The election math isn’t as bad as we thought. But the coming Trump administration is shaping up to be worse.

Consider how resoundingly she succeeded in her 107-day campaign—and what that means about how deep the problems are that we need to solve.

Laura Gillen should have won a congressional seat in 2022—but the New York Democratic Party was in shambles. This time, her creepy ex-cop opponent is going down.

She has another week, and so does Trump. But comparing her excellent Ellipse speech to Trump’s Madison Square Garden satyricon is absurd.

The former first lady’s incandescent speech on Saturday night in Michigan centered women’s bodies and excoriated the man who gropes but won’t protect them.

It took a reference to Arnold Palmer’s penis to get more mainstream reporters to tell it like it is. That’s progress.

This ought to calm the media malcontents who’ve insisted she hasn’t sat for enough interviews, right? Wrong.

Mainstream journalists are making something very simple too complicated: Republicans want a national abortion ban.

Last night’s interview with MSNBC showed that Harris doesn’t have to choose a hostile anchor for an interview in which the public hears tough questions and fleshed-out answers.

In 2012, the GOP fielded candidates who didn’t know how our bodies worked. In 2024, Trump drones on about protecting us, and is equally disturbing.
