“Watching the polls is a head-shaking confirmation that, I hope, reverses itself before November. There is far too much at stake.”

By his own oblivious measure, this reality stands out: no one now knows whether Trump ever means what he says. Or ever did. No wonder 2/3’s of the country judge Trump untrustworthy and unfit, if not the greatest phony dreaming of the WH? The seeming jokester has managed to turn himself into prime object of ridicule. This is politics as phantasmagoria, along with gruesome nightmares American is kaput. If language no longer has meaning, all bets are off, doomed by Trump’s indecipherable intentions. Nothing exactly new here if you track predatory sales pitches, intensely self-serving narcissism, even what most people end up calling crazy, deranged, or unstable.

Donald Trump told supporters ‘the Second Amendment people’ could take action against Clinton if she were to win the 2016 Presidential Race.

“Trump will never lack for defensive justifications, whatever he does and whatever happens to him.”

Donald Trump has officially endorsed Ryan, McCain and Ayotte.

While Hillary Clinton is still not the most-beloved politician, some readers seem to have warmed to her during a convention with a markedly more optimistic tone than last week’s RNC.

Chris Hedges and Robert Reich discuss their thoughts on Bernie Sanders’ support of a Hillary presidency after his speech at the DNC.

Michelle Obama barely mentioned Donald Trump in her speech last night, but kept a focus on unifying the Democratic Party.

Is Cruz the moral hero, defender of his family honor, plus brilliant electoral tactician primed to pick up the GOP fragments after Trump is squashed? Or a foolhardy buffoon hoisted on his own smug righteousness? For months, Cruz’ unfavorables seriously lagged Trump’s and Hillary’s, curious after his self-soiling, miserable failures against a master of mud-slinging and calumny. Not anymore.
