Peggy’s Folly

WSJ’s Noonan just can’t help herself, taking another shot at Trump in her weekend editorial “Republicans, Stand Against Excess.” Get over yourself, Peggy; there will never be another Reaganesque  President in a country this polarized. And I’ve had enough of these conservatives, Mitch McConnell included, who are now parroting the democrat’s January 6 mantra about the “violent insurrection meant to stop a constitutionally mandated process.” Please. We are speaking of an insurrection whose poster child was unarmed, in a horned headdress, face painted and carrying a Trump flag?  Right. Sure there were some bad actors in the crowd. But like the rare and out-of-place Confederate flag and the Trump hats that resulted in the media labeling the Canadian trucker protest as racist, the vast majority of the crowd appeared more like tourists, without malicious intent. Unlike the summer’s BLM riots, for example. If Ms. Noonan truly wants to “stand against excess,” she should start with her own.
