OPINION:
Last month the Dow celebrated its biggest June in 81 years. Forgoing expected U.S. military action and steadily increasing economic sanctions has Iran slowly losing the fight against the free world. Kim Jong-un welcomes the first sitting American president into North Korea for talks and thetrue beginning of a relationship.
The list of accomplishments made since Donald Trump has become president is staggering, and President Trump has just begun. So far he has had little help from anybody anywhere. As the proud American he is, he has elected to expand upon the celebration of America’s independence this July 4. The fireworks display will be noticeably bigger than ever before, and Trump will speak briefly, among the other festivities scheduled before the sun goes down on the National Mall.
Critics are appalled that the president would choose to speak on Independence Day, saying he always makes everything “about him.” Mr. Trump’s predecessor was famous for his use of “I,” “me” and “my” in every speech, whether here or abroad. The current president could and may cure every ill known to man, but the left would still not acknowledge or give him an ounce of credit or respect.
