Sen. Coons' war updates, action steps for democracy, what changed the NCAA, congressional inside trading, big money in our elections, April Ryan w/ Rep. Beatty, April Reign, and AG Ellison, & more!
USA Today has reported that President Trump, while seated next to Japan’s Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi in the Oval Office, compared our initial strikes on Iran to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, and said “We didn’t tell anyone about it because we wanted a surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan?”…. “Why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor?”
So the big question is: Is Trump rapidly descending into senility or is he just plain Dumb?
To support the latter conclusion, I would cite Trump's professor at Penn's prestigious Wharton School of Business and Finance, William T. Kelley, who said: "Donald Trump was the dumbest goddamn student I ever had”.
Perhaps we should just straddle the fence and declare that he’s both senile and dumb, which I concede are not admirable qualities for a President of the United States.
I couldn’t agree with Lorraine Forte more on her piece on big money in elections. The amount of money that can be donated to a political candidate should absolutely be capped. This should apply to individuals and organizations. Dark money seems to represent a significant portion of what political candidates acquire. Their campaigns should keep meticulous accounting records on these candidates and how much they spend. If the amount of capital can be reigned in perhaps there may be less corruption within our political system and institutions.
