“They’re eating the dogs. They’re eating the cats. They’re eating the pets of the people who live there.” It may not have been Dan Quayle looking like a deer in the headlights when Lloyd Bentsen said he was no Jack Kennedy. It may not have been Gerald Ford saying there was no Soviet domination of …
“We are going to be a tariff nation.” Can Donald Trump really be that stupid? I can say I certainly hope not, but if he isn’t, if he really understands what tariffs do, he is hiding from his supporters that his tariffs would be a massive tax increase — on them. Tariffs are not now …
I had a very strange feeling earlier today. I watched the 52nd and final episode of “Downton Abbey,” a show I had never watched before a few weeks ago. It was a nice innocuous effort to tie up all the loose ends in the PBS series, and when it was over, I realized something. I …

Just a short post, a little food for thought. A couple of nights ago, I was awakened by my wife calling to me from her bedroom at the other end of the house from where I sleep. She falls occasionally and needs help getting up, so I got out of bed and called out to …
Is there anything Donald Trump won’t do? Worse, is there anything his Trumpanzees won’t forgive him for? Look at the picture above, taken during Trump’s completely illegal photo op at Arlington National Cemetery this week. Forget the obscenity of Trump, his campaign workers and the families and friends of those who died standing on their …
Donald Trump is either the ultimate con man or he is completely crazy. In an appearance on Dr. Phil’s show on CNN Wednesday, Trump asserted that if it weren’t for voter fraud by Democrats, he would have beaten Joe Biden in California in the 2020 election. It’s one thing to pressure Georgia officials to “find” …
When folks on one side of the spectrum call folks on the other side weird, you can generally find and least a little bizarritude ib their closet. Take today’s Republican Party, for example.
