    VDH is without a doubt the most lucid, cogent speaker in the U.S. He has an uncanny ability of summarizing any situation from a birds eye level and explaining it so as to be understood by all. Brilliant man. Incredibly important man.

      Although I respect him very much I remember his support of George W. Bush who clearly lied this nation into a war. I think that is an error on his part. I do agree on his statements on Obama, although I'm not all that familiar with them. I certainly agree with his assessment of Donald Trump.

    As someone who wasted his youth on a worthless law degree, I can tell you that the US has way too many lawyers, and way too many law schools. The job market for lawyer collapsed about 10 years ago, and law schools responded by pushing social justice activism as a recruitment tool. They're training movie lawyers, instead of real ones, and jacking up tuition to ridiculous levels. The graduates come out financially ruined, propagandized, and barely employable. I repaid my loans by leaving the field and working construction, and I wish I'd never wasted my time on it. They send me alumni donation request forms, trumpeting their new social justice initiatives.

We've seen this in the acting profession for centuries, maybe 80% sector unemployment due to insufficient demand for such a size of service provider pool. More recently the growth of university "education" has created similar rats-in-a-sack situations resulting in both XR and WuFlu reaction - who controls the limited funding gets the science they want, when there are so many grads chasing their academic career dreams and willing to comply, wittingly or not.

    @teresacowser981 Před 3 lety +2

    Hi Mr. Hanson - Thank you for having this insightful discussion with John Anderson. I learned a lot and crystalized my opinions from hearing you speak.
    One thing I'd like to address about your comments that is not so complimentary is your opinion of Trump as a person. Maybe when you talk about his personality traits, you are describing what the "Left" focuses on, but I think you also feel the same way. I'm not wanting to persuade you to think otherwise, I just want you to know that a lot of people, including me, find him refreshing!
    Trump is not an eloquent speaker by any means, but that's what is so appealing about him to so many people after decades and decades of slick-speaking politicians. I don't care about his sentence structure, the range of his vocabulary, or the depth of his intellect. What I do care about is when he speaks, I feel it. I know what he means. I see it in his face, I hear it in his voice, I understand his heart, and I believe him! He is transparent and sincere. Even when he's exaggerating or boasting, he knows he's doing it and he doesn't try to hide it or make you believe it! The press don't get that! Instead, they fact check him! Idiots. He's warm, authentic and optimistic. He loves people and he loves the United States of America! I agree that Trump can be crude at times, but generally not in front of an audience. I've never heard a filthy tirade come out of his mouth like I have with other politicians.
    The other point I'd like to make is that millions of people LOVE Donald Trump. (I cringe when you say that people just tolerate him and will dump him when his usefulness is gone. Only certain people will do that. Elites, politicians, users. But they are of no value to him other than what they can do for him to further his cause, so it's mutual. It's a very organic approach for someone from New York who grew up in the Bronx, don't you think? It's not how I live my life nor a philosophy I would recommend, but it's who he is. I respect him for that.)
    To the common man (and a few others), he is a hero, and American hero, and true Americans don't forget their heroes. He is a patriot. He will always belong with other patriots. He is a man of the people. Real people (the likes of me vs the likes of politicians, Hollywood, intellectuals, etc.) will always honor him for what he's done. He is the man who said out loud what we don't have a voice to say-no more of this insanity! He is the man who has sacrificed what we don't have and never will possess - his ease, his comfort, his wealth, his standing - to take up our cause and fight for us, to fight for our rights, our freedoms, our families, our traditions, our laws, our American way of life, our Judeo-Christian society and our God.
    You'll probably never see this comment, but that's ok. I feel better for having written it, and every time I hear you say something derogatory about Donald Trump, I will feel better for having stood up for him, even if I'm the only one that knows.

      Allowing everyone to bring their culture here and selfishly spread it everywhere only shows that you had no faith in the value of your own culture. When you have a home, where things are tidy and in order, and peaceful and brotherly, would you let any vandal enter and do as they please? Rip your garden to shreds, make your living room so dirty that you can't recognize it anymore? No? You would not? Well, your country experienced just that. How about inviting people to come here and adopt and share your values, not detract them? Don't be surprised at the results.... ignorance of the ground rules has its own way of biting back! When a person migrates to another, foreign country, I would expect them to be grateful to be let in. I would expect them to learn how we live, the language we speak, the cultural values we hold dear. That seems natural and normal to me. I would also expect them to pull their share of responsibility and work for our collective, and not let them siphon off all the welfare systems available, just because they can.
      Canada will not let anyone enter who can't support themselves. They are right about that.

      I don't agree. Technology may have enabled us to laugh, and the image in the Silent Age was nearly always comedic. But now technology has usurped entertainment and become an end in itself. The technology advertises itself by the damage it does, such as Twitter and the career-ruining tweet.
      Imagine that by some quirk of physics, sound could still not be married to the moving image. Surely the mullahs in Iran would be rolling in the aisles laughing their heads off at their own modern-day Charlie Chaplin or Laurel & Hardy equivalents (with the women giving back as good as the men!). What films other than comedy could you make in such circumstances?
      The imagery of violence and gloom and the negativity of frivolous cynical humour that abounds on the internet has led humanity up the garden path: and we don't know how to return to .... mere entertainment. We used to know how to laugh. Our forebears would be ashamed of us now with our glut of misery guts so-called new visual entertainment and our obsession with the ridiculously tiny, tyrannical screens that are our constant companions. Don't you think that we have forgotten how to laugh at the same things because the internet has made culture a swamp?
      Look at the video games market. Forget having any future guitar maestros: otherwise talented kids are spending hours, days and days playing ridiculously repetitive video games. And if the Mullahs ever needed a jaunty live piano sound to lift the occasion of their Silent movie, there are currently thirty million people learning to play the piano in China. Will the United States run out of church organists in twenty years' time? It may have to look abroad!
      If we don't even retain an appetite for comedy, we will lose our civilisation very fast.

    When I was young the expression "it's a free country" was common. People meant it, believed it and were proud of it. For decades now I have very rarely heard it. Few believe it. Their tongue wouldn't turn in their mouth to say it. If freedom is mentioned it is more often to sneer at it .

    Always a pleasure to follow "Victor Davis Hanson", especially through my eyes and the many experiences I have had of different ideologies, cultures and ethnic groups. I now live in Italy,, and it is amazing how countries change when the population becomes envious of what others have, but are unwilling to accept that this wealth comes from applying oneself, by developing their innate capabilities. So, with a saying that is often heard in this country.can explain what is a major problem, ...."persons that are incompetent become politicians" ....and corruption becomes endemic.
    It would be great to meet "Victor Davis Hanson" personally sometimes in the future.
