There are plenty of reasons to be generally skeptical of President Trump, and especially to be critical of his trade policy and the recent announcement of seeking to require electric utilities to buy electricity from coal and nuclear power plants (though this particular thing requires separate comment). But Max Boot abuses the privilege.

[...]

So . . . I guess Max boot has never heard of the U.S. tariffs on Canadian lumber imports from previous administrations that are estimated to have cost nearly 10,000 Canadian jobs. Did Trump’s predecessors also not care about Canadian soldiers? How about President Obama? Did he also not care about Canadian sacrifice when he blocked the Keystone pipeline for eight years?

It will be fun to watch this thread play out and be steered into the same old fightfests based on the provocative headline alone.
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

It should be easy to see who read the headline and who read the article.

I don't know who Max Boot is, but I did have a long running feud with Max Headroom in the 80's....

  • All deserve a trial if accused
Garry Kasparov quotes and retweets Max Boot, one reason I've fallen out with the former chess champion. Boot deserves the criticism.  I guess, he's portrayed as a "conservative", a conservative for the NYT or whatever outfit he writes for. He certainly misses the boat every time I have read him.

Yep. We really need to be aware of those “portrayed as a ‘conservative’”.
