Shot: “What Does Barack Obama Really Think of Donald Trump? ‘He’s Nothing But a Bullsh–ter.’”

—People magazine, today.

Chaser:

Every now and then in Renegade [a history of Obama’s 2008 campaign by leftwing journalist Richard Wolffe — Ed], a moment arrives when it seems Obama might reveal something, some tiny thing, about himself. “You know, I actually believe my own bullshit,” Obama told Wolffe with a smile. But what for a nanosecond seemed like candor—would the candidate actually examine his own B.S.?—was just another talking point, as he explained to Wolffe that he truly wanted to bring change to America for better health care, for better schools, and especially for “the kid on the streets.”

There’s much about this quote that’s revealing. First, there’s the serious message Obama is trying to deliver within the joke about bs: “I truly believe that I can make people’s lives better.” But if he really does believe that, then why insert a subtle disclaimer (it’s all “bullshit”) inherent in the casually deprecating tone that seems to negate its seriousness and casts an ironic and juvenile eye on the entire enterprise?

Because Diversity!  THEY TOLD ME IF TRUMP WERE ELECTED, WE’D SEE DISCRIMINATORY “LITERACY TESTS” REAPPEAR. AND THEY WERE RIGHT! A Clemson administrator has proposed requiring student government candidates to pass an “intercultural competency” test before being permitted to run for or hold office. Several student senators objected to the “awful” plan, saying it amounts to an ideological purity test that contradicts the very purpose of having a democratically-elected student government.

Telling kids they can go to college, even if they earn mediocre or poor grades, undercuts the work ethic they’ll need to succeed, writes Nick Ehrmann in The Atlantic. He describes bright underachievers who slide through high school with C’s and D’s, go to college and fail.

EVERGREEN HEADLINE: The American Left Is Talking Itself Into Violence — The recent violence that’s marked our college campuses is seeping into the rest of society, and the vast majority of it comes from the intolerant Left.

On March 18th, 1968, Bobby Kennedy told the students at Kansas State University:

As Kennedy began [to speak at Kansas State U.], his voice cracked, and those near the stage noticed his hands trembling and his right leg shaking.After praising [Al] Landon’s distinguished career, he said, “I am also glad to come to the home state of another great Kansan, who wrote, ‘If our colleges and universities do not breed men who riot, who rebel, who attack life with all their youthful vision and vigor then there is something wrong with our colleges. The more riots that come on college campuses, the better the world for tomorrow.’ ” …

Or as a rather prominent far left community organizer said in various speeches to his constituents decades later, punish your enemies, If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun, get in their faces, and punch back twice as hard, I don’t want to quell anger. I think people are right to be angry, etc.

In a single sentence, Caine summed up the entire case for Brexit — and several centuries of the sheer groundedness and common sense of the ordinary Briton.
