  • Trump on Clinton’s Bigotry: Pot Calling Kettle . . .

    One thing is clear. Donald Trump does not have a plan to win the office of President of the United States. His intention is to win every news cycle by saying the most outrageous things that occur to him at that given moment. A short time ago, it was encouraging gun owners to make sure…

  • Another Dangerous Trump Idea

    Donald Trump, the GOP nominee for President of the United States, proves daily that he is not in the race to win it. But he aims to cause as much havoc as he can on the way to not winning the presidency. How else do you explain his efforts to recruit poll watchers in order…

  • Donald Trump is Such a Kidder!

    These people. They just can’t take a joke.  First, he sarcastically ran for the office of the President of the United States even though he is not qualified to run the country and he has no ideas how to and is not even interested in running the country.

    It is no longer a rumor that Bill Clinton talked to Donald Trump in the weeks before he ran for president. For the people who believe that, Trump gives them ammunition daily. It’s like Trump calls the HRC campaign headquarters each day to get his talking points about how to further kneecap himself. Or, maybe…

    Despite his “good relationship with the blacks” and being the “least racist person” he knows, Donald Trump history of discriminating against people of color goes back to the beginning of his business career. The New York Times, which over the weekend released a story about how DT devastated lives in numerous bankruptcies in Atlantic City,…

  • A Sunday Walk

    A friendly but earnest conversation between a man with a dog and a couple on a walk. This was a Sunday morning on Memorial Day weekend in a Northwest New Jersey suburb. I caught only a snippet of the conversation: “. . . back in the days when Christie was not a scumbag politician,” the…

  • How a First Putin-Trump Summit Might Go

    As the character of our next POTUS—Donald Trump—blooms right before our very eyes, it occurs to me it is not too soon to start imagining how future events might play out. Take that first Trump summit with Russia President Vladimir Putin. A lot is going to be riding on that one. Trump and Putin had…
