Patriotism in the White House, in any other era, would not have been anything out of the ordinary. In the America of managerialism and 'global governance', not to mention identity politics, Trump’s patriotism plunges the chattering classes into fits of frothing indignation

The totalitarianism of PC rectitude reveals itself any time a member of an ascribed tribe defers to conscience and thereby labels themselves an 'identity traitor'. The antidote is a colour-blind alliance predicated on enlightened patriotism and Western civilisation

The Left, as usual, wishes to cast the White House executive order banning residents of seven ardently Islamic countries as being motivated by race and religious prejudice. It's an entirely predictable stance and, as always, it seeks to obscure the obvious beneath social-justice boilerplate

Two demagogues have inserted their countries into a monstrous civilisational war between millennialist Shia fundamentalists and apocalyptic Sunni fundamentalists. There were always going to be consequences for such folly – the assassination of Ambassador Karlov is but one
