“There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”

“Most of what Obama cautioned, heralded, and recommended is now meaningless. Just about all of it has been overturned, nullified, or just simply erased by Trump. Talk, as they say, is cheap. The advocacy media loves talk. That’s one reason why they loved Obama. The loved his eloquence and his intelligence. But there is more to a successful president than talk — a successful president must execute. It’s not the talkative branch, it’s the executive branch. As an executive who executes, Donald Trump knows this. He declares a goal, works ferociously to achieve it, withstands the criticism of his opponents, and backs up his talk with an accomplishment – all of which is mocked, fact-checked, and ridiculed by the advocacy media. Frankly, Trump was elected president partly because he’s gutsy enough to call out the media for their excessively critical fake news.”
