It was a popular Washington sport: find the past president who best explained Donald Trump. There was a touch of Andrew Jackson’s populism, a dash of Richard Nixon’s skulduggery, a sprinkling of Ronald Reagan’s myth-making. But now all that is over, who are the closest matches to Joe Biden?

Here's how John McCain made it clear he was happy to see you in the Senate hallways. Such rascally greetings produced smiles before the discussion or tough questions even had begun.
I had the honor of covering Sen. John McCain and frankly, it was one hell of a ride. He along with Sen. Jack Kemp , Sen. Edward Kennedy and Sen. Joe Biden all were leaders that knew the best way to run the country was to do it in a bi-partisan manner.
"I think it would be a great tribute, because then for decades to come, everyone who came to Washington would know the very special place that John McCain held - has held and will continue to hold in our country," she said by phone on ABC's "This Week with George Stephanopoulos."

Many expected Chappaquiddick to be right-wing propaganda. After all, why make a feature-length film about what happened that 1969 night when Sen. Edward Kennedy drove a car off a bridge, resulting in the death of passenger Mary Jo Kopechne, if not to score political points? But Chappaquiddick tells a story that's not about policy, left or right, but about glamour and the often brutal assertion of privilege and power.
Amy Kennedy gave birth Sunday night to the couple's fourth child, Marshall, at AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center in New Jersey.

Sen. Ted Kennedy Jr., D-Branford, exits the state Capitol after his last session ends in May, 2018. He's not seeking re-election after two terms in the Senate.
Among the “scrambled thoughts” that came to a young Ted Kennedy as he stumbled from the water into which he had crashed his Oldsmobile, killing his passenger and crippling his political career, was a sort of existential question, if not a supernatural one.
