Donald Trump’s America: Scary but fixable

Donald Trump painted a foreboding picture Thursday of an America adrift as he accepted the Republican presidential nomination with a sober speech in Cleveland. He invoked a nation imprisoned by its own rotten political establishment and clawing special interests, at risk from terrorists who could be disguised as Syrian refugees and stalked by tens of thousands of illegal immigrant criminals.

Donald Trump’s Message: “I Am Your Voice:” The…

The Manhattan mogul sold himself as the champion of a downtrodden working class - "America's blue-collar billionaire" as one speaker had called him earlier in the evening - promising to restore "law and order" and casting himself as a change agent against presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.

Law, order and the ghost of Tom Joad: Thursday’s RNC takeaways

The Republican National Convention ended with a night free of rancor in the convention hall, with the Q packed to the rafters and the party loyal appearing ready, at least for this night, to take on Hillary Clinton in the fall campaign. It also ended with an uncharacteristic speech by Donald Trump, delivering acceptance remarks relatively free of insults or superlative-laden boasts.

Trump’s Party Is Bush’s Party: The GOP Hasn’t Changed

It is always equal parts amusing and sad to me when the national pundit consensus reaches some new and completely incorrect position out of a combination of mind meld and laziness. The popular one, culminating in Donald Trump's acceptance of the Republican Party's presidential nomination, is that he represents a strange and dark turn away from what the party has previously stood for.

From the GOP, the unconscionable coronation of a clown

The first time I contemplated a Donald Trump presidency, after he won the first debate on browbeating tactics and crass antics, I joked: He could be our first Chusma -in-Chief! It's no longer a joke. The coronation of a gruff reality star whose demeanor fluctuates from clown to bully is now part of American history.

Hillary’s Management Style: Insufferable Female Boss

Have you ever had a crazy boss who just happened to be a woman? Someone who micromanages, lashes out uncontrollably, and is just simply unpleasant? God forbid our country should be on the verge of getting such a boss. Hillary Clinton is supposed to represent the proposition that women are indeed qualified for leadership every bit as much as men, and are just as logical and cool-headed.

Letters: Why keep promises you disagree with?

Re: "Thunderous boos for Cruz for refusing to endorse Trump" [News, July 21]: With reference to Ted Cruz not endorsing Trump, the main question is this: Is there anything Trump could have said or done after Cruz's promise to endorse that would ethically allow Cruz to withdraw his promise? If Trumps insulting Cruz's family is not enough, what if Trump said something even bombastic for him? Or what if there was a scandal of some sort involving him? At what point do we stop saying the pedantic phrase "A promise is a promise"? Promises are predicated on those involved behaving in a way that is rational and moral to a reasonable person.
