The Politics of Strength

"There is nothing so likely to produce peace as to be well prepared to meet an enemy" -- George Washington When President Reagan was conducting a sound test before his weekly Saturday radio address on National Public Radio he said, "My fellow Americans, I'm pleased to tell you today that I've signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes." Of course, Reagan's words were not broadcast, but the word got out. Democrats everywhere were making appointments with their cardiologists. When President Trump told North Korea's Kim Jong-un that his nuclear button is bigger AND it works, Democrats again became paralyzed with fear and with trembling and gnashing of teeth. There were immediate calls for impeachment and an examination of his mental state.
