Victor Davis Hanson: Trump’s Bold Measures & The Cost of Correcting the Left


Listen Later

On this episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” a Daily Signal original, Hanson discusses the initial days of the Trump administration and the backlash from the Left. He compares the costs associated with corrective measures to those of the policies originally enacted by the Left. 

“Over these first few days of the Trump administration, we've seen these bold measures. And it's starting to incur a big backlash, or anger, or counter response from the Left.”

 “They're saying, well, Donald Trump wants to build the wall. Does he have any idea what it's going to cost? Well, a couple of things: What was the cost of letting 12 million people in here? Twelve million people. We have no idea. What was the cost of allowing 80 to 100,000 people to die every year from cartel-imported fentanyl? So, there was a cost. And that cost was much greater than building the wall.”
