Townhall, Wayne Allyn Root
I'm little time at the moment, but the idea that "strong" = "good" is a really disturbing one, and one that I'd like to revisit in the future.
For now, enjoy. The background here is Trump's interview with Playboy nearly 25 years ago, in which he excoriated Gorbachev for poor leadership, while praising China for strong leadership. Gorbachev, mind you, was leading his country out of the Cold War, hand in hand with Reagan. China was cracking down on pro-democracy protesters with soldiers and tanks.
Tiananmen’s embarrassing as hell.
The government of China has a hold
On any phrase or number, name or knell
Associated with it, has controlled
All knowledge of the women in the ranks,
Of Gorbachev traversing round the back,
And men, and statues, squished beneath the tanks.
The Donald thought it better to attack
The Russian, for his weakness in the way
He led his country out beneath the Cold.
But China got his praise for the display
That bloodied off democracy, the old
And Reddish rule remaining. I am lost.
The businessman has missed the total cost.
