Trump's Counter-Revolution, In General

Trump has a lot of good points.

The left refuses to acknowledge this.

OTOH, it's the commonest thing in the world to have a good point and still be wrong.

I think we're caught in a pretty familiar cycle now.

The left lost its mind. The other side is reversing a lot of that--and it's hard not to cheer for it. Indeed, it's bizarre not to cheer for it.

But it's easy to fall into too much agreement. He's certainly not right about everything.

The Tren de Aragua deportations are a good example--there's something just objectively good about it. And something just objectively bad about the left's passionate refusal to acknowledge that.

But this is exactly the kind of case in which--seems to me--the law has to step in and make sure that the rights of innocent people aren't being violated and the system isn't being wrecked.

Exactly the kind of case that needs to be handed over to and decided by SCOTUS.

We don't want to just become the mirror image of the left, which recognizes the objective badness of turning away at the border poor people seeking a better life...but fails/refuses to think the next obvious thought: if we don't do it, the nation will be wrecked. We can feel sympathy for them, and should. But no borders, no country, and no border enforcement, no borders.

Anyway.
