Those Poll Numbers On Trump’s Assassination Of Suleimani Not Looking Good. I don’t generally ‘do’ polls here, but this one suggests that Trump might have done lasting damage to his reelection.
Clinton Found Innocent–Again. Doesn’t make her any less guilty of political malpractice though, which was her true transgression. Her disastrous candidacy will never offer her exoneration.

What do you want to talk about?
