In praise of Trump and words on cancer treatment

Over the last few days President Donald Trump has made a number of dangerous and provocative statements. In these days he has also used foul language.

In the September issue of the free-sheet Alive Tom English writes:

"Speaking of the elite groups, just about every day now we get to hear a negative story about Donald Trump from our media masters. These leftists, Democrat-loving oppressors just love to poke fun at the US president.

And then later:

"It's no wonder then that the US president has a pop at the liberal media."

On page nine of the same issue there is a headline that runs: Cancer therapy may do more harm.

It's vocabulary is nasty, inaccurate and hateful. This can have nothing to do with the Gospel of love and mercy?

Every issue makes snide remarks about the European Union.

An insult to the memories of such people as Adenauer, deGasperi, Monet, Schuman, Spinelli.

To praise Trump and cast scorn on the work of Konrad Adenauer gives some sense of the tone of  the free-sheet.

Every page of the September issue has a nasty story to tell.

Page eight runs a headline: 'Irish Times' 'news' warps readers' thinking.

Surely it is far more healthy to be 'warped' by the thinking of The Irish Times than the nastiness of the free-sheet Alive?

And this free-sheet is subsidised by the Irish taxpayer.
