Who here remembers "The Rudy Renaissance" in New York?
I do. I was there. For the years before, the years during, and some years after, working into/out of the city on the trains.
Before Rudy, things were terrible and getting worse. Abe Beame, later David Dinkins -- not much more need be said.
Rudy changed all that. From getting the squeegee guys off the streets, agressive policing, better government all around. It WAS "a Renaissance" for New York. It seemed like a different place.
But such fortunes don't last forever. In NYC, it was very much "the man" that set the city on the recovery track. When Rudy left, Bloomberg had the good sense (at least in the beginning) to not upset Giuliani's apple cart.
But when Bloomberg left, and the communist Willhelm Whatever-his-name-was (oh, yeah, "deBlasio") got in, things started backsliding quickly. To where they are today.
I predict the greater course of America will be similar under Mr. Trump. And afterwards.
Yes, there will be, for a time, a "Trump Renaissance" of sorts. Things will likely go considerably better over the next few years as the total chaos of the "biden" administration is cleared away and a semblence of order restored to [much of] the nation.
The power of the leftist/communists is reduced and restrained -- for the moment.
But reports of the dem-communist party's demise are exaggerated.
GREATLY exaggerated.
Believe otherwise at the nation's peril.
With a bit o' luck, we may see J.D. succeed Mr. Trump, hopefully for four years at least. Eight would be better.
So... a possible (polite cough) "American Renaissance" for at least 12 years. Could it last that long?
Sooner or later the pendulum may swing back the other way.
Only time will tell.
