Bugsy McGurk
President
Here it is....
He ratcheted down his anti-Islam rhetoric when in the Middle East.
He stayed on script, stayed off Twitter, avoided the "radical Islamic terrorism" stuff, and otherwise turned down his hate speech. And he showed at least the semblance of balance by meeting with the Palestinian leader.
After all, smart informed people know that what groups like ISIS want most is to depict a war between Islam and other religions. Trump played into that big time for a very long time. But he may finally be starting to listen to smart, informed people who know that fanning anti-Islam flames makes things worse, not better.
So how about that? I said something positive about Trump.
