We won’t drink to that
Coming to grips with mid-term defeat. A few observations: Can Wisconsin even be considered a purple state anymore? A battleground, swing state? Democrats control all three branches of government — including the state supreme court. The Marquette University poll got it right by predicting a 7-point David Crowley victory; the Democrat won the governorship by…

Out, damned spot
America wasn’t tired of Donald Trump; it is sick of him. We don’t blame Donald Trump for the washout in Tuesday’s mid-term elections as much as we blame his enablers. His yes-men never brought the certifiably narcissistic head case to heel. They indulged the man’s worst instincts. They stymied their gag reflex, fearing his retribution.…

This second time around for Donald Trump has just been an awful presidency so far, significantly worse than his first, which is saying something. And the broader Republican Party has mostly enabled it all, or at least has behaved as though it has all been fine, and so has earned the rebuke it got, too. …
[His real accomplishments] have been overwhelmed by the broader tenor of this administration, which has utterly lacked any public-spirited vision or direction and has allowed itself to be defined by Trump’s own vapid impulsivity and thuggish narcissism, and to descend into shameless personal corruption. …
