Could Obama pardon Clinton before she’s even charged with a crime? Absolutely.

The former Republican president who Trump most resembles isn’t Reagan, but Herbert Hoover, who served from March 1929 to March 1933, when his reelection bid was defeated by Franklin D. Roosevelt.

You’d think the military would be more favorable to a former secretary of the State Department—unless her performance at State is precisely why the troops refuse to support her.

The American people are blaming other countries and other people for a slow-growth wound that is self-inflicted.

"I think there will be some significant number who identify as Republicans who will be grousing pretty seriously," said Michael Barone during a luncheon at the Renaissance Hotel on Wednesday, featured speaker for the Institute for Policy Innovation.
