We should prioritize saving the west from those who would do us ill!

Mark Steyn delivers a great speech at the David Horowitz gathering in Florida.

One of the things he liked about the 2016 election is that the professional politicians lost bigly to Trump.

Nevertheless, Mark would rather people like Steve Bannon and Sebastian Gorka were still inside the White House.

Mark has particular contempt for the NeverTrumpers. They are the reason we got Trump! It's a lot easier for the base to get itself a new elite than it is for the elite to get a new base! Here in America, we have two frozen political parties. Neither of them was talking about anything that mattered. Mark roasts the Democrat Party for their emphasis on identity politics. Trump's campaign made the connection between the downward mobility of millions of blue collar workers and appalling trade deals and mass illegal immigration. The wall on the southern border is a literal expression of the American people's recovery of their sovereignty! Trump was the first guy to talk about immigration from the point of view of the people who are already here! Lindsey Graham wants open borders and he also wants us to have boots on the ground everywhere in the world.

Trump showed us that the best way to stand up to political correctness is to render it absolutely ludicrous.

Mark includes the Republican establishment in his condemnation. "They have nothing to say" to the people whose lives have deteriorated into a malaise.

Mark deeply regrets that we did not seriously go into Afghanistan. We had a huge technological advantage, but they had the will! We are not worthy of our soldiers who have been in Afghanistan now for 16 years!

We should prioritize saving the west from those who would do us ill!
