OPINION:
President Trump was elected by voters who agreed with his agenda of standing up to the Democratic and Republican establishment, and we are pleased that he has kept his promises. He has done well by rebuilding our armed forces, lowering taxes, stemming the flow of illegal immigrants, appointing judges who follow the U.S. Constitution, getting us closer to energy independence, and pushing economic and trade policies that are bringing back jobs.
Mr. Trump has helped Republicans retain the Senate majority, yet his Republican primary opponents and critics say he is unfit, childish, etc. But he is providing a remedy for Barack Obama’s poor decisions on the Islamic State, the Iranian nuclear deal and the Paris climate accord.
At some point rational Republican and conservative leaders must emphasize that a split Republicans Party with unelectable candidates will give the presidency, House and Senate to the Democrats — and our country will become a different USA (the United Socialists of America). That is definitely not in the best interest of our country or our citizens.
