The legion of Democrats who think they can take the measure of Donald Trump will go at it beginning Wednesday night, each trying to figure out a way to stand out in a crowd of mediocrities.

President Trump is correct to be concerned about the European Union’s over-reliance on natural gas imports from Russia. In the interest of Western energy security, it is important that the president’s foreign policy team elevate the building of the Trans-Caspian Pipeline (TCP) to the top of America’s foreign policy priorities.

The D.C. Council is under fire and has some heavy lifting to do over the next 18 months, and for the first time since 1991, the voice of Jack Evans on fiscal affairs, redistricting matters and run-of-the-mill national Democratic Party priorities won’t be heard.

When an irresistible force meets an immovable object, so the old song goes, “something’s gotta give.” So, when the force is an originalist view of judicial authority and the object is the doctrine of stare decisis, which one gives? Justice Clarence Thomas says it has to be stare decisis.

The conceit of our age is that we can alter reality at a whim. We’re really that smart and powerful. We not only can control the planet’s weather, but we can defy God’s essential design for life, reflected in nature and cultures trillions of times a day.

First, take a deep breath. Now take a look at the Wall Street Journal. The otherwise fine newspaper editorially on Saturday blasted President Trump. For what? For not killing Iranians and blowing up Iranian targets to show how super our American power is.

President Trump had given U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement the go-ahead to "legally" begin removing more than 1 million illegals in our country. Now, after approximately two-and-a-half years of "resist at all costs," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has asked the president for more time. Mr. Trump, offering more consideration than he has been shown by the Democrats, has agreed. Offering a two-week delay, Congress now has a very short time to do what they could have done years ago.

Tough words softened by gentle deeds are preferable to gentle words trampled by rough and reckless action. President Trump vows to begin deporting illegal immigrants by the millions, a campaign promise that helped elect him and may well do so again. He didn't invent the chaos on the border, but he is the first president to try to do something about it. The nation yearns for an equitable immigration system that enables the orderly entry of foreign nationals without infringing the rights of law-abiding Americans. There's nothing in the president's words or deeds that dash that wish.

Recently, the Iranian military shot down a high-altitude U.S. drone over international waters in the Straight of Hormuz. There was no proportionate response by the United States. Instead, President Trump called off an attack against the targets due to the potential for collateral damage. This move told us that killing people would not be a proportionate response to the shooting down of an unmanned U.S. drone. Yet I believe that a proportionate response was required to avoid future such Iranian attacks.

Retired military Gen. Jack Keane said on national television that President Donald Trump is to be commended for his past few days of foreign policy regarding Iran -- specifically, for heading up "the first administration in 39 years to be on the strategic offensive with the Iranians." That's quite a feat.
