Tough, Proud And Honest: Trump At The UN
Editorial New York Post September 19, 2017
Rarely has the UN hall heard a more honest appraisal of the global scene or a stronger vow of resolve to fight threats than President’s Trump’s first address to the General Assembly on Tuesday.
“In over 30 years in my experience with the UN, I never heard a bolder or more courageous speech,” tweeted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Nor could there have been a more stark contrast with the speeches his predecessor, Barack Obama, gave: Trump made no apologies for America’s past and even boasted of US exceptionalism. “America has been among the greatest forces for good in the history of the world,” he said.
…
He noted the “extraordinary opportunity” the world faced, particularly given advances in science and medicine, and said it’s “entirely up to us whether we lift the world to new heights.”
That — and Trump’s honesty — was refreshing indeed. No wonder so many saw the speech as the best yet of his presidency.
