With failures like these, who needs success?

Victor Davis Hanson: "Trump’s ‘Failures’".
For better or worse, we are now fundamentally recalibrating the United States—not just redressing the prior Obama transformation, but the policies of past Republican administrations as well. And no one quite knows where it will end, given that almost all our experts who swore in January 2017 that the economy would tank were wrong. They were wrong again with their prediction of a late summer 2019 recession. And they may well be wrong again that confronting China would ensure a global trade cataclysm. Never underestimate how greatly the hatred of Donald Trump can warp the mind of a Ph.D.

I worked in a university for 13 years. Don't ask me what I think of PhDs and their "intelligence".

Educated beyond their intelligence? With the added bonus of no common sense whatsoever?
