The China Household Finance Survey run by Gan Li at Chengdu’s Southwestern University of Finance and Economics, recently found that one fifth–that’s 20%–of Chinese homes do not have occupants. Instead these homes are owned as investments in what could be one of the world’s most distorted markets ever. Back in February of 2012, I wrote […]
The Blue Wave Was Small: Trump is Ready for 2020.
With an expanded slate of senators, and an easily surmountable Democrat majority in the House, Trump is ready for 2020. Until then, he can focus on stacking the courts with originalist, constitutionalist judges vetted by The Federalist Society, and on renegotiating the terrible trade deals, alliances, and treaties in which two decades of unabated globalism […]
Obama: “A Campaign Blight Throughout His Presidency”
At The American Spectator, Dov Fischer compares the performance of Barack Obama’s midterm campaigning to that of Donald Trump’s. While Obama coming to town was a death knell for many Democrats in 2010 and 2014, Donald Trump singlehandedly saved the candidacies of a number of senatorial, gubernatorial, and House candidates. Fischer writes (abridged): Ultimately, that […]
I Voted for Florida’s “Jobs Savior” Rick Scott
And I voted, like every small business owner in Florida, against the worst governor candidate in America, the under-a-dark-cloud Andrew Gillum, an anti-jobs socialist. And I voted against tired “Old Bill” Nelson, part of a bygone era of political hacks and losers. What a misfit “Old Bill” has been in an era of the “jobs savior” […]
Trump and Americans: Big Winners on Election Night
President Trump, with his huge win in the Senate can focus laser like on readying perhaps two new pro-2nd Amendment-strong Supreme Court nominations. I’m looking here at young justices in the Clarence Thomas, Antonin Scalia mode. The President, while not hip-hop happy, will, with a wave of his hand and a big smile, simply dismiss […]
Progressives Take the House? Trump Prevails Regardless
No problem. None at all. Donald Trump will be working with a poised pen and full inkwell. Any legislation progressives might be able to jam through a House still loaded with Republicans and cantankerous Blue Dog Democrats and NRA-A-rated Democrats will be Trump vetoed. Progressives will attempt to override a presidential veto. But. oops, from […]
Congratulations Rick Scott and Ted Cruz
Despite the media’s embarrassingly fevered coverage of “Beto” O’Rourke, and the character assassination heaped upon Rick Scott, both Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Scott (R-FL) were successful in their campaigns for the Senate. Daniel R. Depetris explains in The American Conservative that while the Democrats had a great night in the House, it was horrific for […]
If Democrats Take the House What Happens Next?
At The American Conservative, Pat Buchanan explains how if the Democrats take the house, they will be the perfect foil to President Donald Trump’s criticisms. The Democrat Party will then have responsibility, but no real power. Pat writes: In the final days of this election, Bloomberg just invested $5 million to air, twice nationally, a […]
George Mason: For Better or for Worse, the People Decide
William Murchison, writing at The American Spectator details how George Mason, writer of the Virginia Declaration of Rights and one of America’s founding fathers impressed upon Americans to preserve their founding principles of liberty. Murchison writes: What we can all say with resonant voice and unflinching confidence about the Nov. 6 elections is that… is […]
Donald Trump on the Road: “The Fake News. So fake.”
Dov Fischer, writing at The American Spectator explains President Donald Trump’s furious campaigning in the run up to tomorrow’s election. Trump has been criss-crossing the country stumping for candidates who need help. Fischer explains how the President’s great stump speech unfolds: But what of Trump?
