OPINION: The Late, Not-So-Great Mueller Investigation
It followed the Soviet style: ‘Show me the man, and I’ll show you the crime.’
Had Hillary Clinton just won the 2016 election, there would have been neither a Mueller investigation nor much talk of Russian collusion.
A losing Donald Trump would have slunk off to left-wing and Never-Trump ridicule and condemnation — and no investigation about collusion.

OPINION: De Blasio Is the Ferris Bueller of Democratic Presidential Candidates
Could the unimpressive mayor of New York City stumble to the front of the parade?
The most rational response to the news that New York City mayor Bill de Blasio wants to be president is to ask, “Of what?”
When informed that he wants to be president of the United States and not of, say, the local organic-hemp co-op, perhaps the next best response would be to take a page from the

Biden Survives, So Biden Wins
All night long, almost every candidate on stage aimed their attacks at Joe Biden. Early on, Kamala Harris referred to him as “Senator Biden,” a perhaps not-so-accidental demotion.

They need him not just as a hate object
