President Biden had suffered through an agonizing and, some would say, fatal debate performance. ...Read more
Trump Wants to Win. And That Should Scare Biden
In many ways, the selection of Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance as former President Donald Trump’s running mate is odd and seemingly impolitic.
After all, Vance is another white guy from a state Trump won twice and is sure to win again — hardly a value-add. He’s brash and often unlikeable. Despite his humble beginnings, he’s often described as a ...Read more
Dems, Republicans and the Death of Common Sense: We Are Stuck with Biden and Trump
Common sense. We all know what it means, but common as it is, definitions and ideas of it have changed over centuries.

Biden’s Poor Debate Was So Infuriating
This last week of June 2024 will go down in history as one of the most consequential in American politics.
Thursday, June 27, in particular will go down as one of the most consequential debates in American elections — perhaps even more so than Nixon/Kennedy, or Lincoln/Douglas.

De Niro Iisn’t the Voice Voters Should Hear From
According to the most recent polls, former President Donald Trump is leading President Biden, despite facing several criminal indictments and regularly reminding many of his detractors why they’d voted him out — chaos follows him everywhere.
Does Trump Really Have Any Policy on Abortion?
The day was Aug. 18, 1988. New Orleans. President Ronald Reagan’s vice president, George H.W. Bush took the stage at the Republican National Convention to accept the nomination for president.
He’d been lagging in the polls behind Massachusetts Gov. Mike Dukakis, and Jack Kemp suggested an idea that could save his campaign: a pledge. ...Read more
Biden Attacking Oolls and Press Isn’t How to Win
Denial is a river in Egypt, as the saying goes. Well, it’s also making itself quite at home at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
President Biden is trailing former President Donald Trump in five swing states, all of which Biden won in 2020, according to a new ...Read more
S.E. Cupp: Trump’s biggest albatross is Nikki, not Stormy
Donald Trump has a woman problem.
