    In A Statement That Surprised No One. Now With More Words Than Necessary to Explain it All.

    In a statement that surprised absolutely no one, Donald Trump decided not to run for President. Now here are more words than are necessary to explain it all.

    With Birther Issue Resolved, Trump to Set Sights on China and Taxes – HUMAN EVENTS

    My colleague Tony Lee has the latest on Donald Trump. Trump isn’t going to let China go. Potential 2012 Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump essentially forced President Obama to release his long form birth certificate today. With that issue resolved, Trump is likely to focus his sights on policy, such as on China and taxes. Yesterday, Trump signed Grover Norquist’s Americans For Tax Reform’s “no | Read More »

    Are Mike Pence and Chris Christie Paying Attention?
