Mission Statement: This blog reviews the news of the day in light of 242 years of American history. "Nationalism," a modern day pejorative, has been our country's politic throughout history, until 2008. Obama changed that narrative. Trump is seeking a return to our historical roots. Midknight Review supports this return to normality.
A growing number of Libs now admit to the lifely fact that Trump will survive his first term:
. . . . voluntarily giving up the powers and immunities of the presidency makes no sense for someone in Trump’s position. As president, he is protected from federal indictment (under current Justice Department interpretations) and likely from state prosecution as well (though that issue has never been tested in court), and he has a wide range of options for his political defense that he has yet to exploit to the fullest. Not only can he reward those who stick with him and try to punish those who don’t; he can also use the presidency to shape events internationally and at home in the hope of rallying support and making it difficult to remove him from office. I wouldn’t underestimate the lengths to which he could go to stay in power (Paul Starr at American Prospect, a Left leaning propaganda site).
