I have written this knowing that if you praise Donald Trump in Spain, you are automatically approved as a fascist, which does not bother me since I have long assumed that approval that satisfies mediocre people with little capacity for judgment. Also because there is an irrepressible component of political incorrectness in me that, on many occasions, induces me to media provocation, perhaps in order to stir consciences. I don't know, also because I felt like it.
Yes, the same ignorant people in Spain who are scandalized to learn that Mussolini and Hitler were socialists and that Franco applied, as no one has ever applied, socialist policies are the ones who demonize Donald Trump, as the embodiment of the worst political values. But, if we make the effort to overcome those prejudices, fueled to the extreme by the media, and analyze the facts, we will discover the fallacy installed in the collective imagination of the single thought.
Although there are multiple factors that influence who the presidents were who involved the US in the Great War, World War II, or the Vietnam War, the truth is that they were all, as Democrats, close to the current Spanish progressives. Then and detailing, it turns out that the deadly Browning M1917 machine gun, or the Manhattan Project and its apotheosis Hiroshima, or Agent Orange that genetically devastated the Mekong Delta were promoted under the mandates of Wilson, Roosevelt and Kennedy, the latter a true mythical and iconic reference for those who label me as a fascist. We are doing well, because a self-respecting progressive must always conduct himself by the theoretical and well-meaning "No to War".
But jumping forward in time and going to the president before Trump, also a Democrat, Barack Obama, we find that as soon as he arrives he is given the Nobel Peace Prize. It's a good thing they gave it to him, because that must have influenced the guy to try not to disappoint such a distinction. And I say it's a good thing because, even so, the Shiite Muslim progressive Husein Obama kept the US at war longer and in more international conflicts than any other previous president. What's more, he armed the Islamic State, carried out 506 attacks in 7 countries and caused more than 400 civilian deaths; being more specific, the guru of the globalist left launched 23,144 bombs in 2015 or 26,171 in 2016 throughout our world. Of course, Leire Pajín referred to him, regarding his meeting with Zapatero, as the "next historical event that will occur on this planet", thus creating the aura that every progressive messiah must have.
After giving this irrefutable historical review of the peak war moments of the largest power on the planet and after having demonstrated that these moments were managed by presidents politically close to the current disoriented Spanish progressives, as well as after having made it clear that Obama has been the most warlike president of the US, we come to Donald Trump. I know that, at this point in the article, the good progressive reader is quite uncomfortable because I have thrown the sticks of the shade. We are still doing well. Trump is sexist, a womanizer, rude, arrogant, tacky, uncultured and the best president of the US, after Abraham Lincoln. It is true that he has declared several wars: on the media, on the establishment and on tolerant do-gooding. However, in terms of the use of military force, he is currently light years away from his predecessor, whom the Spanish left admires so much.
He is a patriot who is there out of love for his country, in fact, he only charges a symbolic euro a year compared to the best salary in the world of a president of his predecessor, and he puts the interests of his constituents first in a forceful way, without complexes. His basic strategy consists of generating tension through verbal conflict, including insults and base threats, in order to obtain the initiative and thus control the rhythm and cadence of future events. Then, when it suits him because he considers that he is going to obtain sufficient benefit, he stages a turn and presents himself as a conciliatory and essential leader in the face of the agreement reached. He plays the Good Cop, Bad Cop, but assuming both roles that he plays at different times. It is happening with North Korea, it happened with the EU, with the UN and NATO, with Iran, with Mexico, with Canada and it will also happen with China. He induced each of those conflicts, took them to the peak and generated the solution that suited his country.
Donald Trump is an impressive statesman who does not care about appearances, exactly the opposite of what happens with the leaders who denounce him, for example, Pedro Sánchez himself, who lies even in his doctoral thesis without batting an eye and presenting himself as the most handsome ¿? of the henhouse selling the ridiculous and false progressive honesty. What is incomprehensible is that there are Spaniards who vote for the one who does not get off the Falcon even to go to family weddings, who are the same ones who demonize Trump. The point comes to conclude this article and to write the reflection that I wanted to capture before starting to write it. Here it goes: the worst president, for the progressives, of the world's leading power, Donald Trump, would never agree with those who had as an unrenounceable and explicit objective to liquidate the United States of America. (There I have given it both to "El Guapo"* and to those who support him)
I hope I have contributed to rethinking who to admire, what to denounce and the reasons for the scale of values of some, those who go around labeling and giving lessons.
*NOTE: "El Guapo" is the nickname of Financial Times and the AFP Agency. It is incomprehensible because the guy is uglier than Frankenstein. Maybe it's fine irony, which then yes.
