According to establishment politicians and the establishment media, President Trump is like some kind of demented bull in a china shop, barging into issues he doesn't understand with a dangerous combination of ignorance and bluster. But what if the real reason the Trump approach breaks so much china is that he's actually confronting problems that the "I.Y.I's" -- intellectual,yet idiots -- in the establishment have been running away from for years? And what if the real reason they hate him so much is that he's showing them up for their failures
In fact, some of the loudest voices on the left and the "Never Trump" right who scream abuse at President Trump literally helped create the mess he's now trying to clean up. Immigration is a perfect example.
Border patrol apprehensions at the southern border -- that didn't start in 2016. Look at these numbers: Over 3 million arrests in the last 10 years alone. And look at the humanitarian crisis -- hundreds of deaths, every year, and that's just in the last decade.
• The Border Protection, Anti-terrorism and Illegal Immigration Control Act of 2005 - failed.
• The Secure America and Orderly Immigration Act of 2005 - failed.
• The Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2007 - failed.
• President Bush's southwest border enforcement initiative in the 2009 budget - failed.
• The "Gang of Eight's" Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Act of 2013 – failed.
• Four executive orders focused on immigration reform - failed
And now suddenly it's all Trump's fault? These establishment politicians are just not serious. They're not serious about policy. They're not serious about reform. They're not serious about anything except writing pompous, self-regarding, opinion pieces to impress each other at Washington dinner parties.
