• The Mitt has just hit the fan: Why Romney’s stunning denunciation of Trump matters

  03-03-2016 22:53 via salon.com
  
  Imagine this for a moment. Imagine if Bernie Sanders was the uncontested Democratic frontrunner. Now imagine if John Kerry, the last Democratic candidate for president to come up short on election day, delivered a major televised address in which he mercilessly vivisected Bernie's perceived lack of qualifications, referring to the Vermont senator as "a phony, a fraud." Next, imagine the proverbial nuclear detonation that Kerry's remarks would’ve launched within the party -- followed closel

  On the list of despicable, disgusting things Jared Fogle has done, you'd think gaining weight wouldn't even crack the top five.At this point in his life — and for the rest of it — Fogle should be best known as a convicted pedophile and future registered sex offender.

  In a Portland, Maine, rally Thursday, Donald Trump responded to criticism from Mitt Romney's speech earlier in the day, calling Romney a "lightweight" and a "choke artist.""Mitt is a failed candidate," Trump said. "He failed badly. That was a race that should have been won."Trump admitted that he endorsed Romney in 2012, explaining, "He was begging for my endorsement. I could have said, ‘Mitt, drop to your knees,’ he would have dropped to his knees."Trump described hosting a "ve

  Bernie Sanders' path to the presidency was never going to be easy. After surging in the polls and consistently proving America's political establishment wrong, Sanders won Colorado and other states on Super Tuesday. He still has a path to win the Democratic nomination via the primaries, but Bernie Sanders just won the presidency for another reason: Hillary Clinton's quest for "convenience."Bryan Pagliano, the person who set up Clinton's private server and email apparatus, was just given imm

  "There was a mistake made in that 24 hours after the attack."That's the thoroughly unsatisfactory answer FBI Director Jim Comey gave on Tuesday when New York Congressman Jerry Nadler asked him why, a day after Apple had started providing FBI 24/7 help on its investigation into the December 2 terrorist attack in San Bernardino, the FBI nevertheless instructed killer Syed Rezwan Farook's employer, San Bernardino County, to change the password to his iCloud account.As Nadler described when&nbs

  It’s fun to watch the 2016 Republican presidential frontrunner pretend he gives a damn a policy. Donald Trump got lashed by Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio at the last Republican debate for the fact that he papers over his determined ignorance of policy issues with tough-sounding slogans that don’t actually mean anything. With another debate in the works for tonight, Trump is making a perfunctory effort to demonstrate that he actually does traffic in substance, which is why the Donald Trump

  “I'm so honored and pleased to have Mr. Trump's endorsement.” - Mitt Romney, 2012Mitt Romney inserted himself into the presidential campaign today. Like most establishment Republicans, Romney is panicking as the reality of a Trump-led GOP becomes impossible to ignore.

• Blowing up the GOP to stop Trump: Republicans exploring plots to sabotage him at convention that could leave party in ruins

  03-03-2016 19:30 via salon.com
  
  Republican insiders are scrambling to deny Donald Trump the nomination. Primary after primary, the Donald continues to dominate, piling up delegates along the way. One fashionable idea is to engineer a third-party option to peel away voters from Trump and give alienated Republicans an alternative choice. It's unlikely to have the intended effect (winning the White House in 2016), but the desire to stop Trump at all costs is understandable.Every time Trump dog-whistles to his nativist base, as he

  If you want insight into why Donald Trump, of all people, seems to have such great appeal to the conservative masses, the use of his two grown sons — and they are so alike that I had to double check that there are, in fact, two — as campaign surrogates tells quite a story.Trump's weird hair, loud New York accent, and tendency to wear baseball caps has obscured, somewhat, the cultural understanding that he's the ur-prep, and was the standard-bearer for the popped collar crowd in

Last night's "Closer Look" at Donald Trump's Super Tuesday was no exception.While Trump was Super Tuesday's obvious GOP winner, it can be argued that opponent Ted Cruz's win in Texas -- and, to a lesser extent, Oklahoma and Alaska -- revived the Cruz campaign, and made him the least worst choice to stop a Trump nomination.So it seems it's Trump v.

  Why has Donald Trump’s appeal come to be so different than that of the Republican Party and its longer-term leaders? The complex answer rests on the paucity of ideas and leadership skills on the part of the rest of the dwindling field of Republican presidential candidates—but it also includes a failure on the part of party leaders and pundits to understand the people they thought they were leading. They have equated past electoral support with philosophical alignment. We are seeing,

  Paramount Pictures seems to have no idea what to do with the new Tina Fey movie “Whiskey Tango Foxtrot,” which is understandable. This is a difficult film to describe, and it’s easier to list all the things it isn’t — for example, it isn’t a spoof or a satire or a farce or a rom-com — than defining what it is. In fact, “Whiskey Tango Foxtrot” is a surprisingly delicate creation, especially for a studio movie built around a famous TV comedian.
