Opinions P.M.
 
 
Donald Trump is suddenly looking like a very weak autocrat
The pattern is becoming obvious.
James Comey’s behavior looks worse and worse
The sooner the FBI director faces the consequences for his colossal mistake the better.
 
The Trump brand was built on winning. So what happens when it starts to lose?
The "brash business mogul" slogan hasn't translated well from the campaign trail to the Oval Office.
 
The TPP lives — maybe
Could it rise from the dead with a new name and slightly altered provisions?

Congress doesn't give a 'damn' about the Trump scandal
Hillary Clinton's 'damn emails' seem rather quaint now.
 
The stupendously dishonest Tucker Carlson
An expertly executed ambush with a pinch of selective editing.
 
The GOP despicable three
There's no news about the Trump administration bad enough for these prominent Republicans to denounce the White House's actions.
 
Republicans in Congress just made it easier for mentally ill people to get guns
The gun lobby and its allies have almost run out of things to ask for. What's next?
 
 
How much is three decades of wrongful incarceration worth in Virginia?
The commonwealth comes up short.
 
Paul Ryan’s misplaced priorities
Border tax plan could sink the entire GOP agenda.
 
Where is the very first place anybody should have looked for a Russia-Trump connection?
Hiding in plain folder.
 
Can we start ignoring whatever Conway and Spicer say?
Separating the liars from the propagandists.

U.S. media saw the Trump-Trudeau summit as a bust. The Canadian press loved it.
Monday's summit reminded once more that Canada does not loom quite as large in the American attention span as Canadians expect.
 
Reality dawns: Obamacare might be here to stay
The GOP has no idea how to get to its mythical health-care nirvana.
 
History took a wrong turn with Trump's election, and now history is trying to back up on a crowded off-ramp
Is it too late? Say it's not too late!
