party’s go-to excuse for why it lost a winnable presidential election in 2016 is that Moscow tricked U.S. voters with memes.
Since President Trump won the White House, major newsrooms have fully embraced the Russian interference narrative, meaning top journalists, including NBC News’ Heidi Przybyla, now see Russian agents under every doily.
It is like the Red Scare of the 1950s all over again, only dumber.
On Monday, at around 5:30 p.m., a Twitter user deployed the hashtag “#BloombergIsRacist” in response to the release of damning audio of 2020 Democratic presidential primary candidate Mike Bloomberg describing the controversial stop-and-frisk policies he championed as mayor of New York City.
As the audio went viral, the hashtag did likewise, which is exactly the sort of online response one would expect for remarks as controversial as Bloomberg’s.
However, for an obscure Twitter account that goes by the name “Ms. Krassenstein,” which is almost certainly being used by the anti-Trump activist brothers of the same name to circumvent a permanent Twitter ban, the anti-Bloomberg hashtag reeked of Russian interference.
Because, why not?..”
Byron York:
“…The Democrats who impeached President Trump knew they did not have a prayer of removing him from office, but they also knew impeachment might have another effect: to weaken the president and reduce his chances of winning reelection in November.
It was an unprecedented plan, an election-year gambit in which Democrats used the House of Representatives’s constitutional power of impeachment as perhaps the most audacious opposition research maneuver of all time.
But will it work?…
…impeachment was big, and. even if it does fade from memory, Trump appears determined to keep it alive.
“The radical Left’s pathetic partisan crusade has completely failed and utterly backfired,” the president told a crowd of 12,000 at a rally in Manchester, New Hampshire, on the eve of that state’s primary. “While the extreme Left has been wasting America’s time with this vile hoax, we’ve been killing terrorists, creating jobs, raising wages, enacting fair trade deals, securing our borders, and lifting up citizens of every race, color, religion, and creed.”
After his “full, complete, and absolute total acquittal,” Trump will not let voters forget what Democrats did. But Trump’s purpose is not only to vent. On the campaign trail in the coming months, he will take care to place the Democratic impeachment in the context of his administration’s accomplishments, economic and otherwise.
By the way, Trump drew a capacity crowd of 12,000 in New Hampshire, dwarfing any crowd drawn by Democrats in their hotly contested primary. He did the same thing in Iowa just before the caucuses, speaking to a packed house of more than 7,000 in Des Moines.
In Iowa, Trump also put impeachment in context: He is doing the country’s work while Democrats are consumed with partisan rage.
“We’re having probably the best years that we’ve ever had in the history of our country, and I just got impeached!” Trump said. “Can you believe these people? I got impeached!”
Mini Mike is a 5’4” mass of dead energy who does not want to be on the debate stage with these professional politicians. No boxes please. He hates Crazy Bernie and will, with enough money, possibly stop him. Bernie’s people will go nuts!
