Trump at Davos

Power Line’s Scott Johnson quotes some of President Trump’s speech at the Davos gathering of billionaire machers. I believe you will like what he has to say to those gathered for the World Economic Forum.
[T]o embrace the possibilities of tomorrow, we must reject the perennial prophets of doom and their predictions of the apocalypse. They are the heirs of yesterday’s foolish fortune-tellers — and I have them and you have them, and we all have them, and they want to see us do badly, but we don’t let that happen.

They predicted an overpopulation crisis in the 1960s, mass starvation in the ’70s, and an end of oil in the 1990s. These alarmists always demand the same thing: absolute power to dominate, transform, and control every aspect of our lives.
Chicken Little was a hysteric, so is Greta Thunberg. If you’d like to read more of Trump’s optimistic speech at Davos, John Hinderaker of Power Line has a much longer excerpt. It is a powerful preview of the upbeat message upon which Trump will run for reelection. Enjoy.
