From the desk of… How Trump betrays Hispanics (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The flight of Hispanic voters from the Republican Party is one of the most important trends this political season, and a few numbers explain why. In the latest New York Times poll, only 7 percent of Hispanics say the economy is better than a year ago, while 68 percent say it’s worse. Fully 80 percent disapprove of Trump’s economic record. So, while Trump received 46 percent of the Hispanic vote two years ago, the best showing ever by a Republican candidate, it’s no surprise that 4 out of 5 Hispa

“Please pretend that I am running,” Trump told Republicans at their recent convention in Dallas. Well, no one has to pretend. Democrats agree completely. They also want voters to view the November elections as a referendum on Trump’s presidency. Both sides have good reasons to follow these similar campaign strategies.

Leaders can only be effective, in the long run, if other stakeholders — voters, allies, rivals — respect, believe and trust you. To keep your word. To play straight. Trump, as

The 60-day ceasefire between the United States and Iran has expired. The war drags on through its sixth month with no peace talks scheduled and no end in sight. Only one conclusion is possible: Donald Trump’s ignorant and egotistical decision to attack Tehran has been a total disaster. None of his stated goals have been achieved, and the administration is so confused that it cannot even agree on what those goals still are. Vice President JD Vance proclaimed on Fox News, “That’s goal No. 1 — keep
