Trumpish blog gets hypersensitive
American Greatness is interesting to read. Its a very pro-Trump blog and gives that viewpoint. (to our resident liberals, there is a difference between pro-Trump and conservative and libertarian-Republicans are not a monolithic group).

In this one, it displays Trump's hypersensitivity and antipathy towards the Bushes.
"...George W. Bush, a good man without malice, nonetheless last week illustrated why Donald Trump is president.
While in Dubai, Bush criticized the Trump Administration’s lack of progress on immigration reform. Then he weirdly noted, “Americans don’t want to pick cotton at 105 degrees, but there are people who want to put food on their family’s tables and are willing to do that.”
Where to start when Republican elites confirm their own stereotypes?..."
The Trump catharsis has shown that about 10 percent of the Republican Party, the NeverTrumpers, was largely apolitical. That is, former cornerstone positions of deregulation and tax reform, oil and gas production, charter schools, deterrent foreign policy, restoring friendship with Israel and moving the embassy to Jerusalem were apparently always secondary to the more important criterion of offering a mild, sober and judicious frown to progressivism, through discerning losers like George H.W. Bush, John McCain, or Mitt Romney.
..."
Of course, the "loser" did win twice. And what W. did was say we needed to fix the immigration situation. He tried and failed. Yet this article takes it as a criticism of Trump and goes into great length about why we don't need any foreign labor.
