We completely obliterated Iran’s nuclear program. It’s gone. Fake news will never admit this.

So anyway, we have to send hundreds of billions of dollars worth of equipment to the Middle East and have a major war to stop Iran from building nuclear weapons.

Any political party spreading lies about voter fraud as a pretext to make it harder for every one to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

Brutal new polling finds Trump's net approval is -16 — down 22 points from inauguration day.

Every authoritarian action he's taking must be understood against the backdrop of his declining popularity.
