Trump Talks to Enemies, Dems Blow Gaskets
Kevin McCullough
Put simply, Donald Trump says he’s willing to extend his Asia trip in order to meet Kim Jong Un. Meanwhile, back in the American sandbox, Chicago’s Mayor Brandon Johnson is lecturing a reporter for using the term “illegal alien,” calling it “racist, nasty language.” The contrast couldn’t be brighter if it were lit by a North Korean missile launch: one man engaging enemies to make the world safer, the other refusing to engage reality at all.
Trump wants to talk, not just preen for the cameras or post a statement — he wants the handshake, the eye contact, the deal. He’s signaling to the world that America is still willing to lead, not hide. By saying he’ll stay in Asia longer to meet Kim, he’s doing what real leaders do — keeping communication lines open while keeping the upper hand. It’s unpredictable, sure. Risky, maybe. But you don’t keep the peace by locking yourself in the bunker of political correctness. You do it by walking into the room and owning it.
The same people who spent four years claiming Trump would trigger World War III now seem offended that he’s trying to prevent one. Democrats have spent so long worshiping at the altar of nuance that they’ve forgotten how to speak the language of strength. Trump hasn’t. He’s not afraid to talk to people the diplomatic class finds untouchable. He believes that showing up — and staring the devil in the eye — is a better deterrent than a sternly worded press release.
