Outside the Beltway

Remember, remember the fifth of November…

Trump, Bezos, and the slippery slope of authoritarianism.

Staffers are in mutiny after owners killed plans to endorse Kamala Harris for President.

Our long national nightmare is not over.

With a guest appearance by Hitler.

And yes, Trump fits the definitions all too well.

The 45th President and the press, part a million.

A mild-mannered JD Vance out-debated a nervous Tim Walz. It won’t matter.

A chilling feature from the Wall Street Journal.

They have a preference but may not vote.

The skews may offset.

It’s not 2019 anymore.

A Republican columnist is angry that Trump, not Harris, is being seen as the incumbent.

His former National Security Advisor is not impressed.

The sitting Vice President isn’t getting blamed for the economy.

A stark contrast in vibes.

Or maybe a gift certificate to some online poli sci courses?

A surreal Democratic National Convention.

The soft bigotry of low expectations.

Democrats suddenly have multiple paths to victory.

Where will it go?

His Presidential aspirations may have played a big factor

Perfectly sensible suggestions that are unconstitutional, politically infeasible, or both.

A better articulation of the problem.

Five minutes is an eternity in the current information environment.

Bonus track: “I am not Christian”

We’re back to Square 1.

Is all diversity created equal?

The President’s support is considerably stronger among Black Democrats.

Even getting shot, he can’t pretend to be a unifying force for long.

Trump’s second term would be much worse than his first.

Efforts to oust him from the race have picked up steam.

Some interesting, if unworkable, ideas.

Doubling down on the MAGA.

There’s something for everyone in the post-debate surveys.

But the story will continue for a while yet.

The President’s demand that Democrats shut up and rally behind him is going unheeded.

The changes are minor but in the wrong direction for the guy who’s behind.

Are the press out to get the President? Or abetting a coverup?

The big interview did little to ease doubts that he’s up to another four years.

The President is going all-in to undo the damage from the debate.

Who are you going to believe, the WSJ or your lying eyes?

Sounds dramatic, but not very convincing.

Immunity leading to impunity?

All of the legal remedies are impossible.

Too little, too late.
