Trump's Operation SeaLion economy versus Biden creating 66% more jobs in next 4 years

A new analysis by Moody’s Analytics definitively demonstrates to those predisposed to conventional economic analysis that Trump is a loser, especially in terms of the economy. Biden’s economic plans aren’t even radical, simply democratic and less inequitable. Trump’s short-attention-span policies have always been wham-bam, wait for two weeks, there’ll be a new...

Biden's speech trounces Trump's in overnight TV ratings

Donald Trump “profoundly” accepted the Republican presidential nomination last night. Of course, he meant “proudly,” but hey — reading is not fundamental to him. I stopped watching after a few minutes, honestly. Did he ever vary his pitch? He seemed pretty low-energy. Good thing hardly anyone was watching. RawStory: President...

No Debates? After all, haven't we heard enough, and Trump will flee the stage anyway

Trump’s a coward, we know this from the biographies and his own words about cruelty and blood. Why subject the public to more windbaggery and decompensation. Ultimately it is about legitimizing Trump, or rather making an obvious display about an obvious choice. Then again we’ll see some Tara Reade stunt...

1st Murder Hornet Caught in Washington State but does not mean Trump will do better in swing states

Making an orange juice and rice wine trap for murder hornets doesn’t encourage thinking about the oncoming possibility that Washington State may also be a bellwether for Trump’s swing state strength.

Deranged Trump Syndrome: said he “never suggested it,” except he then did it for three years

An entirely circular public relations stunt aided by the NY Times.

Lisa Rein has a good piece in The Washington Post about Montana’s history of split-ticket voting could be the key factor in helping Governor Steve Bullock (D. MT) defeat U.S. Senator Steve Daines (R. MT): Montanans, stubbornly independent, like to split tickets. And Bullock, a lawyer who narrowly won reelection...

We are not yet at the acme of the Trumpian disinformation campaign or that 'October Surprise'

Stuff is happening and it isn’t simply that Trump is trying to “win” in the worst way. Trump tells us that Biden is weak and yet Biden is more powerful than God. Because Jerry Falwell Jr’s excuse is one we all want to use someday: ‘She Was Pregnant’ and I Couldn’t Get...

Nobody Voted for Bush Either?

When George W. Bush stood in the rubble of the World Trade Center in 2001, a plurality of Republicans and to be fair a large number of Democrats cheered him. George W. Bush rallied America in the midst of its 9/11 sorrow, in response to firefighter Rocco Chierichella yelling, “We...
