The always interesting Conrad Black writes at American Greatness about the question on many minds now: whither Donald John Trump? Not “whether,” “wither” nor “weather” but in fact whither, meaning “to what place or state.” Plainly put, what is his future, where does he go from here?
Black’s conclusion:
Trump remains by far the largest faction-head in American politics. He has done himself serious damage but it is not necessarily irreparable. (snip) If he learns anything from all this (and learning from his own mistakes hasn’t been his strong suit), he may be around for awhile yet. The idea that Washington will just go back to where it was before he arrived really is nonsense.
The causes Trump championed - populism, America first, immigration control - aren’t going away. They have legs, even if Trump proves too damaged to be their messenger henceforth. Hat tip to Power Line for the link.
