  • Trump reeling from major loss

    Tuesday, August 15, 2017 10:48 AM
    THE DEMISE OF the Republican effort to repeal the Affordable Care Act is hardly the end of the story. Donald Trump will not let this loss stand.
    Since its inception in 2010, Republicans have made the Affordable Care Act (ACA) a symbol of Barack Obama-Hillary Clinton overreach, part of a supposed plot by liberal elites to expand government, burden the white working class, and transfer benefits to poor blacks and Latinos.
    Ever the political opportunist, Trump

  • Trump has let down supporters

    Tuesday, August 1, 2017 10:49 AM
    YOU HAD YOUR reasons for voting for Donald Trump. For some of you, he seemed the lesser of two evils, because you hated Hillary Clinton. Some of you just wanted to shake up the Washington establishment and end politics as usual.
    But many of you

  • Medicare for all needed in U.S.

    Tuesday, July 18, 2017 11:08 AM
    MITCH MCCONNELL IS stymied. He can’t round up enough votes for a Senate Republican version of Trumpcare.
    Some Senate Republicans want to get rid of the Affordable Care Act entirely. Others don’t want to cause 22 million Americans to lose their coverage, as the Congressional Budget Office predicts will happen if the Senate version goes into effect.
    What should be the Democrats’ response? Over the coming weeks or months, Democrats must continue to

  • Health-care bill is wealth transfer

    Monday, July 3, 2017 11:09 AM
    THE SENATE’S BILL to repeal the Affordable Care Act is not a health-care bill. It’s a tax cut for the wealthiest Americans, paid for by a dramatic reduction in health-care funding for approximately 23 million poor, disabled and working middle-class Americans.
    America’s wealthiest taxpayers (earning more than $200,000 a year, $250,000 for couples) would get a tax cut totaling $346 billion over 10 years, representing what they save from no longer financing health care for lower-income Americans.
    That’s not all. The bill would save an additional

  • Infrastructure plan won’t help most

    Tuesday, June 20, 2017 11:04 AM
    AT A ROUND-TABLE discussion with state transportation officials last Friday, Donald Trump said America’s aging roads, bridges, railways and water systems were being scoffed at and laughed at. He vowed that they will once again be the envy of the world.
    This seems to be a core theme for Trump: America’s greatness depends on others envying us rather than scoffing and laughing at us.
    He said much the same thing when he

  • Trump making America meaner

    Tuesday, June 6, 2017 11:50 AM
    ON THE EVE of his recent election to the House of Representatives, Montana Republican Greg Gianforte beat up Ben Jacobs, a reporter for the British newspaper “The Guardian.”
    What prompted the violence? Jacobs had asked Gianforte for his reaction to the Congressional Budget Office report showing that the House Republican substitute for the Affordable Care Act would result in 23 million Americans losing their health insurance.
    Then, according to a Fox News team who witnessed the brutal attack “Gianforte grabbed

  • A roadmap to end Trump’s tenure

    Tuesday, May 23, 2017 11:28 AM
    THE QUESTION IS no longer whether there are grounds to impeach Donald Trump. The question is when enough Republicans will put their loyalty to America ahead of their loyalty to their party.
    Trump’s statements last week about his firing of former FBI Director James Comey provide

  • Trump looks like an authoritarian

    Tuesday, May 9, 2017 11:44 AM
    MORE THAN 100 days into his presidency, it seems fair to ask: What is Donald Trump’s governing philosophy?
    He isn’t really a Republican (he didn’t join the Republican Party until 2012). He’s hardly a free-market conservative (he’s eager to block trade and immigration). No one would mistake him for a

  • Trump varying on foreign policy

    Tuesday, April 25, 2017 11:16 AM
    WHAT’S THE DONALD “Trump Doctrine” of foreign policy? At first glance, foreign policy under Trump seems inconsistent, arbitrary and devoid of principle.
    A few weeks ago, even before the airstrike on Syria, White House Communications Director Mike Dubke told Trump’s assembled aides that international affairs presented a messaging challenge because the Trump administration lacks a coherent foreign policy. “There is no Trump doctrine,” reportedly declared

  • Trump cranks up the fog machine

    Tuesday, April 11, 2017 11:29 AM
    DONALD TRUMP’S TECHNIQUE for dealing with bad news is to create enough confusion and partisanship to envelope it in dense fog.
    Consider the most explosive news to come along in recent history: that the FBI has commenced an investigation of Trump aides to find out if they colluded with Russian agents to throw the election to Trump.
    Nothing remotely as serious has ever occurred in

  • Trump’s cruelty shows in budget

    Tuesday, March 28, 2017 11:14 AM
    THE THEME THAT unites Donald Trump’s major initiatives so far is their unnecessary cruelty.
    His new budget, for example, comes down especially hard on the poor, imposing unprecedented cuts in low-income housing, job training, food assistance, legal services, help to distressed rural communities, nutrition for

  • Trumps starts war on courts

    Tuesday, February 28, 2017 11:29 AM
    WITH CONGRESSIONAL REPUBLICANS in the majority in Congress and unwilling to cross Donald Trump, the job of containing Trump’s incipient tyranny falls to the three remaining centers of independent power: the nation’s courts, its press and a few state governments.
    Which is why Trump is escalating attacks on all three, seeking to

    Wednesday, February 1, 2017 8:11 AM
    TYRANTS DON’T ALLOW open questioning and they hate the free press. They want total control.
    That’s why, according to three senior officials on the transition team, the incoming Donald Trump administration is considering evicting the White House press corps from the press room inside the White House and moving them
