The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

STOP DOING THIS!

Look, I don’t want to name any names or call anybody out, but I am sick and tired of the defeatist negativity that crops up in the comments every time I blog about the election. Whenever I point to hopeful signs about November (as I did on Tuesday), the comments fill up with a chorus […]

The Only Trick in Their Bag

Look, I get it: Biden put Democrats in a bad spot. He could have — and should have — announced in early 2023 that he would not seek a second term, thereby making it possible for Democrats to have a primary to choose their 2024 presidential candidate. Unfortunately for Democrats, while senile dementia diminishes many […]

RFK Jr. Endorses Trump

This happened while I was on the road — my wife and I are carrying our youngest daughter back to college this weekend — and the two main points to be emphasized are these: First, this changes the conversation. The Sunday shows, which would have been all about Kamala’s “joyful” convention, will now be focused […]

Trump Derangement Syndrome and the Media’s ‘Misinformation’ Obsession

Have you forgotten? In case you don’t remember how traumatized liberals were by Donald Trump winning the 2016 election, you can click here for an ABC News video of Hillary Clinton’s supporters, gathered for a planned victory celebration at the Javits Center in New York, crying on the evening of November 8, 2016. It was […]

Republicans Dodged a Bullet Today — and Van Jones Tells the Truth About Why!

Folks, if Donald Trump wins in November, today will be remembered as the day that the 2024 election shifted decisively in his favor. While vice-presidential picks rarely affect the outcome of an election (Thomas Eagleton being perhaps the most egregious exception to that rule), Kamala Harris could have made the Electoral College (EC) arithmetic very […]

Mystified Why Trump Keeps Criticizing Georgia Republicans? Here’s the Answer

Was the 2020 election stolen? That’s a yes or no question. Were I called to testify under oath, I’d have to answer yes. I’ve talked to friends in Georgia who tell stories of “ballot harvesting” there, and this is completely apart from the arguably unconstitutional rule change that allowed universal vote-by-mail in my native state. […]

Issues? We Don’t Need No Stinkin’ Issues!

Although I usually watch CNN (so you don’t have to), for the past week my office TV has been tuned to MSNBC, so that I can see what “news” is being pumped into the veins of the Democratic Party grassroots. It’s an endless hype-fest for Kamala Harris, interrupted by occasional “news” about some kind of […]

Living in Interesting Times

Early this morning, I found myself researching the British industrialist and politician Joseph Chamberlain, whose son Neville became the Prime Minister ruined by appeasement. It was apparently from Joseph Chamberlain that his other son, Austen (Nevill[e’s half-brother) derived the idea of “may you live in interesting times” as being, as is often said, an ancient […]
