Marc Thiessen, The 10 best things Trump has done in 2018

By Marc A. Thiessen   [Editor’s note: While I take exception to some of his claims, where I regard 3 (his tough stance against Moscow, which was forced upon him by the Russiagate hoax) and 2 (pulling out of the Iran deal, which was in deference to Israel and perhaps his greatest foreign policy blunder) as mistakes, I like the author as (for the most part) objective and balanced), where his list gives us a perspective to contrast with each of our own.] In his second year in office, the list…
