Monday Short Cuts
Notable quotables from Ronald Reagan, Erick Erickson, George Soros, and more.
Insight: “I hope that when you’re my age you’ll be able to say, as I have been able to say: We lived in freedom; we lived lives that were a statement, not an apology.” —Ronald Reagan
Upright: “I think the difference between the moderates and the far-left is the difference between irresponsible and delusional.” —Brian Riedl of The Manhattan Institute
Observations: “It speaks highly of the President that he was willing to go to the [World Series] game and speaks poorly of Washington’s fans [that they booed him]. On the day the President addressed the nation to announce our soldiers had taken out the leader of ISIS the DC press corp was treating Al Baghdadi with more reverence than Trump and its residents were booing the President.” —Erick Erickson
Despicable: “Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, austere religious scholar at helm of Islamic State, dies at 48.” —Washington Post headline
Braying jenny: “You can’t take the pressure off and expect these groups not to reconstitute.” —former National Security Advisor Susan Rice criticizing Trump’s Middle East policy (Remember, her boss abandoned Iraq, which led to the creation of the Islamic State in the first place.)
Globalist birds of a feather: “[Elizabeth Warren] has emerged as the clear-cut person to beat. I don’t take a public stance, but I do believe that she is the most qualified to be president.” —George Soros
The BIG Lie: “Trump gave the middle class a tax cut that was negligible.” —Joe Biden
Alpha jackass: “President Trump, perhaps inspired by Goebbels and the propagandists of the Third Reich, seems to employ this tactic that the bigger the lie, the more obscene the injustice, the more dizzying the pace of this bizarre behavior, the less likely we are to be able to do something about it.” —R. Francis O'Rourke
And last… “Washington DC booing Trump at a baseball game the same day the US took out the top terror target in the world says more about Washington DC than it does about Trump.” —Stephen Miller
