The first 100+ Days of the Trump Presidency

Whether you love him or loathe him, we are at a pivotal moment in […]
The Truth about Fake News
Today is President’s Day, a national holiday honoring the birthday of our first president, George Washington (actually born on February 22, 1732, a mere 285 years ago on Wednesday).

On a bombshell Friday, a lewd videotape featuring Donald Trump at his misogynist worst hit the airwaves. On the same day, new WikiLeaks released emails further illustrated Hillary […]
Mr. Trump Goes to Mexico
In one of the greatest ironies in the wackiest, reality-show presidential campaigns either, on Wednesday afternoon Republican candidate Donald Trump was in Mexico City, standing side by side with the president of a country that he claims will pay for a two thousand mile wall along the U.S. southern border. It was a picture worth […]

Trump’s Poll Numbers Plummet
A plunge. A nosedive. A drop. A fall. A rapid descent. Whatever term you want to use, Donald Trump’s poll numbers have been in a free fall ever since the end of the Democratic National Convention and Hillary Clinton is now the clear front-runner in the race for the Oval Office. It’s typical for a […]
