Trump’s just following in the footsteps of his predecessor. That doesn’t make his behavior remotely morally acceptable, but it does raise a really, really important question: Where’s the intellectual consistency with regard to POTUSes prostrating themselves before tyrants?

Democrats decrying Trump today gave Obama a pass when he let Putin get away with murder (literally, in some cases). And conservatives who criticized Obama for his weak spine should be up in arms today. All conservatives; not just some.

Yep. Intellectual consistency needs to be consistent. Otherwise, it’s meaningless.

No matter what letter you’ve got after your name.
