Bobby Jindal: Electing Trump is the second-worst thing we could do
“I was one of the earliest and loudest critics of Mr. Trump. I mocked his appearance, demeanor, ideology and ego in the strongest language I have ever used to publicly criticize anyone in politics. – Former Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal
So wrote Jindal is his op-ed piece, “I’m voting Trump, Warts and All,” in today’s Wall Street Journal. “I worked harder than most, with little apparent effect, to stop his ascendancy,” he adds. Continue reading
Columnist Dennis Prager paints dark picture of America with Clinton or Trump
As a political news wonk, who has become extremely discouraged with much of the American public and their fascination with Donald Trump, and Hillary Clinton for that matter, I was drawn to “A Dark Time in America,” a recent column by Dennis Prager. Continue reading
What did I tell you? They’re going bonkers over Ryan
If you read my May 6, post, “Much ado about nothing,” you will recall my expectation that the media would hype the House Speaker Paul Ryan and Donald Trump confrontation for all its worth, citing a “deepening fracture” in the GOP. It is underway. Continue reading

Trump the ‘presumptive’ nominee?
Presumptive … presumed in the absence of further information – Oxford dictionary
“I consider myself the presumptive nominee,” Donald Trump declared following his sweep of the five east coast primaries, “As far as I’m concerned, it’s over.”
Personally, I am not a Trump fan. I just cannot get past his boorish bragging, his callous insults and his inability to articulate policy specifics. I’m not alone. A friend has been sending me articles on Trump, saying “I’m still learning to love him because I may have to vote for him.” Continue reading
USA Today gives new meaning to ‘fact check’
