Ronald Reagan said: “When you’re explaining, you’re losing.” By that standard, even as he’s winning in the primary battle (odds-makers give him a 73 percent chance of winning against Bernie Sanders), Joe Biden is doing a whole lot of losing. The former vice president and his team are working overtime to explain that Biden is not suffering […]
Who won on Super Tuesday? Clearly, it was Donald Trump. First, let us be clear: Joe Biden did not win on that big primary day; the Democratic establishment did. It is true that the former vice president outperformed expectations and prevented Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) from rolling up a quick trip to the nomination. But the main reason for […]
The results from Super Tuesday are in. Here’s what they tell us: 1) The primary contest is a two-horse race: former Vice President Joe Biden versus Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. 2) Americans are not ready for a revolution, and they don’t like Fidel Castro. But, Sanders is not going away. 3) The Democratic establishment is so […]
The coronavirus plunged a knife in the heart of our raging bull market last week. So did Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. That’s what some top investors are saying, suggesting the stock sell-off reflected anxieties about the spreading disease, to be sure, but also real alarm that the socialist ideologue could actually become our next president. That possible outcome to the chaotic Democratic […]
Could the coronavirus be the magic bullet to kill off the Trump presidency? Desperate Democrats certainly hope so; they imagine the spreading disease will knock confidence and our robust economy for a loop, undermining President Trump’s best argument for reelection. Who can be surprised? The Democratic primary season has launched Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., the […]
It’s the invasion of the body snatchers! Mike Bloomberg – the pragmatic, smart, centrist former New York City mayor – has been replaced by just another union-loving, anti-business, tax-and-spend liberal, who sounds a lot like every other Democrat in the race. No wonder he’s not wowing voters. On March 3, 40 percent of Americans […]
Bernie Sanders is on a roll. After a strong showing in Iowa and New Hampshire, and “Berning” through Nevada, the socialist senator from Vermont is without a doubt the Democrat front-runner. Odds-makers are giving Bernie a 55 percent chance of becoming the Democrat nominee. Which raises a legitimate question: Do Democrats actually want to win the White House in […]
Michael Bloomberg will finally appear on a debate stage tonight, and you can be sure his rivals will be gunning for him. He and five other candidates vying for the Democratic nomination will meet in Las Vegas, just days before the Nevada caucuses on February 22. Bloomberg made the cut for the debate by scoring […]
How bad is China? So bad that they are “disappearing” those telling the truth about the coronavirus. So bad that their leader, President Xi Jinping, apparently knew about the disease weeks before he fessed up to the public, possibly delaying the creation of treatments and jeopardizing millions. So bad that President Trump […]
Who is the likely winner of today’s New Hampshire primary? Mike Bloomberg, even though he in not competing in the Granite State. Here’s why: Former Vice President Joe Biden is going to place fourth or fifth, continuing his dismal results from Iowa and raising new concerns about his electability. Heading into South Carolina, where he […]
