JACKSON, Wyoming — When in doubt, baseball is the answer.

You gotta love Joe Biden. The guy has been part of the problem in Washington for 47 years. But now? Now, he is really going to get after it!

What kinds of political vultures sit around bobbing their nasty little heads in search of rotten carrion after a human catastrophe?

President Trump’s reelection campaign issued a “memorandum on enthusiasm” Sunday outlining the very “real and wide” gap in enthusiasm between Mr. Trump’s campaign and that of Joe Biden.

No wonder Joe Biden is hiding in his basement.

Brace for the fight of your life.

Why is anybody surprised to see the racial extortion, lawless rioting and selfish looting in the streets of America’s big cities today — all in the name of an unarmed black man named George Floyd, who died in police custody last week?

You can’t say you were not warned.
As President Trump has been saying for years now, “What have you got to lose?”

Again and again, it is President Trump’s quiet, patient modesty that shines through. Especially compared to the suffocating loud-mouthed arrogance of his predecessor.

Winston Churchill, the greatest half-American to ever live, is famously quoted as having said: “The best argument against democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.”

In a serial arson investigation, it is always the creeper who shows the most interest in the suspicious fires who becomes the primary suspect.

Anti-democratic Democrats opened up a new front in their relentless war on an independent judiciary in America.

It is almost worthy of a dark Netflix series to watch how the sins of these people keep coming back and back and back to revisit them. Their sins are like hulking black vultures stooped on the branches of a dead tree outside the front of their bleak, haunted house.

James Clapper, former director of national intelligence under President Barack Obama, took extreme umbrage when he was accused of lying to Congress after he lied under oath to Congress during 2013 testimony about the administration’s program of widespread surveillance of American citizens.

When it comes to the press, President Trump is the most generously available occupant of the White House since the invention of television. It is almost like the Trump presidency has been one continuous, never-ending live press conference.

While Mr. Trump gives political answers to political questions, Mr. Barr never strays from his lane of strict legal constitutionality.

I know what you are thinking. Everybody knows he is a swashbuckling, loud-mouthed, crass-talking Yankee. You know … Don. Don from Queens. The real estate mogul who slaps his name in gold on everything he owns. The guy who picks fights with reporters in wildly entertaining beatdowns worthy of the pro-wrestling circuit.

In other news, things are even worse than you though

At final long last — after nearly a year of bloodshed within his own party — Mr. Obama now endorses his long-suffering vice president, Joseph R. Biden.

Mr. Schiff and his band of twittering impeachment fairies have decided to turn the awesome powers of the legislative branch of the federal government into yet another weapon against Mr. Trump.

The Democrats have managed to strangle dissent within the party and smother Sen. Bernard Sanders‘ vibrant crusade in the crib — for the second time in four years.

As in life, in politics you should be careful what you ask for.

Tom Coburn was the last honest man in Washington.

Whatever you think about President Trump and his response to this global pandemic that sparked from a Chinese “wet market” selling wildlife, you cannot exactly be heartened to behold the response offered by Democrats.

Every pandemic has a silver lining. In this one, we have finally determined without any doubt that regular White House press briefings no longer serve any useful purpose and should never be resumed.

To paraphrase a former White House chief of staff, “Never let a pandemic go to waste.”

The Democrats’ nomination horror flick “Weekend at Bernie’s” has turned into an even dumber horror movie: “Grumpy Old Men.”

“Hot takes” in politics are a little like armpit noises. Anybody can make them and nobody wants to hear somebody else’s.

Presidential candidates won the past three elections by promising to end the longest war in American history. Only President Trump has taken concrete efforts to make good on that promise.

As the circus turns for South Carolina, every last adult in the Democrat Party has apparently left the parade.

In the land of political toadstools, former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg is a giant. Even without a box to stand on behind the debate podium.

NEW YORK CITY — Is it possible that President Trump has already beaten Sen. Bernard Sanders?

BEDFORD, New Hampshire — Democratic pols and media gasbags — not to repeat myself — have finally found somebody they hate nearly as much as they hate President Trump: Bernie Sanders.

MANCHESTER, N.H. — The most basic rule of bear hunting is: “If you are going to shoot a bear, don’t miss.” Or, as Ralph Waldo Emerson put it, “When you strike at a king, you must kill him.”

John Bolton. Joe Biden. Lev Parnas. Rudy Giuliani. The Ukrainians. President Trump. Vladimir Putin. Adam Schiff. The Whistleblower

The world on edge. A pandemic threatens from across the globe. The stock market nosedives and wipes out the year’s gains in one day.
