President Trump's new UN speech has received criticism, as does every move he makes.
Despite Trump's tremendous flaws, he is still our President and the leader of the free world. When the move he makes is a good one, it should be credited.
Leaders that Trump targeted in his speech are obviously insulted, and his speech has been met with criticism it does not deserve.
The main talking point has been on his targeting of Iran and North Korea, two evil regimes, along with his attacks on Venezuela's socialism.
Iran is the top enabler of terror in the world, so taking any criticism from their foreign minister seems a little ridiculous.
Among the insulted is the usual Kim Jong Un, the 33-year-old dictator that has continued the destruction and inhumane treatment of his people, which vindicates what Trump said about him.
My favorite quote about North Korea was not the rocket man one that has some people up in arms.
The quote, taken from an article on Business Insider, "No one has shown more contempt for other nations and for the well-being of their own people than the depraved regime in North Korea," Trump said, "It is responsible for the starvation deaths of millions of North Koreans and for the imprisonment, torture, killing, and oppression of countless more."
Trump calling out an evil regime in front of the world is something we should admire; that our leader makes it clear what evil he does not allow.
North Korea is a regime that murders its people in unimaginable ways at the slightest hint of dissent. The country has consistently held Americans hostage for no reason and most recently took the life of college student Otto Warmbier.
Trump warning North Korea that their obliteration would be imminent if there was an attack on America is not irrational or irresponsible. It is a truth that Kim Jong Un should constantly be aware of at all times.
No, Trump's "rocket man" comment was not necessary nor very diplomatic, but Trump is talking down to a dictator that does not even deserve respect. His straight-forward "do not attack Americans" is a fantastic tone.
Trump also mentioned Iran, calling them out for being a "rogue regime", and for a nation that funds terror. In what way is that inaccurate?
Realistically, angering leaders of such nations is not ideal, but there is nothing Trump can do if the truth angers them.
Alongside his criticisms of North Korea and Iran came the best part of the speech when he obliterated the socialism that is plaguing the once rich nation of Venezuela.
Trump attacked Socialism, and instead of being met with cheers, the leaders of the world looked around and gave very little applause. Trump denouncing an evil ideology in front of world leaders that clearly are indifferent is a wonderful thing.
Trump is the leader of the free world, and you cannot be under socialism. His job is to represent the free people of his nation, not to appeal to leaders with agendas that would ruin their country as the policy has before.
Not only did leaders not seem enthusiastic about his response, but naturally President Maduro joined the "Trump is Hitler" bandwagon.
Not only is comparing Trump to Adolf Hitler absurd, Maduro does not have the moral authority to be calling Trump oppressive.
In addition to the starvation and economic disaster facing the nation, human rights, press rights, and judicial processes have been attacked.
Just a few months ago Venezuela took opposing political representatives from their homes to jail. Venezuela's socialist regime has been responsible for the suffering of millions and the spiral of a country into chaos.
The lack of praise is not a fault of Trump. Trump is being courageous denouncing an evil ideology that other world leaders have different opinions on.
When Trump was soft on the terror in Charlottesville, many spoke out. Giving him credit here is due; calling out evil should never be viewed as something that is wrong.
Trump's speech was not all fantastic, and his childish tweeting continues burdened by his weak responses to domestic injustices, but calling out evil leaders in front of the world is not something that should be criticized, Instead, is should be a quality we look for in a President.
