Will elites ever respect voters’ decisions on Brexit and Trump?

BREXIT: January 18, 2019 It was no coincidence that Donald Trump scheduled a trip to Britain to promote one of his golf courses in Scotland, on June 23, 2016. That was the day of the Brexit referendum in which 52 percent of the electorate —17.4 million voters, more than any party has ever won in a general election — voted for the UK to leave the European Union. Candidate Trump...
A stalemate as Trump goes factual, Democrats illogical

This Weeks Conservative Focus … Trump Speech The televised presidential address from the Oval Office, a staple of communication between the chief executive and the people in the second half of 20th century, has recently been in desuetude.

1919: January 4, 20191919: January 4, 2019 The hundredth anniversary of the Armistice that ended the fighting of World War I in Europe came and went with surprisingly little notice last Nov. 11. Commemoration was muted for a conflict that took the lives of some 15 to 19 million soldiers and civilians — estimates vary widely —...
As in Kipling’s day, military deployments needed to prevent unknowable threats
Michael Barone 12/28/2018 - 8:58pm
FOREIGN POLICY: December 28, 2018 The numbers are small, the terrain unfamiliar, the cast of characters chaotic and the clash of interest hard to decipher. Nevertheless, President Donald Trump’s sudden, perhaps impulsive decision to withdraw 2,000 American military personnel from northeastern Syria, as well as the resignation of Defense...
American fertility headed to all-time low
Michael Barone 12/23/2018 - 7:05pm
FERTILITY RATES: December 21, 2018 In 1957, 4.3 million babies were born in the United States. In 2017, 60 years later, the number was 3,853,472. That’s an 11 percent decline, in a nation whose population has nearly doubled over those six decades. And though there are a few days left in 2018, the number for this year is sure to be lower....
