Trump Presidency News

Convinced that President Donald Trump lost his bid for reelection, the media suddenly became less hysterical. Just like that, the media, at least to some degree, rediscovered concepts such as fairness and perspective, AWOL the last four years. Two weeks after the election, New York Times Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist Nicholas Kristof haltingly, grudgingly, and reluctantly,…

Even if President Donald Trump isn’t in the White House for the next four years, he’s leaving the next president with a whole lot to remember him by. As the days tick on, more liberals are starting to realize that even if Joe Biden wins, upending all that Trump did will be a much harder…

Donald Trump is nearing a crossroads. Those who allege that he has endangered the tradition of smooth presidential transitions by not conceding immediately after the media declared him the loser suffer amnesia. When Trump was elected in 2016, the Washington establishment lost its collective mind. The top echelon of the FBI and CIA were still…

Ken Blackwell, advisory board member of the Trump/Pence 2020 campaign, and J. Christian Adams, president and general counsel of the Public Interest Legal Foundation, join “The Bill Walton Show” to discuss the latest on the Trump campaign’s battle over the counting of legal votes.

After four years of Democrats attacking President Donald Trump as “illegitimate,” “fascist,” “Nazi,” “tyrant,” “dictator,” “racist,” “anti-Semitic,” “Russian stooge,” “traitor,” “grifter,” “xenophobe,” “sexist,” “homophobe,” “ignorant,” “fat,” and “lazy,” former Vice President Joe Biden now says, “Let’s heal.” In his “victory speech,” Biden said, “And to those who voted for President Trump, I understand your disappointment…

I once wrote that whenever Donald Trump exits office, he will likely leave as a “tragic hero.” Over two millennia ago, the Athenian tragedian Sophocles first described the archetype in his portraits of an angry and old but still fearsome Ajax, and heroic but stubborn and self-fixated Antigone. In the iconic John Ford Western “The…

PHILADELPHIA—In the City of Brotherly Love, which skews heavily Democrat, there was a lot of rejoicing Saturday—and spewing of hatred of Donald Trump. Crowds of thrilled Joe Biden supporters—buoyed by media outlets calling the presidential contest for the former vice president—gathered in the blocks around City Hall and the Convention Center, at times breaking into…

We all knew Election Day 2020 wouldn’t be normal. And yet it still seems remarkable that we don’t know yet who will be the president of the United States on Jan. 20. And we may not know for some time if we’ll have four more years of President Donald Trump or a newly inaugurated President Joe Biden. Even if…

President Donald Trump did historically well in terms of the Hispanic vote.  In both Texas and Florida, the Republican nominee did well among Hispanics.  Per NBC News, “55 percent of Florida’s Cuban-American vote went to Trump, according to NBC News exit polls, while 30 percent of Puerto Ricans and 48 percent of ‘other Latinos’ backed Trump.” Nationally, he…
