Why We Needed Trump: Part 3: Trump's American Vision: Just Right

The essays by Frank Miele in this collection span from 2015 to 2018 during the campaign of Donald Trump and the first two years of his presidency, with special emphasis on border security, the Deep State and Fake News.The "Why We Needed Trump" trilogy began with "Bush's Global Failure: Half Right" and continued with "Obama's Fundamental Transformation: Far Left." The trilogy introduces the entire Heartland Diary USA series. Most of these essays originally appeared in the Daily Inter Lake in Kalispell, Montana, where Miele worked for 34 years, including 18 years as managing editor. Miele gained a wide following for his weekly conservative "Editor's 2 Cents" commentaries, which are now collected in the Heartland Diary series. The author, who is now a columnist for Real Clear Politics, describes his work as a community journalist in his Introduction, and explains why his column became such a touchstone for conservatives:"My column ultimately was informed by love of country, gratitude for family and friends, humility before God, and an acute awareness of the cussedness of politicians and other wild animals. I repeatedly called on the American people to live up to the mandate set upon them by the Founding Fathers - to educate themselves and govern the governors - and I publicly repudiated presidents, both Democratic and Republican, who betrayed their own sacred trust to the Constitution. All along, as I wrote of the greatness of America, I felt our country willingly slipping away into mediocrity - and looked for solutions that would come from the people, not the politicians."
