Donald Trump’s debt solution reminds me of Jay Leno’s Dorito’s commercial.  To paraphrase:  Don’t worry, we’ll print more.  For those of us in the ABC camp (Anybody But Clinton), we’ll be supporting Trump because there isn’t a viable alternative in 2016...

There are some members of #nevertrump still under the delusion the man can be stopped.  They’ve been plotting how they can deny him the Republican Party nomination for President at the national convention this summer.  This morning I saw a TV host explain through use of a map how Trump will fall short of a first ballot victory by 22 delegates...

We were warned.  The Donald isn't a true conservative.  Now that he appears the likely Republican Party nominee for President, the pivot isn't in any lack of name calling.  The pivot is to throw social conservatives under the bus.  Suddenly, he favors a path to citizenship for illegal aliens and cross-dressers in women's bathrooms...

The colorful Chairman of the Twin Falls County Republican Party is making some predictions.  Steve Millington is looking beyond the New York State Presidential Primary and forecasting conventions.  He also spent some time with us Tuesday morning talking about the weak opposition in Idaho’s U...

Middle and working class America is said to be angry as all get out.  Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders are offered as evidence.  Why are so many people fed up?  A prolonged economic slump.  The hypocrisy of the elites.  The shelving of what we once called common sense...

Climate change sceptics could find themselves subject to a new Inquisition.  One third of the state Attorneys General in the United States are planning to intimidate, prosecute and punish “climate deniers”.  While they may not be coming to your neighborhood you could wager they’ll be coming for sceptics who occupy positions of influence...

Are more than half of your countrymen racists, bigots and haters?  A new YouGov poll says more than half of Americans are now opposed to accepting additional Muslim refugees.  Each bold attack by Islamo-fascists pushes the poll numbers higher...

I watched the staccato Corey Lewandowski video.  I can’t make much out of it but to say he does grab the woman and move her aside.  Having spent 17 years as a field reporter I’m telling you this is nothing unusual.  I’ve been pushed, grabbed and had my life threatened...

Bernie Sanders and Ted Cruz own the Mountain West.  Sanders shelled Hillary Clinton in Idaho and Utah.  Cruz has now won both states as well as Wyoming.  What gives in these places?  Following last night’s political brawls we delved into some theories...

Idaho Democrats are making a choice today between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.  The Caucus is open to registered Democrats and any independents and Republicans who didn’t vote in the GOP Primary two weeks ago (I guess the 26 percent of Republicans who missed the other vote can come out and monkey wrench tonight’s Caucus)...

Pollsters say Republican anger has reached a new zenith after the Nevada GOP Caucus.  Donald Trump scored his biggest victory yet and the number of voters claiming they're angry eclipsed previous caucus and primary states.  My show today had a theme about the anger and the cause...

Idaho Republicans have a primary on March 8th but the Democrats are instead planning a caucus much later in the month.  Here are 10 explanations:     The state’s only remaining telephone booth wasn’t available in early March ... Read More ...

In a major statement against the current political establishment, businessman Donald Trump and Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont have won the first primaries of the 2016 election season.

You’ll be hearing plenty about Donald Trump’s latest campaign commercial (see it here) as mainstream media reaches for the sand shovels and squirms in its collective pants. This is about the most direct campaign ad I’ve ever seen. By the way, when media now says Hillary was right about Trump being a recruiter for ISIS do you think it’s possible she offered the idea in the first place...

Some fellow wrote a lengthy academic piece a few years ago making a claim we vote for the candidate who comes across as nicest.  The media image of Ted Cruz is anything but nice.  He’s portrayed as shrill and mean-spirited.  As an admirer of Cruz and his great intellect I’d place him among my personal finalists in the Republican Party...

The media rape of Ben Carson continues.  Nobody goes to jail for assault, for now.  As we slide through our Weimar Republic phase journalists should brush up on history.  If you didn’t already know it both CNN and Politico have launched scathing attacks on Carson in recent days and then been caught red-handed committing malpractice...

Steve Martin once summed up cultural differences by saying, “It’s as if those French have a different word for everything!”  I’m reminded language isn’t always the barrier when I follow mainstream media in the United States (I’m told it’s no better in Western and Northern Europe)...

America is experiencing the effects of a C.L.O.T.  A friend shared the acronym and tells me it stands for Closed Loop of Tyranny.  I’m reflecting today on the number of people openly using the word revolution.  I mentioned in a post a few days ago a new book about the upcoming fourth American Revolution...

Don’t be shocked if Bernie Sanders is the next President of the United States.  Saying it could happen isn’t an endorsement.  It’s a prediction based on the man raising 25 million dollars from 650-thousand individual contributors.  Last week I suggested the money could only come from Wall Street in such a large amount...

Before I get into this too far and get everyone's political panties in a bunch - I know very little about politics. But I do know that this debate would be awesome!
