Rasmussen Poll: 60 Percent of Voters Think Race Relations Have Worsened under Obama

Only 60 percent? America didn’t have black assassins murdering police (as in Dallas and Baton Rouge) eight years ago who think that cops routinely kill African-Americans just for yucks. The other 40 percent of poll responders must be asleep.

The lives of black Americans have not improved economically under the black president, and many may […]

Rasmussen Poll: Majority of Voters Believe Government Acts against Their Interests, Particularly in Trade Deals

The pundit class and the press generally were caught flat-footed about the success of Donald Trump, and before that, they bashed the Tea Party as racist and mean-spirited for wanting a restoration of Constitutional government, national sovereignty and other traditional values.

Donald Trump was not the first person to notice that the globalized economy of […]

Trump Thumps the Great God Globalism

Quarter-Mile-Long Container Ship Docks at Los Angeles Port

Here’s a postcard from the expanding globalized economy: outsourced manufacturing requires mega-shipping to transport the cheaply-produced goods back to American consumers.

Pew Research: America Is No Longer Majority Middle Class

A Pew study (The American Middle Class Is Losing Ground) released on Wednesday found that the number of Americans living in a middle-class household had fallen to below half.

That’s a major event, because America is supposed to be a middle-class nation, not like backward countries such as Brazil where the great majority of people […]

Pew Poll: Republican Voters Notice Washington GOP’s Obama-Friendly Governance

Did the GOP leadership of the House and Senate think that party voters wouldn’t detect their consistent failure to oppose Obama policies of crazed overspending, globalized trade and immigration amnesty, among others?

America’s Senator Jeff Sessions Demands Trade Agreements That Will Benefit Americans

Elite Liberal Press Takes Aim at Global Trade

Politics sometimes seems like musical chairs, where politicians take positions on account of the situation of the moment and then remain in place despite all reason.

America’s Senator Jeff Sessions Warns White House Wants Fast-Track Authority before TPP Deal Is Public
