President Trump is the most courageous, imaginative, and dynamic American political leader in more than a quarter-century. He is willing to tackle huge problems and fiercely pursue bold and inventive courses in search of solutions to problems that cowardly politicians have ignored for decades. None of that was on display Monday in Helsinki.
In this era of mob rule, a fellow like Rep. Steve Cohen might want to keep a sharp eye out for crowds of people with buckets of tar and garbage bags full of white feathers. Back home in Tennessee, he might also want to keep an eye out for any crowds carrying a rail. As in "the thing on which they might run him out of town."
So, here the season is upon us again. There was a brief and disappointing tango with "Will Chelsea Run?" Yikes. Now we are back to "Will Hillary Run Again?"
Of course the whole point of replacing retiring Justice Anthony Kennedy is overturning Roe v. Wade. That and a thousand other egregious overreaches by the panel of unelected, robed autocrats.
Call it the summer of '68. Rioters in the streets. Communists on the ballot.
"Beware the coming civil war!" Coming? Oh, it's already upon us. And it has been raging for some time now.
Perhaps the truest truism in politics is this: If you are explaining, you are losing.
Thousands of poor, innocent children streaming illegally across the border!
However rotten and ungovernable you thought the federal swamp was, it really is so much worse. Indeed, it will take a hundred Donald Trumps to carve out all the cancer riddling this federal government. Behold, Rod Rosenstein, the very face of the swamp Leviathan.
Call it "Sitting Bull in a china shop."
Heading into midterm elections in which history predicts massive wins for them, the donkey party has a new slogan: "Vote Democrat. The Party of Doom and Gloom."
No president from either party over the past three decades has earned the inheritance of Ronald Reagan on the world stage quite like President Trump has.
At the end of all the scandal and drama, all of the breathlessly reported lies and false accusations, at the end of all the money wasted on some zany kabuki swamp dance choreographed to the thrumming of giant bullfrogs and yipping of excited coyotes — at the end of all of this — it comes down to precisely what we said it was a year and a half ago.
President Trump stunned the whole world and scandalized the American political class last year by announcing that he was not lying during the campaign when he promised to move the American Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.
Perhaps the Iran agreement would not be so easy to tear up had it not been written out on wet toilet paper to begin with. Had it been an actual treaty, President Trump would not be able to do this.
Once again, America finds John McCain heroically fighting for his life, this time against cancer. Perhaps inspired by such heroism, John Kerry has dusted off his old turncoat from his French closet and is turning traitor against the United States again.
How long does it take for a good man -- a farmer from Big Sandy, Montana -- to become thoroughly corrupted by the lies and evil ways of Washington? Less than two terms in the U.S. Senate, it turns out.
"We're gonna win so much," then-candidate Donald Trump advised supporters, "you may even get tired of winning."
Call it a pole-dancing standoff between the Siren Stripper and the Leakin' Lyin' Nasty Giraffe, code-named "Slimeball" by the highest levels of the United States government.
Every single one of these people in Congress expressing shock and condemnation over Facebook's sale of persuasion power to political entities already knew exactly what Facebook has been up to for years. Because each and every one of them has used those very tactics to get elected.
