Trump Puts Left on Notice: 'This Administration Does Not Apologize for American Power'
Bob Hoge
For decades now, the left in this country has preached that we should feel guilty about America’s success, we should obsess over its flaws, we should downplay our positive contributions to the world, and we should talk softly and carry no stick.
Be ashamed, their message has been. And all too many Americans and virtually everyone in academia and the mainstream media bought it hook, line, and sinker, and have been selling it as hard as their little hearts can manage.
And then along came Donald Trump and blew that garbage narrative to smithereens.
In his ten-year-plus political career, he’s seen the entire weight of the U.S. government thrown at him as they attempted to throw him behind bars, he’s seen a calculated, corrupt attempt by the nation’s press to bring him down at any cost, and he’s survived two assassination attempts.
If anything, all that’s happened since he came down the Golden Escalator in 2015 has only made his belief in American exceptionalism stronger, as he reiterated at the Turning Point USA “Build the Red Wall” event in Phoenix on Friday.
We do not “apologize for American power,” he thundered, presumably making former presidents Obama and Biden, as well as the entire workforce at MS NOW, break out into cold sweats. “We are not ashamed of American might.”
