TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! Here come the Donald Trump books just in time for the last 90 days of the White House race. First up, Trump in Exile, by Meredith McGraw, which looks into his post-presidency life as the Count of Mar-a-Lago (my phrase). Maybe a better title would’ve been “The Man Who Wouldn’t Go Away.” The Donald tell-all I want to read is the one that peels back the covers on his marriage to Melania. I’d settle for a fictionalized version patterned after the excellent novel Rodham, about relationship between Bill and Hillary Clinton…Fifty years ago today, Richard Nixon slithered away from the White House. Just in time for this dark anniversary, there’s a new biography of Pat Nixon, Tricky Dickie’s First Lady. American Spectator’s Ben Stein, a former Nixon speechwriter gushes that it’s about “the Mrs. Nixon I have always loved”…Dept. of Surprises: The Wall Street Journal reports that Tim Walz and his wife Gwen have a net worth of only $330,000 based on his 2019 financial disclosure…The Wall Street Journal’s Peggy Noonan observes that Trump is showing his age and it’s become a campaign issue. Noonan writes, “For the first time this week I thought people were wondering about the impact of Mr. Trump’s age. He is 78. He hasn’t been able to focus, make his case. Is he, in another irony of 2024, turning into Joe Biden?” To quote singer Smokey Robinson: “I second that emotion.” And so apparently does The New Republic which referred to The Donald in a headline today as “Old Man Trump”…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.

Does Kamala Really Want to Be President?

Her actions and statements – or lack thereof – suggest she is not serious about governing.

Kamala Harris: Mystery Commander in Chief

source: Wall Street Journal

Kamala Harris is all but telling Americans they’ll have to elect her to find out what she really believes, as the Vice President ducks interviews and the media give her a free ride. This is bad enough on domestic issues, but on foreign policy it could be perilous.

Meet one of Kamala’s top lawyers: an Afghan immigrant who protected terrorists.

America Under Kamala Would Be Unsafe and Unaffordable for Women

By Lara Trump: Kamala Harris needs women voters to win, but prices have spiked for diapers and childcare.

Tampon Tim Is a Radical VP Pick

If Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz are elected president and vice president of the United States, Americans can look forward to higher prices, a deepening crisis at the border and increased civil unrest.

Veterans Will Not Be Fooled by Tim Walz

By Kurt Schlichter: What Kamala doesn’t know is that Tim Walz is going to alienate vets, except for the pinko blue falcons like the loathsome Vindmans and those Twitter goofs who insist you shouldn’t have an AR15 because they are experts, having once qualified “marksman” on an M4.

Walz’s Military Service Deserves Scrutiny

source: National Review

He should be commended for his long time in the National Guard, but it is legitimate to examine the timing of his retirement and his misleading statements.

Walz Abandoned His National Guard Comrades When They Needed Him the Most

source: TheFederalist

What makes Walz a whole different class of scumbag is how he has falsely used and abused his military record to further his political career.

Walz Is an Insult to the White Working Class

source: Human Events

Walz is, at least in theory, supposed to be the Democrats’ attempt at reaching out to the midwestern white working class. When Republicans tried to reach that demographic, they picked a Yale-educated Marine who’d made good and wanted to give back to his roots. The Democrats, on the other hand, picked an alcoholic gym teacher.

The state 'has gone from the quirky leftism of Garrison Keillor to the radicalism of Ilhan Omar'

Walz May Look Like a Midwestern Guy, But His Ideas Won’t Appeal to Them

source: NY Post

Imitation may be the sincerest form of flattery, but that makes mockery the most condescending form of contempt.

Portland on the Prairie

source: The Dispatch

Under his governorship and a Democratic-Farmer-Labor trifecta, Minnesota has been burning through the multi-billion-dollar surplus Walz inherited, mostly because Walz has never encountered a spending proposal he didn’t like—except for merit-based pay for teachers.

The Kamala-Walz Threat to the First Amendment

source: Washington Examiner

Tim Walz may have been a social studies teacher, but he would have failed Constitutional Law 101, especially the part about the First Amendment. His impulse to censor speech he does not like is shared by his Kamala Harris, who pushed for Twitter and Facebook to censor Trump even before Jan. 6.

Extreme Kamala, Extreme Walz

They’re ‘weird,’ too.

JD Vance Has Proven He Can Play

With Vance’s flair for the charming and eloquent jabs towards Harris and now Walz, yes, let’s let him take care of that sort of business. We should get Trump back on policy talk.
