A fellow golfer approached me on the course wanting to know how I viewed the upcoming presidential election. I told him I was concerned, alluding to the low information voters who fall for the negative sound bites from the Harris-Walz campaign.
Low information voters, you may recall, are those persuaded by tales conjured from focus groups that become campaign talking points.… read more

The Kelly Lie
In a clear sign of her desperation, Vice President Harris stepped out of her Washington residence Wednesday to foolishly try to convince you that the leftist Atlantic magazine’s statements about Trump made by former Gen. John Kelly and other charges are to be believed.
Thanks to the investigative reporting of The Federalist, a number of individuals came forward to deny them, including two people who worked for former Vice President Pence, who is currently persona non grata. … read more

Having read “I Can’t Back Trump, Who Only Has I’s for America,” Joseph Epstein’s op-ed in Monday’s Wall Street Journal, I found that he qualifies for my no-good-reason category.
Most of the other individuals I have placed in that category either simply hate his guts or detest his behavior. … read more

As Vice President Harris panders to blacks, especially men lately, for political purposes, I’m reminded of President Biden, blatantly pandering at all black Morehouse College
“Instead of a trail of broken promises, we’re investing more money than ever in Black families and Black communities. We’re removing every lead pipe in America so every child can drink clean water without fear of brain damage.… read more

With Election Day just a couple of weeks away, how can anyone believe that a voter has yet to make up his or her mind about either Trump-Vance or Harris-Walz?
In this era of 24/7 news and various social media outlets, I’m beginning to have misgivings about the knowledge of voters, even though candidates like to say, “American voters are smart.” … read more

Listening to Vice President Harris’s campaign speech at Washington’s Crossing, Pennsylvania Wednesday, I was struck by her sharpened attacks on former President Trump.
“It is clear Donald Trump is increasingly unstable and unhinged … unfit to serve … fascist to the core … dangerous to this country” … were among her attack lines, some hers and some she attributed to former Trump advisors.… read more

Ironically, as I leafed through the weekend edition of the Wall Street Journal, I saw a feature, “Where Do Never Trumpers Go From Here,” a subject on my blog to do list.
As I read the subhead on the Journal piece, It’s decision time for the five tribes of the anti-Trump right, I wondered which tribe my friend, Tom, would belong.… read more

There she is, Kamala Harris, “The Candidate of Our Times,” according to the November edition of Vogue magazine.
How inopportune for the candidate, who claims a middle-class upbringing, and is now struggling to win over middle-class voters, to allow herself to be featured on the cover of a magazine published for “women 20 to 40, who are successful and beautiful and want to be aware of all novelties in fashion and beauty.”… read more
Commentary
Facing criticism over the lack of unscripted interviews since entering the race, Vice President Harris went on a media blitz that did little to convince voters that she was presidential material.
Of the four shows on which she appeared, only 60 Minutes gave her an opportunity to show her credentials on what is considered a “news” show, unlike The View, Stephen Colbert, Howard Stern and Call Her Daddy, all unserious talk shows, and she squandered it.… read more

The Communicator
When former President Trump took the stage in Butler, Pennsylvania Saturday, where a would-be assassin’s bullet grazed his right ear 12 weeks ago, he turned slightly to the right for seconds before saying, “As I was saying.” The crowd, in excess of 100,000, roared.
Who, other than Trump, could begin drawing a crowd at 6 a.m.,… read more
