  • Joel Kotkin’s Spiked article has worthwhile points, but throughout he has to trash Trump. In speaking of the absolutely criminal lawfare waged against him, Kotkin has this to say…

    “Indeed, they only succeeded in making the Democrats appear as the vengeful ones – a trait more readily associated with Trump himself…”

    Kotkin is part of that imperial progressive class and he can’t see it.
