A Successful Presidency, a Maddening President
President Trump is projected to lose a close election.
This being modern America, nothing is final until the courts have spoken (particularly the Supreme Court, which has been too timid to say much). That process must be allowed to play out. To my knowledge, there is no hard evidence at this point of anything ...

Who Won?
Donald Trump thinks he won the election. He also thinks that the reason it looks like he may not have won the election is massive voting fraud. At least, he says he thinks that. He said he won the so-called popular vote in 2016, too, and the only reason that it looked like he didn’t was massive voting fraud. ...

He could order a nuclear strike, or take Air Force One to San Diego for no reason at all, if he likes. But, the big event is ...
