Calling Out Predators

Do you have a problem with President Donald Trump describing members of the murderous Salvadorean gang MS-13 as “animals”? Apparently all manner of progressives find his formulation troubling. Which I think tells us more about progressives than it does about the President.

I enjoyed a wisecrack I saw somewhere online which said Trump had, with the comparison, maligned the good name of animals. Upon reflection, perhaps “hyenas” would have been a more apt analogy, as they too are ugly pack-hunting predators.
