NBC's Todd Asks Dem If He Can Use Exec Order to Block NC Bathroom Law

Pundit: Like Almost All GOPers, Trump Practices ‘Voodoo Economics’
How is Donald Trump “not a normal Republican”? Let New York magazine’s Jonathan Chait count the ways. Trump is “crudely ethno-nationalist,” wrote Chait in a Tuesday post, and he’s “personally ignorant and undisciplined in a manner that sets him apart not only from traditional Republicans but most human adults.” That’s pretty much it for Trump’s deviations from orthodoxy, according to Chait, who…

EWTN Pro-Life News Show to ‘Untangle Lies’ of Abortion Industry
