Mattis vs. Trump vs. NATO vs. Putin vs. Mueller Before Midterms

George Will Is Right: Vote the GOP Out

George Will Is Right

Obama Should Lift Dems, Now

Obama Spied on My Campaign

Brent Budowsky: If Obama comes out swinging in 2018 as RFK came out swinging in 1968 he would light up the television screens and social media platforms with saturation coverage of the political battle of our century between two competing parties and visions.

Barack, You’re Wrong About Bernie

Obama Wrong On Sanders

Brent Budowsky: Obama is wrong — and insulting to voters — when he suggests that they need him or the media to determine whether they should put their faith in Sanders.

Trump the Loser

Trump the Loser

Brent Budowsky: What Trump does is endlessly repeat the same insult against an opponent and let the media repeat it endlessly until it sticks to his target. In advertising this is called branding. It gave the world “little Marco,” “lying Ted” and “low-energy Jeb” to which I add today “Trump the loser.”

Harry’s Last Laugh

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid

Brent Budowsky: With Mitch McConnell telling Senate Republicans it would be OK for them to attack Donald Trump if he becomes the GOP’s nominee, Harry Reid is within reach of enjoying the last laugh of his legislative career and leading Democrats back to control of the Senate.

Anybody-But-Cruz-or-Trump Move Coming Soon

Cruz or Trump

Brent Budowsky: The problem facing the GOP establishment is that none of the center-right candidates — all of whom would be credible candidates and presidents — have emerged as front-runners for the anybody-but-Cruz mantle. Cruz or Trump

What Hillary Needs to Hear

Hillary Clinton Campaign

Brent Budowsky: Young people and many independents and others support Sanders because he believes in the power and nobility of the dream, while cynics claim those dreams are “naive” and “unrealistic” and should be abandoned before the battle to make them come true has even begun.

Bernie Surges: DC Insiders Panic

Bernie Surges

Brent Budowsky: What the insider Washington Democratic establishment fails to understand is that the issues Sanders raises have great appeal to the broad nation.
