CNN performs a vital public service by putting the left's insanity on full display.

Trump Strong At Summit

As President Trump left the United States last week to attend the G-7 economic summit, the American media and Democrat presidential candidates bashed the president as an embarrassment. One media outlet wrote that Trump was heading "into a summit of world leaders in an increasingly isolated position."

But virtually everything about the news coverage is wrong. The United States has the world's largest economy. As such, President Trump dominated the G-7 meeting.

For example, Trump and Prime Minister Abe of Japan held a surprise press conference announcing a major trade deal ([link removed]) . Japan agreed to buy huge supplies of American agricultural products, a great deal for our farmers.

Late last week, China hit the U.S. with surprise tariffs, stoking panic on Wall Street. In response, Trump hit back by raising tariffs on Chinese goods. He also urged American companies to come home and hire American workers. (Here's an excellent analysis ([link removed]) of the current U.S./China relationship.)

Today, China ([link removed]) is asking to "get back to the [negotiating] table." China's vice premier told state media, "China is willing to resolve its trade dispute with the United States through calm negotiations and resolutely opposes the escalation of the conflict."

I'm sure it does! China has more to lose than we do.

If you turned on the TV this morning, you saw Trump and India's Narendra Modi, the leaders of the world's two largest democracies, holding a joint press conference discussing defense issues and economic opportunities.

Our left-wing media ask how a president as unpopular as Trump can accomplish anything. Well, Trump has the second highest approval rating ([link removed]) among the G-7 leaders.

Germany's Angela Merkel, Canada's Justin Trudeau and Britain's Boris Johnson are polling in the 30s. France's Emmanuel Macron is in the 20s. He would give anything to have Trump's approval rating!

But the media is right about this: Trump and America are isolated in one way. The economies of the European nations at the G-7 summit are falling like rocks.

The French economy is stagnant ([link removed]) . Britain's economy is shrinking ([link removed]) . German business confidence ([link removed]) is at a seven-year low. Meanwhile, the U.S. economy remains relatively healthy ([link removed]) .

I couldn't help notice something else watching the president walk into various rooms during the G-7 summit. As soon as he walked in, everything stopped and all eyes were on him.

I recall Obama acting like a teenager at similar events, taking selfies ([link removed]) with other world leaders. The contrast between a leader and a follower couldn't be more obvious.



Iran Lashes Out

Iran must really be feeling the heat from President Trump's sanctions. The Islamic Republic lashed out with sanctions of its own against the Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD), a U.S.-based think tank. The Iranians specifically targeted FDD Chief Executive Mark Dubowitz.

FDD's "sin" is that it is one of the most effective organizations keeping the pressure on the Iranian regime. In recent days, I was at FDD's headquarters discussing issues of mutual concern with its founder and President Cliff May.

But the wording of the Iranian statement also implied a threat against Dubowitz and FDD. And given the regime's support for terrorism and past plots against its opponents around the world (here ([link removed]) and here ([link removed]) ), it must be taken seriously.

State Department Spokeswoman Morgan Ortagus denounced Iran's threat, tweeting:

"The outlaw regime in Iran issued a threat today against @FDD, an American think tank, and its CEO. The U.S. takes the regime's threats seriously. We intend to hold Iran responsible for directly or indirectly compromising the safety of any American."

Dubowitz and FDD are standing firm. In a series of tweets, FDD declared ([link removed]) :

"FDD conducts independent research and analysis on national security issues. The Islamic Republic prohibits such freedoms at home, and would like to do so abroad as well. . . FDD considers its inclusion on any list put out by the regime as a badge of honor. . ."

In a separate interview, Mark Dubowitz told reporters:

"We are grateful for the outpouring of support from across the political and policy spectrum. Regardless of differences on the Iran issue, many Obama, Bush and Trump administration officials, members of Congress, and think tank experts have voiced their outrage at the regime's threats against FDD."

Our prayers are with Mark Dubowitz, Cliff May and all the talented staff and experts at FDD.



Peak TDS

Anyone who has run a business knows that it can be hard to find people with the right skills for jobs you are trying to fill. Well, CNN, the leader in fake news, just hired Andrew McCabe ([link removed]) .

You remember McCabe -- he was fired by the FBI for lying. McCabe has demonstrated his ability to lie, and CNN apparently saw something it liked.

Meanwhile, it seems Trump Derangement Syndrome has finally peaked at the "Clinton News Network." Yesterday, Duke University psychiatry professor Allen Frances ([link removed]) appeared on "Reliable Sources" with CNN's media reporter Brian Stelter. Incredibly, Professor Frances declared:

"Trump is as destructive a person in this century, as Hitler, Stalin, and Mao were in the last century. He may be responsible for many more million deaths than they were. He needs to be contained. . ."

What?!

Professor Frances is clearly in need of a psychiatrist. Comparing the president to the worst mass murderers of the 20th century is insane!

No wonder CNN is losing viewers ([link removed]) .
