TRUMP SAYS He 'Won the Debate Big' – According to Imaginary Polls
In these increasingly divisive days of the dwindling Era of Trump, there are rarely matters that achieve anything approaching a consensus. However, the first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Joe Biden has managed to produce a fair amount of agreement that Trump's behavior was disruptive, petulant, asinine, and harmful to both his candidacy and…
DEBASED DEBATE: Trump's Petulant Interruptions Were Filled with More Lies: A Fact-Check-a-Palooza
What happened on Tuesday night was not a debate. It was an unprecedented and disgraceful debasement of the proud tradition of American political discourse.

CRYBABY TRUMP Whines that Fox News Polls are Fake News
There is nothing more predictable than Donald Trump wailing like a colicky infant whenever he is criticized. His massive, yet fragile, ego simply can't take the slightest bit of pushback, constructive or otherwise.

Trump Approval DROPS After 2 Days of the Republican Nationalist Convention
What Donald Trump promised would be an optimistic and hopeful celebration of Republican leadership has predictably turned into a dystopian nightmare exalting an aspiring totalitarian dictator. The dark and hostile themes articulated by one speaker after another were unflinchingly foreboding and resolutely reverential of Trump and only Trump. This steadfast devotion to the Cult of…

Voters Expecting Biden to Beat Trump
There’s been a peculiar disconnect in the polls in the past few months: Most people disapprove of Trump, and most of those strongly disapprove — meaning that they won’t change their minds — and most voters say they will vote for Biden. But more people have also been saying they still expect Trump to win….
Trump is at 50% – Strongly DISAPPROVE
It’s a maxim in politics that the most difficult voters to persuade are the ones who “strongly approve” or “strongly disapprove” of a politician.
