It’s easy to get caught up in the American political spin cycle of my guy verses their guy. But two public appearances, in close proximity to each other give us an opportunity to step back and see the bigger picture.
Some conservatives have been wrapped up around the axle about whether they can still support Trump even after (fill in the blank reason). But the political spin cycle has been cranked up to eleven lately and it’s only going to get worse when Biden drops the entirely ridiculous talking points he’s expected to bring tonight.
We have grown almost accustomed to the ‘literally Hitler’ smear he and his fellow travellers fling our way. We know he will cherry pick (or invent from whole cloth) data about the ‘secure border’ or crime, or the ‘wonderful state of the economy’ (see: Bidenomics dot com for the refutation of the economics claims). And anything bad will be laid at the feet of Trump and the GOP, just like Obama spent 8 years blaming Bush for everything in his own administration.
As tiresome as all of that is, there’s a HUGE hole in his running of that strategy. It assumes there his claims cannot be compared to to any other reference point. The obvious reference point is Trump. But there’s an even better one.
It involves an economics speech delivered in Spanish that electrified an audience in America.
Say what? That’s right.
Argentina’ Javier Milei came to CPAC and literally gave an economics speech in Spanish. It wasn’t packed with his infamous digs about sh*tlibs, there were no chainsaws, the only ‘red meat’ line in the whole message was the closing one about Making Argentina Great Again.
The great guys over on Bill Whittle (dot com) did a good breakdown of what that speech was and why it was important. We thank them for letting us feature their content and encourage our readers to visit both the site and their youtube channel.
Long story short, the speech made waves because he took a country that was falling off of an economic cliff and he has put it back onto the path of solvency. More than that, the country is no longer bleeding red ink. For the first month in forever, Argentina has taken in more money than it has spent.
Why is this important?
Simple:
Joe Biden (with help from Schumer/McConnell a.k.a. ‘The Firm’) has been printing a Trillion dollars every 100 days. They’ve been doing it by adding that amount to the national debt.
Yet Joe is STILL upset with the GOP because they aren’t letting him spend nearly as much as he would like to.
Joe’s plan is to talk big about growing the economy while spend us into insolvency.
Javier’s plan was to admit the problem, address it, and make hard decisions to put the country back onto solid foundation.
Joe has run into the age-old problem about leftist ideas looking good on paper but failing the real-world test of implementation. Don’t worry. Little inconveniences like that won’t stop him from doubling down.
Javier has taken his theory, put it into practice, and shown that it delivered results.
His solutions looks a lot like the solutions that have been pressed by the right since forever.
All it requires is a political will of steel and a willingness to take one of Milei’s chainsaws to the things the government really shouldn’t be involved with in the first place.
One more thing. If you are looking at a way to REALLY antagonize the Biden backers, here is a suggestion:
Trump has announced a live stream response to Biden’s STFU speech. (not a typo).
Details of time and platform will probably be announced on his TruthSocial account.
Can you imagine how heated they will be if Trump’s viewing numbers were to eclipse the so-called news channels ratings?
Their rage would be nothing less than delicious.
John The Baptist: A Rude Awakening Precedes A Great Awakening.
This timely little tome chronicles the politically incorrect ministry of one of God’s most effective wildmen, John the Baptist, who prepared the way for Christ’s ministry.
The abrasive message of repentance John preached 2000 years ago is still confrontational and offensive today — but it is also life-changing.
In our putrid, worldly culture that has turned away from God, this book is a must-read for every Christian.
Available in paperback for those of you who like the feel of the pages in your hot, little hands, on Kindle to keep it right at your fingertips, and as an epic Audiobook.
