Hugh Hewitt Gives It The Old College Try Regarding Trump And The Courts

I long ago noted that about the only reason I could think of to check the box for Trump as a vote against Hillary is the courts, from the Supreme Court and down. That said, sometimes a candidate is just so utterly awful that one can’t in good conscience vote for that person. However, here’s […]

Great News: Trump’s Really Not Running Against Clinton

Can you guess who Trump says he’s running against in this election cycle? Since the headline already says it is not Hillary, you probably guessed “Republicans,”, which sure seems the case since he and his followers spend a lot of time going after Republican voters and elected officials.

What, Exactly, Is Trump Doing With The Money He’s Raised?

It’s a valid question. Trump is said to be running a “different type of campaign.” It sure seems so https://twitter.com/_Drew_McCoy_/status/763776555835207680 And barely any campaign offices.

Liberals Apoplectic Over Donald Trump 2nd Amendment Comment

So, Donald Trump, surprisingly, said something very inarticulately. I know, you’re shocked that someone off teleprompter could say something poorly.

Where Do Hillary And Trump Stand On Banning Fracking?

Well, according to the Daily Caller, they’ve swapped positions Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton just switched positions with Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, this week by supporting a state Supreme Court ruling which prohibits local governments from banning the process.

Trump Releases Video Showing Hillary As A Robot

Something amusing for a Sunday morning (The Hill) A new Donald Trump video is mocking Hillary Clinton as a malfunctioning robot, a reference to her recent remark that she “short-circuited” when speaking about the FBI’s probe into her email server. “Is robot Hillary melting down,” the video, posted by Trump on his Facebook page Saturday, […]
