At my age I'm pretty sure I don't need maternity care. At her age I'm pretty sure my granddaughter doesn't need health insurance for her end-of-life needs. But what do I know? I'm just a dumb citizen. According to the architects of Obamacare — if you can call the Democrats who designed President Obama's signature failure "architects" — I can't be trusted to buy my own health insurance.
Sausage is being made in Washington. But you don't want to watch. Whether you're a Democrat or a Republican, liberal or conservative, watching Washington's sausage being made will make you lose your appetite for democracy.
Maybe I'm channeling Donald Trump. Or maybe he's been reading my columns — or my mind. All I know for sure is that when he gave his great speech to Congress Tuesday night he did exactly what I suggested he should do that morning in my column in The Hill — stop being Donald Trump.
My father was constantly under attack by liberal pundits and Democrats, Mr. President, but I dare you to try to find a single time when he responded to any of them in the media.
Major League Baseball has an annual training season in Florida. Maybe President Trump should have gone somewhere outside of Washington to hold tryouts for a month to see who on his team was ready to play in the big leagues.
Donald Trump is driving everyone in Washington nuts with his mad presidential style. ... Let's all get a grip.
The Trump Train is rolling on. It's going so fast and in so many directions at once that its critics can't catch up. All week long President Trump has filled the headlines with news.
President Trump's new get-tough attitude on immigration has already stopped one Mexican from coming to the United States. Trouble is, the Mexican who stayed home was President Enrique Pena Nieto.
By lunchtime Friday Donald Trump will be our president. The New York-LA-DC liberal media — America's axis of evil? — are still in shock and may never recover. Their reporters and commentators did every unfair and unbalanced thing they could to do to help Hillary Clinton and stop Donald Trump — ridicule, sneers, fake news, outright lies, whatever.
President Obama delivered his farewell speech the other night on national TV. It was one of his best. The man knows how to write and deliver a speech. No one can ever deny that he's good with words. Unfortunately, what President Obama actually accomplished as president is another story.
It's clear President Obama — despite the boos from Flyover Country — doesn't plan to get off the national stage any time soon.
In the last six weeks the liberal pundits and biased reporters of the Old Media have pulled a groin muscle trying to discredit President Trump in advance.
Why does California even bother to have a border? Why does the United States of America? In 2013 the governor of our one-party state, Jerry Brown, and the Democrats in Sacramento effectively turned California into a sanctuary state. They told Washington that if any of the illegal immigrants arrested here had not committed a serious crime they would not be turned over to federal immigration officials for deportation. Now the council of Santa Ana has voted to join more than 30 other California towns that have declared themselves sanctuary cities.
On Wednesday, the Senate Judiciary committee held a significant hearing on the proposed $84 billion merger between AT&T and Time Warner, which owns CNN. AT&T's CEO Randall Stephenson testified, and faced tough questions from senators who seemed to understand allowing this merger will have important implications for a free press and American democracy for many years to come.
The death of the dictator of Cuba took over our headlines for a few days and made some world leaders look pretty stupid. Canada's leader Justin Trudeau reacted as if Fidel Castro was a saint to be mourned, not a thug whose death should be celebrated. Our own cool president was careful to not say a negative word about the Left's evil superhero. Our next president may or may not make America great again with his liberal-conservative mix of ideas and goals, but he sure got St. Fidel right.
The liberal media has been in a frenzy all week. It thinks Donald Trump and his transition team are taking too long to announce his cabinet picks and other appointees.
It's all over. So why are people still arguing about something Donald Trump said three weeks ago? Why are protestors milling around the streets of our cities holding up misspelled signs and promising revolution? The argument ended early Wednesday morning when the votes were counted. Trump won.
Trump or Clinton? No one has a clue who will win on Election Day. The polls are narrowing, as they always do, but they're still all over the place or within the margin of error. Maybe Wisconsin will flip to red. Maybe millions of Colorado's potheads will vote for Trump. Maybe this time enough socially conservative, union-worshipping Reagan Democrats in western and central Pennsylvania will vote Republican and offset the landslide that Philly and its suburbs gives the Democrat candidate every four years. Maybe the FBI, Wikileaks or the Wall Street Journal will end all the drama and drop another big one on Hillary Clinton's head this weekend that will expose her crude criminality to even the lowest of America's low-information voters. Let us pray.
As I've said: He's embarrassing. He's a narcissist. He's running the worst presidential campaign I've seen in my lifetime. But Donald Trump is not a criminal. He's not a professional liar. He's not an untrustworthy politician. Hillary Clinton is all three — and much worse.
Trump had his best debate in Nevada. Instead of 90 minutes of him denying his alleged minor sexual aggressions, some actual issues were discussed — the Supreme Court, the economy, trade, terrorism, immigration, guns and abortion. And before he jumped the tracks, Trump scored a few solid hits on the crookedness of the Clinton Foundation and Hillary's serial lies to the FBI, Congress and the American people. Not that anyone in the liberal media really cared.
