The Court of Mad King Donald is not a presidency. It is an affliction, one that saps the life out of our democratic institutions, and it must be fiercely resisted if the nation as we know it is to survive. I wish that were hyperbole. The problem is not just that President Trump is selfish, insecure, egotistical, ignorant and unserious. It is that he neither fully grasps nor minimally respects the concept of honor, without which our governing system falls apart. He believes “honorable” means “obsequious in the service of Trump.” He believes everyone else’s motives are as base as his. The Trump administration is, indeed, like the court of some accidental monarch who is tragically unsuited for the duties of his throne. However long it persists, we must never allow ourselves to think of the Trump White House as anything but aberrant. We must fight for the norms of American governance lest we forget them in their absence. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/the-worst-is-yet-to-come/2017/07/27/9c2bef6a-72ff-11e7-8f39-eeb7d3a2d304_story.html?utm_term=.56bc735853cd |

What truly amazes me is that there are still people in America who pay to subscribe to the Washington Post.....I suspect that if they didn't have this liberal rag to read, they would buy the National Inquirer at the grocery store to keep up on important national events........... :oyvey |

Trump has not used Peggy Noonan as a speech writer.....She wrote George H W Bush's "Read my lips,no new taxes" speech which caused his defeat in reelection....Her opinions area disaster.............

Leftists have been say doomsday since the election results. Nothing new but more paranoia. |

All opinion is biased. Much like your belief WaPo is fake news. No one here gives a sh!t what you think of WaPo. And here I thought you had some intelligence. |

No, they don't. Not in the states which vote Republican. |

Skipping leg day is the equivalent of a woman having an abortion. You're ashamed of it, and it was probably unnecessary. #MAGA #wallsnotwars | |

New subscriptions for the Washington Post now have the paper at near early 70s numbers, due in-large part to its journalistic excellence in reporting on the corrupt Trump administration. With on-line subscriptions making the Washington Post one of the most popular papers in the country. |
