World and National Notes: Trump Dines at Eiffel Tower; Money Keeping Hapless GOP From Passing Health Care Reform; USA Will Have to Act Against North Korean Nut; GOP Hardly Helps Trump At All, Which Will Work Against Them at the Polls

TOWSON, Maryland, Thursday, July 13, and Friday, July 14, 2017: On a day when the President of the United States and his wife had dinner with the French President, Emmanuel Macron, and his wife, with the meal being served at a restaurant on the second "floor" of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the American DNC writers found it snarky and hip to write about President Trump's compliment of Mrs. Macron.  Before I tell you what our President said, I should tell you that Mrs. Macron is twice the age (give or take) of her husband.  She was his teacher or professor or something of that nature, and one thing led to another and voila, matrimony. And so, while the French Leader is uncommonly young, his wife is not.  So Mr. Trump merely noted how beautiful she continues to be.  The DNC and their snarky hipsters did not like it.  

Meanwhile, back in the Congress, the GOP rolled out a new health care bill.  It wasn't a whole lot better than the old one.  The people pulling the strings in the GOP - who, sadly, are not elected - don't want Obamashame repealed.  The voters do and by wide margins.  Almost every senator and congressman in the GOP promised (PROMISED!!!) to at least repeal the lousy thing.  But the string-pullers don't want anything of it.  A whole lot of GOP losers are about to capitulate.

None of this, of course, even compares to the terror which may arise from the sociopath who runs North Korea, and the evil he apparently is willing to rain down on the rest of the world.  If I lived in Seoul, South Korea, which is just across the North Korean border, I would pack my family up and leave.  At some point the west - probably led by these United States - will have to move militarily against the North, because the North is moving swiftly and with a purpose to develop weapons it can use against the West and, in particular, the USA.  Some experts say the most recent test launch of an IBM proved that theNorth can already reach Alaska.  This is terrible.  To prevent the North from attacking the USA or other Western locations, the Americans will have to take this nut out.  Sadly, the odds are that he will be able to launch an attack against the South Koreans no matter how successful a USA attack on the North is.

Here in the USA, the Ultra Left is so blind in its anti-Trump campaign that it is not uniting with the duly elected American administration to move against the North and rally the rest of the world to join the cause.

I believe that the GOP incumbents who are not backing the Republican President, Mr. Trump, will pay a heavy price at the polls for their choice.  It was the American People who elected Mr. Trump, and it is those same voters who are seething in their anger against GOP insiders who are letting Trump dangle in the wind while the Ultra Left circles him like vultures.

One race to follow is the one in Alabama, where veteran GOP House Member Mo Brooks (R - Huntsville) is running for the Senate seat vacated by Attorney General Jeff Sessions.  His opponent is the choice of Senate President Mitch McConnell.  Brooks is a Tea Party regular and a member of the tightly knit and conservative Freedom Alliance in the House.  McConnell doesn't like the Tea Party and wants nothing to do with the Freedom Alliance in the Senate.  He is pouring money into the campaign of Luther Strange, an attorney who was chosen by the Alabama Governor, Robert Julian Bentley (born February 3, 1943) to serve as Senator until a Special Election on December 12 of this year.  Bentley also backs Strange.  

Brooks has picked up an endorsement from Mark Levin, the powerful and Essential Conservative Leader who has a talk show heard nationwide, including on many powerful Alabama radio stations.  Levin is also the author of a number of New York Times Best Sellers, including one which is currently number one on the Times Non-Fiction Best Seller Compilation.

Credible and Incisive also endorses Brooks, for whatever that might be worth,
