Barabak: ‘Cheat like hell.’ Trump’s summons to supporters lays bare his cynicism, hypocrisy (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Love or hate him, it must be said: Donald Trump is the most extraordinary politician of our time. He’s survived twin impeachments, a felony conviction, innumerable scandals, moral and ethical lapses, dunderheaded policies and countless exhibitions of heartlessness and bad taste, allowing him to reign over American life like no other figure in decades.

Barabak: As Newsom winds down in California, things heat up in Nevada (opens the original)
Read excerpt

Nixon and Ronald Reagan, has become a Democratic stronghold. It’s been 20 years since a GOP candidate won statewide office. Texas, which bred Democratic giants such as Sam Rayburn and Lyndon B.
