Brother's Keeper?

How about 100 brothers?

There is a cockamamie idea bubbling up on the left ... and that is that the United States, in order to stop immigrant caravans from Central America, needs to fix the economies of a El Salvador, Nicaragua and Guatemala ... much like we have slowed the illegal migration from Mexico because of NAFTA.

This lefty rationale is somewhat true. The United States has hollowed out much of middle America in manufacturing in order to help create a middle class in Mexico which, in turn, has reduced the border jumpers from that country.

So, using this as a prototype, our bubble heads on the left argue that we should repeat more of our bloodletting now to lift Central America out of poverty. What then would be next ... Venezuela? Argentina? Peru? Cuba?  Bangladesh? Afghanistan? Where does it stop? Of course, we would then be cursed as being colonialists.

It is now estimated that 1/3rd of all Salvadorans already reside in the United States (along with many MS-13 members and their supporters) ... and, on top of foreign aid, legal and illegal aliens send some $60 billion in remittances back to Mexico, Central and South America annually  ... already significantly propping up many of these corrupt narco-republics.

So what is the limit of our responsibilities to our neighbors ... particularly when it costs so much of our own well being? Amid we end up being hated in the process? Are wee all of these brothers' keeper?

Not if it costs us our country in the process ...

Hip Hip Horray!

Piece by piece President Trump is dismantling some of his predecessor''s ludicrous legacy of globalist anti-American policies ... many of them extra-Constitutional -- TPP, inviting in dreamers, Syrian and North Korean appeasement, MS-13 catch and release, the war on coal, NAFTA trade imbalances, the Obamacare disaster, blocking two oil pipelines, "opening" the Internet ... and now the Paris Climate Accord, This Paris deal was not really a climate deal. It was a globalist attempt to redistribute our nation's wealth to the rest of the world under the guise of controls on carbon dioxide, the basis of all life on Earth. There are oodles more Obama hate-America legacies that need to be obliterated ... in particular the Iran Nuclear deal, our love affair with the Muslim Brotherhood, the Deep State leaks, federal land grabs, tax reform, regulation reforms and finally the rebuilding of our infrastructure.

This POTUS decision was not taken lightly since it has set a fire under the media and most of the liberal left for his apostate stance. The economic cost to America would have been enormous without any measurable environmental return. This climate hysterical backlash should be on display over the coming days. But Trump was right.  See his clear rationale for his move ... it's compelling: Real Clear Politics.

For me, once again gutsy Trump gets my kudos!
