Donald Trump was in East Palestine, Ohio, on Wednesday. This was the best day of his ex-presidency, without a doubt. What a contrast to the crusty, old man who went overseas and couldn't kiss up to the Ukrainians enough. It's always the foreigners the left cares about – the ones coming here illegally, those in Ukraine. Now, again, I generally side with the Ukrainians, but look, we have problems here. When you find the time to go across the ocean but can't find the time to go an hour by plane to see a major disaster, that tells us what's going on. In fact, it's not just foreigners. Anybody who's not a normal person always takes priority. If you built this country, feed it, fuel it, defend it, you don't matter to them. You're at the back of the line. But this is the best of Trump – going and showing solidarity with normal people is exactly what he did to win last time. It's the best day of his ex-presidency.
