The West is the best

But not according to the left.  Mostly a good article ( Joel Kotkin ) , but it ends badly, as we see here:

Some people in Western countries are reacting to this abandonment of culture and heritage. Unfortunately, many of them are attracted to demagogues like Donald Trump or Marine Le Pen

You might even call this a rather slick lie.  Here this guy pretty much confirming everything that Trump has said, and then turns around, and sticks a knife in his back.

Nice try.  It isn't "xenophobic" nor "racist" to secure your own borders.  It is almost ridiculous that you have to defend this with the vigor that must be brought to bear.

He does have a lot of points there.  One may wonder how the whole thing could have happened.  It think it happened after many years of leftist ( cultural Marxism)  control of our culture.  You have to take the control away from them, and begin the repairs that must be made.   Don't know if Trump will do this, but his proposals are a step in the right direction.

Update:

This is a rather significant bit of information that most people have not heard about.  The reason is that our universities don't teach it anymore, as the article points out.  THIS POINT HAS A CRYING NEED TO BE BROADCAST OVER AND OVER AGAIN SO THAT IT WILL BE HEARD AND UNDERSTOOD.  Our government has been failing us in the most horrific way imaginable.  The author said that they abandoned our history.  They did worse than that.  They have abandoned us in every way.  The cure for this is new leaders.  There is not likely to be any other way to correct this.
