Trump & The Post: Whose Side Is Mitt On? By Patrick J. Buchanan
If there is a more anti-Trump organ in the American establishment than The Washington Post, it does not readily come to mind.

The hundredth anniversary of the Armistice that ended the fighting of World War I in Europe came and went with surprisingly little notice last Nov. 11. Commemoration was muted for a conflict that took the lives of some 15 to 19 million soldiers and civilians -- estimates vary widely -- including, in just 19 months, more than 116,000 Americans.
As President Trump prepares to pull U.S. forces out of Syria, voters' beliefs that American political leaders put U.S. troops in danger too much is at its lowest level in more than five years.
After a good 2018, Americans are feeling pretty good about the year to come, though not quite as good as in years past.
When tracking President Trump’s job approval on a daily basis, people sometimes get so caught up in the day-to-day fluctuations that they miss the bigger picture. To look at the longer-term trends, Rasmussen Reports compiles the numbers on a full-month basis, and the results for Trump’s presidency can be seen in the graphics below.
Americans had faith at the beginning of 2018 that it would be a good year, and now they say it turned out to be an even better one than the last several.
For years, I've heard American leftists say Sweden is proof that socialism works, that it doesn't have to turn out as badly as the Soviet Union or Cuba or Venezuela did.
In the still of the last night of 2018, the silence of California Dems chilled the air and airwaves.
It’s officially a new year, but Americans aren’t heralding the holiday as one of the nation’s most important.
Thirty-nine percent (39%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey for the week ending December 27.
It’s almost time to ring in 2019, and most will be welcoming the new year at home.
President Trump continues to rattle the political establishment’s cage as his second year in office comes to a close.
Perceptions of how President Trump is dealing with the economy and foreign policy have fallen slightly as his second year in office comes to a close.
If Democrats are optimistic as 2019 begins, it is understandable.
The numbers are small, the terrain unfamiliar, the cast of characters chaotic and the clash of interest hard to decipher.
On the heels of President Trump’s planned removal of troops from Syria, voters are far less likely to think the United States needs to be more hands-on in the Middle East.
President Trump’s declaration that he is pulling U.S. troops from Syria has many worried about the nation’s future at the hands of the radical Islamic State Group (ISIS). He said earlier in the year that the “primary mission” in Syria was to get rid of ISIS and that America had “completed that task.” Voters agree we’re winning the war against ISIS, even if they still consider the terrorist organization a major threat.
The Trump administration is planning to roll back race-based Obama-era school discipline policies, arguing that they have led to more lax discipline overall and a rise in school violence. Americans overwhelmingly agree that a student’s racial background should not be a factor in discipline.
President Trump, intent on getting U.S. troops out of the Middle East, has angered hawkish members of both major political parties with his decision to withdraw from Syria. Voters tend to oppose his decision as well.
