Who, Precisely, Believes Fake News?

Must-read opinion by Anne Applebaum in today’s WAPO. Rather than answering her question, the Trump-Putin bots criticize her for asking the question: “Who, in fact, is incapable of comparing fact A to fact B?” Tech-savvy youngsters see right through it. Why can’t 30% of Trump voters? The answer: As “authoritarian personality” types, they seek to disparage Read More…

WTF HRC?

WE DEMOCRATS can only take so much of this! Stop bashing FBI Director Comey and look at your own campaign. Who allowed that dimwit Weiner to get with 100 feet of Huma’s laptop? Or why didn’t Huma just avoid sharing it with him? Poor judgment, beyond the server itself. And regarding the FeeBees, what else Read More…

Russia, Rome or Babylon?

 SOME contend that the coming election is the most critical since that of 1860, where the Lincoln presidency led to our Civil War. If this be the case, what is the source of this consternation and, more importantly, what is the likely outcome? The first stirrings of the Civil War were seen by 1830, with the emergence of Read More…

Debate Predictions

HRC Seals the Deal Okay, summer’s over. Time to wrap this baby up. Tonight, The Donald will try to end-run the issues by popping a surprise – probably by pulling a letter out of his pocket alleging that his IRS audit issue has been fixed. HRC should be ready for that, probably with something new about Read More…

What’s Missing in this Picture?

According to Bret Baer (sp) and his Washington Times lackey on today’s show, in addition to Read More…

The Half-Right GOP

It is amusing to note that the Weekly Standard has finally caught up to reality, as argued today in Jonathan Last’s article on dumping Trump immediately. Sorry, but it’s too late to save the Senate, as it was noted here on July 29th. What poor Jonathan misses is the fact that the GOP is gone, Read More…

R.I.P. G.O.P.

Today marks the official launching of this measly blog. Today is, furthermore, the official end of the Republican Party, as we have known it. That Representative Paul Ryan continues to ride the Donald Trump coat-tails, regardless of his rationalizations to the contrary, indicates that the new economic plan, presented Monday by the latter and touted by Read More…

Fox and Fools On the Run!

Anyone catch Sean Hannity and Bill O’Reilly, and their guests, yesterday and today? Orgiastic panic! They must have seen my projected results for the November election. It looks like Hillary with 364 electoral votes and The Donald with 174. What is not clear at this point is the projected vote disparity, but it appears to be in Read More…
