COMMON SENSE: Regardless of who you are, even if you are a Radical Leftist Alinskyite, you should want President Trump to prevail in this governmental shutdown standoff. There is a good reason why. Let me explain.
Not only is the issue about funding the military and choosing American citizens over illegals, it is also about the man, Donald Trump. Will he prevail in this showdown with Senator Chuck Schumer, or will the President be the first to flinch? This is obviously important to Americans, but it is also important to our friends and foes internationally.
In North Korea, Kim Jong Un, who is also engaged in a standoff with President Trump, is watching what is transpiring with keen interest. If Trump flinches with Schumer, it will embolden the North Korean dictator to continue with his reckless pursuit of nuclear weapons. He will think that he can also intimidate the President, exactly like Schumer is attempting to do by shutting down the government over DACA.
In Iran, the Ayatollah, who boasts about destroying “The Great Satan” and Israel, is also watching events unfold with a keen eye, wondering if Trump can be intimidated. Both the Ayatollah and Kim Jong Un hope that Trump caves into Schumer’s demands. This is why it is important for Trump to win this battle.
What is truly amazing to me is how this variable, which is staggeringly important, is not even being reported about by the media—not even on Fox News. It is monumentally important though, even to liberals. Remember, nuclear weapons do not discriminate between Democrats and Republicans. They kill everybody, which is why all Americans should be rooting for President Trump to hold his ground, remain firm, and prevail in this stalemate. Our lives could depend on it.
