What do we know? Hillary is a challenged candidate. But, Hillary is smart, wonky, knows details, has a domestic and foreign policy and is liberal. Then there is Don Trump. Trump is ethically challenged, lies daily and consistently. He doesn't know basic geography, basic law, political reality, the powers of the Presidency, manners, common decency... and really has no interest in learning any of that. He doesn't have a real policy position on any domestic issues, or foreign policy, that doesn't change frequently and inconsistently. So...

It looks like he's losing badly (based upon polls, but yanno, how reliable are those?). I wish it were November and this nightmare was over.

A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich
