Joe Biden Is Not Barack Obama (and Other Truths the Media Elite Can’t See)

In 2016, Donald Trump got 62.9 million votes, or about 2 million more votes than Mitt Romney got in 2012. Who were those voters? Hillary Clinton sneered at them as “deplorables,” and media elites have spent the past four years trying to pretend those voters don’t matter. You see evidence of that kind of make-believe […]

Jake Tapper: Still Not Over Macho Grande

Has it really been 40 years since Airplane? Perhaps younger readers don’t get the “over Macho Grande” reference, but it came to mind as I watched Jake Tapper have a hissy fit after Thursday’s debate, declaring that President Trump “is running the single most negative, sleazy campaign in American history for a major party candidate.” […]

Trump Won the Debate, But …

BERRIEN COUNTY, Michigan “C’mon” — Joe Biden used that seven different times during Thursday night’s debate, sometimes as “c’mon man,” other times as “c’mon, folks.” It’s a tic, a mannerism, a habit, and you could see Biden get rattled after he made the mistake of bringing up Rudy Giuliani, which opened the door for President […]

Ohio Is Trump Country

CRAWFORD COUNTY, Ohio This morning I drove down to Mt. Gilead, county seat of Morrow County, and the route along Highway 61 was lined with Trump signs. The ratio of Trump to Biden signs was at least 10-to-1, if not higher. The county Republican Party headquarters in Mt. Gilead wasn’t yet open, but I got […]

October in Ohio

CRAWFORD COUNTY, Ohio Just a few scenes of the maple trees around my mother-in-law’s house here in rural Ohio, where polls show President Trump with a narrow lead over Joe Biden but, in fact, everybody knows Trump will carry the state by a decisive margin (he won Ohio by 8 points in 2016).  

Ohio’s ‘Republican’ Governor

CRAWFORD COUNTY, Ohio Republicans are the party of business, the party of free enterprise and deregulation. So why in the world is the Republican governor of Ohio dictating 10 p.m. “last call” at bars? An Ohio state representative who led the charge to reverse Gov. Mike DeWine’s order to move last call at bars and […]
