2016 Election – Page 2 – The Politicus

1000 pages of Senate Intel Volume 5 may provide the Trump indictment if he tries to stay

It is indeed a tough way to make a living, but our lived experience tells us that we can survive Trumpism. Even if he steals the election he will get removed. Like the Las Vegas show The Act, and the Steele report of golden showers in the Russian hotel, it...

Is a 'Democratic muscular liberalism' that sidelines progressivism, in the US foreign policy future

So many things to clean up starting January. A Josh Rogin piece at WaPo suggests that progressives will be sidelined in a Biden-Harris foreign policy. ‘Democratic muscular liberalism’ is more rebranding for the same centrism that often supported making wars last longer and often with less satisfying outcomes, despite multilateralism and...
