Thursday Short Cuts

Insight: “The Fed was largely responsible for converting what might have been a garden-variety recession, although perhaps a fairly severe one, into a major catastrophe. … Far from the depression being a failure of the free-enterprise system, it was a tragic failure of government.” —Milton Friedman (1912-2006)

Upright: “Trump seems a revolutionary, but that is only because he is loudly undoing a revolution.” —Victor Davis Hanson

Alpha Jackass: “We have had a leader who’s repeatedly demeaned women, wants to defund organizations that benefit women, calling on the media to shut up, specifically wants to give preferential treatment based on religion. Are these values really much different than the Taliban’s?” —Whoopi Goldberg

Braying Jenny: “[Trump] believes that he was elected as a dictator.” —Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Demo-gogues: “Instead of focusing on jobs and wages, Republicans have decided to launch an all-out assault on affordable health care in America. Their plan is to repeal the Affordable Care Act, slash Medicaid, and destroy the sacred Medicare guarantee that has protected generations of Americans. The Republicans’ plan won’t make America great again. It will make America sick again.” —Nancy Pelosi

The BIG Lie: “[W]e’re capitalist and that’s just the way it is.” —Nancy Pelosi

Non Compos Mentis: “[I]n our sanctuary cities, [illegals] are not disobeying the law. These are law-abiding citizens. It enables them to be there without being reported to ICE in case of another crime that they might bear witness to.” —Nancy Pelosi

And last… “I have spoken more with Donald Trump in the last month … than I have spoken with Barack Obama in the last eight years.” —Paul Ryan
