Having predicted last week in this space a seismic shock in the American midterm elections, and no such shock having occurred, I owe an acknowledgment of my…
The midterm elections were, unforeseen by me, as much a referendum on Donald Trump as upon President Joe Biden, and the question was particularly confused because of the internecine Republican struggle between Trump and his supporters, those who endorse Trump’s policies but not Trump, and those who still become wobbly at the knees with nostalgia for the Bush-Clinton days when the U.S.
No one could claim that what occurred on Tuesday was any sort of a vote of confidence for the administration. The polls generally proved quite accurate in predicting election results and there is no reason to doubt that they were also accurate in indicating that three quarters of Americans arewith the trajectory of the country and a substantial majority do not approve of the president or the Congress. As the polls also suggest, the majority does not think that Donald Trump is the answer either.
As persevering readers of this column would know, I have steadily supported Donald Trump because of his policy positions, as well as for reasons of long-standing personal friendship. In policy terms, he was right to oppose illegal immigration, oil imports, and to effectively end unemployment-by incentivizing through the tax system job-creating investment in the low income areas of America, and moving millions of unemployed into the workforce.
He was both right and courageous in resisting the assault upon the oil and gas industries while steadily tightening anti-pollution standards, and he was right to strengthen national defence, toughen sanctions on Iran and North Korea, and make it clear that if necessary the United States would remove the nuclear military capabilities of those countries by conventional military force.
