Hewitt and Selena Zito Discuss Why Evangelical Support for Trump Doesn't Waver Through the Storms!

As the world marked International Women’s Day, an international incident reminded us what real repression looks like — and how silent many so-called “feminists” have become.

As their bus left Australia for a flight back to Iran, members of Iran’s women’s soccer team flashed “SOS” hand signals pleading for help. Iranian state media had branded them traitors for refusing to sing the regime’s national anthem before a match.

It’s easy to see why they were afraid to go home. Under Iran’s Islamist theocracy, women possess few rights and defiance carries brutal consequences.

As the Australian government dithered, President Trump urged officials to act and offered asylum in America.

For years, American feminist groups have called the president sexist. Yet when real women risked everything for freedom, he moved quickly to protect them — while the so-called feminists did nothing.

This year marks 25 years since September 11, 2001.

Since then, America has grown older, and soberer.

We’ve learned the hard way that even the world’s greatest military cannot remake the Middle East. After Iraq and Afghanistan, few Americans want another long conflict in a distant land.

But let’s be clear: Iran isn’t some random target. For nearly fifty years, its regime has waged war against us— directly and through terrorist proxies —working constantly to destabilize the region and beyond.

It has taken Americans hostage, pursued nuclear weapons, funded terror groups, aided our enemies, and even plotted to assassinate our president. Reports indicate it was preparing attacks on U.S. interests in the Middle East.

Iran’s evil leaders abused America for decades with impunity. Good riddance.

It’s difficult to escape the conclusion that many Americans hate President Trump so much they’d rather see the butcher Khamenei alive, the Iranian people under his boot and mullahs with a nuclear weapon than see Trump triumph.

This level of “Trump Derangement Syndrome” well, it’s toxic.

Had Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio beaten Clinton and done these same things, Reagan and Bush-era politicos would have cheered. Today’s most adamant Trump haters would have been leading the ovation.

When Obama ordered the mission to kill bin Laden, I don’t recall his critics refusing to credit him. They loved America more than they disliked “44.”

And old guard Republicans who battled FDR throughout the ’30s quickly rallied to his side when Pearl Harbor happened. Country comes or should come before politics.

Perhaps someone will break free of the anti-Trump cult and show the way out.

We are waiting for that first turning from the “TDS” crowd. We may wait a long time.
