I have come to the realization that Trump is one of the most important presidents in US history because of his moral clarity, and because he dared to defy political correctness

Over the past decade, the world's equilibrium has been disrupted. Social media helped advance the democratic debate, but also intensified the shaming of others, no to mention psychological warfare.
And the US, as always, was the leader of the pack. Self-appointed clergy from the Political Correctness Religion have been telling us what we can say and what we cannot. If you say one bad joke, you are automatically put on trial. The Inquisition is back, but this time in English.
But there is one person who has taken it upon himself to counter this trend, using the very social media networks that have created this problem.
His name is Donald Trump, the same person who has been dismissed all through the primaries and the general election, only to prove his detractors wrong, eventually becoming the 45th president of the United States.
He has already fulfilled his most important pledges, among them the appointment of two Supreme Court justices and 50 federal judges to lower courts.
The US economy is on fire despite the ongoing spats with China. And despite the domestic problems he faces at home, he has managed to successfully amend free-trade agreements, create new alliances and successfully promote US interests in NATO and other international bodies.
He has maintained his policy of maximum pressure on Iran by withdrawing from the 2015 nuclear deal and imposing sanctions. Even the investigations into the alleged Russian interference in the election went nowhere, and now people are asking questions over law enforcement's conduct and why Trump's campaign was subject to wiretapping.
The Israeli public has also understood that the president has lived up to his promises, especially after his decision to move the US Embassy to Jerusalem and recognize the Golan Heights as Israeli territory, as well as his decision to view Israeli settlements as consistent with international law and his executive order punishing campuses for allowing anti-Israel activity.
But the media herd, the intellectuals, and the fundamentalist liberals will just not let go. For them, Trump is like a red rag to a bull. They consider him a thug who has taken over the White House.
I had the opportunity to meet and interview him multiple times on the campaign trail and three times as president. I have come to the realization that Trump is one of the most important presidents in US history.
In a world where boundaries are blurred, where it is unclear who is good and who is bad, it is good to know that that the world's superpower is led by a person with moral clarity, a president who knows which side creates technology and develops medicine, and which side exports terrorism. He knows that there are some who are for liberty and some who live in darkness.
We live in an era where if you are a conservative, God forbid, you are automatically considered an enemy because you are against political correctness.
Some would say that he is vulgar, but he has forced the liberals to confront the reality they have created with their discourse on the "Deplorables," as Hillary Clinton called his supporters.
Trump is the man of the decade because he has been the leader of the good guys. Regardless of whether he wins another term, he has redefined the world and challenged the cardinals of the new Inquisition – and by doing that he changed our discourse and reality.
EDITOR’S NOTE: Caroline Glick writes that “Thanks to the Obama administration's political, economic and military support for Iran, when President Donald Trump entered office in January 2017, Iran had effectively consolidated its control over an empire that stretched from Iran through Iraq to Syria and Lebanon. Yemen had also become an Iranian colony. With Trump's decision in May 2018 to withdraw the US from Obama's nuclear deal and reinstate US sanctions against Iran, the Trump administration began destabilizing Iran, at home and throughout its colonies. The protests, which began in Lebanon and Iraq in October and spread last month to Iran, are rooted in economic privation and dislocation fomented in large part by the US sanctions.”

I just can’t agree that tearing up the Iran deal is good for the United States or Israel. The deal, although not perfect, allowed monitoring to make sure that Iran was staying within limits on uranium enrichment. Now, there is no monitoring.
Israel lacks the capacity to completely destroy the Iranian nuclear infrastructure and the United States has no desire for more dead Americans in yet another Mid East quagmire. If you study the mullahs carefully, they are ok getting their country destroyed, as long as they get rid of the “Zionist entity”. If they could take out Israel, which, given its size, one or two nukes would do it, they believe Allah will bless them in the afterlife, so the fact that Iran is blown off the map is ok.
An Iran that is completely unmonitored is an existential threat to Israel, because they could very quickly obtain enough material to make two to four bombs.
President Trump has my support. I'm also proud to say he has my vote. God Bless him as he battles his way through the swamp of professional politicians who are looking out for themselves and their party and the fake media. History and fact doesn't lie. He is reshaping our courts to truly represent the people. His court appointees will have a positive effect on the U.S. for decades to come. He rose above political correctness for the good of the nation. In my opinion he has done more for the people than any other President. MAGA!, KAG!
As a constitutional, paleo conservative, I find nothing sane or conservative about Trump. He promised to rein in the deficit. It is bigger now than when Obama was president. He is being manipulated like a child by a North Korean dictator. He is on the brink of getting us into a war with Iran when the United States has no vested interest in the region. He is amoral, unprincipled and easily manipulated. Some of the judges he appointed have never taken a deposition, can’t answer basic questions about motions, have never tried a case , or even been in a courtroom. The “first step act” is a dangerous Kim Kardashian supported scheme that will cause more law abiding folks to become victims like we have seen in California.
I am happy to have Trump there as long as he keeps appointing judges who have actually read the Constitution a time or two and think it actually means something.
The problem is,when our country is bankrupt we won't have any way to pay these judges
Maybe some Ukranian oil and gas company will pay them.
