So bad, in fact, that "it's unclear whether Biden did well enough to survive to the Democratic convention." Throughout the debate, Hunter writes, Biden was "confused, lost, stumbling, mumbling and very angry." "Trump, in contrast, was refreshingly un-Trumpian. If you were a Democrat hoping to see him lose his mind or at least his cool, this was not your night." "By remaining presidential, if I even dare say that, Trump did what most viewers of CNN and MSNBC had been told he couldn't: He controlled himself." Overall, Trump did exactly what he needed to do, Hunter concludes. "Biden, aside from not falling down, didn't even come close." "It was shocking." Read the op-ed at TheHill.com. |

The contention by some in the Trump camp that the Hunter Biden case was somehow designed to lend credibility to the New York prosecution is beyond ludicrous. Sacrifice a son to gain advantage over a political opponent? Donald Trump might do that, but not Joe Biden. |

Understanding the choice offered by the Trump-led Republican Party isn't a matter of assessing what its leaders believe, or even cataloging what they say they believe. The question is simply what they will want, and, of course, who will be willing to provide it. |

Ukraine can still be saved through neutrality, even as hundreds of thousands of lives have been squandered by the failure to negotiate. The rest of the issues, including boundaries, can also be resolved through diplomacy. The killing can end now, before more disasters befall Ukraine and the world. |
