Drowning Babies
Left wingers assume that saying what a supposed intention of a government program happens to be is all that is needed to keep a government program going. Don’t throw out the baby with the bath water! they say to people who question the program.
Right wingers, for wont of a better label, say that the results of a program show that it is useless or even counterproductive. But, the bath has drowned the baby! they say to the left wingers who are deaf, and or are incapable or are unwilling to understand what the right winger is saying.

David Warren on Carney
Indeed, Mr Carney may be worse than the Trudeau child, because his empty qualifications will confuse people, and Canadians are easily confused. He will be an ideal victim for Donald Trump, who fights rough sometimes, but is genuinely smart.

Chesterton on Great Men
We never hear of great men until the time when all other men are small.
Case in point: Trump!

Zelensky has to keep the grift going
How to explain Zelensky’s strange behavior? He seems bent on having his country destroyed. He surely knows he has no cards, and Trump is offering him a dignified escape.
Zelensky is a grifter who either doesn’t want to be found out or wants to keep the grift going. Looking at it that way, his behavior can then seem rational. Zelensky, knowing that Trump & Vance were on to him, decided to appeal to the progressives who were worshipping him. And what better way to stay in their good graces than by making a scene with Trump. Even if Trump was substantively correct, Zelensky knew his left wing supporters would ignore that and see him as being bullied and thus heroic. And even if these people pledging support for him, like Trudeau and Starmer, had no cards either, it’s not important because he’s still a shining bauble in these peoples’ eyes. And so Zelensky’s grift can continue.
