The world’s only one man media empire
In a country where we tax everything, tariffs have been singled out as uniquely disastrous, but why, when any argument applied to tariffs in particular can be applied to taxes in general? There will always be a potential upside – more revenue raised and/or a change in behavior – and a downside, namely an increase… Continue reading The truth about tariffs, the only tax the establishment doesn’t like
Though it’s traditional that an incoming President has six months if not a full year before the economy can be considered their responsibility, Trump was barely provided a week and even worse, some claim he should be held accountable for what hasn’t happened yet and might never happen. The criticisms of President Donald Trump are… Continue reading Trump’s critics are livin’ in the future on tariffs and everything else, imagining calamities that haven’t happened yet and might never
In the real world, everyone instinctively knows this is impossible, that you cannot subsidize your way to rich, all while embracing the Toyota and Timex equivalent. Why? To the extent Vice President Kamala Harris has an economic policy, it can perhaps best be summarized as a continuation of President Joe Biden’s subsidize everything approach, where… Continue reading A Ferrari in every driveway and a Rolex on every wrist
In a wise strategic decision for both campaigns, Governor Walz focused almost exclusively on former President Trump’s unfitness for office and Senator Vance presented a calm, compelling, and rational case for President Trump without the usual bombast. Much has been made of the fact that Tuesday’s Vice Presidential debate between Senator JD Vance and Governor… Continue reading A civil debate, but not for the reasons many think
Fortunately for former President Donald Trump and his supporters, Presidential Debates are not won on points, indeed they aren’t really won or lost at all given the only score that matters is the final tally on election day itself. If Presidential Debates were scored by collegiate rules, Vice President Harris won Tuesday’s contest against Donald… Continue reading A debate in the eye of the beholder
The silly season ended yesterday, but the only way she can win is to hope it continues through the election. Those hailing her meteoric ascension should do well to remember that meteors don’t rise. They fall to Earth, either disappearing in a flash in the atmosphere or causing havoc down below. Perhaps the most stunning… Continue reading Everyone knows Vice President Kamala Harris is awful, just like President Joe Biden before her
Under anything resembling normal circumstances, the spectacle of a massive protest by members of the Democrat Party outside the Democrat National Convention would garner at least a few words, but the need to buttress the largely false narrative of joy and unity overwhelms honesty and integrity. To hear the mainstream media tell it, the Democrat… Continue reading The DNC’s prevailing narrative is so far from the truth it might as well be a broadcast from another dimension
Sherry won’t abandon her mother, and the speaker is either stuck with the three of them jammed into the same small car, or he can move on, hoping to catch the eye of one of those “girls melting on the beach,” but the Vice President doesn’t have that option when it comes to casting off… Continue reading Biden’s “Sherry Darling” moment at the DNC because Governor Walz is such a Springsteen fan
One narrative holds that Vice President Kamala Harris has created the most joyous, transcendent election campaign since President Barack Obama in less than three weeks. Another is that she has done absolutely nothing except garner larger crowds, read someone else’s scripts, and pose for the cameras. Like magic, the media has settled on a new… Continue reading Let them eat joy
Like a kaleidoscope that is constantly shifting, you see everything if you are a fan and nothing if you are a foe. To say he did it his way, is an underestimate for the ages. It’s better to say, he did it the only way he knows how, and perhaps the way no one else… Continue reading Trump and the convention speech only he could give
