Of Brexit, the British decision to leave the EU, Trump said recently, “People, countries want their own identity, and the U.K. wanted its own identity … so if you ask me, I believe others will leave.” Do you suppose he is correct in this assumption? Is it not somewhat refreshing to hear a transparent truth? How could Europe’s elites not see the populist forces rising? The Europeans long to regain their lost sovereignty and national identity, and they were willing to pay a price to achieve it. Was Trump not right in saying what he said? Again, is it so shocking to hear a transparent truth? Apparently, the globalist crowd cannot comprehend a people’s desire for nationalism. Given the strength of ethnic nationalism in Europe, neither the Eurozone nor the EU is likely to survive the decade. We should prepare for that day, not pretend that what is taking place across Europe, and indeed worldwide, is some passing fervor of nationalism.
President Trump should “build the wall, secure the border, impose tariffs, cut taxes, free up the American economy, bring the factories home, create millions of jobs and keep us out of any new wars” that have little bearing on America’s vital national interests. With few exceptions, wars tend to be fatal to presidencies.
