We’re still ‘betting on Trump,’ the right says

1. Feehery: Betting on Trump

From The Hill: "The president seems to be fixated on keeping his promises to those voters who bet on him when nobody else thought he had a chance, no matter how good or bad those promises might be."

2. Trump may be right about immigration — but pictures are worth a thousand words

From New York Post: "The current uproar will make any improvements in border security more difficult to achieve."

3. The UN's human wrongs: In defense of Trump's Human Rights Council pullout

From The New York Daily News: "But the UNHRC has been used as a tool of dictatorial regimes, and a weapon against Israel, for years."
