GOP Unity Key to Passing Tax Reform | Hugh Hewitt with Rep. Jason Smith

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.

Hugh Hewitt: "Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is Now Toxic

As we watch the fall of Iran’s hardline Islamist regime, nothing has been more moving than the palpable, heartfelt joy of the country’s women.

They’re dancing in public. Singing. Throwing off the hijabs that have been forced on them for decades by a theocratic dictatorship.

America acted to protect our own citizens and interests. But it’s also glorious to witness the unfolding liberation of a people who’ve endured such systematic humiliation and repression.

Self-described American feminists should look deep into their own souls. For years, they’ve invoked “The Handmaids Tale.” Yet when confronted with real women living under genuine, brutal subjugation, they’re silent, or even—like Kamala Harris—opposed to the action that is freeing them. 

That’s not solidarity. It’s selective outrage. May the women of Iran women secure the freedom so long denied them.

The world order can be reshaped in just a matter of hours—or even just minutes.

Just as Iranians were starting their new work week on Saturday, leaders in Israel and the United States launched an attack. By the end of the day, the second supreme leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ayatollah Khamenei was dead.

For more than four decades Iran has been the main source of state-sponsored terror. It also sought to attain nuclear weapons.

President Trump ordered direct bombing of Iran’s nuclear sites just last year, but the regime resisted any agreement that would prevent the development of weapons grade materials. By Saturday the gig was up. Israel was not going to stand by as Iran gained nuclear capacity, and neither was the United States.

President Trump has called to the people of Iran to seize political control, but the future is by no means clear.

Pray that the right leadership emerges to point the Iranian people through the right door.

As President Trump said on Saturday to the Iranian people: “This is the moment for action. Do not let it pass.”
