Newsweek (April 17)

2019/ 04/ 19 by jd in Global News

“The Mueller Report will be interesting for what it tells us about the evidence Congress will be considering in determining whether to impeach Donald J. Trump for obstruction of justice.” Most of “the offenses, including the felony campaign crimes we already know Trump has been accused of by federal prosecutors, are more serious than the offenses the Republicans impeached President Bill Clinton for not long ago.”

 

New York Times (May 7)

2017/ 05/ 09 by jd in Global News

Six months on, both Mr. Trump and Mrs. Clinton are still waging last year’s campaign, undermining their promises to help America heal. This is particularly offensive — and more than a little pathetic — coming from Mr. Trump, who after all has a nation to run.” Yet, he still has “no concrete accomplishments to boast about, and nothing meaningful to offer the working people to whom he promised jobs and a revived industrial America.”

 

USA Today (February 16)

2017/ 02/ 18 by jd in Global News

“Trump’s press conference was a spectacle for the ages.” It was “a rambling, defensive and at times angry performance by the leader of the free world.” During “one of the wildest presidential press conferences on record, Trump lashed out at the media, Hillary Clinton, the intelligence community, judges and Democrats — among many others.”

 

LA Times (January 1)

2017/ 01/ 02 by jd in Global News

Americans want Trump to succeed. In a recent “Pew poll, most voters who supported Hillary Clinton said they were willing to give Trump a chance. But he’s on thin ice. Even among his voters, Trump’s honeymoon could turn out to be short.”

 

Wall Street Journal (November 9)

2016/ 11/ 10 by jd in Global News

“Donald J. Trump’s unlikely defeat of Hillary Clinton is a political earthquake of a kind that rarely disturbs American politics.” The President-Elect “will now need to pick smart advisers and show generosity in victory” as he “lacks political experience” and his “convictions on public policy are especially elusive.” He has “a chance to succeed if he follows through on his pledge to prioritize the economic growth that creates jobs and lifts incomes for all Americans.” He will need to “govern differently than he campaigned.” He will need to “discover a more optimistic and inclusive politics. Or so we can hope, if only for comity and the good of the country.”

 

The Week (October 20)

2016/ 10/ 22 by jd in Global News

“Hillary Clinton finished Donald Trump in the final debate of the presidential election…. There’s no other conclusion. We are now playing out the string. And the only question left after the debate is whether Trump and his hard-core supporters will accept his defeat.”

 

Bloomberg (October 19)

2016/ 10/ 21 by jd in Global News

Donald Trump entered the third and final debate with Hillary Clinton “far behind in the polls — further than any candidate has been able to make up with this little time before the election. And then the Republican nominee lost the debate, as he lost the previous two.”

 

Washington Post (September 27)

2016/ 09/ 29 by jd in Global News

“The global marketplace may tell the larger story” about the presidential debate. “As the evening concluded, thanks to Clinton’s obvious dominance, as well as her assertion that a Clinton presidency would honor U.S. commitments abroad, the Asian markets recovered, the Mexico peso rallied, and Dow futures added 100 points.”

 

CNN (September 25)

2016/ 09/ 27 by jd in Global News

“On the weekend leading up to 2016’s first presidential debate, four news organizations came to a similar and sweeping conclusion: Donald Trump lies more often than Hillary Clinton.” Trump was found to lie nearly once every 3 minutes.

 

Los Angeles Times (September 23)

2016/ 09/ 26 by jd in Global News

“Hillary Clinton would make a sober, smart and pragmatic president. Donald Trump would be a catastrophe.” Electing the first female U.S.  president “would surely be as exhilarating as it is long overdue….  But that’s not the chief reason to vote for her. She deserves America’s support because she is the overwhelmingly better candidate.”
