Opinions P.M.
 
 
Did the Democratic and Republican Party narratives just flip?
Cartoon for May 20, 2016.
‘Weiner’ is a spectacular portrait of a political marriage
It's shocking that Anthony Weiner and Huma Abedin agreed to this project. But the result is one of the best campaign movies in years.
 
Fox News host Megyn Kelly lashes back at critics, weakly
Host says she didn't want the interview to be about her.
 
The law mandates rape exams — but the right training to conduct them is just as vital
Many victims aren't getting the care, or the proper evidence, they need.

Soon we’ll use science to make people more moral
"Moral enhancement" is only getting more sophisticated.
 
Say goodbye to the conservative watchdogs
Trump obliterates conservative influence.
 
Does Hillary want to be greedy for us?
Greed is good politics.
 
Forget what you’ve heard. Donald Trump isn’t really challenging conservative orthodoxy.
As his Supreme Court short list shows, conservatives can get whatever they want from him, because he just doesn't care.
 
 
The third-party candidate already out there
For those who cannot stomach Clinton or Trump.
 
On CNN, Trump spokeswoman made cable-news history for talking-point discipline
Spokeswoman turns the art of PR into parody.
 
Trump’s judges list creates more problems than it solves
Six reasons the list backfires.
 
Morning links: FBI confirms 2015 was an incredibly safe year for police officers
Plus: The other awful Clinton-backed crime law, mass release of Calif. prisoners didn't cause more crime, myths of the opioid epidemic.

Trump just accused Bill Clinton of ‘rape.’ Expect a lot more of this — from the whole GOP.
None of this is that surprising.
 
Sketchpad: Trump can’t help but show his high regard for women
He's courting them!
 
‘Hamilton’ tickets are out of reach. It’s time for a ‘Hamilton’ movie.
A great movie adaptation of "Hamilton" would make the groundbreaking musical accessible to a much broader audience.
