Op-Eds

Blue and White leader’s decision to join PM Netanyahu and form a unity government was not a political betrayal. His act was not that of a once-in-a-generation patriot who gives up everything for his land and his people.

How do we get through the Coronavirus? A nurse gave very simple advice: “act like you have it.” Do everything you possibly can to not share your germs with others, because in so doing you will improve your own chances of not getting it if you don’t.

China Virus 19 has brought home to more Americans than ever before that we absolutely have to divorce from China. We can agree to share custody of the kids, holiday visitation arrangements, even alimony. But the child support has to stop as soon as possible.

This is a moment in history that calls for a uniquely strong and singularly focused president who can manage crises effectively, demand results with appropriate speed, cut through malarkey mercilessly, fire and replace people who cannot meet the moment, and also energize an enormous economy. There could not be a better president for this time than Donald Trump.

I am like so many supporters of President Trump who are so disgusted with the Corrupt Journalist Corps and their nonstop lies that I have no patience to watch or hear their “coverage” of COVID-19, which basically can be summarized as, “Trump is to blame for the disease.” But regardless of the politics, I take this thing very, very seriously.

I went to the supermarket today to pick up some food, a real supermarket like the one you go to: places like Ralphs and Albertsons, Kroger’s and Food Lion, Walmart and Schnucks, Piggly Wiggly and Winn-Dixie. I have been shopping there for 15 years since moving to Orange County. And I could not believe my eyes: The shelves were empty! There was no food in the supermarket! It was like Stalin’s Ukraine or Communist Bernie Sanders’ Moscow. It was like Elizabeth Warren’s fridge, sans the beer.

As far as we know, the person who attended CPAC after becoming infected with Coronavirus passed his infection to no one while he was there. It nonetheless made for interesting times — for Senator Ted Cruz, who went into self-quarantine, and for… me.

This coronavirus first appeared in November 2019. By December 31, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan knew about it and were on alert. Singapore knew on January 4. South Korea on January 8. By January 9 the World Health Organization and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control were onto it. But the media was obsessed at the time with the nonsensical still-born Pelos impeachment.

Unlike the baseball movie with its famous meme “If you build it, they will come,” Gantz will find that he cannot build a government, and they will not come.

I don’t know whether the Trump administration has done the world’s best job in responding to the coronavirus. Who in the world knows? Shall we assume that everyone in the governments of South Korea, Italy, and other civilized free countries that have been impacted is a fool? Maybe so. Maybe not.
